Measuring the dissimilarity between non-rigid objects is a challenging problem in 3D shape retrieval. One potential solution is to construct the models 3D...
The fundamental load combination requirements for strength design (or load and resistance factor design) appearing in Section 2.3 of ASCE Standard 7-10 advance...
A fast nonlinear dynamic analysis algorithm based on modal superposition of structural response incorporating both material and geometric nonlinearities is...
The production capacity of corn ethanol as a transportation fuel is experiencing rapid growth in the United States. The demand is driven by increased prices of...

In this paper, we compare the results of five 3D interest point detection techniques to the interest points marked by human subjects. This comparison is used to...
In this paper we describe a new formulation for the 3D salient local features based on the voxel grid inspired by the Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT)...
When an emergency occurs, it is not always sufficient to simply initiate alarm bells. Individuals may not know what the alarm bell means and, in turn, respond...
This paper describes ongoing efforts to provide high quality calibration of accelerometers by NIST for military and civilian labs. Traditionally the approach is...
There are several core areas that are covered by the NIST microwave metrology services. These include thermal noise, power, scattering-parameters (s-parameters)...
High fuel costs, the need to secure supply chains, and environmental concerns, have all led to an increasing interest in nonpetroleum sources such as natural...
Biodiesel fuel is an alternative fuel that can be derived from a number of renewable feedstocks including plant and vegetable oils, algae, animal fats, waste...
We investigate a new kind of PVOH physical gel in which the volatile water is replaced with a non-volatile ionic liquid (IL). High melting IL containing Br-...

We report on optics contamination rates induced by exposure to broad-bandwidth, high-intensity EUV radiation peaked near 8 nm in a new beamline at the NIST...
Contributions to line edge roughness (LER) from extreme ultraviolet (EUV) masks have recently been shown to be an issue of concern for both the accuracy of...
This presentation describes the current state of knowledge of the thermodynamic properties of pure carbon dioxide and of CO2-rich mixtures. It includes a...
