The reliable measurement of pressures on low-rise buildings in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) flow remains a challenge, as has been shown by the large discrepancies among results obtained in different wind tunnel facilities or even in the same wind
This manual describes the use of the computer program CONTAMW developed by NIST. CONTAMW is a multizone indoor air quality and ventilation analysis program designed to help you determine: air flows--infiltration, exfiltration, and room-to-room air flows in

We present the results of experiments and modeling of flip-chip geometry solder joint shapes under shear loading. Modeling, using Surface Evolver, included development of techniques that use an applied vector force (normal and shear loading) as input to
Prediction of the DETACT-QS and LAVENT computer fire models are compared to temperature measurements made during the calibration of the fire detection system in a military aircraft hanger. Two 3.34 m2 isopropyl alcohol pool fire tests of 60 second duration

The availability of materials data for impact-mitigating materials has lagged behind applications-based data. For example, data describing on-field helmeted impacts are available, whereas material behaviors for the constituent impact mitigating materials

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration together with the National Institute of Standards and Technology are in the fourth year of a five year project designed to help NASA set guidelines for fire protection in high bay facilities. A high bay

Samples of soils collected by the Apollo 11 mission (10084) and the Apollo 14 mission (14163) were obtained from the NASA CAPTEM program. The particle size, shape, and internal porosity were characterized in three dimensions (3D) using a combination of X

Monoclonal antibodies are utilized in a wide range of biomedical applications. The NIST Monoclonal Antibody is a resource for developing analysis methods for monoclonal antibody based biopharmaceutical platforms. Techniques from topological data analysis
Software metrics are theoretically impossible. However, there is tremendous benefit if we can assess properties of computerized systems. We review the elements that make it hard to computerized systems, in contrast with Civil Engineering or physical

Modified nucleic acids have surged as a popular therapeutic route, emphasizing the importance of nucleic acid research in drug discovery and development. Beyond well-known RNA vaccines, antisense oligonucleotides and aptamers can incorporate various
Discovering meaningful collective variables for enhancing sampling, via applied biasing potentials or tailored MC move sets, remains a major challenge within molecular simulation. While recent studies identifying collective variables with variational

Manufacturing and Industrial Robotics have reached a point where in order to be more useful to small and medium sized manufacturers, the systems must become more agile and able to adapt to changes in the environment. This paper describes the process for
Live cell imaging uniquely enables the measurement of dynamic events in single cells, but it has not been used often in the study of gene regulatory networks. Network components can be examined in relation to one another by quantitative live cell imaging
The collective behavior of a self-interacting Bose-condensed gas of two-level atoms makes it esentially immune to dephasing from inhomogenous fields. We review some of the relevant experiments.
Nonlinear methods of seismic analysis have been gaining acceptance by practicing engineers as a useful way of assessing and improving the seismic performance of structures in which the nonlinear behavior of components of the structural model is captured in

In order to increase shelf life and minimize aggregation during storage, many biotherapeutic drugs are formulated and stored as frozen solutions or as lyophilized powders during manufacturing processes. Characterizing amorphous solids can be challenging
