This tool is used to implement Monte Carlo analysis, which uses probabilistic sensitivity analysis to account for uncertainty. This tool is developed to follow the simulation segment of ASTM E1369. This technique involves a method of model sampling. Specification involves defining which variables are to be simulated, the distribution of each of these variables, and the number of iterations performed. The software then randomly samples from the probabilities for each input variable of interest. Three common distributions that are used include triangular, normal, and uniform.

The Manufacturing Cost Guide is a tool that estimates the costs that US manufacturers face and can be used to help gauge the potential returns on manufacturing industry research projects through cost reductions. These costs are grouped into various standardized categories such as the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) and the Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) system along with other non-standardized costs.

The tool can be used to answer questions such as:

Twenty-two 2.7 m by 3.7 m shear wall specimens consisting of 150 mm wide CFS framing were tested. All walls were designed to achieve a 1-hour fire-resistance rating per American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standard E119. Heating was applied to the side of the wall opposite to the side where the shear-resisting elements are located; it is assumed that the shear-resisting elements line an egress corridor and the fire occurs in a room adjacent to the corridor.

The open dataset accompanying An Inter-Laboratory Study of Zn-Sn-Ti-O Thin Films using High-throughput Experimental Methods (https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acscombsci.8b00158).High-throughput experimental (HTE) techniques are an increasingly important way to accelerate the rate of materials research and development for many technological applications.

This tutorial provides mechanical drawings, electrical schematics, parts lists, STL files for 3D-printed parts, IGS files, and instructions for automated machining necessary for construction of a dual-protease, subzero, liquid chromatography system for hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry. Electrical schematics for construction of a multi-zone temperature controller that regulate to ±0.1 oC are also included in this tutorial.

This dataset represents a reference implementation of the Unit Manufacturing Process (UMP) information model presented in ASTM E3012, Standard Guide for Characterizing Environmental Aspects of Manufacturing Processes. A version of this schema is used in the UMP Builder, a web-based toolkit for recording and storing UMP models.

Please refer to the publication, particularly the information in the Supplementary Information, for details on the model configuration.Footprint files:Footprints generated every 30 seconds along flight paths using different models are archived as netCDF files. Each tar.gz file contains all the netCDF footprints for a particular flight and model combination, and is named after the model combination and flight date (YYYYMMDD).

2D image and 3D topography measurements of fired bullets and cartridge cases. Regions of interest include land impressions, breechface, firing pins, and aperture shears.

This project involved the analysis and optical modeling of atmospheric dust particles collected at Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii. Dust from the Asian mainland was identified in filter samples with computer-controlled scanning electron microscopy (CC-SEM). Individual Asian dust and marine background air particles were further examined using focused ion-beam (FIB) SEM and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The particles were heterogeneous in that they had multiple mineral phases, including an iron-containing phase which was compositionally minor but optically important.
