Since 1987, the Alaska Marine Mammal Tissue Archival Project (AMMTAP) has collected tissues from 18 marine mammals species. Specimens are archived in the...
The National Biomonitoring Specimen Bank (NBSB), established in 1979 at the NIST Neutron Research Facility, Gaithersburg, Maryland, was specifically designed to...
This paper presents a knowledge-intensive support paradigm for platform-based product family design and development. The fundamental issues underlying the...
The pursuit of lower cost, shorter time-to-market, and better quality has led to a shift toward global production in today?s competitive business environment...
Three-flat tests are the archetypes of measurement procedures used in interferometric surface and wavefront metrology to separate errors in the interferometer...
