Identification of critical characteristics of therapeutically active cells, and quantification of those characteristics, are essential for assuring consistency and potency of cell therapy products. We have developed image analysis and visualization

Towards a dynamic pressure standard based on laser absorption spectroscopy

May 20, 2016
Author(s)
Kevin O. Douglass, Douglas A. Olson
We describe an approach for creating a cost-effective, field deployable dynamic pressure standard based on measurement of fundamental quantum properties of molecular systems. From the linewidth and intensities of ro-vibrational transitions we plan on

Author(s)
Andrew J. Slifka, Elizabeth S. Drexler, Robert L. Amaro, Damian S. Lauria, Louis E. Hayden, Douglas G. Stalheim, Yaoshan Chen
The National Institute of Standards and Technology has been testing pipeline steels to determine the fatigue crack growth rate in pressurized hydrogen gas; the project was sponsored by the Department of Transportation, and was conducted in close

THE EFFECT OF MICROSTRUCTURE ON THE HYDROGEN-ASSISTED FATIGUE OF PIPELINE STEELS

July 14, 2013
Author(s)
Andrew J. Slifka, Elizabeth S. Drexler, Robert L. Amaro, Damian S. Lauria, April Stevenson, Douglas G. Stalheim, Louis E. Hayden
Tests on the fatigue crack growth rate were conducted on four pipeline steels, two of grade API 5L- X52 and two API 5L-X70. One X52 material was from the mid 1960s and the other was manufactured in 2011. The two X70 materials had a similar vintage and

Assessment of the Thermophysical Properties of Thermally Stressed RP-1 and RP-2

May 2, 2013
Author(s)
Tara J. Fortin, Thomas J. Bruno
Density, speed of sound, and viscosity have been measured for samples of RP-1 and RP-2 that were stressed for 0.5 min at 475 °C and 510 °C at a pressure of 17 MPa. Density and speed of sound were measured from 5 °C to 50 °C for the samples stressed at 475
