Disordered Heterogeneous Materials

July 1, 2019
Author(s)
Andrew J. Allen
This chapter describes the use of diffraction-based methods to characterize amorphous or disordered heterogeneous materials. Quantitative materials microstructure characterization using small-angle scattering methods is emphasized. While these techniques

Energy Balance in Medium-Scale Methanol, Ethanol, and Acetone Pool Fires

July 1, 2019
Author(s)
Sung C. Kim, Ki Y. Lee, Anthony Hamins
Several series of measurements were made to characterize medium-scale pool fires steadily burning in a well-ventilated, quiescent, open environment. Time-averaged local measurements of radiative and total heat flux were made in steadily burning methyl

Nuclear Spin Incoherent Neutron Scattering from Quantum Well Resonators

July 1, 2019
Author(s)
Max Wolff, Anton Devishvili, Joseph Dura, Franz A. Adlmann, Brian Kitchen, Gunnar K. Palsson, Heikki Palonen, Brian B. Maranville, Charles Majkrzak, Boris P. Toperverg
We report the detection and quantification of nuclear spin incoherent scattering from hydrogen occupying interstitial sites in a thin film of vanadium. The neutron wave field is enhanced in a quantum resonator with magnetically switchable iron boundaries

On addition-subtraction chains of numbers with low Hamming weight

July 1, 2019
Author(s)
Dustin Moody, Amadou Tall
An addition chain is a sequence of integers such that every element in the sequence is the sum of two previous elements. They have been much studied, and generalized to addition-subtraction chains, Lucas chains, and Lucas addition-subtraction chains. These

Sensitivity Analysis Affecting the Calibration of Heat-Flow-Meter Apparatus

July 1, 2019
Author(s)
Robert R. Zarr, Sergio A. Carvajal, James J. Filliben
Results and analysis of a sensitivity study of four procedural variables on the calibration response of two commercial heat-flow-meter apparatus in compliance with ASTM Test Method C 518 are presented. The apparatus ranged in plate size from 305 mm by 305

Structural Investigations of Membrane-Associated Proteins by Neutron Reflectometry

July 1, 2019
Author(s)
Rebecca Eells, David Hoogerheide, Paul A. Kienzle, Mathias Loesche, Charles Majkrzak, Frank Heinrich
Neutron reflectometry is a powerful technique for probing the structure of lipid bilayer membranes and membrane-associated proteins. Measurements of the specular neutron reflectivity as a function of momentum transfer can be performed in aqueous

Wide-Angle Polarization Analysis on the Multi-Axis Crystal Spectrometer for the Study of Collective and Single Particle Dynamics of Methanol at its Prepeak

July 1, 2019
Author(s)
Wangchun Chen, Shannon M. Watson, Yiming Qiu, Jose Rodriguez Rivera, Antonio Faraone
Neutron polarization analysis capability with a large scattering angle and momentum transfer coverage has not been widely implemented for the separation of coherent and incoherent quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) spectra. A feasibility test for soft

IEEE RAS Standards Strategy Update

June 30, 2019
Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff
On September 30, 2018, the Industrial Activities Board (IAB) of the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society (RAS) organized a Standards Strategy Meeting in conjunction with the Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS) Conference in Madrid, Spain. The goal of the
