A SysML Representation of the Wireless Factory Work-cell

June 6, 2019
Author(s)
Richard Candell, Mohamed T. Hany, Yongkang Liu, Sebti Foufou
Smart Manufacturing, also known as Industry 4.0, provides a vision of future manufacturing systems that incorporate highly dynamic physical systems, robust and responsive communications systems, and computing paradigms to maximize efficiency, enable

Efficient volumetric non-destructive testing methods for additively manufactured parts

June 6, 2019
Author(s)
Anne-Francoise Obaton, Bryan Butsch, Ewen Carcreff, Nans Laroche, Jared B. Tarr, Alkan Donmez
As additive manufacturing (AM) moves towards industrial production in critical sectors such as aerospace and medical, the integrity of the fabricated AM parts need to be ensured in order for these parts to be certified. This requires quality controls

Magneto-optic trap using a reversible, solid-state alkali-metal source

June 6, 2019
Author(s)
Songbai Kang, Kaitlin R. Moore, James P. McGilligan, R. Mott, A. Mis, C. Roper, Elizabeth A. Donley, John E. Kitching
Fast, reversible, and low-power alkali-atom sources are desirable in both tabletop and portable cold-atom sensors. Here we demonstrate a magneto-optic trap (MOT) formed in conjunction with a reversible solid state Rb reservoir in a vapor cell. The results

Miniaturized Nanohole Array Based Plasmonic Sensor for the Detection of Acetone and Ethanol with Insights into the Kinetics of Adsorptive Plasmonic Sensing

June 6, 2019
Author(s)
Yangyang Zhao, Kalisadhan Mukherjee, Kurt D. Benkstein, Libin Sun, Kristen L. Steffens, Christopher B. Montgomery, Stephen Semancik, Mona Zaghloul
The present work demonstrates development of a miniaturized plasmonic platform comprised of a Au nanohole array (NHA) on a Si/Si3N4 substrate. Plasmonic responses of the NHA platform, which is coated with Cu-benzenetricarboxylate metal organic framework

A Methodology for Enabling Forensic Analysis Using Hypervisor Vulnerabilities Data

June 5, 2019
Author(s)
Ramaswamy Chandramouli, Anoop Singhal, Duminda Wijesekera, Changwei Liu
Hardware/Server Virtualization is a key feature of data centers used for cloud computing services and enterprise computing that enables ubiquitous access to shared system resources. Server virtualization is typically performed by a hypervisor, which

Multiscale polymer dynamics in hierarchical carbon nanotube reinforced glass fiber composites

June 5, 2019
Author(s)
Ajay Krishnamurthy, Ran Tao, Erkan Senses, Sagar Doshi, Erik Thostenson, Faraz Burni, Bharath Natarajan, Donald L. Hunston, Amanda L. Forster, Aaron M. Forster
Carbon-nanotube (CNT) grafted glass fiber reinforced epoxy nanocomposites (GFRP) present a hierarchy of stiffness (GPa to MPa) and lengths (µm to nm) scales at the fiber-matrix interphase. The contribution of interfacial CNT networks to the local and bulk

Siting background towers to characterize incoming air for urban GHG estimation: a case study in the Washington DC/Baltimore Area

June 5, 2019
Author(s)
Kimberly L. Mueller, Vineet Yadav, Israel Lopez Coto, Anna Karion, Sharon M. Gourdji, Cory R. Martin, James R. Whetstone
There is increased interest in understanding urban greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, to accurately estimate city emissions, the influence of exurban fluxes must first be removed from urban greenhouse gas (GHG) observations. This is especially true

Morphology of a thermally stable small molecule OPV blend comprising a liquid crystalline donor and fullerene acceptor

June 4, 2019
Author(s)
Alexander J. Bourque, Sebastian Engmann, Allison Fuster, Chad R. Snyder, Lee J. Richter, Paul B. Geraghty, David J. Jones
Recently organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices comprising the small molecule liquid-crystalline donor, benzodithiophene-quaterthiophene-rhodanine (BQR), were demonstrated to achieve high performance when thermally processed, avoiding the need for slow-drying

Determination of Ceramic Flaw Populations from Component Strengths

June 3, 2019
Author(s)
Robert F. Cook, Frank W. DelRio
A procedure is outlined for determining the population of flaws in manufactured ceramics from strength measurements of sampled components. The broad applicability of the procedure is demonstrated in a quantitative manner, using strength measurements from a

Diaphragmless Single Pulse Shock Tube for High-Temperature Chemical Kinetics Studies

June 3, 2019
Author(s)
William Sean McGivern, Iftikhar A. Awan, Jeffrey A. Manion
Single pulse shock tubes are effective tools for measuring chemical kinetics at high temperatures, typically (900–1400) K. However, the use of a diaphragm for shock generation leads to significant shock-to- shock inconsistencies in temperature for a

Modifying interface cure properties of hierarchical CNT composites.

June 3, 2019
Author(s)
Ajay Krishnamurthy, Qi An, Aaron M. Forster
Hierarchical carbon nanotube (CNT) grafted fiber-reinforced polymer composites (FRP) display multifunctional capabilities such as enhanced mechanical and electrical properties that enable their use in structural applications. These properties are achieved

Self-organized nonlinear gratings for ultrafast nanophotonics

June 3, 2019
Author(s)
Daniel D. Hickstein, David R. Carlson, Haridas Mundoor, Jacob B. Khurgin, Kartik A. Srinivasan, Daron A. Westly, Abijith S. Kowligy, Ivan I. Smalyukh, Scott A. Diddams, Scott B. Papp
We present the first demonstration of automatically quasi-phase-matched second-harmonic generation using femtosecond pulses. The high-confinement geometry of silicon-nitride nanophotonic waveguides provides group-velocity matching, which enables efficient
