Rheological evaluation of shortand long-term performance for warm mix asphalt (WMA) binders
(
Kluwer Academic Publishers
, 2016 , Article)
Warm-mix asphalt (WMA) additives are environmentally friendly and cost-effective products that lower the viscosity of bituminous binders to allow reduction of mixing and compaction temperatures in asphalt mix production. ...
Power control and RB allocation for LTE uplink
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
According to 3GPP standards, the Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) was adopted for Uplink transmission in LTE networks. As multiple mobiles may have access to neighboring base stations simultaneously, ...

(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Climate change attracted widespread attention to shift towards environmentally friendly energy sources such as photovoltaics. Considering the facts that there are large numbers of DC loads that are used in today's buildings, ...
Theoretical investigation on the effect of individual stage-gain selection on the 3-dB bandwidth of three-op-Amp difference amplifiers
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The differential gain of a three-op-Amp difference amplifier is determined by the product of the gain values of its two stages. Usually, the total desired differential gain is assigned to the first stage while the gain of ...
