The motivation for the work is to rank candidate reference scaffolds by quality metrics in a systematic and quantitative manner by screening several microstructural descriptors of importance. We chose total pore volume, pore volume distribution, and pore
Motivated by recent efforts to mitigate blast loading using energy-absorbing materials, this paper investigates the mechanics of uniaxial crushing of cellular sandwich plates under air blast loading using analytical and computational modeling. This model
The structure and suppression of laminar methane air co-flow diffusion flames formed on a cup burner have been studied experimentally and numerically using physically acting fire-extinguishing agents (CO2, N2, He, and Ar) in normal earth (1g) and zero
The report constitutes a survey of work directed towards the emergence of next-generation product development tools, specifically in the area of design-analysis integration. The report is organized into two main areas: (1) an examination of issues
An algoithmic approach to improve the accuracy of AE source location was demonstrated by using a large database of wideband-acoustic-emission-(AE)-modeled signals and wavelet transform (WT) results. The AE-signal database was created by a three-dimentional

Buildings consume more than two-thirds of the electricity in the United States. The incorporation of photovoltaics into the buildings, referred to as building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), offers an aesthetically pleasing means of displacing centrally
Measuring voice quality for telephony is not a new problem. However, packet-switched, best-effort networks such as the Internet present significant new challenges for the delivery of real-time voice traffic. Unlike the circuit-switched PSTN, Internet
In interlaboratory comparisons, laboratories sometimes use a transfer instrument to realize the value of a laboratory standard to compare the relative biases of their measurement processes and standards. One summary of interest from such comparisons is the
Passive energy dissipation devices are used to reduce the damaging effects of earthquakes. These devices can absorb a portion of the earthquake-induced energy in structures and thus reduce the energy demand on structural members. Wide acceptance of these

Thermoplastic polyetherimide-clay nanocomposites were synthesized from 1,3-phenylenediamine and bisphenol A dianhydride using an in situ approach. Two types of organically treated clays were utilized to synthesize these nanocomposites. The two organically
The impetus for this project has been the continuing deterioration of, and the necessity to repair, a large stock of concrete structures. A two-component system, portland cement concrete (substrate) in contact with a polymer composite (repair) is produced
Passive energy dissipation devices are used to reduce the damaging effects of earthquakes. These devices can absorb a portion of the earthquake-induced energy in structures and thus reduce the energy demand on structural members. Wide acceptance of these

Laser light scattering from holographic sinusoidal gratings has been investigated with a view to its use in the calibration of the linearity of BRDF instruments, a task that requires a wide dynamic range in the scattered intensity. An aluminum-coated
