Modeling of moment connections for structural fire analyses

January 5, 2016
Author(s)
Mina S. Seif, Therese P. McAllister, Joseph A. Main, William E. Luecke
Performance-based methodologies to evaluate the fire performance of structures are needed to move beyond the prescriptive procedures presently in use, which cannot be used to determine actual structural performance in fire. Analytical methods are needed

Spectrum and Energy Levels of Five-Times Ionized Zirconium (Zr VI)

January 5, 2016
Author(s)
Joseph Reader, Mark D. Lindsay
The spectrum of five-times-ionized zirconium Zr VI was observed from 160 Å to 2000 Å with sliding spark discharges on 10.7-m normal- and grazing-incidence spectrographs. The existing analysis of this spectrum [Khan Z. A. et al. 1985 Phys. Scr. 31 837] was

Spectrum Sensing with WLAN Access Points

January 5, 2016
Author(s)
Jason Coder, Ryan T. Jacobs, Vivian Musser
With wireless communication becoming more and more common in simple everyday devices, the available spectrum is quickly filling up and the risk of interference is increasing. This interference could be a slight nuisance to or it could be a more significant

Testing Spectrum Sensing Networks by UAV

January 5, 2016
Author(s)
Dan Kuester, Ryan T. Jacobs, Yao Ma, Jason Coder
We consider here the use of hovering unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to test spectrum sensing capabilities of Citizen's Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) systems at 3.5 GHz. Aircraft transmit synthesized LTE or pulsed radar modulation to excite spectrum

Flexible Lines with Setups: Analysis, Improvement, and Application

January 4, 2016
Author(s)
Cong Zhao, Jingshan Li, Ningjian Huang, John A. Horst
Setup times commonly exist in many flexible manufacturing lines to adjust tools and carry out safety and quality checks during product changeovers. In this paper, a Markov chain model is introduced to study flexible manufacturing lines with setups. An

Advances in Thermometry

January 1, 2016
Author(s)
Michael R. Moldover, Weston L. Tew, Howard W. Yoon
The last 25 years have seen tremendous progress in thermometry in the moderate temperature range (1 K to 1235 K). Various primary thermometers — based on different physics —have uncovered errors in the International Temperature Scale of 1990 and set the
