Performance of Personal Alert Safety Systems in Laboratory and Full-Scale Experiments

April 18, 2002
Author(s)
Nelson P. Bryner, Daniel M. Madrzykowski, D W. Stroup, J H. Lee
In 1998, over 500 firefighters in the United States were trapped in structure fires that resulted in injury or death of firefighters. Firefighters can be quickly overcome by the heat or smoke of a fire and may be unable to alert other fire ground personnel

Moving the Pulsed Heating Technique Beyond Monolithic Specimens: Experiments with Coated Wires

August 1, 2001
Author(s)
Daniel Josell, D Basak, J L. McClure, Ursula R. Kattner, Maureen E. Williams, William J. Boettinger, M Rappaz
Pulsed heating experiments based on pyrometric measurement of the temperature-time history of metal specimens rapidly heated by passage of electric current have a thirty year history at NIST. In recent years, efforts have been made to move beyond the

A Nonlinear Fluid Standard Reference Material: Progress Report

May 1, 1998
Author(s)
Carl R. Schultesiz, G B. McKenna
NIST is in the process of developing a new Standard Reference Material that replaces the previous SRM 1490 Nonlinear Fluid Standard. The purpose of the material and its development is two-fold: first, to help equipment manufacturers and researchers in

Status Report of the Second Quarter, FY92 (January 1 through March 1992)

May 1, 1992
Author(s)
Howard Bloom
An emerging information standard will make products more affordable to develop, manufacture, and maintain. The standard is STEP (STandard for the Exchange of Product model data). U.S. development efforts are collectively called PDES (Product Data Exchange

Concurrent Engineering Through Product Data Standards

May 1, 1991
Author(s)
Gary Carver, Howard Bloom
Concurrent engineering involves the integration of people, systems, and information into a responsive, efficient system. Integration of computerized systems allows additional benefits: automatic knowledge capture during the development and lifetime

Author(s)
Michael Fagan, Jeffrey Marron, Murugiah Souppaya, Paul Watrobski, Karen Kent, Blaine Mulugeta, Susan Symington
This document provides an overview of trusted Internet of Things (IoT) device network-layer onboarding, a capability for securely providing IoT devices with their local network credentials in a manner that helps to ensure that the network is not put at

Variant Allele Characterization in STR Markers Using Next Generation Sequencing

May 29, 2026
Author(s)
Lauren Mullen, Carolyn Steffen, Katherine Gettings, Kevin Kiesler, Peter Vallone
Traditionally, Sanger sequencing was used to characterize reference materials and confirm discordant allele calls from different STR typing kits at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Sequencing can also identify genomic variations
