Development of High Throughput Methods for Polymer Flammability Property Characterization

February 19, 2017
Author(s)
Jeffrey W. Gilman, Rick D. Davis, John R. Shields, D Wentz, L D. Brassell, A B. Morgan, R Lyon, J E. Zanetto
Recently we have developed several new high throughput (HT) methods to quantitatively evaluate the flammability of flame retarded (FR) polymers. The most recent results are due to the efforts of the High Throughput Methods for Materials Flammability

Improving the Interface Between Thermal and Structural Finite-Element Analyses

February 19, 2017
Author(s)
Dat Duthinh, Abed M. Khaskia
One of the recommendations of the National Construction Safety Team for the Federal Building and Fire Safety Investigation of the World Trade Center Disaster (NIST NCSTAR 1, 2005) is to enhance the capability of available computational software to predict

Plasma Diagnostic Techniques

February 19, 2017
Author(s)
Eric C. Benck
In order for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) plasma sources to become the next generation lithographic source, significant obstacles still need to be overcome. Improvements in conversion efficiency (CE), plasma stability, and component lifetimes are required

Fast Formation of Low-Defect-Density Tethered Bilayers by Fusion of Multilamellar Vesicles

January 10, 2017
Author(s)
Tadas Ragaliauskas, Mindaugas Mickevicius, Bozena Rakovska, Tadas Penkauskas, Frank Heinrich, Gintaras Valincius
Multilamelar vesicles fuse to molecular-anchor-grafted surfaces yielding low defect density, tethered bilayer membranes. Continuous bilayers are formed within 10 min, while the electrically insulating bilayers with less than 0,1 υmu-1} defect density can

Benchmark Problems for Phase Field Modeling

January 2, 2017
Author(s)
Andrea Jokisaari, P W. Voorhees, Jonathan E. Guyer, James A. Warren, O. G. Heinonen
… Materials Design (CHiMaD) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). While many scientific …

Atomistic Modelling of Scattering Data in the Collaborative Computational Project for Small Angle Scattering (CCP-SAS) 1

October 17, 2016
Author(s)
Stephen J. Perkins, David W. Wright, Hailiang Zhang, Emre H. Brookes, Jianhan Chen, Thomas C. Irving, Susan T. Krueger, David J. Barlow, Karen J. Edler, David J. Scott, Nicholas J. Terrill, Stephen M. King, Paul Butler, Joseph E. Curtis
In solution scattering, the major investment worldwide in multiuser X-ray synchrotrons and neutron sources have resulted in huge advances in the throughput and accuracy of the experimental measurements. Whilst closed-source non-atomistic analytical

Cement Paste Reference Material (SRM2492) Shelf-Life Extension

September 30, 2016
Author(s)
Alex Olivas, Chiara C. Ferraris, Brian Lang, Jennifer Richter, Raissa Ferron
Cement-based materials (e.g. cement paste, mortar and concrete) are complex rheological fluids that display time-dependent and shear-dependent rheological behavior. Over the years, various concrete rheometers have been proposed and made available

Interlaboratory Study of an Alternate Substrate for Use in ASTM E 2187

August 11, 2016
Author(s)
Richard G. Gann, Morgan Bruns, Edward J. Hnetkovsky, William F. Guthrie
ASTM E 2187 has become the internationally referenced standard for designing and specifying less fire-prone cigarettes. In this test method, a lit cigarette is laid on multiple layers of filter paper, and the observer identifies whether the cigarette burns

iNEMI Project on Automotive Electronic Material Challenges

September 3, 2015
Author(s)
Yaw S. Obeng
Automobiles are incorporating more and more electronics from various industry sectors that have not been optimally designed for use inside the vehicle passenger compartment. Reliability and cost are two key considerations when incorporating traditional
