VEESA R package

SAND2024-04584O R package for applying the VEESA pipeline method is a technique used for explainable machine learning with functional data. The VEESA pipeline makes use of the elastic-shape analysis framework for functional data. It also implements functional principal component analysis and permutation feature importance.

STPPHAWKES

SAND2024-08541O STTPHAWKES software solution is a Bayesian estimation approach to a Hawkes process model that treats missing data as a latent variable in the estimation. The open-source software will be released to the R CRAN repository and Sandia National Labs’ Github.

High Accuracy Thermal Expansion Measurement At Cryogenic Temperatures

A new, interferometer based system for measuring thermal expansion to an absolute accuracy of 20 ppb or better at cryogenic temperatures has been developed. Data from NIST Copper SRM 736 measured from room temperature to 15 K will be presented along with data from many other materials including beryllium, ULE, Zerodur, and composite materials. Particular attention will be given to a study by the Space Optics Manufacturing Technology Center (SOMTC) investigating the variability of ULE and beryllium materials used in the AMSD program. Approximately 20 samples of each material, tested from room temperature to below 30 K are compared as a function of billet location.
