Service Life Prediction Models to Predict Building Skin Failures

October 1, 2018
Author(s)
Christopher C. White, Donald L. Hunston, Adam L. Pintar
Determination of the in-service performance and failure of a building envelope material exposed to outdoor weathering has been a significant research goal for the last 100 years. Typically, estimations of the time to failure or durability of a material is

Fundamentals and characterizations of scratch resistance on automotive clearcoats

William C. Thomas
This report is a supplement to the paper published as “Transient Thermal Response of an Extended Temperature Range 500-mm diameter Guarded Hot-plate Apparatus” by Thomas and Zarr (2018) [1], hereafter referred to as the “paper.” The paper emphasizes the

Performance Testing of Hydraulic Cements: Measuring Sulfate Resistance

May 25, 2018

Chiara F. Ferraris, Paul E. Stutzman, Max A. Peltz
The sulfate resistance of cements used in the construction industry is traditionally assessed by measuring the expansion of a prism of 280 mm (11inch) length and 25 mm (1 inch) square cross section immersed in a sodium sulfate solution for at least one

Experimental scattering matrix for lunar regolith simulant JSC-1A at visible wavelengths

March 8, 2018
Author(s)
Edward J. Garboczi, Ann C. Chiaramonti Debay, Thomas V. Lafarge, O Munoz, J Escobar-Cerezo, D Guirado, JC Gomez-Martin, Jay Goguen, F Moreno
We present the experimental scattering matrix as a function of the scattering angle of the lunar soil simulant JSC-1A. The measurements were performed at 488 nm, 520 nm and 647 nm, covering the range of scattering angles from 3o to 177o. The size
