Performance of optical OFDM systems using new PAPR reduction approach
(EBSCO Publishing., 2012-03)
The major drawback of optical orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDM) system is their inherent intensity noise and peak average power ratio (PAPR). We introduce a new direct detection receiver based on PAPR ...
Modelling and simulation of a 1.6 Tb/s optical system based on multi-diagonal code and optical code-division multiple-access
(Institute of Physical Optics, 2012)
n this paper we have modelled and simulated a 1.6 Tb/s (100×16 Gb/s) optical system based on spectral amplitude coding for the optical code-division multiple- access (SAC-OCDMA) scheme. In order to reduce the effect of ...
Mechanical properties and wear behavior of brake pads produced from palm slag
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
Brake pads are important safety devices in vehicles. An effort to avoid the use of asbestos in brake pads has led to the development of asbestos-free brake pads that incorporate various organic and inorganic fillers. Palm ...
Reviews on the properties of aggregates made with or without geopolymerisation method
(Scientific.Net/Trans Tech Publications, 2012-12)
Aggregates are popular for use in concrete and lightweight concrete applications. Recent research shows that the by-product materials such as fly ash can be used as raw material in producing aggregates and lightweight ...
Mechanical properties of Sn-0.7Cu/Si 3N 4 lead-free composite solder
(Elsevier B.V., 2012-10)
The use of reinforcing high performance ceramic particulates in monolithic lead-free solder is one way to improve the service temperature and mechanical behavior of a solder joint. In this study, various compositions of ...
Fly ash-based geopolymer lightweight concrete using foaming agent
(MDPI, Basel, Switzerland., 2012-06)
In this paper, we report the results of our investigation on the possibility of producing foam concrete by using a geopolymer system. Class C fly ash was mixed with an alkaline activator solution (a mixture of sodium ...
Characterization of LUSI mud volcano as geopolymer raw material
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
The mud of mud volcano samples were collected from an eruption site named 'LUSI' (Lumpur "mud" -Sidoarjo), East Java, Indonesia for characterization. Analysis showed that, the major constituents of mud are SiO 2 and Al 2O ...
Reviews on the Geopolymer materials for coating application
(Scientific.Net, 2012-12)
The application of geopolymer has been expand in many areas where before this it only used for the production of cement and concrete. One of the new applications of geopolymer is for coating. Metakaolin, fly ash and ...
Correlation between Na 2SiO 3/NaOH ratio and fly ash/alkaline activator ratio to the strength of geopolymer
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
Geopolymer requires an alkaline activator to induce it pozzolanic property and to accelerate the geopolymerisation process. The geopolymerisation process occurs due to the mixing of fly ash, sodium silicate and sodium ...
Aluminium - Polymer abs product
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012)
Material used for aluminium product usually made of aluminium scrap. Currently, the price of aluminium scrap is increase. It is necessary to minimize the cost of production by reducing the weight of the aluminium product ...
