Working with Forestry Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources, the Defense Nuclear Agency carried out an extensively instrumented experiment of a prescribed burn in forest debris to simulate conditions of a mass fire. In addition to the
Burn facilities have been developed at NIST to measure the yield and optical properties of smoke at two fire scales. The small scale apparatus is used for burning samples about 10 cm in diameter (soup bowl size) and an intermediate scale apparatus is used
Abstract: A technique for characterizing microwave packages based on active PIN diode standards is discussed. The technique allows packages to be accurately characterized from external reflection coefficient measurements when a single bias-dependent active

A prototype standard set in coplanar waveguide suitable for the calibration of wafer probe stations has been developed through a cooperative effort between the National Institute of Standards and Technology and a MIMIC Phase 3 team. The coplanar standard
Although a fundamental parameter of transmission lines, the characteristic impedance is difficult to measure accurately. We suggest a method by which it may be easily determined from a measurement of the propagation constant. The method is based on a
The Product Data Exchange Specification (PDES) is an emerging standard for the exchange of product information among various manufacturing applications. The natural exchange medium for PDES product models is the STEP physical file format. The National PDES
