Physical Component Libraries for SysPhS Modeling and Simulation in Manufacturing

October 10, 2023
Author(s)
Charles Manion, Conrad Bock, Raphael Barbau
Computer-interpretable representations of system structure and behavior are at the center of developing today's complex systems. Systems engineers create and review these representations using graphical languages and information models that capture

Two TE market approaches and impact on grid and customer flexibility

April 27, 2022
Author(s)
David Holmberg
This presentation covers simulation research evaluating two approaches to communicating value of electricity to customers. The first communicates day ahead prices to customers and allows customers to purchase forecast load at those prices with actual

Measurement of mass of aerosol particles

October 30, 2019
Author(s)
Kevin J. Coakley, Robert C. Hagwood, Kensei Ehara, Nobuhiko Fukushima, Kittichote Worachotekamjorn, Naoko Tajima, Hiromu Sakurai
An aerosol particle mass analyzer (APM) which classifies aerosol particles according to their mass has been developed. Mass distributions of aerosol particles can be measured by the APM combined with a particle counting device. Particle mass that can be

The Role of Carbon Dioxide in Ventilation and IAQ Evaluation: 40 years of AIVC

October 1, 2019
Author(s)
Andrew K. Persily, William S. Dols, Steven J. Emmerich, Lisa C. Ng
The purpose of this summary is to review Air Infiltration and Ventilation Centre activities, as reflected in its publications, related to indoor carbon dioxide over the 40 years that have transpired since its creation. These activities, like most

The Economic Impacts of the Advanced Encryption Standard, 1996-2017

September 7, 2018
Author(s)
David P. Leech, Stacey Ferris, John T. Scott
Cryptography is a branch of applied mathematics concerned with developing complex algorithms for scrambling information ("plaintext") into an indecipherable version of that information ("ciphertext") and back to plaintext. The basics of cryptography as it

The Industrial Ontologies Foundry Proof-of-Concept Project

August 26, 2018
Author(s)
Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Evan K. Wallace, Dimitris Kiritsis, Barry Smith, Chris Will
The current industrial revolution is said to be driven by the digitization of manu-facturing that exploits connected information across all aspects of manufacturing. Standards have been recognized as an important enabler. Ontology is the next generation

Ultra-Small-Angle Neutron Scattering with Azimuthal Asymmetry

June 1, 2016
Author(s)
X. Gu, David F. Mildner
Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) measurements from thin rock samples such as shales demand as great a scattering vector range as possible because the pores cover a wide range of sizes. The limitation of the scattering vector range for pinhole SANS

Beyond the International Year of Crystallography

February 1, 2015
Author(s)
Andrew J. Allen, Janos Hajdu, Anke R. Kaysser-Pyzalla
It is now one year since all International Union of Crystallography (IUCr) journals became online only, and this is just one of the developments during the International Year of Crystallography, IYCr 2014. Perhaps, most conspicuously, IUCr’s new flagship

Frequency-Comb-Based Remote Sensing of Greenhouse Gases over Kilometer Air Paths

October 29, 2014
Author(s)
Greg B. Rieker, Fabrizio R. Giorgetta, William C. Swann, Jonathan Kofler, Alexander M. Zolot, Laura C. Sinclair, Esther Baumann, Christopher L. Cromer, G. Petron, Colm Sweeney, P P. Tans, Ian R. Coddington, Nathan R. Newbury
We demonstrate frequency comb tooth-by-tooth measurements of atmospheric gas absorption across a 2-km, turbulent, open-air path through coherent dual-comb spectroscopy. High accuracy, high signal-to-noise transmission spectra are acquired spanning 5990 to

Observational Results of a Multi-Telescope Campaign to Detect Interstellar Urea [(NH2)2CO]

Francis J. Lovas, Anthony J. Remijan, Lewis E. Snyder, Brett A. McGuire, Hsin-Lun Kuo, Leslie W. Looney, Douglas N. Friedel, G. Y. Golbiatnikov, Vadim V. Ilyushin, E A. Alekseev, S F. Dyubko, Benjamin J. McCall, Jan M. Hollis
In this paper, we present observational evidence for gas phase urea observed towards the Sgr B2(N-LMH) region. We show data covering urea transitions from 100 GHz to 250 GHz from five different observational facilities: BIMA, CARMA, the NRAO 12 m telescope

Computer Security Incident Handling Guide

August 6, 2012
Author(s)
Paul R. Cichonski, Thomas Millar, Timothy Grance, Karen Scarfone
Computer security incident response has become an important component of information technology (IT) programs. Security-related threats have become not only more numerous and diverse but also more damaging and disruptive. An incident response capability is

Power Density Rating for Embedded Resistors

July 9, 2012
Author(s)
Jan Obrzut, Jason D. Ferguson, MIchael H. Azarian
The Power Density Ratting (PDR) for Embedded Resistors test method covers procedures for the demonstration of the ability to operate the embedded device safely within nominal tolerance, at rated power, and to withstand the transient voltage waves resulting

NIST Framework and Roadmap for Smart Grid Interoperability Standards, Release 2.0
