Flow sensor based on the snap-through detection of a curved micromechanical beam

December 1, 2018
Author(s)
Yoav Kessler, Robert Ilic, Slava Krylov, Alexander Liberzon
We report on a flow velocity measurement technique based on snap-through detection of an electrostatically actuated, bistable micromechanical beam. We show that induced elecro-thermal Joule heating and the convective air cooling change the beam curvature

Sokolov, Robert Sutherland, Norman Wagner, Michael NMN Weinrich, Kevin Weiss, Troy Wymore, Yang Zhang, Jeremy C. Smith
The scattering of neutrons can be used to provide information on the structure and dynamics of biological systems on multiple scales of length and time. Pursuant to an NSF-funded workshop in February 2018, we review recent developments in this field as

The Trouble with Terms

December 1, 2018
Author(s)
Celia Paulsen
Thousands of new words have been invented in the last decade to help us talk about technology. An analysis of the NIST glossary database shows insights into how we invent and define these words, and the impact of those definitions.

A Possible Advantage of Using Bi-directional S-Parameters in Antenna Measurements

November 30, 2018
Author(s)
Alex Yuffa, Ronald C. Wittmann, Michael H. Francis, Josh Gordon, David R. Novotny
the unknown-thru calibration technique is being used to achieve a system level calibration at milli-meter frequencies (>50 GHz) on the robotic ranges at NIST. Since this requires the use of a full bi-directional measurement, which takes longer than

Function VoronoiBound

November 30, 2018
Author(s)
Dat Duthinh, Brian M. Phillips
Matlab Function VoronoiBound calculates a Voronoi diagram with inner and outer bounds. This function is useful in defining tributary areas of pressure taps regularly or irregularly placed on the outside surface of a wind tunnel model.

Stochastic Search Methods for Mobile Manipulators

November 30, 2018
Author(s)
Amoako-Frimpong Samuel Yaw, Matthew Messina, Henry Medeiros, Jeremy Marvel, Roger V. Bostelman
Mobile manipulators are a potential solution to the increasing need for additional flexibility and mobility in industrial applications. However, they tend to lack the accuracy and precision achieved by fixed manipulators, especially in scenarios where both

The Transactive Energy Abstract Component Model

November 30, 2018
Author(s)
Martin J. Burns, Yuyin Song, David G. Holmberg
The transactive energy (TE) abstract component model (“Model”) was the product of a tiger team effort engaged by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Pacific Northwest National Lab (PNNL), Vanderbilt University, and Carnegie Mellon

Towards Cyber Resiliency in the Context of Cloud Computing

November 30, 2018
Author(s)
Xiaoyan Sun, Peng Liu, Anoop Singhal
Correct and accurate mission impact assessment is the essential prerequisite of mission-aware cyber resilience. However, an overlooked gap has been existing between mission impact assessment and cyber resilience. This article attempts to bridge the gap by

NIST Handbook 133: Checking the Net Contents of Packaged Goods (2019 Ed.)

November 29, 2018
Author(s)
Linda D. Crown, David Sefcik, Lisa Warfield
This handbook has been prepared as a procedural guide for the compliance testing of net contents statements on packaged goods. Compliance testing of packaged goods is the determination of the conformance results of packaging, distribution, and sale of
