A Strategy for Handling Aberration in Spherical Neutron Polarimetry

December 11, 2019
Author(s)
Jacob Tosado, Wangchun Chen, Efrain E. Rodriguez
We present a strategy for identifying and correcting for aberration effects in Spherical Neutron Polarimetry. The transformation of the neutron beam polarization vector due to scattering from a material is determined with Spherical Neutron Polarimetry

DIGITAL TWIN FOR SMART MANUFACTURING: THE SIMULATION ASPECT

December 11, 2019
Author(s)
Guodong Shao, Sanjay Jain, Christoph Laroque, Loo Hay Lee, Peter Lendermann, Oliver Rose
The purpose of this panel is to discuss the state of the art in digital twin for manufacturing research and practice from the perspective of the simulation community. The panelists come from the US, Europe, and Asia representing academia, industry, and

Emergent Magnetic State in (111)-Oriented Quasi-Two-Dimensional Spinel Oxides

December 11, 2019
Author(s)
Xiaoran Liu, Sobhit Singh, Brian Kirby, Zhicheng Zhong, Yanwei Cao, Banabir Pal, Mikhail Kareev, Srimanta Middey, John W. Freeland, Padraic Shafer, Elke Arenholz, David Vanderbilt, Jak Chakhalian
We report on the emergent magnetic state of (111)-oriented CoCr 2O 4 ultrathin films sandwiched by Al 2O 3 in the quantum confined geometry. At the two-dimensional crossover, polarized neutron reflectometry reveals an anomalous enhancement of the total

NIST Special Database 302: Nail to Nail Fingerprint Challenge

December 11, 2019
Author(s)
Gregory P. Fiumara, Patricia A. Flanagan, John D. Grantham, Kenneth Ko, Karen Marshall, Matthew Schwarz, Elham Tabassi, Bryan Woodgate, Christopher Boehnen
In September 2017, the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) held a data collection as part of its Nail to Nail (N2N) Fingerprint Challenge. Participating Challengers deployed devices designed to collect an image of the full nail to nail

On the Cooling of a 360o Video Camera to Observe Fire Dynamics In Situ

December 11, 2019
Author(s)
Jiann C. Yang
An analysis was performed to provide design guidance on the cooling of an NIST-developed in situ fire visualization device, called Burn Observation Bubble (BOB). The analysis was to address the question of how long the device can be operated in a fire

Sizing up the Next Generation of Nanomedicines

December 11, 2019
Author(s)
Jeffrey D. Clogston, Vincent A. Hackley, Adriele Prina-Mello, Sanyogitta Puri, Silvia Sonzini, Patrick Lim Soo
During the past two decades the field of nanomedicines has experienced significant progress. To date, over sixty nanoparticle (NP) formulations have been approved in the US and EU while many others are in clinical or preclinical development, indicating a

The Economics of Firefighter Injuries in the United States

December 11, 2019
Author(s)
David T. Butry, David H. Webb, Stanley W. Gilbert, Jennifer Taylor
This report identifies, summarizes, and evaluates the available data and the literature describing the economic costs associated with non-fatal firefighter injuries, illnesses, health exposures, and occupational disease (‘health outcomes’) resulting from

Generating few-cycle pulses with integrated nonlinear photonics

December 10, 2019
Author(s)
David Carlson, Phillips Hutchison, Daniel D. Hickstein, Scott Papp
Ultrashort laser pulses that last only a few optical cycles have been transformative tools for studying and manipulating ultrafast light--matter interactions. These few-cycle pulses are typically produced from high-peak-power lasers, either directly from

An Assistive Learning Workflow on Annotating Images for Object Detection

December 9, 2019
Author(s)
Vivian W. Wong, Max K. Ferguson, Kincho H. Law, Yung-Tsun Lee
We present an end-to-end workflow to generate annotated image datasets for object detection. With this workflow, which we call assistive learning, we are able to reduce manual annotation time on two experimental datasets by 79.4% and 83.1%. The

Characterization of Size and Aggregation for CNC Dispersions Separated by Asymmetrical-flow Field-flow Fractionation

December 9, 2019
Author(s)
Jeremie Parot, Arnab K. Mukherjee, Martin Couillard, Maohui Chen, Shan Zou, Vincent A. Hackley, Linda Johnston
Cellulose nanocrystals derived from various types of cellulose biomass have significant potential for applications that take advantage of their availability from renewable natural resources and their high mechanical strength, biocompatibility and ease of

Infrastructure for Model Based Analytics for Manufacturing

December 9, 2019
Author(s)
Sanjay Jain, Anantha Narayanan Narayanan, Yung-Tsun Lee
Multi-resolution simulation models of manufacturing system, such as the virtual factory, coupled with analytics offer exciting opportunities to manufacturers to exploit the increasing availability of data from their corresponding real factory at different

Jovian Auroral Ion Precipitation: X-Ray Production from Oxygen and Sulfur Precipitation

December 9, 2019
Author(s)
Heman Gharibnejad, David Schultz, Thomas Cravens, Stephen Houston, W. R. Dunn, D. K. Haggerty, A. M. Rymer, B. H. Mauk, N. Ozak
Many attempts have been made to model X-ray emission from both bremsstrahlung and ion precipitation into Jupiter’s polar caps. Electron bremsstrahlung modeling has fallen short of producing the total overall power output observed by earth-orbit-based X-ray

Measurement of thermophysical properties of NIST SRM 1155a (Cr18-Ni12-Mo2)

December 9, 2019
Author(s)
Peter Pichler, Brian Simonds, Jeffrey W. Sowards, Gernot Pottlacher
SRM 1155a is an AISI 316 stainless steel (Cr18-Ni12-Mo2) and Standard Reference Material (SRM) intended for use with test methods for elemental analysis. At the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Boulder, Colorado dynamic absorptance

Moisture Transfer in Commercial Buildings due to the Air Leakage: A New Feature in the Online Airtightness Savings Calculator

December 9, 2019
Author(s)
Som Shrestha, Andre Desjarlais, Laverne Dalgleish, Lisa Ng, Diana Hun, Steven Emmerich, Gina Accawi
Air leakage through the building envelope is responsible for a large amount of energy use. The US Department of Energy Windows and Building Envelope Research and Development Roadmap for Emerging Technologies states that in 2010 infiltration was responsible
