Materials discovery and development necessarily begins with the preparation and identification of product phase(s). Crystalline compounds can be identified by their characteristic diffraction patterns using X-rays, neutrons, and or electrons. An estimated 20,000 X-ray diffractometers and a comparable number of electron microscopes are used daily in materials research and development laboratories for this purpose.

This tool calculates metrics for investment analysis documented in NIST Advanced manufacturing Series 200-5. It calculates net present value, internal rate of return, and payback period along with executing sensitivity analysis using Monte Carlo techniques. The tool helps to identify the most economical projects/investments. For instance, it could be used to identify the most economical heating and cooling system or it might be used to rank a set of potential investments.

NeXLCore.jl represents the basic physics related data and algorithms necessary to interpret and understand X-ray emission.

The first version of HVACSIM+, which stands for "HVAC SIMulation PLUS other systems", was introduced by National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 1985 as a computer simulation tool to simulate entire building systems. Since then, the HVACSIM+ computer program package and manuals have been distributed to researchers, students, and consultants in more than 40 countries around the world.

This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use as a primary calibration standard for the quantitative determination of iodide. A unit of SRM 3180 consists of five 5 mL, sealed, amber, borosilicate glass ampoules of solution prepared gravimetrically to contain a known mass fraction of iodide. The matrix of the solution is water containing sodium sulfite at a concentration of approximately 0.01 mol/L and sodium hydroxide at a concentration of approximately 0.005 mol/L. This data is public in the Certificate of Analysis for this material.
