The theory of Multiuser Detection (MUD) for DS-CDMA is studied. A brief description of optimal MUD is given and some low complexity sub optimal implementations are described. This is followed by a short note on Blind Multiuser detection. Conclusions are drawn from theoretical and simulation results. Towards the end, a new low complexity scheme for MUD in DS-CMDA is proposed. Simulation results ...

The failure of the Ajka red mud depository in October 2010 led to the largest single release of red mud into the surface water environment. This study provides a comparative assessment of stream sediment quality in the Torna-Marcal-Rába catchment between post-disaster surveys (2010) and follow up surveys at an identical suite of 21 locations in 2013. The signature of red mud apparent in initial...

The most important solution in the new sodium chromate production process implemented in Alwernia Chemical Works is in-process recycling of chromic mud. This allows lessening the hazard to the natural environment resulting from released chromic waste. It also involves economical advantages. This paper presents studies on the optimisation of this process using of a fuzzy logic method. The influe...

.\BSTR.\ CT A brief summary of the limited literature devoted to mud balls centers around nomenclature, the ideas regarding the origin of mud balls, and the factors limiting their size. A report is made of a combined field and laboratory study in which an investigaticn of the size which mud balls may attain leads to conclusions that differ from those in the literature; findings are presented wh...

an improved model of mud dispersion has been introduced in this work. the advantages of this model consist of a new analytical correlation for dispersivity by using resistivity log data and using a new aspect of capacitance dispersion model. mathematical formulations were expressed, solved by numerical model taking advantage of actual log and formation data. achieved results yielded reasonable ...

Due to its alkalinity, red mud produced by the Bayer process may affect both the environment and human health. For this reason, its further utilization instead of disposal is of great importance. Numerous methods have already been studied for hydrometallurgical treatment of red mud, especially for the recovery of various metallic components such as iron, aluminum, titanium or rare earth element...

Goals include the development of models and methods that explain observed material and acoustic properties of different physical types of shallow-ocean mud sediments. Other goals are to assess prior data relating to the acoustic properties of mud and to provide guidance in the development and interpretation of experiments. A related goal is to construct models that will guide inversion techniqu...

optimization of drilling fluid parameters such as mud weight, salt concentration, and temperature is essential to alleviate instability problems during drilling through shale sections. the selection of suitable mud parameters can benefit from analyses that consider significant instability processes involved in shale-drilling–fluid interactions. this paper describes the development of analytical...

A batch experiment was conducted to compare the Cu scavenging capacity between two different red mud types: the first one was a highly basic red mud derived from a combined sintering and Bayer process, and the second one was a seawater-neutralized red mud derived from the Bayer process. The first red mud contained substantial amounts of CaCO3, which, in combination with the high OH activity, fa...
