Abstract

This paper explores how research methodologies can be used to resolve organizational issues. Using Starbucks as the company of focus, this paper discusses the qualities of qualitative and quantitative research and how they can be used for investigation and analysis in an organizational setting. It is hypothesized, for instance, that the decline in Starbucks’ sales as well as the poor performance of some of its stores is due to poor customer service. The concept of customer service, however, is too abstract to measure directly. However, this hypothesis can be determined using qualitative research methods as opposed to the quantitative ...

Three phase induction motors

Introduction The three-phase induction machine is the most widely used among the rotating machines. An induction machine offers an almost constant speed within its normal operating range when operated off a constant-voltage, constant-frequency, and with the electric power source. The cost of purchasing these machines is very low, and they require little maintenance. However, speed control is difficult and very expensive. Therefore, the rotor current of the three phase induction motors is not induced by electrical connections, but rather the rotation of magnetic field.
