An improved L1 based algorithm for standardized planar datum establishment

October 1, 2014
Author(s)
Craig M. Shakarji, Vijay Srinivasan
This paper has two major goals. First, we present an algorithm for establishing planar datums suitable for a default in tolerancing standards. The algorithm is based on a constrained minimization search based on the L_1 (L1) norm after forming a convex

Differential Properties of the HFE Cryptosystem

October 1, 2014
Author(s)
Taylor Daniels, Daniel Smith-Tone
Multivariate Public Key Cryptography (MPKC) has been put forth as a possible post-quantum family of cryptographic schemes. These schemes lack provable security in the reduction theoretic sense, and so their security against yet undiscovered attacks remains

Dynamic Force Calibration

October 1, 2014
Author(s)
Akobuije D. Chijioke, Nicholas A. Vlajic
The consequences of not knowing the value of measured forces in terms of meaningful units are significant. In the first place it becomes impossible to standardize an operation based on the measured force value so that it is independent of the particular

EVALUATION OF A LASER SCANNER FOR LARGE VOLUME COORDINATE METROLOGY - A COMPARISON OF RESULTS BEFORE AND AFTER FACTORY CALIBRATION

October 1, 2014
Author(s)
Massimiliano Ferrucci, Bala Muralikrishnan, Daniel S. Sawyer, Steven D. Phillips, Peter Petrov, Yuri Yakovlev, Andrey Astrelin, Spike Milligan, John Palmateer
Large volume laser scanners are increasingly being used for a variety of dimensional metrology applications. Methods to evaluate the performance of these scanners are still under development and there are currently no documentary standards available. This

NIST Framework and Roadmap for Smart Grid Interoperability Standards, Release 3.0

Structural Design for Fire: A Survey of Building Codes and Standards

October 1, 2014
Author(s)
Dat Duthinh
This document is a critical assessment of building codes and standards pertaining to structural design for fire from the United States, Canada, European Union members, Japan, New Zealand and Australia. These countries were selected because of their

Universal scaling law for the flow of non-Newtonian colloidal suspension

October 1, 2014
Author(s)
Nicos Martys, William L. George, Maxime Liard, Pascal Hebraud, Didier Lootens
It has been observed that flow curves (viscosity vs shear-rate) of spherical non-colloidal particles suspended in a non-Newtonian fluid matrix can be rescaled so as to collapse onto the flow curve of the matrix fluid. This result is surprising given the

Roadmap for Building Commissioning Research Workshop Summary Report

September 30, 2014
Author(s)
Natascha S. Milesi-Ferretti, David Shipley, Walter Zalis, Steven T. Bushby
This report summarizes the results of the Building Commissioning Research and Measurement Science Needs Webinar Workshop held on April 29, 2014, sponsored by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. This effort supports ongoing research into

The DNA Damaging Potential of Photoactivated P25 Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles

September 30, 2014
Author(s)
Elijah Petersen, Vytas Reipa, Stephanie S. Watson, Deborah Jacobs, Savelas A. Rabb, Bryant C. Nelson
Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) are found in numerous commercial and personal care products. Thus, it is necessary to understand and characterize their potential environmental health and safety risks. It is well known that photoactivated TiO2 NPs

CURVED-WIDE PLATE TESTING OF X100 GIRTH WELDS

September 29, 2014
Author(s)
Timothy S. Weeks, Joseph D. McColskey, Mark D. Richards, Yong-Yi Wang, Marie A. Quintana
The curved-wide plate (CWP) tests are frequently used for assessing the quality of pipeline girth welds. Despite a large number of CWP tests having been conducted at great expense over many decades, an industry consensus standard remains unavailable
