Lattice Sphere Decoding for Data Transmission Systems with Special Channel Matrices

This paper presents the effects of condition number ( \(\tau \) ) in communication system performance. It has been shown that a small condition number ( \(\tau \) ) results a better performance. The proposed scheme is using special kind of matrices with Lattice Sphere Decoding (LSD) technique for Block Data Transmission Systems (BDTS). Hankel and Toeplitz matrices are used separately as a channel matrix (H) while circulant matrix is used in the previous works. The proposed scheme reduced the condition number ( \(\tau \) ) and, therefore, improve the system performance. As a result; LSD-based BDTS with Toeplitz/Hankel matrix outperforms the LSD-based BDTS with circulant matrix. Complexity analysis is also done which based on lattice dimension and initial radius selection.

Formulation of fumed silica grease from waste transformer oil as base oil

This study aimed to formulate fumed silica (FS) grease using waste transformer oil (WTO) and to investigate the grease properties. Various unexplored application of the reused WTO due to its reusable characteristic. WTO and fresh transformer oil (ITO) were used as grease base fluid and the properties of oil and grease were evaluated using ASTM International standards and SKF’s Grease Test Kit. The oil and grease chemical compound were determined using Fourier Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy at wavenumber of 500–4000?cm^?1. It was found that WTO have high viscosity index of 96 and low moisture content of 0.05% after pre-treatment than ITO. FS greases with and without MoS₂ were classified as NLGI 2 greases when FS content was 8%. Grease formulated with MoS₂ shows better performances in term of corrosiveness, oil bleed within ?15% to +15%, oil separation less than 4%, and dropping point of >300?°C. FTIR results shows no significant different between ITO and WTO, and between all formulated greases. Based on the findings, it was concluded that WTO can be utilized as an alternative base oil in grease formulation due to the good properties exhibited by the formulated WTO-based FS grease blended with MoS₂.     

The Nanometer-Sized Eutectic Structure of Si/CrSi<Subscript>2</Subscript> Thermoelectric Materials Fabricated by Rapid Solidification

Nanostructuring is known to be an effective method to improve thermoelectric performance but, generally, it requires complex procedures and much labor. In the present study, self-assembled nanometer-sized composite structures of silicon (Si) and chromium disilicide (CrSi₂) were easily fabricated by the rapid solidification of a melt with a eutectic composition. Ribbon-like samples were obtained with a dominant nanostructure of fine aligned lamellae with a spacing range of 20–35 nm. The thermoelectric power factor of the ribbon was observed to be 1.2 mW/mK² at room temperature and reached 3.0 mW/mK² at 773 K. The thermal conductivity was 65% lower than that of a bulk eutectic sample. The results suggest that this method is promising for fabricating an effective nanostructure for thermoelectric performance.     

Targeted Delivery of Anesthetic Agents to Bone Tissues using Conductive Microneedles Enhanced Iontophoresis for Painless Dental Anesthesia

Pain management during dental procedures is a cornerstone for successful daily practice. In current practice, the traditional needle and syringe injection is used to administer local anesthesia. However, the appearance of long needles and the pain associated with it often leads to dental anxiety deterring timely interventions. Microneedles (MNs) have emerged as a minimally invasive alternative to hypodermic needles and shown to be effective in transdermal drug delivery applications. In this article, the potential use of MNs for local anesthesia delivery in dentistry is explored. The development of a novel conductive MN array that can be used in combination with iontophoresis technique to achieve drug penetration through the oral mucosa and the underlying bone tissue is presented. The conductive MN array plays a dual-role, creating micro-conduits and lowering the resistance of the oral mucosa. The reduced tissue resistance further enhances the application of a low-voltage current that is able to direct and accelerate the drug molecules to target the sensory nerves supplying teeth. The successful delivery of lidocaine using this new strategy in a clinically relevant rabbit incisor model is shown to be as effective as the current gold standard.
