Since publication of the 2004 update to the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) Task Group No. 43 Report (TG-43U1) and its 2007 supplement (TG-43U1S1), several new low- energy photon-emitting brachytherapy sources have become available
Each year the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) provides a report to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) summarizing federal agency use of government unique standards (GUS) used in lieu of voluntary consensus standards (VCS) during the previous
NIST Handbook 150-31 presents the technical requirements and guidance for the accreditation of laboratories under the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) Health Information Technology Testing program. It is intended for information
Forensic photography has been one of the most important tool for investigators over many decades. They preserve the history of the scene and provides a way for investigators to revisit the scene. However, it is difficult to ascertain any objective

Terrestrial laser scanners (TLSs) are a class of 3D imaging systems that measure the 3D coordinates of an object in their work volume. They capture the 3D coordinates using a ranging unit mounted on two rotation stages that are orthogonal to each other
The Dimensional Metrology Group (DMG) at National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST), along with various other organizations has been involved in the development of a documentary standard for a class of 3D metrology instruments that use a spherical

The Dimensional Metrology Group (DMG) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is performing research to support the development of documentary standards within ASTM E57 for the point-to-point performance evaluation of 3D imaging
The NIST Handbook 150 publication series sets forth the procedures, requirements, and guidance for the accreditation of testing and calibration laboratories by the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP). NIST Handbook 150-1, NVLAP
Three-dimensional (3D) integration is a key enabling technology for compact, high-performance, and/or low-power electronics. This technology enables the fabrication of circuits with functions that commonly cannot be fabricated on a single substrate in a

This paper discusses the recently published 2016 (third edition) of ISO 1. While the value of the standard reference temperature remains unchanged at 20 C, definitions for the reference temperature and standard reference temperature are now included. This
This paper presents the results of a collapse prevention seismic performance assessment using ASCE 41-06 for six special concentrically braced frames designed in accordance with the 2012 International Building Code. The correlation between ASCE 7-10 and
ASCE 41-13 is an industry standard for seismic evaluation and retrofit of existing buildings. Alternative component modeling and acceptance criteria are based on a backbone curve constructed from an envelope of component hysteresis loops derived via
This guide addresses electrical and electronic consumer products including those that will come into contact with food. In addition, it includes electrical and electronic products used in the workplace as well as electrical and electronic medical devices
