A number of indentations were made in 70:30 brass specimens. The resulting surface disturbance was analyzed using a stylus-based 3D topography measuring...
Standard Reference Material 484 is an artifact for calibration the magnification scale of a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) within the range of 1000X to...
Using a computer-controlled resonant-bar apparatus at frequencies near 5 kHz, we determined the temperature-dependent (86-732 K) Young's modulus of a ceramic...
To test their ability to fight high-rise fires, the Louisville Fire Department had to simulate one. And to do that, they needed the help of the National...

We have measured at low temperatures the current through a submicrometer superconducting island connected to nornal metal leads by ultrasmall tunnel junctions...
This paper investigates the influence of quantization on 3D surface characterization by carrying out an analysis of surface parameter changes on a range of real...
Translational tables now form a vital pan in three-dimensional surface topography systems. In some systems typically. one translational table is used to provide...

We investigate the properties of angular-momentum states which yield high sensitivity to rotation. We discuss the application of these "squeezed-spin" or...
The nonadiabatic nature of low-speed combustion and fire, in which strongly exothermic reactions produce large temperature variations but only mild pressure...
Quantitative OH concentrations and primary soot particle sizes have been determined in the soot oxidation regions of axisymmetric diffusion flames burning...
