General steps to standardize the laboratory measurement of serum total 25-hydroxyvitamin D

August 1, 2017
Author(s)
Karen W. Phinney, Christopher T. Sempos, J. M. Betz, Johanna Camara, Graham D. Carter, E. Cavalier, Michael W. Clarke, Kirsten D. Dowling, Ramon Durazo-Arvizu, Andrew N. Hoofnagle, A Liu, Kurtis Sarafin, Stephen A. Wise, Paul M. Coates
The Vitamin D Standardization Program (VDSP) has collaborated with numerous groups and agencies to assemble a set of tools, i.e. a reference measurement system, that can be used to establish traceability of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] assays to relevant

Measurement and Modeling of the Ability of Crack Fillers to Prevent Chloride Ingress into Mortar

August 1, 2017
Author(s)
Scott Z. Jones, Dale P. Bentz, Jeffrey Davis, Daniel S. Hussey, David L. Jacobson, John L. Molloy, John R. Sieber
One of the most common repair procedures applied to damaged concrete is the filling of cracks by the application (injection) of an organic polymer. This operation is performed to increase the service life of the concrete by removing a preferential pathway

Network Coding in Relay-based Device-to-Device Communications

August 1, 2017
Author(s)
Hamid Gharavi
Device-to-Device (D2D) communications has been realized as an effective means to improve network throughput, reduce transmission latency, and extend cellular coverage in 5G systems. Network coding is a well-established technique known for its capability to

Noise Refocusing in a Five-blade Neutron Interferometer

August 1, 2017
Author(s)
Michael G. Huber, Muhammad D. Arif, Dimitry A. Pushin, David G. Cory, Dusan Sarenac, Joachim Nsofini, Kamyar Ghofrani
We provide a quantum information description of a proposed five-blade neutron interferometer geometry and show that it is robust against low-frequency mechanical vibrations and dephasing due to the dynamical phase. The extent to which the dynamical phase

Raman Identification of Multiple Melting Peaks of Polyethylene

August 1, 2017
Author(s)
Ying Jin, Anthony P. Kotula, Chad R. Snyder, Angela R. Hight Walker, Kalman D. Migler, Young J. Lee
Multiple melting peaks of high-density polyethylene produced by complex thermal pre-treatment are investigated with variable temperature Raman spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). We examine the origin of the observed multiple melting

Transport Effects on Multiple-Component Reactions in Optical Bionsensors

August 1, 2017
Author(s)
Ryan M. Evans, David A. Edwards
Many biochemical reactions involve a stream of chemical reactants (ligand molecules) flowing over a surface to which other reactants (receptors) are confined. Scientists measure rate constants associated with these reactions in an optical biosensor: an

Viscosity Measurements of R32 and R410A to 350 MPa

August 1, 2017
Author(s)
Arno D. Laesecke, Scott Bair
Viscosity measurements were performed with a falling cylinder viscometer on difluoromethane (R32) and the refrigerant blend R410A (R32+R125 with 50 % by mass) at the temperatures 313.15 K, 348.15 K, and 393.15 K with pressures to 350 MPa. The measurement

APPLICATION OF A MODEL OF HYDROGEN-ASSISTED FATIGUE CRACK GROWTH IN 4130 STEEL

July 31, 2017
Author(s)
Andrew Slifka, Robert L. Amaro, Devin T. O'Connor, Benjamin E. Long, Elizabeth S. Drexler
In this work, we applied a finite element model to predict the cyclic lifetime of 4130 steel cylinders under the influence of hydrogen. This example is used to demonstrate the efficacy of a fatigue crack growth (FCG) model we have developed. The model was
