Indoor CO2 concentrations are often discussed in the context of ventilation and IAQ, most recently in relation to airborne infectious disease transmission. However, many applications of indoor CO2 measurements do not reflect a sound technical understanding

Indoor Carbon Dioxide Metric Analysis Tool

June 14, 2022
Author(s)
Andrew K. Persily, Brian Polidoro
Indoor carbon dioxide has been used for decades to evaluate indoor air quality (IAQ) and ventilation. However, many applications of CO2 as an indicator or metric of IAQ or ventilation reflect a lack of understanding of the relationship between indoor CO2

Organic mixed ionic electronic conductors (OMIECs) have the potential to enable diverse new technologies, ranging from biosensors to flexible energy storage devices and neuromorphic computing platforms. However, study of these materials in their operating

Ordered t-way Combinations for Testing State-based Systems

June 13, 2022
Author(s)
D. Richard Kuhn, M S Raunak, Raghu N. Kacker
Fault detection often depends on the specific order of inputs that establish states which eventually lead to a failure. However, beyond basic structural coverage metrics, it is often difficult to determine if code has been exercised sufficiently to ensure

Using CO2 as a Ventilation Clue in Classrooms

June 13, 2022
Author(s)
Dustin Poppendieck
In the era of COVID19, we need to quickly find and fix classrooms that have inadequate ventilation to reduce long-range airborne transmission of diseases. Historically, the limited available data has shown classrooms in the United States to be under

Visualization Ecology Applications for Measurement Science: A Visualization Gap Approach

June 13, 2022
Author(s)
Simon Su, William Sherman, Steven G. Satterfield, Terence J. Griffin, William L. George, Sandy Ressler, Shaw C. Feng, Judith E. Terrill
Advanced visualization research have remained insufficiently included in science and engineering workflows due to the highly specialized task-specific requirements and lack of suitable applications. Although the field of visualization is maturing and

Revealing the Symmetry of Materials through Neutron Diffraction

June 12, 2022
Author(s)
William D. Ratcliff
Magnetic materials are used in many devices in everyday life. To control their properties, we must first understand how they are ordered. This can be accomplished through neutron diffraction measurements. However, in many cases, there are too many

New Constraints on Dark Photon Dark Matter with Superconducting Nanowire Detectors in an Optical Haloscope
