Guidance for the Model User on Representing Human Behavior in Egress Models

May 24, 2016
Author(s)
Erica D. Kuligowski, Steve Gwynne, Michael Kinsey, Lynn Hulse
Structures are currently designed and constructed in accordance with prescriptive and performance-based (PBD) methodologies to ensure a certain level of safety. The performance-based approach requires the quantification of both ASET (Available Safe Egress

Oscillator metrology with software defined radio

May 24, 2016
Author(s)
Jeffrey A. Sherman, Robert Jordens
Analog electrical elements such as mixers, filters, transfer oscillators, isolating buffers, dividers, and even transmission lines contribute technical noise and unwanted environmental coupling in time and frequency measurements. Software defined radio

Leonid A. Bendersky, Zhipeng Li, S. Yasui, Saya Takeuchi, Adam A. Creuziger, S. Maruyama, Andrew A. Herzing, I Takeuchi
Epitaxial LiCoO2 (LCO) thin films of different orientations were
 fabricated by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) in order to model single-crystal
 behavior of intercalation cathodes during electrochemical reactions. This paper demonstrates that
(1) epitaxial

May 24, 2016
Author(s)
Bjoern J. Johansson, Mahesh Mani, William Z. Bernstein, Kevin W. Lyons, KC Morris, Laurie Rebouillat, Ilaria Barletta
Efficiency of natural stone production processes in quarries directly affects the economic output and environmental performances, such as production lead times and energy consumptions. Knowledge on stone production processes is crucial in making

Visualizing Forensic Publication Impacts and Collaborations: Presenting at a Scientific Venue Leads to Increased Collaborations between Researchers and Information Professionals

May 24, 2016
Author(s)
Susan L. Makar, Amanda J. Malanowski, Kathleen A. Rapp
The Information Services Office (ISO) of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) proactively sought out an opportunity to present the findings of a study that showed the impact of NIST’s forensic research output to its internal customers

Enzyme-catalyzed Reactions

May 23, 2016
Author(s)
Robert N. Goldberg
The thermodynamic principles that pertain to both chemical and overall biochemical reactions are discussed with particular emphasis on enzyme-catalyzed reactions. Chemical reactions involve specific species (which may also be biochemical importance) and

k-asymmetric spin-splitting at the interface between transition metal ferromagnets and heavy metals.

May 23, 2016
Author(s)
Sergiy Grytsyuk, Abderrezak Belabbes, Paul M. Haney, Hyun-Woo Lee, Kyung Jin Lee, Mark D. Stiles, Udo Schwingenschlogl, Aurelien Manchon
We systematically investigate the spin-orbit coupling-induced band splitting originating from inversion symmetry breaking at the interface between a Co monolayer and 4d (Tc, Ru, Rh, Pd, and Ag) or 5d (Re, Os, Ir, Pt, and Au) transition metals. In spite of

Near-field microwave microscopy of one-dimensional nanostructures
