We describe a Gröbner basis of relations among conditional probabilities in a discrete probability space, with any set of conditioned-upon events. They may be specialized to the partially-observed random variable case, the purely conditional case, and other special cases. We also investigate the connection to generalized permutohedra and describe a “conditional probability simplex.” 1 Relations...

A pipelined ADC incorporates a precharged resistor-ladder DAC in a multi-bit front-end, achieving fast settling and allowing calibrationof both dynamic and static gain errors. Using simple differential pairs with a gain of 5 as op amps and realized in 65-nm CMOS technology, the 10-bit ADC consumes 36 mW at a sampling rate of 1 GHz and exhibits an SNDR of 52.7 dB at an input frequency of 490 MHz.

The present paper Performance improvement in high speed low power out put Buffer amplifier for large –LCD applications. The proposed buffer achieves high-speed driving performance while drawing a low quiescent current during static operation. The circuit offers enhanced slewing capabilities with limited power consumption by exploiting a slew detector which monitors the output voltage of the inp...

We present a unified framework for understanding the compaction of colloidal gels under their own weight. The dynamics of the collapse are determined by the value of the gravitational stress sigma(g), as compared to the yield stress sigma(Y) of the network. For sigma(g)sigma(Y), th...

This article deals with experimental and theoretical studies of the sedimentation of polydisperse agarose beads with broad particle size distributions. A light-extinction principle was used to measure the variation of solid concentration in the suspension with time and settling distance. Di4erent experimental conditions have been used to show the in5uence of solid concentration and liquid densi...

Design of primary settling tank has historically been done more empirically than rationally. The main reason for this is a lack of understanding of what pollutants primary settling tank are capable of removing. Inlets should be designed to dissipate the kinetic energy or velocity head of the mixed liquor. They should be able to distribute the flow equally in vertical and horizontal directions. ...

In one space dimension, the phenomenological theory of sedimentation predicts the sedimentation–consolidation behavior of a flocculated suspension in dependence of two constitutive functions describing its material behavior, the solids flux density (or hindered settling function) and the solid effective stress. These functions are assumed to depend only on the local volumetric solids concentrat...

An analytical solution of the equilibrium distribution of suspended sediment concentrations (SSC) in an estuary along the longitudinal axis is extended to include variable width. A turbidity maximum is formed at the convergence of fluxes from freshwater discharge and (vertically well mixed) salinity gradients. Simple scaling relationships control the longitudinal distribution of SSC and depend ...
