Application of an empirical transport model to simulate retention of nanocrystalline titanium dioxide in sand columns by Choy, Christine Chin

“…Most of the nanoparticles remained in the sand columns, with an increasing then decreasing retained solids pattern. Application of a one-dimensional advection–dispersion flow model, that included two empirical kinetic terms to account for particle retention in the porous media, produced data fits that followed the general trend of the data, but did not truly capture the concentration maxima in the data sets. …”

Clustered Random Beamforming and Hierarchical Modulation for Large Multi-User MIMO Downlinks by Hamidreza Khakzad (23073979)

“…Additionally, we discuss the selection of the optimal HM parameter based on predefined performance requirements, illustrated through a sample case. Simulation results indicate that the proposed hierarchical random beamforming (HRBF) scheme is highly promising for multi-user massive MIMO downlink systems, particularly in the context of 5G New Radio (NR) and future 6G networks and beyond.…”
