HYBRID FIRE TESTING OF A SINGLE DEGREE-OF-FREEDOM LINEAR SYSTEM

June 6, 2018
Author(s)
Ana Sauca, Chao Zhang, Artur A. Chernovsky, Mina S. Seif
As the structural engineering industry transitions towards performance based design methods, a better understanding of the performance of structures as full systems, especially under extreme loading conditions like fire, becomes a must. Full scale testing

Ventilation, IAQ and Filtration in a Net Zero Energy House

May 24, 2018
Author(s)
Andrew K. Persily, Lisa C. Ng, Dustin G. Poppendieck, Steven J. Emmerich
The Net Zero Energy Residential Test Facility (NZERTF) was constructed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to support the development and adoption of cost-effective net zero energy designs and technologies. The 250 m2 two-story

Nanocomposite Electrolytes for Lithium Batteries with Reduced Flammability

March 21, 2018
Author(s)
Mauro Zammarano, Apostolos Enotiadis, Nikhil Fernandes, Natalie A. A. Becerra, Emmanuel P. Giannelis
We report a family of flame-retardant electrolytes for lithium batteries based on ionic nanocomposites. The nanocomposites are synthesized in one pot by dispersing SiO2 nanoparticles charge-balanced by both Li ions and mono-amino-terminated polyether (PEO

Characterization of Stove Top Cooking Oil Fires

March 12, 2018
Author(s)
Anthony P. Hamins, Sung C. Kim, Daniel Madrzykowski
A series of cooking fire experiments were conducted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to examine the hazard associated with cooking oil fires. First, a series of experiments were conducted on a free-standing stove situated in the

Chapter 2 : Failure Modes, Likelihood, and Consequences

January 20, 2018
Author(s)
Kuldeep R. Prasad
The general purpose of underground gas storage (UGS) is to meet varying demand for natural gas (methane, CH4) over daily to seasonal time scales in the face of constant rate gas production and limited pipeline transport capacity. In California, UGS is used
