SED has had a long and extensive collaboration with the Materials Measurement Laboratory in working toward the certification of standard reference materials
This project aims to improve models linking the microscale, grain-level deformation properties, and the macroscopic, continuum deformation properties. The
This project involves the measurement of surface roughness, the best statistical way to represent the geometry of roughened surfaces, and research into tying
Develop a proxy model to predict enhancement of C in atmospheric CO 2 due to fossil fuel emissions (C ff) based on inexpensive measurements of anthropogenic
Project goal is to develop a fully-instrumented version of the tension-compression test, to enable measurement of the Bauschinger Effect in sheet metal, and to
Industry needs thermodynamic and kinetic data for the development of new materials for sustainable energy applications; expanded and new databases are needed
Quantum chemical calculations have proven to be a reliable tool for the prediction of thermodynamics quantities, particularly for smaller organic species
Measurements of pressures exerted by wind on buildings, as are made in wind-tunnel tests involving model buildings instrumented with pressure taps, are an
Ultra-dense networks will arise not only from an expanded user base and shorter links, but also from an enriched topology, including different technologies and
Theory and simulation are used to advance our understanding of pure and multicomponent fluids confined in tight spaces, such as the pores of a zeolite, metal
