… (NIST) in Gaithersburg, Maryland to demonstrate that a home similar in size, aesthetics, and amenities to those in … requirements. The top energy end use within the home was space conditioning, which included heat loss through …

Measuring the Resiliency of Cellular Base Station Deployments

March 11, 2015
Author(s)
David W. Griffith, Richard A. Rouil, Antonio Izquierdo Manzanares, Nada T. Golmie
The National Public Safety Telecommunications Council (NPSTC) has defined Resiliency as the ability of a network to withstand the loss of assets and to recover quickly from such losses. How to measure the resiliency of a base station deployment is an

CT Measurements of SAP Voids in Concrete

August 15, 2010
Author(s)
Sara Laustsen, Dale P. Bentz, Marianne Hasholt, Ole M. Jensen
This paper describes how X-ray computed tomography (CT) scanning can be used to determine the void distribution in hardened concrete. Three different approaches are used to analyse a binary data set created from CT measurement. One approach classifies a

Preliminary Report on the Biocompatibility of a Moldable, Resorbable, Composite Bone Graft Consisting of Calcium Phosphate Cement and Poly (Lactide-Co-Glycolide) Microspheres

May 1, 2002
Author(s)
Carl Simon Jr., C A. Khatri, Scott Wight, Francis W. Wang
We have assessed the biocompatibility of a new composite bone graft consisting of calcium phosphate cement (CPC) and poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) microspheres (175-350 ?m) using cell culture techniques. CPC powder is mixed with PLGA microspheres and

The Influence of a Multilayered Metallic Coating on Fatigue Crack Nucleation

November 1, 2001
Author(s)
Mark R. Stoudt, Richard E. Ricker, R C. Cammarata
A through review of the literature on fatigue crack initiation indicates that for optimum resistance to fatigue crack initiation, a surface coating needs more than just a high hardness and that a combination of properties including toughness, cyclic work

Cubic Boron Nitride Tool Wear in Interrupted Hard Cutting

May 1, 1999
Author(s)
Y K. Chou, Christopher J. Evans
Cubic boron nitride (CBN) tool wear in interrupted turning of hardened M50 steel has been investigated. The goal was to identify dominant wear mechanism during interrupted cutting, and in particular, to study the effect of CBN content. Results show

Characterization of Long-Term Sub-Hourly Thermal Comfort Performance Data

November 1, 2020
Author(s)
Hyojin Kim, Lisa Ng, Brian P. Dougherty, William V. Payne
Current thermal comfort standards do not provide guidelines on how to graphically characterize and benchmark long-term, sub-hourly, thermal comfort. In an effort to address this void, several statistical characterizations and advanced visualization methods

Author(s)
Michael A. Lombardi, Andrew N. Novick, John P. Lowe, Matthew J. Deutch, Glenn K. Nelson, Douglas D. Sutton, William C. Yates, D. W. Hanson
Radio controlled clocks represent a true revolution in timekeeping. Clocks that synchronize to NIST radio station WWVB now number in the millions in the United States, and new sales records are being established every year. As a result, many of us are now

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
