For applications of phase equilibria to the processing of second-generation high Tc superconductor-coated-conductors, phase diagrams constructed under carbonate
We present a new technique for the computation of both the translational diffusivity and the intrinsic viscosity of macromolecules, and apply it here to
The Automotive Industry Action Group- (AIAG) led consortium, formed to execute an ATHENA project validation pilot, demonstrated initial results at the AIAG

ASHRAE Standard 62 was first published in 1973, with the title Standards for Natural and Mechanical Ventilation [REF]. The most recent version (designated as 62
An information model of a building automation system (BAS) was created. It encapsulates several views of the system: the device list, network topology, points
The electrical measurements required during the primary calibrations of laboratory standard microphones by the reciprocity method can be influenced by power
This paper focuses on the automation and upgrades performed on the 27.1kN (6100 lbf) dead weight machine located at the National Institute of Standards and
This is an answer key to questions posed in our previous article in the "Your Homework Assignment" series. We discuss simulated annealing and annealing
Reducing the operating voltage and power consumption of organic-based logic circuits for portable applications is a critical step towards organic electronics
