Numerical Simulation of Heat and Mass Transport during Hydration of Portland Cement Mortar in Semi-adiabatic and Steam Curing Conditions

October 22, 2015
Author(s)
Emilio Hernandez-Bautista, Dale P. Bentz, Sadoth Sandoval-Torres, Prisciiano Cano Barrita
The mass and heat transport during steam curing of concrete has a bearing on both the mechanical and durability properties. Therefore, it is essential to take into account the temperature evolution and the moisture distribution to prevent premature damage

Digital Phantoms Generated by Spectral and Spatial Light Modulators

October 21, 2015
Author(s)
Bonghwan Chon, Fuyuki Tokumasu, Ji Y. Lee, David W. Allen, Joseph P. Rice, Jeeseong Hwang
A hyperspectral image projector (HIP) based on liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS) spatial light modulators (SLMs) is explained and demonstrated to generate 3D spectral data cubes. The HIP- constructed data cubes are 3D images of the spatial distribution of

Lateral Tip Control Effects in CD-AFM Metrology: The Large Tip Limit

October 21, 2015
Author(s)
Ronald G. Dixson, Ryan Goldband, Ndubuisi G. Orji
Critical dimension atomic force microscopes (CD-AFMs) use flared tips and two-dimensional sensing and control of the tip-sample interaction to enable scanning of features with near-vertical or even reentrant sidewalls. Features of this sort are commonly

QconCAT: Internal Standard for Protein Quantification

October 21, 2015
Author(s)
Kerry M. Bauer, Karen W. Phinney, Illarion V. Turko
Protein quantification based on stable-isotope labeling mass spectrometry (SIL-MS) involves adding known quantities of stable-isotope labeled internal standards into biological samples. The internal standards are analogous to analyte molecules and

Author(s)
Thomas Gerrits, Peter C. Humphreys, Benjamin Metcalf, Thomas Hiemstra, Adriana E. Lita, Sae Woo Nam, Animesh Datta, Steven Kolthammer, Ian Walmsley, Joshua Nunn
We develop a comprehensive approach to analyzing the continuous output of photon detectors. It uses principle component analysis to extract information available from such detectors, followed by a novel parameterized photon-number resolving detector
