Tailings Dam Design / Conception des Barrages de Stériles Miniers Technology Update / Mise à Jour des Technologies Tailings are produced from the processing of mineral ores and are commonly stored within embankment dams. The design of the dams requires application of sound engineering principles and an understanding of the properties of the tailings. This Bulletin provides a framework for classifying different types of tailings ranging from ultra-fine to coarse based on their geotechnical properties and provides typical geotechnical parameters for the different tailings types. Technologies for dewatering tailings to reduce the risk of storage continue to be developed and the different technologies from thickening to filtration and re-application of old technologies are presented to illustrate the options available and where appropriate typical in situ properties. This bulletin is directed towards a wide audience of stakeholders: designers owners regulators communities and various organizations and provides a reference for communicating tailings properties and the benefits and limitations of technologies. All mining operations and thereby tailings operations are unique. There is no one-solution-fits-all. Tailings dam designs need to account for site-specific conditions such as climate physiography geochemistry geomorphology seismology mining processes environment and community setting with the application of technologies playing an important role in developing safe sustainable tailings facilities. Les stériles miniers sont produits à partir du traitement des minerais et sont généralement stockés derrière des barrages en remblai. La conception des barrages nécessite l'application de principes d'ingénierie solides et une compréhension des propriétés des résidus. Ce bulletin fournit un cadre pour classer différents types de résidus allant de l'ultra-fin au grossier en fonction de leurs propriétés géotechniques et propose des paramètres géotechniques typiques pour les différentes sortes de résidus. Les technologies d'assèchement des résidus pour réduire le risque de stockage continuent à être développées ; les différentes technologies de l'épaississement à la filtration en passant par l’application des anciennes technologies sont présentées pour illustrer les options disponibles et le cas échéant les propriétés in situ typiques. Ce bulletin s'adresse à un large public d'intervenants : concepteurs propriétaires régulateurs communautés et organisations diverses et fournit une référence pour communiquer les propriétés des résidus et les avantages et les limites des technologies. Toutes les opérations minières et par conséquent les traitements des résidus sont uniques. Il n'y a pas de solution unique pour tous. La conception des barrages de résidus doit tenir compte des conditions propres au site telles que le climat la physiographie la géochimie la géomorphologie la sismologie les processus miniers l'environnement et le milieu communautaire l'application de technologies jouant un rôle important dans le développement de parcs à résidus sûrs et durables. | Tailings Dam Design / Conception des Barrages de Stériles Miniers Technology Update / Mise à Jour des Technologies GBP 79.99 1

VLSI Architectures for Modern Error-Correcting Codes Error-correcting codes are ubiquitous. They are adopted in almost every modern digital communication and storage system such as wireless communications optical communications Flash memories computer hard drives sensor networks and deep-space probing. New-generation and emerging applications demand codes with better error-correcting capability. On the other hand the design and implementation of those high-gain error-correcting codes pose many challenges. They usually involve complex mathematical computations and mapping them directly to hardware often leads to very high complexity. VLSI Architectures for Modern Error-Correcting Codes serves as a bridge connecting advancements in coding theory to practical hardware implementations. Instead of focusing on circuit-level design techniques the book highlights integrated algorithmic and architectural transformations that lead to great improvements on throughput silicon area requirement and/or power consumption in the hardware implementation. The goal of this book is to provide a comprehensive and systematic review of available techniques and architectures so that they can be easily followed by system and hardware designers to develop en/decoder implementations that meet error-correcting performance and cost requirements. This book can be also used as a reference for graduate-level courses on VLSI design and error-correcting coding. Particular emphases are placed on hard- and soft-decision Reed-Solomon (RS) and Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) codes and binary and non-binary low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. These codes are among the best candidates for modern and emerging applications due to their good error-correcting performance and lower implementation complexity compared to other codes. To help explain the computations and en/decoder architectures many examples and case studies are included. More importantly discussions are provided on the advantages and drawbacks of different implementation approaches and architectures. GBP 52.99 1
