Block Island Project Documentation, Presentations, and Reports

This dataset contains documentation and outreach materials from the RODEO project at the Block Island Wind Farm, including the presentations, report figures, and summary materials produced across the monitoring and modeling effort. It complements the RODEO data datasets (acoustic monitoring, propagation modeling, analysis, environmental, survey, geospatial, bathymetry, and seafloor) and contains documents and figures rather than instrument or model data.

In Vitro Selection of Antibodies Targeting Yersinia pestis Membrane Lipids Using Nanodisc-Based Antigen Presentation

Proteins are the most common targets for antibody discovery and vaccine development, but their sequence variability can limit the breadth of resulting antigens. Lipids represent an alternative class of antigens due to their structural conservation and roles in host–pathogen interactions. Here, we describe the development and optimization of an in vitro antibody selection workflow using lipid-containing nanodiscs as antigen presentation platforms to enable phage and yeast display selections under conditions adapted for these non-protein targets. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) nanodiscs were first used as a model system to evaluate selection strategies, including competitive and subtractive approaches to reduce non-specific binders, yielding peptide and single-chain variable fragment (scFv) binders that were affinity matured to improve binding signals. The same approach was subsequently used to select scFv antibodies that recognize lipid nanodiscs prepared from Yersinia pestis membrane lipid extracts. These antibodies show binding to lipid nanodiscs derived from Y. pestis, with evidence of selectivity relative to control nanodiscs. Overall, this work establishes a workflow for antibody selection against lipid-containing nanodisc antigens and highlights practical considerations associated with these targets. The approach may be useful for generating affinity reagents to membrane-associated lipids, although further characterization is required to define antigen specificity and functional activity.

Expert Elicitation for Tidal Energy Levelized Cost of Energy: Present and Future

In accordance with the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA), H2O annually assesses marine energy technology development resulting from government-funded research and development programs and strategy. For GPRA reporting, H2O uses the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) - which represents the total system cost per unit of energy produced - to measure the progression of marine energy technology development, assess the impact of their research and development programs, and identify future research priorities. To support H2O's GPRA reporting requirements and inform future strategy, the National Laboratory of the Rockies conducted a tidal energy LCOE expert elicitation study to estimate present and future LCOE[AB2.1]. This report describes the motivation and background for the elicitation study, the methodology used to conduct the study, and the study results. It also provides future recommendations for accelerated tidal energy LCOE reduction based on feedback from study participants.

Presentation: SMR Current Status: Development Needs and Global Perspectives

Defined as nuclear reactors with a power output up to 300 megawatts electrical (MWe) by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and targeted for multipurpose applications, small modular reactors (SMRs) have been recognized as a very promising, clean, affordable, and sustainable energy source by many countries. At present, more than 80 SMRs are under design, development, demonstration, deployment, and beyond (4D+) phases worldwide. This paper focuses on the current world status of SMRs and focuses on the necessary developments to accelerate the process of adopting SMRs as a major energy source globally. SMRs are not a new concept, but they do represent a new vision for older concepts if the challenges inherent within them are mitigated with strategic and realistic solution approaches. The major challenges for SMRs 4D+ like any new reactors are: (a) qualifying the advanced fuel-to-reactor design; (b) supporting rapid scaled/prototypic experimentations; (c) maintaining local and global codes, standards, and licensing; (d) supply chain issues; (e) effective cradle-to-grave nuclear fuel cycle and fuel material transportation, and (f) mitigating financial and environmental risks. These upfront challenges can be mitigated with a synergistic solution approach among the various stakeholders: industry, academia, research, government, and international entities.

Blind QC trend presentation

Blind testing is used to evaluate performance of the radiobioassay laboratory. DOE-STD-1112-2019 requires a radiobioassay program to perform blind testing at a documented frequency including accuracy, false positive, false negative, and sensitivity evaluations. INL trends accuracy determinations over time for bias, agreement, and precision. Trends have been identified for certain isotopes in urine and feces that have not been fully explained. This presentation will review those identified trends and discuss possible causes and solutions.

Internship Presentation: Reactor System Facility Modification to Detect Compromised Human Machine Interfaces

This study presents a multi-layered Industrial Control System (ICS)/Operational Technology (OT) security architecture aimed at detecting and mitigating compromised Human Machine Interface (HMI) and Instrumentation & Control (I&C) systems within the Flowing Autoclave System (FAS) at Idaho National Laboratory (INL). The approach combines network security solutions, hash-based algorithms, and blockchain technologies to verify system integrity and provide an immutable record of network activity. This integrated three-pronged strategy enhances the detection of system compromises, enabling preemptive action before significant damage occurs.

CMI Winter Meeting 2025 Presentation

Lanthanides are important to many technologies including magnets used in high efficiency traction motors. While common in the environment and industrial waste streams, lanthanides are often present at very low concentrations. This work demonstrates synergistic lanthanide recovery from an aqueous magnet leachate to single ppm concentrations using Na2SO4 addition and subsequent DME-FC treatment. It was found that combining DME-FC with low concentrations of Na2SO4 (~0.1 M) results in synergistic isolation of lanthanides while making use of Na2SO4, an excessive byproduct of hydrometallurgical metal production. Combined Na2SO4 + DME reduced lanthanide metal ion's (Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, and Ho) solubilities by 1,000 - 25,000x with final concentrations ranging from 2 ppm to 200 ppm. This can be compared to 0.1 M Na2SO4 alone providing a 10 - 200x reduction and DME providing a 100 - 1,500x reduction in lanthanide solubilities. Final solution concentrations of lanthanides were 99.8% lower than what could not be achieved with either individual process. The results also reveal different periodic trends in the solubility reduction for DME and Na2SO4.

Constraining GREA, an alternative theory accounting for the present cosmic acceleration

The origin of the Universe's late-time accelerated expansion remains unknown. The General Relativistic Entropic Acceleration (GREA) theory offers a compelling alternative to $Λ$CDM, attributing cosmic acceleration to entropy growth associated with cosmic and black hole horizons, without invoking a cosmological constant. We test GREA against the latest DESI DR2 Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO), multiple Type Ia supernova compilations (Union3, Pantheon$\texttt{+}$, DES-SN5YR), and cosmic microwave background (CMB) distance measurements. While GREA is not nested within $Λ$CDM, it achieves a comparable goodness-of-fit, highlighting its potential as a theoretically motivated framework that circumvents some of the fine-tuning issues of the standard $Λ$CDM cosmology. We find that the best-fit model features a transient phantom crossing at $z \lesssim 2$, with $w_a\equiv \mathrm{d} w(a=1)/\mathrm{d}a \simeq-0.3$, in good agreement with observations. However, its present-day value $w_0\equiv w(z=0)$ is tightly constrained to be $w_0\simeq-1$. Upcoming low-redshift (i.e. $z < 1$) cosmological probes, from both background and perturbations, will offer promising avenues for further exploring the viability of the GREA theory.
