Metrological Traceability for Guarded-Hot-Plate Apparatus

May 9, 2013
Author(s)
Robert R. Zarr
An approach for establishing metrological traceability for measurement results from guarded-hot-plate apparatus consistent with policy at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is presented. A brief example for initiating met-rological

VISCOSITY AND DENSITY OF ALUMINUM OXIDE NANOLUBRICANT

May 8, 2013
Author(s)
Mark A. Kedzierski
This paper presents liquid kinematic viscosity and density measurements of a synthetic polyolester-based aluminum oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticle dispersion (nanolubricant) at atmospheric pressure over the temperature range 288 K to 318 K. Two Al2O3 particles

Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Dispersion 1. Optimum placement of gas inlets on a building rooftop for the measurement of greenhouse gas concentrations

April 22, 2013
Author(s)
Kuldeep R. Prasad, Anthony Bova, James R. Whetstone, Elena Novakovskaia
Inverse atmospheric dispersion models are used to provide measurement-based, or “topdown”, estimates of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for comparison with input-based, or “bottom-up”, estimates. To minimize uncertainty, inverse estimates require accurate

Sustainability through Lifecycle Synthesis of Material Information

April 19, 2013
Author(s)
Paul W. Witherell, Katherine C. Morris, Anantha Narayanan Narayanan, Jae H. Lee, Sudarsan Rachuri
The synthesis of material information across lifecycle stages will lay the foundation for a material information model to support sustainable decision making. This paper explores how material information is represented in select standards that address

The Exothermic Reaction of Fire Suppressants

March 13, 2013
Author(s)
Gregory T. Linteris, Valeri I. Babushok, Fumiaki Takahashi, Viswanath R. Katta, Oliver Meier
Several fire suppressants are under consideration to replace CF3Br for use in suppressing fires in aircraft cargo bays. In Federal Aviation Administration performance tests simulating the explosion of an aerosol can, however, the replacements HFC-125, 2-

Adhesion Society Meeting Proceedings

March 3, 2013
Author(s)
Rebecca Ploeger, Aaron Forster, Donald Hunston, Etienne de la Rie, Christopher McGlinchey
Consolidating adhesives have been used throughout the centuries for the conservation of painted cultural objects- such as paintings and polychrome sculpture- and if it were not for these adhesives, many objects may not have survived to the present day

Discussion of Review of Methods to Assess, Design for, and Mitigate Multiple Hazards by Yue Li, Aakash Ahuja, and Jamie E. Padgett (J. Performance of Constructed Facilities, 26 104-117)

March 1, 2013
Author(s)
Dat Duthinh, Long T. Phan, Emil Simiu
The authors have performed a useful service by providing a broad perspective on multi-hazard engineering. The discussers would like to complement that perspective by noting two results of practical significance in the context of design for multiple hazards

Using multi-zone modeling of particle transport to support building design

February 21, 2013
Author(s)
Dong H. Rim, Andrew K. Persily, Lance L. Wallace, William S. Dols, Steven J. Emmerich
As building design and operation changes to meet the goals of sustainability, it is critical to address indoor air quality issues such that indoor environmental conditions are maintained. Among the indoor air contaminants of concern in this context are
