A Framework to Enable Multiple Coexisting Internet of Things Applications

March 1, 2018
Author(s)
Wei Yu, Hanlin Zhang, Yalong Wu, David W. Griffith, Nada T. Golmie
Internet of Things (IoT) uses modern information communication technologies to connect massive numbers of objects and support numerous smart critical infrastructure applications (smart grid, smart cites, etc.). To meet the diverse performance requirements

Advances in Next-Generation Polyolefin Standard Reference Materials

May 17, 2017
Author(s)
Sara V. Orski, Wesley S. Farrell, Andre M. Striegel, Kathryn L. Beers
NIST’s approach to modernizing its synthetic polymer reference materials is to target precise and robust synthetic methods, making homogeneous standards than can be easily tailored to include desired chemistry, molar mass, and topography. This strategy

Stabilizing Superionic-Conducting Structures via Mixed-Anion Solid Solutions of Monocarba-Closo-Borate Salts

September 1, 2016
Author(s)
Wan Si NMN Tang, Koji Yoshida, Alexei V. Soloninin, Roman V. Skoryunov, Olga A. Babanova, Alexander V. Skripov, Mirjana NMN Dimitrievska, Vitalie Stavila, Shin-Ichi Orimo, Terrence J. Udovic
Solid lithium and sodium closo-polyborate-based salts are capable of superionic conductivities surpassing even liquid electrolytes, but often only at above-ambient temperatures where their entropically driven disordered phases become stabilized. Here we

Mitigation of autogenous shrinkage in repair mortars via internal curing

October 22, 2015
Author(s)
Dale P. Bentz, Scott Z. Jones, Max A. Peltz, Paul E. Stutzman
Repair mortars are being used with increasing frequency to maintain the aging US infrastructure. Durability is a key concern for such repair materials and both their volume stability and bond to the existing concrete are key attributes, the former to avoid

Measurement of Nanomaterials in Foods: Integrative Consideration of Challenges and Future Prospects

April 30, 2014
Author(s)
Christopher W. Szakal, Steve Roberts, Paul Westerhoff, Andrew Bartholomaeus, Neil Buck, Ian Illuminato, Richard Canady, Michael Rogers
Risks and benefits of nanomaterials related to food receive conflicting attention in news media, research, and across expert stakeholder groups internationally. Current nanomaterial analysis is complicated by broad definitions that include traditional food

Dissipative production of a maximally entangled steady state of two quantum bits

December 19, 2013
Author(s)
John P. Gaebler, Yiheng Lin, Florentin Reiter, Ting Rei Tan, Ryan S. Bowler, Anders Sorensen, Dietrich G. Leibfried, David J. Wineland
Entangled states are a key resource in fundamental quantum physics, quantum cryptography, and quantum computation [1]. To date, controlled unitary interactions applied to a quantum system, so-called "quantum gates'', have been the most widely used method

Prediction-Based Model Selection for Bayesian Multiple Regression Models

February 5, 2013
Author(s)
Adam L. Pintar
Model selection is an important part of model building for Bayesian linear models when the number of possible model terms is large. Most current approaches focus on posterior model probabilities or the deviance information criterion. This article proposes
