Improved Mesoscale Segmentation of Concrete from 3D X-ray Images Using Contrast Enhancers

June 28, 2018
Author(s)
Pietro Carrara, Rolands Kruse, Dale P. Bentz, M Lunardelli, Thorsten Leusmann, P Varady, Laura De Lorenzis
Obtaining the mesostructure of concrete from X-ray computed tomography (CT) requires segmentation of the data into distinct phases, a process complicated by the limited contrast between aggregates and mortar matrix. This paper explores the possibility to

Machine learning modeling of superconducting critical temperature

June 28, 2018
Author(s)
Aaron Gilad Kusne, Valentin Stanev, Ichiro Takeuchi
Superconductivity has been the focus of enormous research effort since its discovery more than a century ago. Yet, some features of this unique phenomenon remain poorly understood; prime among these is the connection between superconductivity and chemical

Measurements of scatter peaks in 137Cs and 60Co sources

June 28, 2018
Author(s)
Leticia S. Pibida
The results of the testing of radiation detection instruments with radionuclide identification capabilities will depended on the sources used for the tests. High resolution spectra need to be acquired to determine all the observable peaks in the source

STEP File Analyzer and Viewer User Guide (Update 5)

June 28, 2018
Author(s)

Robert R. Lipman

This guide describes how to use the STEP File Analyzer and Viewer, a software tool that analyzes and generates a spreadsheet or a set of CSV (comma-separated value) files from a STEP (STandard for the Exchange of Product model data) file. The spreadsheets

A practical field guide to thermoelectrics: fundamentals, synthesis, and characterization

June 27, 2018
Author(s)
Alex Zevalkink, David M. Smiadak, Joshua Martin, Michael Chabinyc, Olivier Delaire, Jeffrey Blackburn, Andrew Ferguson, Jian Wang, Kirill Kovnir, Laura Schelhas, Stephen D. Kang, Maxwell T. Dylla, G. J. Snyder, Brenden Ortiz, Eric Toberer
The study of thermoelectric materials spans condensed matter physics, materials science and engineering, and solid-state chemistry. The diversity of the participants and the inherent complexity of the topic means that it is difficult, if not impossible, for

In-Vehicle Software Defined Networking: An Enabler for Data Interoperability

Data-driven Discovery of 3D and 2D Thermoelectric Materials

June 26, 2018
Author(s)
Kamal Choudhary, Kevin Garrity, Francesca Tavazza
Abstract: In this work, we perform a systematic search for high-efficiency, three-dimensional (3D) and two-dimensional (2D) thermoelectric materials by combining semiclassical transport techniques with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Out of
