Low-field magnetic resonance imaging of roots in intact clayey and silty soils

March 27, 2020
Author(s)
Mark S. Conradi, Stephen A. Altobelli, Dean O. Kuethe, Matthew S. Rosen, Neha Koonjoo, Bo Zhu, Karl Stupic, William L. Rooney, John E. Mullet, Brock Weers, G. Cody Bagnall, Haly Neely, Eiichi Fukushima, Cristine Morgan
The development of a robust method to non-invasively visualize root morphology in natural soils has been hampered by the opaque nature, chemical composition, and physical structure of soils. We describe here a novel technology—low field magnetic resonance

On Selecting Channel Parameters for Public Safety Network Applications in LTE Direct

March 26, 2020
Author(s)
Siyuan Feng, Hyong-Ah Choi, David W. Griffith, Richard A. Rouil
The Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) defines various pre-configured channel parameters for the Long- Term Evolution (LTE) Device-to-Device (D2D) communications with Physical Sidelink (SL) Channels. In this paper, we investigate the impacts of

Summary: Workshop on Machine Learning for Optical Communication Systems

March 26, 2020
Author(s)
Joshua A. Gordon, Abdella Battou, Michael P. Majurski, Dan Kilper, Uiara Celine, Massimo Tonatore, Joao Pedro, Jesse Simsarian, Jim Westdorp, Darko Zibar
Optical communication systems are expected to find use in new applications that require more intelligent and automated functionality. Optical networks are needed to address the high speeds and low latency of 5G wireless networks. The analog nature of

Greenhouse gas observations from the Northeast Corridor tower network

March 25, 2020
Author(s)
Anna Karion, William Callahan, Michael Stock, Steve Prinzivalli, Kristal R. Verhulst, Jooil Kim, Peter Salameh, Israel Lopez Coto, James R. Whetstone
We present the organization, structure, instrumentation, and measurements of the Northeast Corridor greenhouse gas observation network. This network of tower-based in-situ carbon dioxide and methane observations was established in 2015 with the goal of

Metastability and Reversibility of Anionic Redox-Based Cathode for High-Energy Rechargeable Batteries

March 25, 2020
Author(s)
Bao Qiu, Minghao Zhang, Seung-Yong Lee, Haodong Liu, Thomas A. Wynn, Lijun Wu, Yimei Zhu, Wen Wen, Craig Brown, Dong Zhou, Zhaoping Liu, Ying Shirley Meng
Great focus has been placed on the advancement of anionic redox, to which Li-rich layered oxide cathodes high capacities - currently exceeding 300 mAh g -1 - are attributed. With almost doubled capacity compared with present cathode materials, performance

Vibrational Modes and Quantum Zero-Point Energy of Hydrogen in ZrH 0.0155 and ZrH 2

March 25, 2020
Author(s)
Timothy R Prisk, Alexander I. Kolesnikov, Garrett E. Granroth, Jun-li Lin, Brent J. Heuser
We report on an inelastic neutron scattering study of the proton dynamics in ZrH 0.0155 and -ZrHd2^. In particular, we present measurements of the incoherent dynamic structure factor, generalized vibrational density of states, and proton momentum

Behavior and Limit States of Long-Span Composite Floor Beams with Simple Shear Connections subject to Compartment Fires: Experimental Evaluation

March 24, 2020
Author(s)
Lisa Y. Choe, Selvarajah Ramesh, William L. Grosshandler, Matthew S. Hoehler, Mina S. Seif, John L. Gross, Matthew F. Bundy
This paper presents the results of compartment fire experiments on four 12.8 m long composite floor beams with various end support conditions. Specimens were constructed as partially- composite beams, consisting of W18x35 steel beams and 83 mm thick

Chiral Superconductivity in Heavy-Fermion Metal UTe 2

March 24, 2020
Author(s)
Lin Jiao, Sean Howard
Spin-triplet superconductivity is a condensate of electron pairs with spin-1 and an odd parity pair wavefunction 1. A particularly interesting manifestation of triplet pairing is a chiral p-wave state which is topologically non-trivial and a natural

Strategic Roadmap for Interoperable Public Safety Analytics

March 24, 2020
Author(s)
Diane E. Ridgeway
Since 9/11, the Department of Homeland Security has provided over $16 billion dollars in grant assistance to secure cities and non-profit organizations against terrorist and disaster incidents. In order to meet the threat demands, public safety

Voices of First Responders - Examining Public Safety Communication from the Perspective of 9-1-1 Call Takers and Dispatchers: Findings from User-Centered Interviews, Phase 1, Volume 4

March 24, 2020
Author(s)
Michelle P. Steves, Mary Theofanos, Yee-Yin Choong, Shanee Dawkins, Susanne M. Furman, Kristen K. Greene, Sandra Spickard Prettyman
With the newly created Nationwide Public Safety Broadband Network (NPSBN), the public safety community has a unique opportunity to review and improve communication technology for first responders, 9 1 1 communications, emergency medical services (EMS)

Automatic Volumetric Segmentation of Additive Manufacturing Defects with 3D U-Net

March 23, 2020
Author(s)
Vivian W. Wong, Max Ferguson, Kincho Law, Yung-Tsun Lee, Paul Witherell
Segmentation of defects in additive manufacturing is challenging, due to the poor contrast, small sizes and variation in appearance of defects. Automatic segmentation can however provide quality control for additive manufacturing. Over recent years, 3D

Chemically Orthogonal Hole Transport Layer for Efficient Colloidal Quantum Dot Solar Cells

March 20, 2020
Author(s)
Margherita Biondi, Min-Jae Choi, Olivier Ouellette, Se-Woong Baek, Petar Todorovi?, Bin Sun, Peicheng Li, Ahmad R. Kirmani, Laxmi Chiluka, Lee J. Richter, Sjoerd Hoogland, Zheng-Hong Lu, F. Pelayo Garc?a de Arquer, Edward H. Sargent, Mingyang Wei
Colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) are of interest in light of their solution-processing and bandgap tuning. Advances in the performance of CQD optoelectronic devices require fine control over the properties of each layer in the device materials stack. This is
