Towards Absolute Viability Measurements for Bacteria

September 12, 2021
Author(s)
Joy Dunkers, Hariharan K. Iyer, Brynna H. Jones, Charles Camp, Stephan J. Stranick, Nancy Lin
Quantifying viable, vegetative bacteria is a critical measurand in healthcare diagnostics, food safety, and antimicrobial development. Viability determination has traditionally relied on such techniques as plate counting, colorimetric or fluorescent

Pendellosung Interferometry Probes the Neutron Charge Radius, Lattice Dynamics, and Fifth Forces

Benjamin J. Heacock, Robert W. Haun, Michael G. Huber, Albert Henins, Robert C. Valdillez, Takuhiro Fujiie, Katsuya Hirota, Masaaki Kitaguchi, Hirohiko Shimizu, Takuya Hosobata, Masahiro Takeda, Yutaka Yamagata
Structure factors describe how incident radiation is scattered from materials such as silicon and germanium and characterize the physical interaction between the material and scattered particles. We used neutron Pendellösung interferometry to make

Tools, Models and Dataset for IEEE 802.11ay CSI-based Sensing

September 10, 2021
Author(s)
Steve Blandino, Tanguy Ropitault, Anirudha Sahoo, Nada T. Golmie
The ubiquitous deployment and availability of wireless communication devices create the perfect opportunity to provide new wireless local area network (WLAN) use-cases, by implementing new sensing capabilities, while leveraging existing communications

A Framework for the Composition of IoT and CPS Capabilities

September 9, 2021
Author(s)
Khalid Halba, Edward Griffor, ANTON DAHBURA, ahmed lbath
By 2030, over half-trillion devices will be connected to the internet. With so many devices with a wide range of capabilities, there is a need for a framework for innovation and reuse of IoT and CPS capabilities. Such framework should facilitate

Classifying Memory Bugs Using Bugs Framework Approach

September 9, 2021
Author(s)
Irena Bojanova, Carlos Galhardo
In this work, we present an orthogonal classification of memory corruption bugs, allowing precise structured descriptions of related software vulnerabilities. The Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) is a well-known and used list of software weaknesses

Critical considerations for the design of multi-organ microphysiological systems (MPS)

September 9, 2021
Author(s)
Mridu Malik, Yang Yang, Parinaz Fathi, Gretchen Mahler, Mandy Esch
The process of identifying new drugs and getting them approved for use in patients requires extensive preclinical studies and clinical trials. Preclinical studies rely on in vitro experiments and animal models of human diseases. The reliability of data

Low barrier height in a ZnO nanorods/NbSe2 heterostructure prepared by van der Waals epitaxy

September 9, 2021
Author(s)
Yeonhoo Kim, Roxanne Tutchton, Ren Liu, Sergiy Krylyuk, Jian-Xin Zhu, Albert Davydov, Young Joon Hong, Jinkyoung Yoo
Two-dimensional (2D) materials as contacts for semiconductor devices have attracted great attention due to minimizing Fermi level pinning. Schottky–Mott physics has been widely employed to design 2D material-based electrodes and to elucidate their contact

Modeling MCPTT and User Behavior in ns-3

September 9, 2021
Author(s)
Wesley Garey, Thomas Henderson, Yishen Sun, Richard A. Rouil, Samantha Gamboa Quintiliani
To support the advancement of public safety communications technology, the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has created several standards to define Mission Critical Push-To-Talk (MCPTT) over Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks. As this is a new

PyLCP: A python package for computing laser cooling physics

September 9, 2021
Author(s)
Stephen Eckel, Daniel Barker, Eric Norrgard, Julia Scherschligt
We present a python object-oriented computer program for simulating various aspects of laser cooling physics. Our software is designed to be both easy to use and adaptable, allowing the user to specify the level structure, magnetic field profile, or the

Response Time Impact of Smoke Alarms

September 9, 2021
Author(s)
Stanley W. Gilbert, Thomas Cleary, Paul A. Reneke, Richard Peacock, David Butry
It can be assumed that smoke alarms reduce reported fires and casualties by reducing on average the amount of time it takes to detect a fire. This paper sets out to determine by how much that detection time is reduced. It does so by comparing the effect of

A Functional BCI Model by the P2731 Working Group: Transducer

September 8, 2021
Author(s)
Kamran Sayrafian, Guillermo Sahonero-Alvarez, Avinash Singh, Luigi Bianchi, Avid Roman-Gonzalez
A Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) can be considered as a technology that allows for alternative means of communication between humans and their environment using thoughts and intentions. The structure of this interface is composed of various stages

Data-Based Models for Hurricane Evolution Prediction: A Deep Learning Approach

September 8, 2021
Author(s)
Rikhi Bose, Adam L. Pintar, Emil Simiu
Fast and accurate prediction of hurricane evolution from genesis onwards is needed to reduce loss of life and enhance community resilience. In this work, a novel model development methodology for predicting storm trajectory is proposed based on two classes

High-fidelity laser-free universal control of trapped ion qubits

September 8, 2021
Author(s)
Raghavendra Srinivas, Emanuel Knill, Robert Sutherland, Alexander T. Kwiatkowski, Hannah M. Knaack, Scott Glancy, David J. Wineland, Shaun C. Burd, Dietrich Leibfried, Andrew C. Wilson, David T. Allcock, Daniel Slichter
Universal control of multiple qubits—the ability to entangle qubits and to perform arbitrary individual qubit operations—is a fundamental resource for quantum computing, simulation and networking. Qubits realized in trapped atomic ions have shown the

Intramolecular Structure and Dynamics in Computationally Designed Peptide-Based Polymers Displaying Tunable Chain Stiffness

September 7, 2021
Author(s)
Nairiti Sinha, Yi Shi, Christopher J. Kloxin, Jeffery G. Saven, Antonio Faraone, Grethe V. Jensen, Darrin J. Pochan
Polymers constructed via hybrid physical-covalent assembly of computationally designed peptide coiled coils, or bundlemers, display tunable chain stiffness via control of inter-bundlemer connectivity. Neutron spin echo spectroscopy reveals that rigid rod

Recommendation system to predict missing adsorption properties of nanoporous materials

September 7, 2021
Author(s)
Arni Sturluson, Ali Raza, Grant McConachie, Daniel Siderius, Xaioli Fern, Cory Simon
Nanoporous materials (NPMs) selectively adsorb and concentrate gases into their pores and thus could be used to store, capture, and sense many different gases. Modularly synthesized classes of NPMs, such as covalent organic frameworks (COFs), offer a large
