This folder contains image data sets from 14 separate serial sectioning sessions. The entire data folder consists of 1379 8 bit tif images and is 47.3 GB in size. Serial sectioning was performed using FEI Helios 660 NanoLab focused ion beam scanning electron microscope (FIB SEM) and Auto Slice and View G3 software. The sample was a heavy metal stained and resin embedded Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) that were exposed to 60 nm Au nanoparticles. Detailed descriptions of the worm preparation and resin block processing are described in Johnson, M.E. et al. (ACS Nano, 2016).

NIST is developing metrics and test methods to benchmark the performance of robotic systems when performing manufacturing tasks. The ability to perform simple insertions is critical for robotic systems in manufacturing. A simple peg-in-hole test was designed to measure a robotic system's capability for performing these simple insertions. The dataset captures the performance metrics of a robotic system outfitted with a robotic hand and a robotic gripper to study the effect of next-generation robotic hand technology versus conventional parallel gripper technologies.

This software provides a framework to generate events with both application payload identification and timestamps. Events information is logged at each producer and consumer. The logs can be used to derive latency and reliability metrics for cyber-physical systems experiments in which wireless communication is used for messaging.

Hestia Project quantifies, simulates and visualizes greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide emitted in urban regions. Los Angeles basin activity is provided at the 1 km grid spatial resolution, and at temporal resolutions of hourly or annually. Hestia-LA urban CO2 emissions inventory builds upon work conducted at the national scale (Vulcan Project) that includes various sectorial attributions. Hestia's high spatial and temporal resolution datasets are currently available for 2010 to 2015, in UTC or local time.

Hestia Fossil Fuel Carbon Dioxide Emissions Inventory for Urban Regions (Hestia FFCO2) provides data products for Los Angeles Basin, Northeast corridor, Indianapolis, and other U.S. Cities. Hestia FFCO2 datasets quantify greenhouse gases (GHG), such as carbon dioxide, emitted by urban regions, since cities are major contributors of anthropogenic GHG emissions. The Hestia FFCO2 datasets provide high spatial and temporal resolution CO2 concentrations at sub-county resolutions and annual/hourly time scales, specific to the region.

Hestia Project quantifies, simulates and visualizes greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide emitted in urban regions. Indianapolis data is provided at the county level (200 m grid resolution), and at hourly and yearly time frames. It builds upon work conducted at the national scale by the Vulcan Project. These high spatial and temporal resolution datasets are available from 2010 to 2015.

Hestia Project quantifies, simulates and visualizes greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide emitted in urban regions. Baltimore, Maryland activity is provided at the county level (200 m grid resolution), and at hourly and yearly time frames. It builds upon work conducted at the national scale by the Vulcan Project. These high spatial and temporal resolution datasets are available from 2010.

Hestia Project quantifies, simulates and visualizes greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide emitted in urban regions. Salt Lake City, Utah activity is provided at the county level (0.002 degree grid resolution), and at hourly and yearly time frames. It builds upon work conducted at the national scale by the Vulcan Project. These high spatial and temporal resolution datasets are available for 2002, 2010, 2011, and 2012.

A method was developed to reduce the point-based registration error by restoring the rigid body condition (RRBC method). Registration is the process of transforming one coordinate frame to another coordinate frame. The coordinate frame from which points are transformed is called the working frame and the coordinate frame to which points are transformed is called the destination frame. The RRBC method can be used to reduce the uncertainty of a hole location and thus, improve the success rate for insertion tasks.

In this study, a rail of a linear axis testbed was intentionally degraded to various levels, affecting the carriage motion, which can be deduced with either an inertial measurement unit (IMU) or a laser-based reference system. The rail was degraded over a 10-cm-long region. Thus, the two trucks that move on the rail interact with this region of the rail, changing the translational and angular error motions of the carriage. To mechanically simulate spalling, a handheld grinder was used to wear the surface of the raceway groove of the rail.
