Residual stress determination by diffraction: Modeling and applications

January 1, 2004
Author(s)
Davor Balzar, N C. Popa
Residual stress plays an important role in shaping Iilaterials properties. We present both the method to determine texture-weighted strain orientation distribution function for arbitrary crystal and sample symmetries and an example of the determination of

Understanding Fire and Smoke Flow Through Modeling and Visualization

August 1, 2003
Author(s)
Glenn P. Forney, Daniel M. Madrzykowski, Kevin B. McGrattan, L M. Sheppard
Structural fires cost the American economy more than $100 billion annually in property damage, maintaining fire departments and insurance. A price cannot be put on the human toll: on average each year, 4,000 civilians die and 23,000 are injured in fires

A PDA Security Policy Enforcement Tool

July 9, 2002
Author(s)
Athanasios T. Karygiannis, Wayne Jansen, Serban I. Gavrila, Vlad Korolev
This paper describes a proof-of-concept implementation of a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) Security Policy Enforcement Tool developed by NIST. This tool can assist enterprise security administrators in setting, updating, monitoring, and enforcing group

An Intelligent World Model for Autonomous Off-Road Driving

November 21, 2001
Author(s)
Tommy Chang, Tsai Hong Hong, Marilyn N. Abrams, Michael O. Shneier
This paper describes a world model designed to act as a bridge between multiple sensory inputs and a behavior generation (path planning) subsystem for off-road autonomous driving. It describes how the world model map is built and how the objects and

Design of a Flexible, Integrated Testing System for STEP and OMG Standards

September 1, 2000
Author(s)
KC Morris, David Flater
New software standards supporting integration of manufacturing and engineering systems are emerging at a rapid pace. These standards are based on common method s, which can be exploited in developing tests for systems supporting the standards. This paper

An Introduction to Evaluating Biometric Systems

February 1, 2000
Author(s)
P J. Phillips, Alvin F. Martin, Charles L. Wilson, Mark A. Przybocki
How and where biometric systems are deployed will depend on their performance. Knowing what to ask and how to decipher the answers can help you evaluate the performance of these emerging technologies. On the basis of media hype alone, you might conclude
