Methods were developed to calculate empirical models for device error behavior from data sets with missing data. These models can be used to develop reduced point testing procedures for the devices. The partial data methods reduce the prediction
This is the April 2001 edition of energy price indices and discount factors for performing life-cycle cost analyses of energy and water conservation and renewable energy projects in federal facilities. It will be effective from April 1, 2001, to March 31

We measure the flow kinetics of a polyethylene extruded through the exit of a capillary tube in order to understand the nature of sharkskin, a surface roughness in the extruded material. In the absence of a polymer process additive (PPA), optical

The friction force as a function of humidity was measured between 5 nm thick carbon films coated onto mica surfaces. The friction was found to be proportional to the area of contact. The shear stress at 0%, 33%, and 100% humidity was measured to be 25 +6
This document describes FS-TST Release 1.0. A software package developed to aid the testing of disk imaging tools typically used in forensic investigations. The package includes programs that use the interrupt 13h BIOS disk interface to initialize disk

The G-protein coupled receptor CCR5 binds three distinct B-chemokines on the solvent exposed segments of the extracellular surface. This same region of CCr5 also interacts with certain macrophage-tropic strains of HIV-1. To investigate structural features

Components from the extracellular surface of CCR5interact with certain macrophage-tropic strains of hu-man immunodeficiency virus type I (HIV-1) to mediateviral fusion and entry. To mimic these viral interactingsite(s), the amino-terminal and extracellular
A computationally convenient Green's function method is described forcalculation of strain characteristics of quantum dots in an anisotropic semi-infinite solid containing a free surface. Semi-analytic expressions are derived for the strain field due to a
This handbook contains examination procedure outlines (EPOs) for the field evaluation of commercial weighing and measuring devices. It includes inspection and test procedures with code references to NIST Handbook 44 - Specifications, Tolerance, and Other
Hylleraas-Configuration Interaction (Hy-CI) method variational calculations with up to 4648 expansion terms are reported for the ground 1S state of neutral helium. Convergence arguments are presented to obtain estimates for the exact nonrelativistic energy
The U.S. private sector has indicated that the National Institute of Standards and Technology has a role to play in facilitating the implementation of high throughput experimentation, for example using combinatorial methods. The Advanced Technology Program
A new linear prediction method that improves IDDQ test effectiveness is described. The method uses statistical pre-processing of exhaustive measurements on training devices to extract principal patterns in the device IDDQ behavior and to generate a

Results from in-situ time-resolved SAXS measurement on PEH melt crystallization, subjected to a step shear, indicate that an oriented lamellar structure is formed at the initial crystallization stage upon cessation of the step shear. Randomly distributed

The single fiber fragmentation test was used to investigate the effect of gelation time on interfacial shear properties of fast reacting resin systems. We developed a processing system capable of producing single fiber fragmentation samples with gelation
An intercomparison has been conducted to compare the illuminance responsivity scales (A/lx) and the luminous flux units (lm) maintained at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST, USA) and the Helsinki University of Technology (HUT
This manual is prepared for seismic and winds hazards evaluation of reinforced concrete buildings in the Dominican Republic. The evaluation procedures presented in this manual can be applied to any ordinary cast-in-place concrete buildings, but are

NIST, Sandia National Laboratories, and International SEMATECH are developing a new type of linewidth standard for calibrating Critical Dimension (CD) metrology instruments for lithographic process control. The standard reference feature is the bridge of

Non-resonant inelastic x-ray scattering spectra have been measured with an energy loss close to the fluorine K-edge of lithium fluoride. The extracted dynamic structure factor is well reproduced by an ab initio computational scheme that takes the electron

In order to understand the liquid-liquid phase separation and crystallization in copolymer blends of PEH and PEB, the transmitted optical microscopy was employed to observe the morphological development with the normal quench and double quench measurements

In this report, we elucidate the structure of a small molecule liquid crystal/polymer interface using specular neutron reflectivity. More specifically, we examined the interfacial transition zone width of a small molecule liquid crystal/polymer as a

Heavily doped cadmium tin oxide (CTO) film electrodes were developed for fast electron exchange with redox proteins. The metal oxide films showed nearly reversible electron transfer for the [2Fe-2S] proteins spinach ferredoxin (Sp fd) and putidaredoxin
Paper cut-out pyramid, 10 cm x 10 cm x 10 cm, listing metric conversion information on each face covering units of length, mass or weight, area or surface, energy, volume and temperature. The bottom face lists metric symbols.
