Learning to Recognize Distributional Functions

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
J E. Devaney, L Hunter, James J. Filliben
This paper introduces a novel methodology that enables recognition of distributional functions without doing a fit of the data to the distribution. This methodology combines the technique of equation signatures, which uses coefficient independent

Robust Design of an Evolutionary Algorithm for Machining Optimization Problems

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
Jean-Louis Vigouroux, Laurent Deshayes, Sebti Foufou, James J. Filliben, Lawrence A. Welsch, Alkan Donmez
In this paper, a methodology for the robust design of an evolutionary algorithm is presented. The evolutionary algorithm (EA) is studied with the intention to solve machining optimization problems having highly non linear constraints and uncertainties. A

Thermal Properties of Pyroceram Code 9606

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
Daniel R. Flynn, James H. Yen, James J. Filliben, Robert R. Zarr, E M. Hohlfeld
In the late 1950s, Corning Glass Works measured the heat capacity, thermal diffusivity, and thermal expansion of Pyroceram Code 9606. In the early 1960s the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) measured the thermal diffusivity and the thermal conductivity of

Performance Evaluation of the NDN Data Plane Using Statistical Model Checking

July 19, 2021
Author(s)
Siham Khoussi, Lotfi Benmohamed, Abdella Battou, Junxiao Shi, James J. Filliben, Saddek Bensalem, Ayoub Nouri
Named Data Networking (NDN) is an emerging technology for a future Internet architecture that addresses weaknesses of the Internet Protocol (IP). Since Internet users and applications have demonstrated an ever-increasing need for high speed packet

Role of Uncertainty in the Durability of Composite Material Systems

August 17, 2020
Author(s)
Jeffrey T. Fong, Nathanael A. Heckert, James J. Filliben
This paper is a chapter invited by the editor of a book to be published by Elsevier in 2020. The title of the book is "Durability of Composite Systems," and the editor is Prof. Kenneth Reifsnider, N.A.E., University of Texas at Arlington, Arlington, TX, U

The Certification of Standard Reference Material 1979: Powder Diffraction Line Profile Standard for Crystallite Size Analysis

July 31, 2020
Author(s)
James Cline, Marcus Mendenhall, Joseph J. Ritter, David R. Black, Albert Henins, John E. Bonevich, Pamela S. Whitfield, James J. Filliben
This rather long-standing project has resulted in a National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Standard Reference Material (SRM) for the analysis of crystallite size from a consideration of powder diffraction line profile broadening. It consists

Assessing the Predictive Capability for Real-Scale Residential Upholstered Furniture Mock-Up Fires using Cone Calorimeter Measurements. Part 1: Real-Scale Experiments

February 10, 2020
Author(s)
William M. Pitts, Martin Werrel, Marco G. Fernandez, Mary A. Long, Evan A. Eisenberg, James J. Filliben, Cory D. Runyon
This is the first of three reports describing a study designed to assess the feasibility of utilizing small-scale measurements in a cone calorimeter as inputs for predicting the burning behavior of real-scale residential upholstered furniture (RUF). Here

THE CERTIFICATION OF STANDARD REFERENCE MATERIAL 660C FOR POWDER DIFFRACTION

January 15, 2020
Author(s)
David R. Black, Marcus H. Mendenhall, Albert Henins, James J. Filliben, James P. Cline
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) certifies a suite of Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) to evaluate specific aspects of instrument performance of both x-ray and neutron powder diffractometers. This report describes SRM 660c, the
