VISION EXPERIMENT ON CHROMA SATURATION FOR COLOR QUALITY PREFERENCE

July 31, 2015
Author(s)
Yoshihiro Ohno, Carl C. Miller, Mira Fein
Color Rendering Index (CRI) often does not correlate well with visual evaluation of color rendering of light sources at real illuminated scenes. The main reason is that CRI measures color fidelity, while general users judge color rendering based on their

Analysis of Network Segmentation Techniques in Cloud Data Centers

July 30, 2015
Author(s)
Ramaswamy Chandramouli
Cloud Data centers are predominantly made up of Virtualized hosts. The networking infrastructure in a cloud (virtualized) data center, therefore, consists of the combination of physical IP network (data center fabric) and the virtual network residing in

Ignition of Wood Fencing Assemblies Exposed to Continuous-Wind Driven Firebrand Showers

July 30, 2015
Author(s)
Sayaka Suzuki, Erik L. Johnsson, Alexander Maranghides, Samuel Manzello
A series of experiments were conducted to examine ignition of wood fencing assemblies subjected to continuous, wind-driven firebrand showers. Specifically, Western Red Cedar and Redwood fencing assemblies were exposed to continuous, wind-driven firebrand

Characterization of clay composite ballistic witness materials

July 29, 2015
Author(s)
Jonathan E. Seppala, Yoonae Heo, Paul E. Stutzman, John R. Sieber, Chad R. Snyder, Kirk D. Rice, Gale A. Holmes
Mechanical and thermal properties of Roma Plastilina Clay #1 (RP1) were studied through small-amplitude oscillatory shear (SAOS), large-amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), supplemented with thermogravimetric

Comprehensive Study of the Thermodynamic Properties for 2-Methyl-3-buten-2-ol

July 29, 2015
Author(s)
Dzmitry H. Zaitsau, Eugene Paulechka, Dzmitry S. Firaha, Andrey V. Blokhin, Gennady J. Kabo, Ala Bazyleva, Andrey G. Kabo, Mikhail A. Varfolomeev, Viktor M. Sevruk
The heat capacity of 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol over the interval (5 to 370) K was measured in an adiabatic calorimeter. The standard entropy and heat capacity of liquid phase at reference temperature 298.15 K were found to be Som = (232.6 ± 1.0) J·K-1·mol-1

SIMULATIONS TO CHARACTERIZE A PASSIVE MICROWAVE BLACKBODY DESIGN

July 29, 2015
Author(s)
Derek A. Houtz, Dave K. Walker, Dazhen Gu
This paper discusses the design of a microwave blackbody to be used as a primary laboratory standard for passive remote sensing applications. The design is required to have excellent performance over the frequencies ranging from 10 GHz to 220 GHz and will

The IAPWS Industrial Formulation for the Thermodynamic Properties of Seawater

July 29, 2015
Author(s)
Allan H. Harvey, H J. Kretzschmar, Rainer Feistel, Wolfgang Wagner, Kiyoshi Miyagawa, J R. Cooper, Michael Hiegemann, Francisco L. Blangetti, Konstantin A. Orlov, I Weber, Anurag Singh, Sebastian Herrmann
In 2008, the International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam (IAPWS) adopted a standard formulation for the thermodynamic properties of seawater as a sum of contributions to the Gibbs free energy from pure water and from dissolved sea salt

Production, Purification and Characterization of 15N-Labeled DNA Repair Proteins as Internal Standards for Mass Spectrometric Measurements

July 26, 2015
Author(s)
Prasad T. Reddy, Pawel Jaruga, Bryant C. Nelson, Mark Lowenthal, Ann-Sofie Jemth, Olga Loseva, Erdem Coskun, Thomas Helleday, Miral M. Dizdar
Oxidatively induced DNA damage is caused in living organisms by a variety of damaging agents, resulting in the formation of a multiplicity of lesions, which are mutagenic and cytotoxic. Unless repaired by DNA repair mechanisms before DNA replication, DNA

Self-referencing a CW laser with efficient nonlinear optics

July 26, 2015
Author(s)
Scott B. Papp, Katja M. Beha, Daniel C. Cole, Pascal P. Del'Haye, Aurelien C. Coillet, Scott A. Diddams
We phase-coherently measure the frequency of continuous-wave (CW) laser light by use of optical-phase modulation and 'f-2f' nonlinear interferometry. Periodic electro-optic modulation (EOM) transforms the CW laser into a continuous train of picosecond

Electric Field Control of Interfacial Ferromagnetism in CaMnO 3 /CaRuO 3 Heterostructures

July 24, 2015
Author(s)
Alexander J. Grutter, Brian J. Kirby, M. T. Gray, C. L. Flint, U. S. Alaan, Y. Suzuki, Julie A. Borchers
A key milestone for the development of low-power spintronic devices is electric field control of ferromagnetism. To that end, we have probed the electric field dependence of the emergent ferromagntic layer at CaRuO 3/CaMnO 3 interfaces in bilayers
