The International Temperature Scale of 1990 (ITS-90) is defined in the region 3.0 K to 24.5561 K by an interpolating constant volume gas thermometer (ICVGT)
A fast and accurate method that uses a conventional powder x-ray diffractometer has been developed for measuring crystalline texture. A θ - 2θscan of a Bragg

A large class of distributed testing, control and collaborative applications are reactive or event driven in nature. Such applications can be structured as a
An alternative method of analysis was developed to estimate characteristic parameters of a published grain-bridging model for crack-extension resistance (R
The electrochemical behavior of silver (100) and (111) single crystal surfaces was examined in aqueous NaOH solution. The first step of silver oxidation is the
An earlier paper co-authored by the present author contains a major assumption in the analytical method that not be valid in a general class of structural
Failure of thin-film interconnects poses a great concern in semiconductor devices. Due to the high electric current density in interconnects, electromigration

Microleakage of an experimental direct filling materisl comprised of a chemically precipitated silver powder that had been surface treated with a dilute acid to
To enhance thermal efficiency of a system in high temperature structural applications, thermal barrier coatings (TBC) are often applied on the metallic
We define a correlation function that quantifies the spatial correlation of single-particle displacements in liquids and amorphous materials. We show for an

New studies of the infrared spectra of the products which result on codeposition at approximately 5 K of a Ne:NO sample with Ne atoms that have been excited in
The polarization of light scattered into directions out of the plane of incidence for 532 nm light incident at 45 with p-polarization was measured from rough
Vortex states of weakly-interacting Bose-Einstein condensates confined in three-dimensional rotating harmonic traps are investigated numerically at zero
Black liquor, the major by-product of the kraft process for production of pulp, is one of the most important industrial fuels. It is burned in recovery boilers
Molar heat capacities at constant volume C v were measured for binary refrigerant mixtures with an adiabatic colorimeter with gravimetric determinations of the
