A Mixed-Mode Smart Transducer Interface for Sensors and Actuators

October 15, 1996
Author(s)
S Chen, Kang B. Lee
This article discusses some of the key issues of the proposed IEEE P1451.4 standard ? the existing mixed-mode transducer communication schemes, the Transducer Electronic Data Sheet (TEDS) requirements, compatibility with legacy systems, and utilization of

Comparison of CFAST Predictions to Real Scale Fire Tests

October 15, 1996
Author(s)
Walter W. Jones, J. L. Bailey, P. A. Tatem, Glenn P. Forney
This paper describes a new algorithm of the Consolidated Fire Growth and Smoke Transport (CFAST) fire model and compares to data from real scale fire tests conducted onboard the ex-USS SHADWELL, the Navy's R&D Damage Control Platform. The new phenomenon
