ASCE/SEI 41 Predicted Performance of Newly Designed BRBFs

January 8, 2017
Author(s)
Matthew Speicher, John Harris
Structural engineers in the United States have turned to performance-based design methodologies for design of new buildings in order to find improved design solutions as compared to those obtained using prescriptive design provisions of current model

EVALUATION OF STRUCTURAL PERFORMANCE BASED ON AN ENERGY BALANCE APPROACH

January 8, 2017
Author(s)
Kevin K F Wong, Steven McCabe
An analytical method is developed to investigate the potential energy of fully nonlinear framed structures and other energy characteristics due to earthquake ground motions. Since the potential energy relates to the stiffness of the structure, it consists

Impact of timing on the Proximity Services (ProSe) synchronization function

January 8, 2017
Author(s)
Samantha Gamboa Quintiliani, Fernando Cintron, David W. Griffith, Richard A. Rouil
Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) introduces a new feature called Proximity Services (ProSe), which enables device-to-device (D2D) communication between User Equipment (UE) and the capability to operate out-of-network. In order to establish a D2D

Data Resources for Thermophysical Properties of Metals and Alloys, Part 1: Structured Data Capture from the Archival Literature

January 7, 2017
Author(s)
Boris Wilthan, Erik A. Pfeif, Vladimir Diky, Robert D. Chirico, Ursula R. Kattner, Kenneth G. Kroenlein
In support of the continuous scientific and industrial need for accessible and high-quality thermophysical property data for metals and alloy systems, NIST/TRC is expanding its data archiving and critical evaluation activities to include this area. As part

An Introduction to Privacy Engineering and Risk Management in Federal Information Systems

January 5, 2017
Author(s)
Sean W. Brooks, Michael E. Garcia, Naomi B. Lefkovitz, Suzanne Lightman, Ellen M. Nadeau
This document provides an introduction to the concepts of privacy engineering and risk management for federal information systems. These concepts establish the basis for a common vocabulary to facilitate better understanding and communication of privacy

Limestone and Silica Powder Replacements for Cement: Early-Age Performance

January 5, 2017
Author(s)
Dale P. Bentz, Chiara F. Ferraris, Scott Z. Jones, Didier Lootens, Franco Zunino
Developing functional concrete mixtures with less ordinary portland cement (OPC) has been one of the key objectives of the 21st century sustainability movement. While the supply of many alternatives to OPC (such as fly ash or slag) may be limited, those of

Segmental Deuteration of a-Synuclein for Neutron Reflectometry on Tethered Bilayers

January 5, 2017
Author(s)
Zhiping Jiang, Frank Heinrich, Ryan P. McGlinchey, James M. Gruschus, Jennifer C. Lee
Neutron reflectometry (NR) is uniquely suited for studying protein interaction with phospholipid bilayers. While molecular details along the bilayer normal can be obtained on an Angstrom scale, NR cannot discern specific membrane-bound protein regions due

Standardization, Calibration, and Control in Flow Cytometry

January 5, 2017
Author(s)
Hao-Wei Wang, Robert A. Hoffman
Standardization, control, and calibration provide different degrees of certainty about the data acquired with an instrument. Each process is aimed at assuring that results from the instrument have the quality required for the intended purpose. The purpose

Diffusion of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) through an HDPE geomembrane

January 4, 2017
Author(s)
Pooneh Taghizadeh-Saheli, R. K. Rowe, Elijah Petersen, Denis O'Carroll
The new applications for carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in various fields and consequently the increase in their production volume have increased their potential release to the environment. Landfills are one of the major locations where carbon nanotubes are

Extrapolative Scaling Expression: A Fitting Equation for Extrapolating Full Ic(B,T,e) Data Matrixes from Limited Data

January 4, 2017
Author(s)
John (Jack) W. Ekin, Najib Cheggour, Loren F. Goodrich, Jolene D. Splett, Bernardo Bordini, David Richter, Luca Bottura
Scaling analysis of several thousand Nb3Sn critical-current (Ic) measurements is used to derive the extrapolative scaling expression (ESE), a global fitting equation that can quickly and accurately extrapolate (or interpolate) limited datasets to obtain

From Image Tiles to Web-Based Interactive Measurements in One Stop

January 4, 2017
Author(s)
Antoine Vandecreme, Michael P. Majurski, Joe Chalfoun, Keana Scott, John Henry Scott, Mary C. Brady, Peter Bajcsy
This article aims at introducing readers to a web-based solution useful for interactive measurements of centimeter-sized specimens at nanoscales. Modern imaging technology has enabled nanoscale imaging to become a routine process. As the imaging technology

Ni nanoindentation at the nanoscale: atomic rearrangements at the Ni-C interface

January 3, 2017
Author(s)
Francesca Tavazza, Lyle Levine, Bryan Kuhr, Diana Farkas
As mechanical testing proceeds towards ever-decreasing length scales, the ultimate limit is the atomic scale. Here, we investigate the atomic-scale interactions that occur at the diamond- nickel interface during the earliest stages of a Ni nanoindentation
