In multi-electrode arrays (MEAs), for electrical recording and electrical stimulation, high voltage (HV) switches are employed to build an analog multiplexer to conduct either a HV stimulation signal from the pulse generator circuit to an electrode or a low-voltage noise-sensitive signal from the electrode to a recording stage. In this brief,...

Implementation of the DAC is usually the bottleneck in designing a SAR ADC. Here an innovative DAC-less SAR (DLSAR) ADC architecture is presented which alleviates some drawbacks of the conventional SAR counterpart. The proposed DLSAR binary search algorithm is comprised of two arithmetic operations of division-by-two and subtraction to...

This paper reports on a predictive analog-todigital converter (ADC). The proposed ADC employs a linear predictive filter to prepare a prediction for the current sample based on the values of the previous digital codes. This leads to significant reduction in the mean bit cycle of the converter. It is shown in this work that this idea is...

Global warming has become an increasing challenge due to the impact of human activities on the environment. In this regard, university campuses with various activities and departments have a great impact on the environment. Ecological Footprint Analysis (EFA) is a natural resource depletion assessment tool, with a high level of accuracy, that...

In many developing countries, the rapid growth of town and cities has generated a rising levels of waste and illegal dumps have become a serious issue. The booming construction industry in Mongolia has resulted in the production of massive amounts of CDW which is one of the largest waste streams. In Ulaanbaatar (UB) and other cities in Mongolia,...

Production of waste materials, via industrial and human activities, creates big environmental and economic problems but also opportunities to recover valuable resources. EU28 currently generates 461 million tons per year of ever more complex Construction and Demolition Waste (CDW) with average recycling rates of around 46%. There is still a...

Abstract only. - After a decade of intensive research into the recycling of End-of-Life (EOL) concrete into high-grade new concrete, largely supported by funding from the European Commission, it appears that a circular economy for concrete is techno-economically feasible. A collection of advanced technologies, in particular smart demolition for...

The C2CA concrete recycling process consists of a combination of smart demolition, gentle grinding of the crushed concrete in an autogenous mill, and a novel dry classification technology called ADR to remove the fines. The` main factors in the C2CA process which influence the properties of Recycled Aggregates or Recycled Aggregate Concrete (RAC...

Ninety five percent of the construction and demolition waste is recycled in the Netherlands. Most of it is used for low value applications such as road base materials; the use of secondary material in buildings is still less than 3%7. In order to recover waste for higher value applications, enhancing selective demolition and waste management...

The ever-increasing interest on sustainable raw materials has urged the quest for recycled materials that can be used as a partial or total replacement of fine fractions in the production of concrete. This paper demonstrates a modelling study of recycled concrete waste fines and the possibility of turning them into active constituents for the...

Phase-domain Analog-to-Digital Converters (Ph-ADCs) have been considered for power-efficient implementation of body-area network transceivers employing phase demodulation. Conventional implementations of the Ph-ADCs, which work based on a full-flash zero-crossing algorithm, use linear resistive/current combiners to determine the thermometer...

One of the massive by-products of concrete to concrete recycling is the crushed concrete fines, that is often 0 - 4mm. Although the construction sector is to some extent familiar with the utilization of the recycled coarse fraction (>4 mm), at present there is no high-quality application for fines due to its moisturized and contaminated...

One of the main challenging problems associated with the use of Recycled Aggregates (RA) is the level of mixed contaminants. For utilizing RA in high-grade applications, it is essential to monitor and minimise the content of the pollutants. To this extent the C2CA concrete recycling process investigates a combination of smart demolition,...
