MEMS Nanopositioners

January 1, 2016
Author(s)
Jason J. Gorman
This book chapter provides a review of the state of the art for MEMS nanopositioners. The motivation for MEMS nanopositioners is presented with respect to the advantages of this technology compared to macroscale mechanisms and the novel applications that

NIST Time and Frequency Bulletin

January 1, 2016
Author(s)
Karen L. Hansen Lichtfuss
The Time and Frequency Bulletin provides information on performance of time scales and a variety of broadcasts (and related information) to users of the NIST services

Organohalogen contaminants and vitamins in Northern Fur Seals (Callorhinus ursinus) collected during subsistence hunts in Alaska

January 1, 2016
Author(s)
Jessica L. Reiner, Paul R. Becker, Jennifer M. Lynch, Amanda J. Moors, Jennifer M. Ness, Rebecca S. Pugh, Catherine A. Rimmer, John R. Kucklick, Matthew O. Gribble, Danielle Peterson, Jody Rhoderick, Jennifer Trevillian
During native subsistence hunts from 1987 to 2007, blubber and liver samples from 50 subadult male northern fur seals (Callorhinus ursinus) were collected on St. Paul Island, Alaska. Samples were analyzed for legacy persistent organic pollutants (POPs)

PLANETARY BOUNDARY LAYER MODELING AND TALL BUILDING DESIGN

January 1, 2016
Author(s)
Emil Simiu, Liang Shi, DongHun Yeo
Recent research into Planetary Boundary Layer (PBL) flows accounts for the difference between �neutral� and �conventionally neutral� flows. Of interest in structural engineering are �conventionally neutral� PBL flows, that is, flows affected by transport

A defect-driven diagnostic method for machine tool spindles

December 31, 2015
Author(s)
Gregory W. Vogl, M A. Donmez
Simple vibration-based metrics are, in many cases, insufficient to diagnose machine tool spindle condition. These metrics couple defect-based motion with spindle dynamics; diagnostics should be defect-driven. A new method and spindle condition estimation

Design of a 1 DOF MEMS motion stage for a parallel plane geometry rheometer

December 31, 2015
Author(s)
Yong Sik Kim, Nicholas Dagalakis, Chiara C. Ferraris, Svetlana Avramov-Zamurovic1
Rotational rheometers are used to measure paste properties, but the test would take too long to be useful for a quality control (QC) on the job site. In this paper, a new type of rheometer is proposed based on a one degree of freedom (DOF) micro-electro

Effect of Common Faults on the Performance of Different Vapor Compression Systems

December 31, 2015
Author(s)
Zhimin Du, Piotr A. Domanski, William V. Payne
The effect of faults on cooling capacity, COP, sensible heat ratio, and superheat/subcooling temperatures in five split and rooftop systems, which use different types of expansion devices, compressors and refrigerants, are separately compared and analyzed

ThermoData Engine (TDE) Version 10 (Pure Compounds, Binary Mixtures, Ternary Mixtures, and Chemical Reactions): NIST Standard Reference Database 103b

December 31, 2015
Author(s)
Vladimir Diky, Chris Muzny, Alexander Smolyanitsky, Ala Bazyleva, Robert D. Chirico, Joe W. Magee, Eugene Paulechka, Andrei F. Kazakov, Scott Townsend, Eric Lemmon, Michael D. Frenkel, Kenneth Kroenlein
The ThermoData Engine is a software expert system implementing the concept of dynamic data evaluation for thermophysical and thermochemical properties of, primarily, organic compounds. This new release provides a substantially expanded database of
