Improved Nozzle Manifold for Gas Flow Calibrations

Author(s)
Aaron N. Johnson, Chunhui Li, John D. Wright, Gina M. Kline, Christopher J. Crowley
We developed a new nozzle manifold that reduced the uncertainty of flow calibrations from 0.09 % to as low as 0.074 % for flows of air up to 0.84 kg/s (43 000 L

Verification and Validation Process of a Fire Model

Author(s)
Kevin B. McGrattan, Simo A. Hostikka
Fire simulation tools are used frequently in the fire safety assessment of nuclear and other industrial installations. They are also used in the context of

A New Convexity Measurement for 3D Meshes

Author(s)
Afzal A. Godil, Zhouhui Lian
This paper presents a novel convexity measurement for 3D meshes. The new convexity measure is calculated by minimizing the ratio of the summed area of valid

Technology Readiness Levels for Randomized Bin Picking

Author(s)
Jeremy A. Marvel, Roger D. Eastman, Geraldine S. Cheok, Kamel S. Saidi, Tsai Hong Hong, Elena R. Messina
A proposal for the utilization of Technology Readiness Levels to the application of unstructured bin picking is discussed. A special session was held during the

Physical Model for Random Telegraph Noise Amplitudes and Implications

Author(s)
Richard G. Southwick, Kin P. Cheung, Jason P. Campbell, Serghei Drozdov, Jason T. Ryan, John S. Suehle, Anthony Oates
Random Telegraph Noise (RTN) has been shown to surpass random dopant fluctuations as a cause for decananometer device variability, through the measurement of a

Channel Length-Dependent Series Resistance?

Author(s)
Jason P. Campbell, Kin P. Cheung, Serghei Drozdov, Richard G. Southwick, Jason T. Ryan, Tony Oates, John S. Suehle
A recently developed series resistance (RSD) extraction procedure from a single nanoscale device is shown to be highly robust. Despite these virtues, the

Detection of Cutting Phenomena Using Sensor Fusion

Author(s)
John A. Slotwinski, Gregory W. Vogl, Robert W. Ivester, Ian Younker
This paper presents an investigation of the application of a suite of sensors for simultaneous in-situ measurements of machining processes. While not every

Enabling Machining Vision Using STEP-NC

Author(s)
Martin Hardwick, Frederick M. Proctor, David Loffredo, Sid Venkatesh
STEP-NC is a new data format for manufacturing control. One of its applications is to enable integrated on machine measurement of machining processes using

Synthesis of Manufacturing and Facility Data for Sustainability Analysis

Author(s)
John L. Michaloski, Guodong Shao, Swee K. Leong, Frank H. Riddick, Jonatan Berglund, Jorge Arinez, Stephan Biller
This paper discusses data synthesis of production and facility knowledge for sustainability analysis by applying the ISA 95 "Activity Models of Manufacturing
