To evaluate whether natural attenuation can achieve legal standards for groundwater cleanup, the fate of contaminants in the groundwater environment has to be well understood. In what direction do the ...

Using coronary CT angiography to assess plaque burden—and specifically the burden of “low-attenuation” plaque—in patients presenting with chest pain can help predict the risk of future myocardial ...

Traditional flood mitigation techniques, like dams, are not effective against the increased flooding that climate change will bring, University of Iowa research has found. A study by UI graduate ...

Pressure waves propagating through bubble-containing liquids in tubes experience considerable attenuation. Researchers have now derived an equation describing this phenomenon, demonstrating that ...

Measuring attenuation in a fiber-optic cable is a vital ingredient to obtaining the maximum performance from a system designs. But, for designers, just starting to work in the fiber-optic design space ...

This rule of thumb enables us to estimate how much attenuation would be in the loss budget of a serial channel. Spoiler summary:With no equalization, about -10 dB at the Nyquist. With just CTLE, about ...

The weakening of RF energy from an RFID tag or reader. The energy emitted by the reader naturally decreases with distance. The rate of decrease is proportional to the inverse square of the distance.
