New Reference Standards and Artifacts for Nanoscale Physical Property Characterization

January 1, 2006
Author(s)
Jon R. Pratt, John A. Kramar, Gordon A. Shaw, Richard S. Gates, Paul Rice, John M. Moreland
This paper provides an overview of calibration artifacts being developed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) that are intended to aid the accurate determination of nanoscale physical properties across a broad range of applications

Use of Transfer Artifacts for Small Force Measurement

January 1, 2006
Author(s)
Gordon A. Shaw, Jon R. Pratt, Richard S. Gates, Mark Reitsma
In order for the atomic microscope (AFM) to be used in truly quantatitive studies, a basis within the international system of units (SI) must be established. In order to do this, the microfabricated cantilevers typically used for AFM force measurements

Mechanical Stability of Collagen Fibril Networks

November 1, 2005
Author(s)
Gordon A. Shaw, Dennis P. McDaniel, John T. Elliott, Alessandro Tona, Anne L. Plant
Thin films of type 1 collagen fibril networks fabricated on alkanethiol-functionalized surfaces have been previously shown to provide an excellent protein matrix for cultured cells in applications such as drug toxicity studies and studies of cell signaling

Development of Traceable Small Force Standards

June 1, 2005
Author(s)
Gordon A. Shaw, Jon R. Pratt
Although instrumented indentation and atomic forcve microscope (AFM) are utilized extensively for the measurement of forces in the piconewton to millinewton regime, accurate calibration of these forces remains an obstacle to quantitative research

Incoporating Process Planning into Conceptual Design

September 1, 1999
Author(s)
Shaw C. Feng, Gordon A. Shaw, Walter W. Nederbragt, Serge Kaing, Ram D. Sriram
This paper describes recent developments in the Design and Process Planning Integration (DPPI) project at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The project addresses the need for improved communication between design and process

Conceptual Process Planning - A Definition and Functional Decomposition

August 1, 1999
Author(s)
Shaw C. Feng, Gordon A. Shaw, Yuyun Zhang
Conceptual process planning is an activity for designers to evaluate manufacturability and the manufacturing cost in the early design stage for mechanical parts production. Since major manufacturing costs of a product are committed in product specification
