An Overview of Atom-Based SI-Traceable Electric-Field Metrology

October 30, 2016
Author(s)
Joshua A. Gordon, Christopher L. Holloway, Matthew T. Simons
We present an overview of radio frequency (RF) electric-field measurements using Rydberg atoms. This technique exploits the rich resonance response of these atoms which can occur across a large frequency range from 1 GHz-500 GHz. This measurement utilizes

Laser Path Planning and Power Control Strategies for Powder Bed Fusion Systems

August 9, 2016
Author(s)
Ho Yeung, Jorge Neira, Brandon Lane, Jason Fox, Felipe F. Lopez
In laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing process, laser scan path, velocity, and power are some of the most important parameters affecting the build quality. Control strategies for laser path and power are implemented and tested on a prototype

Reusing Metamodels and Notation with Diagram Definition

June 28, 2016
Author(s)
Conrad E. Bock, Maged Elaasar
It is increasingly common for language specifications to separate visual forms (concrete syntax) from underlying concepts (abstract syntax), enabling languages to define multiple visual forms for the same underlying concepts, and for the same visual form

Hydrodynamic Radius Fluctuations in Model DNA-Grafted Nanoparticles

June 16, 2016
Author(s)
Luis Fernando Vargas Lara, Francis W. Starr, Jack F. Douglas
We utilize molecular dynamics simulations (MD) and the path-integration program ZENO to quantify hydrodynamic radius (Rh) fluctuations of spherical symmetric gold nanoparticles (NPs) decorated with single-stranded DNA chains (ssDNA). In particular, we

Towards Estimating the Uncertainty Associated with 3D Geometry Reconstructions from Medical Image Data

May 23, 2016
Author(s)
Zachary H. Levine, Karim O. Genc, Stephen M. Luke, Todd Pietiela, Ross T. Cotton, Benjamin Ache, Phillipe G. Young, Marc Horner, Kevin C. Townsand
3D image based modeling for visualization, physics-based simulation or additive manufacturing, is becoming more common within R&D labs in academia, government and commercial industry. Computed Tomography (CT) is a common imaging modality used to obtain the

Performance Challenges Identification Method for Smart Manufacturing Systems

November 27, 2015
Author(s)
Kiwook Jung, Katherine C. Morris, Kevin W. Lyons, Swee K. Leong, Hyunbo Cho
Smart Manufacturing Systems (SMS) need to be agile to adapt to new situations by using detailed, precise, and appropriate data for intelligent decision-making. The intricacy of the relationship of strategic goals to operational performance across the many

Improved electronic measurement of the Boltzmann constant by Johnson noise Thermometry

August 19, 2015
Author(s)
Weston L. Tew, Samuel P. Benz, Horst Rogalla, Alessio Pollarolo, David R. White, Jifeng Qu, Kunli Zhou
The unit of thermodynamic temperature, the kelvin, will be redefined in 2018 by fixing the value of the Boltzmann constant, k. The present CODATA recommended value of k is determined predominantly by acoustic gas-thermometry results. To provide a value of

SIMULATIONS TO CHARACTERIZE A PASSIVE MICROWAVE BLACKBODY DESIGN

July 29, 2015
Author(s)
Derek A. Houtz, Dave K. Walker, Dazhen Gu
This paper discusses the design of a microwave blackbody to be used as a primary laboratory standard for passive remote sensing applications. The design is required to have excellent performance over the frequencies ranging from 10 GHz to 220 GHz and will
