New night vision goggle gain definition

Author(s)
Vyacheslav B. Podobedov, George P. Eppeldauer, Thomas C. Larason
A new definition is proposed for the calibration of Night Vision Goggle (NVG) gains. This definition is based on the measurement of radiometric input and output

Electro-thermal Simulation of 1200 V 4H-SiC MOSFET Short-Circuit SOA

Author(s)
Tam H. Duong, Jose M. Ortiz, David W. Berning, Allen R. Hefner Jr., Sei-Hyung Ryu, John W. Palmour
The purpose of this paper is to introduce a dynamic electro-thermal simulation and analysis approach for device design and short-circuit safe-operating-area

SHREC'15: Range Scans based 3D Shape Retrieval

Author(s)
Afzal A. Godil
The objective of the SHREC'15 Range Scans based 3D Shape Retrieval track is to evaluate algorithms that match range scans of real objects to complete 3D mesh

Performance Measurement of Mobile Manipulators

Author(s)
Roger V. Bostelman, Tsai Hong Hong, Jeremy A. Marvel
This paper describes a concept for measuring the reproducible performance of mobile manipulators to be used for assembly or other similar tasks. An AGV with an

Measuring collected gas with microwave and acoustic resonances

Author(s)
Keith A. Gillis, James W. Schmidt, Michael R. Moldover, James B. Mehl
With calibrations of large flow meters in mind, we established the feasibility of determining the mass M of argon gas contained within a 0.3 m 3 commercially

Community Resilience of the Built Environment

Author(s)
Therese P. McAllister
Buildings, facilities, and infrastructure systems play a key role in the life of a community by supporting housing, business, government, industry, and other

Design and Capabilities of NISTs Scale-Model Smokestack Simulator (SMSS)

Author(s)
Aaron N. Johnson, Joey T. Boyd, Eric Harman, Mohammad M. Khalil, Jacob E. Ricker, Christopher J. Crowley, Rodney A. Bryant, Iosif I. Shinder
The amount of CO 2 emitted from a coal-fired power plant (CFPP) is measured by continuous emissions monitoring systems (CEMS) permanently installed in the

Micro-Flow Calibration Facility at NIST

Author(s)
James W. Schmidt, John D. Wright
The Fluid Metrology Group (FMG) at NIST is developing a primary, dynamic gravimetric liquid flow standard for use in the range 1 mL/min to 100 nL/min (and

Thermal Effects on Critical Flow Venturis

Author(s)
John D. Wright, Aaron N. Johnson, Michael R. Moldover, Woong Kang, Liang Zhang
Critical flow venturis (CFVs) are widely used as working and transfer standards for gas flow measurement because of their long-term calibration stability (5 (e
