Assessing girth weld quality of pipeline steels and their susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement

August 28, 2024
Author(s)
Zack Buck, Newell Moser, Nicholas Derimow, May Ling Martin, Damian Lauria, Enrico Lucon, Douglas Stalheim, Peter Bradley, Matthew Connolly
Hydrogen has long been considered a viable carbon-free option for ever-increasing societal desires to transform our energy infrastructure towards more renewable and alternative technologies. However, the effects of hydrogen-assisted damage mechanisms that

Community Resilience Economic Decision Guide and Tool: Research Overview

August 20, 2024
Author(s)
Christina Gore, Jennifer Helgeson
Community resilience planning often requires quantifying and understanding the trade-offs that communities make between the benefits and costs of different resilience actions. The Economic Decision Guide walks communities through the steps to evaluate

A Standards-Guided Approach for Formalizing Product Circularity Assessment Metrics

August 19, 2024
Author(s)
Junwon Ko, Sandwana Sneethan, Gisele Bortolaz Guedes, Fazleena Badurdeen, I.S. Jawahir, Buddhika Hapuwatte, KC Morris
The industrial transition towards a more sustainable Circular Economy (CE) emphasizes the need for products that align with CE principles and robust methods for assessing their circularity performance. However, ambiguities between metrics vs. indicators

Model for the Viscosity and Thermal Conductivity of Tetrahydrofuran

August 17, 2024
Author(s)
Sofia Sotiriadou, Eleftheria Ntonti, Marc Assael, Konstantinos Antoniadis, Marcia L. Huber
We present a hybrid predictive-correlative engineering model for the calculation of the viscosity and thermal conductivity of tetrahydrofuran (THF) in the fluid phase. It incorporates critically evaluated experimental data where available, and predictive

Zero-temperature entanglement membranes in quantum circuits

August 13, 2024
Author(s)
Grace Sommers, Sarang Gopalakrishnan, Michael Gullans, David Huse
In chaotic quantum systems, the entanglement of a region A can be described in terms of the surface tension of a spacetime membrane pinned to the boundary of A. Here, we interpret the tension of this "entanglement membrane" in terms of the rate at which

A Review of Community Resilience Indicators Using a Systems Measurement Framework

August 5, 2024
Author(s)
Michael Gerst, Maria Dillard, Emily Walpole, Jarrod Loerzel
As natural disasters have increased in frequency and magnitude, there has been an increasing need to understand what underlying factors are likely to lead to faster recovery and more resilient communities. One way of addressing this need has been to

Contactless Fingerprint Capture and Data Interchange Best Practice Recommendation Revision 1

August 5, 2024
Author(s)
Shahram Orandi, Craig I. Watson, Jennifer Stathakis, John M. Libert, Gregory Fiumara, John Grantham
While contactless fingerprint capture devices stand to provide for many benefits, images from this nascent technology are sufficiently different than traditional contact-collected images thereby warranting the separation of these new contactless

The Proteomics Standards Initiative standardized formats for spectral libraries and fragment ion peak annotations: mzSpecLib and mzPAF

August 5, 2024
Author(s)
Joshua Klein, Henry Lam, Tytus Mak, Wout Bittremieux, Yasset Perez-Riverol, Ralf Gabriels, Jim Shofstahl, Helge Hecht, Pierre-Alain Binz, Shin Kawano, Tim Van Den Bossche, Jeremy Carver, Ben Neely, Luis Mendoza, Tomi Suomi, Tine Claeys, Thomas Payne, Douwe Schulte, Zhi Sun, Nils Hoffmann, Yunping Zhu, Steffen Neumann, Andrew Jones, Nuno Bandeira, Juan Antonio Vizcaino, Eric Deutsch
Mass spectral libraries are collections of reference spectra, usually associated with specific analytes from which the spectra were generated, that are used for further downstream analysis of new spectra. There are many different formats used for encoding

Optical n(p, T_90) measurement suite 3: results at l = 1542 nm

August 3, 2024
Author(s)
Patrick Egan, Yuanchao Yang
Single-isotherm n(p, T90) results are reported for the gases Ar, N2, H2O, and D2O at vacuum wavelength λ = 1542.383(1) nm. The argon and nitrogen isotherms were measured near 303 K; the water isotherms were measured near 373 K. Combined with the two

Metric Conversion Card

August 2, 2024
Author(s)
Elizabeth Benham, Kristen Dill
NIST SP 365, Metric Conversion Card is a laminated wallet size card includes an 8 cm and 80 mm ruler with approximate unit conversion factors between common International System of Units (SI) and U.S. customary measurement units for length, area, mass

Construction of Highly Porous and Robust Hydrogen-Bonded Organic Framework for High-Capacity Clean Energy Gas Storage

August 1, 2024
Author(s)
Jia-Xin Wang, Xu Zhang, Changhao Jiang, Teng-Fei Zhang, Jiyan Pei, Wei Zhou, Taner N. Yildirim, Banglin Chen, Guodong Qian, Bin Li
Development of highly porous and robust hydrogen bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) for high-pressure methane and hydrogen storage remains a grand challenge due to the fragile nature of hydrogen bonds. Herein, we report a strategy of constructing the double

Orthogonal Determination of Competing Surfactant Adsorption onto Single-Wall Carbon Nanotubes During Aqueous Two-Polymer Phase Extraction via Fluorescence Spectroscopy and Analytical Ultracentrifugation

July 31, 2024
Author(s)
Christopher Sims, Jeffrey Fagan
A combination of analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC) and fluorescence spectroscopy are utilized to orthogonally probe compositions of adsorbed surfactant layers on the surface of (7,5) species single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) under conditions known

Characterizing the Broadband RF Permittivity of 3D-Integrated Layers in a Glass Wafer Stack from 100 MHz to 30 GHz
