A new method is presented to determine the time-base errors of sampling instruments. The method does not require a model for the time-base error and, thus
Accurate measurement of high voltage (hv) impulse waveforms is of critical importance in the testing of hv apparatus and for fundamental insulation studies
The adhesive strength of a composite resin to dentin is greatly influenced by the degree of cure of the bonding agent. Flouorescent probes have often been used

Efficient data combination over wide-area networks is hard as wide-area networks have large variations in available network bandwidth. In this paper, we examine
Multimedia desktop conferencing systems are gaining momentum and increasingly becoming a reality. In these systems, besides using audio, video and multi-user
Our 30th Joint Meeting provides an opportunity to reflect on our work and accomplishments and establish our view for the future of our U.S./Japan Panel on Wind
Prompted by the widespread damage to welded beam-to-column connections as a result of the 1994 Northridge earthquake, the National Institute of Standards and
The specific architecture of an A/D converter influences the code probability distributions that result from random input noise. In particular, the ouput codes
Display metrology is discussed as applied to flat panel displays (FPDs). Topics include the importance of properset up, expected measurement uncertainty vs

Characterization of the viscoelastic and aging responses of poly [ethylene naphthalate] [PEN] is of increasing interest as this material begins to see greater
A nonlinear constitutive equation based on the model of Bernstein, Kearsley and Zapas (BKZ) is developed by noting that the BKZ model has a structure that looks
Thin-film thermocouples have been found useful in numerous applications ranging from thermal convertors, heat flux gages, and thermopiles to surface temperature
This work focuses on obtaining data to perform realistic finite element models of residual stresses in composite parts made of toughened epoxy thermosets. The
NIST is in the process of developing a new Standard Reference Material that replaces the previous SRM 1490 Nonlinear Fluid Standard. The purpose of the material
