De-Identifying Government Datasets: Techniques and Governance

September 14, 2023
Author(s)
Simson Garfinkel, Joseph Near, Aref Dajani, Phyllis Singer, Barbara Guttman
De-identification is a general term for any process of removing the association between a set of identifying data and the data subject. This document describes the use of deidentification with the goal of preventing or limiting disclosure risks to

Vision on metal additive manufacturing: Developments, challenges and future trends

Author(s)
Alain Bernard, Jean-Pierre Kruth, Jian Cao, Gisela Lanza, Stefania Bruschi, Marion Merklein, Tom Vaneker, Michael Schmidt, John Sutherland, Alkan Donmez, Eraldo da Silva
Additive Manufacturing (AM) is one of the disruptive technologies to fabricate components, parts, assemblies or tools in various fields of application due to its main characteristics such as direct digital manufacturing, ability to offer both internal and

Comparison of Ice-on-Coil Thermal Energy Storage Models

September 13, 2023
Author(s)
Kalyan Ram Kanagala, Amanda Pertzborn
Data collected from the Intelligent Building Agents Laboratory (IBAL) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) are used to develop a physics-based and four machine learning models of ice-on-coil thermal energy storage (TES): linear

Flame Propagation in Blends of R152a, R134a, and R-1234yf with Air

September 13, 2023
Author(s)
Dennis Kim, Valeri I. Babushok, Michael Hegetschweiler, Gregory T. Linteris
Laminar burning velocity measurements have been made using a constant volume experiment with dry air and the refrigerant R152a (CH3CHF2), pure and blended with R134a (CH2FCF3), or R1234yf (CF3CFCH2). The resulting burning velocity data deduced from the

Ab initio Calculation of Fluid Properties for Precision Metrology

September 12, 2023
Author(s)
Giovanni Garberoglio, Christof Gaiser, Roberto Maria Gavioso, Allan H. Harvey, Robert Hellmann, Bogumil Jeziorski, Karsten Meier, Michael R. Moldover, Laurent Pitre, Krzysztof Szalewicz, Robin Underwood
Recent advances regarding the interplay between ab initio calculations and metrology are reviewed, with particular emphasis on gas-based techniques used for temperature and pressure measurements. Since roughly 2010, several thermophysical quantities – in

CCQM_Retrospectoscope Reference Manual: A detailed reference to the CCQM_Retrospectoscope, a suite of graphical tools for the meta-analysis of measurement results from CCQM studies

September 12, 2023
Author(s)
David L. Duewer, Michael Nelson, Christina Cecelski
The CCQM_Retrospectoscope system combines a nominally complete database of results from Consultative Committee for the Amount of Substance: Metrology in Chemistry and Biology (CCQM) studies with a number of graphical tools for trying to make sense of the

Repeatability of Contactless and Contact Fingerprint Capture

September 12, 2023
Author(s)
John M. Libert, Shahram Orandi, John Grantham, Kenneth Ko, Bruce Bandini
A new generation of contactless fingerprint capture devices has recently emerged. These devices provide the ability to capture a fingerprint without making physical contact with the finger. There is anecdotal evidence that the process of capturing a

Non-flammable Low-GWP Refrigerant Blends to Replace HFC-134a

September 11, 2023

Harrison M. Skye, Piotr A. Domanski, Mark O. McLinden, Valeri I. Babushok, Ian Bell, Tara Fortin, Michael Hegetschweiler, Mark A. Kedzierski, Dennis Kim, Lingnan Lin, Gregory T. Linteris, Stephanie L. Outcalt, Vance (Wm.) Payne, Richard A. Perkins, Aaron Rowane
Non-flammable, lower global-warming-potential (GWP) refrigerants are needed to replace HFC-134a (GWP=1300) in military equipment. We previously used thermodynamic cycle simulations to screen 100 000+ refrigerant blends and identified 23 candidate

Target and Suspect Screening Integrated with Machine Learning to Discover Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substance Source Fingerprints

September 11, 2023
Author(s)
Nayantara Joseph, Trever Schwichtenberg, Dunping Cao, Gerrad Jones, Alix Rodowa, Joe Charbonnet, Christopher Higgins, Damian Helbling, Jennifer Field
This study elucidates per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) fingerprints for specific PFAS source types. Ninety-two samples were collected from aqueous film-forming foam impacted groundwater (AFFF-GW), landfill leachate, biosolids leachate, municipal

Evaluation of 3D Curvature and Lead Stress of Transvenous Right Ventricular Leads: The Human Use Conditions Study (HUCS)

September 9, 2023
Author(s)
Jonathan Piccini, Tim Quinn, Lucas Koepke, James Dawson, Nicki Mara, Jason Santelli, Diane Muff, Jordan Savela, Alex Felber, Michael Friedrich, Jens Rump, Felix Tschentscher, Jake Benzing, Charles Swerdlow
Transvenous leads of cardiac implanted electronic device (CIED) systems are meant to last the life of the patient, but they are at risk for conductor fatigue fracture from applied alternating stress. This stress depends on lead design and use conditions

Gravimetric deposition of microliter drops with radiometric confirmation

September 9, 2023
Author(s)
Denis E. Bergeron, Richard Essex, Svetlana Nour, Gordon A. Shaw, R. Michael Verkouteren, Ryan P. Fitzgerald
A manual gravimetric dispensing technique is demonstrated using a micropipettor modified for use with removeable microcapillaries. Liquid scintillation sources were prepared from a well-characterized 241Am reference solution, providing a radiometric check

Multi'omic Characterization of Human Whole Stool RGTMs

Amanda L. Bayless, Sandra M. Da Silva, Clay Davis, Abraham Kuri Cruz, Tracey Schock, Stephanie Servetas, Paulina Piotrowski
The gut microbiome plays a critical role in a vast and disparate set of health and disease states, including cancer and obesity. Human fecal is a complex mixture including microbes, proteins, undigested plant matter and fat content according to the diet

Open-path measurement of stable water isotopologues using mid-infrared dual-comb spectroscopy

September 8, 2023
