The TOLNet 2.0 Website: How an API Can Promote Open Science and FAIR Principles
The Tropospheric Ozone Lidar Network (TOLNet) has generated over a decade of ozone vertical profile data products over North America. The science value of the TOLNet data has been demonstrated in numerous peer-reviewed publications on air quality and other ozone relevant research. To support the broad spectrum of data use, the TOLNet team launched a major effort to upgrade the web-based data repository aiming to enhance the data discoverability and to enable machine-to-machine data upload and download processes. Specifically, the TOLNet website included an application programming interface (API), which supports machine-to-machine data search and data download. The API also extracts selected variables from the files, which can be retrieved as JSON objects and used to create data displays without having to download or open the underlying files. The TOLNet science team members can also use the API for automated data upload, including a data file scanning feature to ensure data product integrity. To be presented will include a summary of key features of data repositories, an actual use case of machine-to-machine data access/use, as well as our journey to make TOLNet data more FAIR, i.e., more findable, accessible, interoperable, and (re)usable.

A new database website for nuclear level densities
We introduce a new open-access, web-based database (http://nld.ascsn.net), Current Archive of Nuclear Density of Levels (CANDL), that hosts experimental nuclear level density (NLD) datasets from a variety of techniques and energy ranges. Built using the Dash framework in Python, the database is designed to be interactive and user-friendly, allowing researchers to search, visualize, fit, and export NLD data with minimal effort. This resource includes data extracted from evaporation spectra, Oslo method variants, and other experimental techniques that cover excitation energies beyond the neutron resonance region. The database supports on-the-fly fitting with two widely-used phenomenological models—the Constant Temperature (CT) model and the Back-Shifted Fermi Gas (BSFG) model—selected for their simplicity and computational efficiency. Future versions aim to include additional datasets and model types, as well as easy-to-use interfaces to data science techniques. Here, this platform offers a vital tool for the nuclear physics, astrophysics, medicine, and reactor design communities.

Fall 2016 Solicitation Projects Website Info
Spark-ignition engines are the backbone behind people transportation around the world. The efficiency of spark-ignition engines is limited in practice by variations between engine cycles and cylinders within an engine that result from the manufacturing processes/tolerances. These variations impact knock limits and dilution tolerance, which results in more conservative settings for design and calibration settings, such as compression ratio, valve timing, and exhaust gas recirculation rates. Engine variations also have a significant impact on emissions generation, which can have a secondary impact on efficiency. A deeper understanding of the relative importance of these variations and their interactions on the charge preparation process can guide future decisions on machining tolerances and control strategies. This project will develop simulation tools and methodology to include the effects of some key manufacturing tolerances and their impact on engine performance and emissions.

Demonstration of Optimal Benchmark Selection Website and Validation of the q c Coverage Metric Using HEU-SOL-THERM-013-003 Experiment
In the work documented in this interim report, the experiment selection toolkit web site was demonstrated and q C coverage metric methodology was validated for IEU-MET-FAST-002-001, MIX-COMP-THERM 004-004, and HEU-SOL-THERM-013-003 experiments. 𝑞 𝐶 is an information-theoretic measure based on mutual information that quantifies the ability of candidate benchmark experiments to reduce the bias and uncertainty of a target criticality safety application. The metric and an accompanying open-source Python toolkit with a web-based interface were tested against a benchmark set of 425 experiments drawn from the International Criticality Safety Benchmark Evaluation Project Handbook. The interface is hosted at https://edim.covdef.com. It accepts sensitivity data files produced by the TSUNAMI-IP module of the SCALE code system and supports both (i) deterministic analysis using the ENDF/B-VII.0 covariance library and (ii) stochastic analysis based on user-supplied keff samples. Demonstrations on representative applications across a range of material composition, spectrum, and form show that q C -guided benchmark selection achieves greater uncertainty reduction with fewer experiments and yields more stable posterior bias and uncertainty estimates than traditional similarity coefficient ( c k )–based selection, while also capturing valuable low-ck experiments that one-to-one metrics overlook.

Website for the Astrochemistry Laboratory, Astrophysics Branch, Space Sciences Division
The Astrochemistry Laboratory in the Astrophysics Branch (SSA) of the Space Sciences Division at NASA's Ames Research Center specializes in the study of extraterrestrial materials and their analogs. The staff has pioneered laboratory studies of space environments including interstellar, cometary, and planetary ices, simulations of the so-called 'Unidentified' Infrared Emission Bands and Diffuse Interstellar Bands using PAHs (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons) and PAH-related materials, and has extensive experience with low-temperature spectroscopy and astronomical observation. Important discoveries made by the Astrochemistry Group include: (1) The recognition that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and their ions are common in space; (2) The identification of a major fraction of the known molecular species frozen in interstellar/pre-cometary ices; (3) The recognition that a significant fraction of the carbon in the interstellar medium is carried by both microdiamonds and organic materials; (4) The expansion of the types of molecules expected to be synthesized in interstellar/pre-cometary ices. These could be delivered to the early Earth (or other body) and influence the origin or early evolution of life.

Summary of ADTT Website Functionality and Features
This report summarizes development of the ADTT web-based design environment by the ELORET team in 2000. The Advanced Design Technology Testbed had been in development for several years, with demonstration applications restricted to aerodynamic analyses of subsonic aircraft. The key changes achieved this year were improvements in Web-based accessibility, evaluation of collaborative visualization, remote invocation of geometry updates and performance analysis, and application to aerospace system analysis. Significant effort was also devoted to post-processing of data, chiefly through comparison of similar data for alternative vehicle concepts. Such comparison is an essential requirement for designers to make informed choices between alternatives. The next section of this report provides more discussion of the goals for ADTT development. Section 3 provides screen shots from a sample session in the ADTT environment, including Login and navigation to the project of interest, data inspection, analysis execution and output evaluation. The following section provides discussion of implementation details and recommendations for future development of the software and information technologies that provide the key functionality of the ADTT system. Section 5 discusses the integration architecture for the system, which links machines running different operating systems and provides unified access to data stored in distributed locations. Security is a significant issue for this system, especially for remote access to NAS machines, so Section 6 discusses several architectural considerations with respect to security. Additional details of some aspects of ADTT development are included in Appendices.
