Indentation mapping revealed poroelastic, but not viscoelastic,properties spanning native zonal articular cartilage

November 8, 2017
Author(s)
Joseph Wahlquist, Frank W. DelRio, Mark Randolph, Aaron Aziz, Chelsea Heveran, Stephanie Bryant, Corey P. Neu, Virginia L. Ferguson
Osteoarthrosis is a debilitating disease affecting millions, yet engineering materials for cartilage regeneration has proven difficult because of the complex microstructure of this tissue. Articular cartilage, like many biological tissues, produces a time

NIST Channel Sounder Overview and Channel Measurements in Manufacturing Facilities

November 8, 2017
Author(s)
Jeanne T. Quimby, Richard Candell, Catherine A. Remley, David R. Novotny, Joseph Diener, Peter B. Papazian, Alexandra Curtin, Galen H. Koepke
Manufacturers are increasingly choosing wireless platforms to replace wired ones due to their ease of installation, upgrade, and reconfigurability. Reliable and secure real-time performance of wireless platforms is technically challenging because wireless

Overview of an Ontology-based Approach for Kit Building Applications

November 8, 2017
Author(s)
Zeid Kootbally, Thomas Kramer, Craig I. Schlenoff, Satyandra K. Gupta
The Agility Performance of Robotic Systems (APRS) project at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is using Web Ontology Language (OWL) ontologies for modeling in a robotic kitting workstation. The new technical idea for the APRS

Service Life Prediction -Why is this so hard?

November 8, 2017
Author(s)
Christopher C. White, Kenneth M. White, James Pickett
Service life prediction in general and weathering lifetime in particular have been persistent problems despite nearly a century of work. Part of the problem has been a gap between the work of scientists studying material degradation and the practices

Tolerances and Uncertainty in Robotic Systems

November 8, 2017
Author(s)
Frederick M. Proctor, John L. Michaloski, Marek Franaszek
The ability to be programmed for a wide range of tasks is what differentiates robots from dedicated automation. Consequently, robots can be faced with often-changing requirements and conditions. Conventional application development based on teach

Flux-tunable phase shifter for microwaves

November 7, 2017
Author(s)
Roope J. Kokkoniemi, Tuomas Ollikainen, Sakari Saarenpaa, Janne Kokkala, Ceren Dag, Mikko Mottonen, Russell Lake
We introduce a magnetic-flux-tunable phase shifter for propagating microwave photons, based on three equidistant superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) on a transmission line. We experimentally implement the phase shifter and demonstrate

Results of an International Comparison of Activity Measurements of 68Ge

November 7, 2017
Author(s)
Jeffrey T. Cessna, Ryan P. Fitzgerald, Brian E. Zimmerman, Lizbeth Laureano-Perez, Denis E. Bergeron
An international key comparison, identifier CCRI(II)-K2.Ge-68, has been performed. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) served as the pilot laboratory, distributing aliquots of a 68Ge/68Ga solution. Results for the activity

The power collection method for connection relations: Meixner polynomials

November 7, 2017
Author(s)
Howard Cohl, Michael Baeder, Roberto Costas-Santos, Wenqing Xu
We use and derive connection and connection-type relations for Meixner and Krawtchouk polynomials. These relations are used to derive generalizations of generating functions for these orthogonal polynomials. The coefficients of these generalized generating
