Modeling of Suspension Flow in a Pipe Geometry and Rheometers

May 18, 2016
Author(s)
Nicos Martys, Chiara F. Ferraris, William L. George
Abstract Measurement and prediction of the flow of suspensions like cement based materials represents a significant challenge for both the experimentalist and modeler. In this paper, results of a computational study of suspension flow in a pipe and a

Antenna Metrology 100-500 GHz: A New Approach

May 16, 2016
Author(s)
Perry F. Wilson, Joshua A. Gordon, David R. Novotny, Jeffrey R. Guerrieri
A typical near-field scanning range for antenna measurements is based on simple translation stages (planar) or stacked rotators (spherical), or both (cylindrical). Above 100 GHz problems arise in both specialized waveguide components, such as precision

Uncertainty of Error: The Error Dilemma

May 11, 2016
Author(s)
Charles D. Ehrlich
Measurement error has historically been defined in the metrology community as a difference of 'values,' usually as a difference between a 'measured value' and a 'reference value.' The reference value is sometimes considered to be a 'true value,' which is

National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) Calibration Laboratories

May 10, 2016
Author(s)
Barbara J. Belzer, Kari K. Harper, Thomas R. Hettenhouser, Warren R. Merkel
NIST Handbook 150-2, 2016 edition, presents the technical requirements and guidance for the accreditation of laboratories under the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) Calibration Laboratories Program. The 2016 edition of NIST

Does Accuracy Matter to You?

May 1, 2016
Author(s)
Elizabeth J. Benham, Georgia L. Harris
This paper summarizes the importance of accuracy in measurement communications and provides reference to available resources for ensuring accuracy in written communications.

Diagnostics for geometric performance of machine tool linear axes

April 29, 2016
Author(s)
Gregory W. Vogl, M A. Donmez, Andreas Archenti
Machine tools degrade during operations, yet knowledge of degradation is elusive; accurately detecting degradation of linear axes is mainly a manual and time-consuming process. Thus, manufacturers need automated and efficient methods to diagnose the

Synchrotron X-Ray Microbeam Diffraction Measurements of Full Elastic Long Range Internal Strain and Stress Tensors in Commercial-Purity Aluminum Processed by Multiple Passes of Equal-Channel Angular Pressing

April 23, 2016
Author(s)
Thien Q. Phan, Lyle E. Levine, I-Fang Lee, Jonathan Z. Tischler, Ruqing Xu, Yi Huang, Terrance G. Langdon, Michael E. Kassner
Synchrotron X-ray microbeam diffraction was used to measure the full elastic long range internal strain and stress tensors of low dislocation density regions within the submicrometer grain/subgrain structure of equal-channel angular pressed (ECAP) AA1050
