Variant Design for Mechanical Artifacts - A State of the Art Survey

January 1, 1993
Author(s)
James E. Fowler
Variant design refers to the techniques of adapting existing design specifications to satisfy new design goals and constraints. A survey of approaches supporting variant design is presented. Capabilities used in current commercial computer aided design

Verification of a Model of Fire and Smoke Transport

January 1, 1993
Author(s)
Richard D. Peacock, Walter W. Jones, Richard W. Bukowski
A set of comparisons between a comprehensive room fire model and a range of real-scale fire experiments is presented. For these comparisons, a zone-based model, CFAST ('consolidated fire and smoke transport' model) is used. The model predicts the evolution

Wideband current and magnetic field sensors based on iron garnets

January 1, 1993
Author(s)
M. N. Deeter, Kent B. Rochford, Allen Rose, Gordon W. Day
Sensors based on the Faraday effect can be configured to measure either magnetic fields or electric currents. Such sensors can be constructed without introducing conducting materials which are often undesirable. Presently, the most sensitive Faraday effect

Workshop on Elevator Use During Fires

January 1, 1993
Author(s)
J H. Klote, Scott Deal, Bernard M. Levin, N E. Groner, E. A. Donoghue
Throughout most of the world, warning signs next to elevators indicate they should not be used in fire situations. These elevators are not intended as means of fire egress, and they should not be used for fire evacuation (Sumka 1988). The idea of using
