Atomic Structure and Cohesion Energy of ZnSe and CdSe Clusters

The first-principle calculations of the atomic and electronic structures of fullerene-like Zn{sub n}Se{sub n} and Cd{sub n}Se{sub n} have been carried out for n = 12, 36, 48, and 60. A model of two-layer fullerene-like (ZnSe){sub 60} and (CdSe){sub 60} clusters with mixed sp{sup 2}/sp{sup 3} bonds has been built for the first time. Ab initio calculations are performed in terms of the electron density functional and the hybrid B3LYP functional theory. The stability and the energy gap width of the clusters are estimated in the dependence on the number of atoms in a cluster and its geometry. It is shown that the relaxation of 1.7–1.8-nm two-layer (ZnSe){sub 60} and (CdSe){sub 60} clusters with mixed sp{sup 2}/sp{sup 3} bonds is accompanied by splitting out of the external layer.

A transcriptome-SNP-derived linkage map of Apios americana (potato bean) provides insights about genome re-organization and synteny conservation in the phaseoloid legumes

Apios ( Apios americana ; “apios”), a tuberous perennial legume in the Phaseoleae tribe, was widely used as a food by Native Americans. Work in the last 40 years has led to several improved breeding lines. Aspects of the pollination biology (complex floral structure and tripping mechanism) have made controlled crosses difficult, and the previous reports indicated that the plant is likely primarily an outcrosser. We used a pseudo-testcross strategy to construct a genetic map specific to the maternal parent. The map was built using single-nucleotide polymorphism markers identified by comparing the expressed sequences of individuals in the mapping population against a de novo maternal reference transcriptome assembly. The apios map consists of 11 linkage groups and 1121 recombinationally distinct loci, covering ~ 938.6 cM. By sequencing the transcriptomes of all potential pollen parents, we were able to identify the probable pollen donors and to discover new aspects of the pollination biology in apios. No selfing was observed, but multiple pollen parents were seen within individual pods. Comparisons with genome sequences in other species in the Phaseoleae showed extended synteny for most apios linkage groups. This synteny supports the robustness of the map, and also sheds light on the history of the Phaseoleae, as apios is relatively early diverging in this tribe. We detected a translocation event that separates apios and two Vigna species from Phaseolus vulgaris and Glycine max. This apios mapping work provides a general protocol for sequencing-based construction of high-density linkage maps in outcrossing species with heterogeneous pollen parents.

Metal–organic frameworks assembled from lanthanide and 2,5-pyridinedicaboxylate with cubane-like [Ln{sub 4}(OH){sub 4}] building units

Lanthanide–organic frameworks based on 2,5-pyridinedicaboxylate (25p) ligand, formulated as [Yb{sub 4}(OH){sub 4}(25p){sub 4}(H{sub 2}O){sub 3}]·H{sub 2}O (25pYb), [Y{sub 4}(OH){sub 4}(25p){sub 4}(H{sub 2}O){sub 3}]·H{sub 2}O (25pY-1) and [Y{sub 6}(OH){sub 8}(25p){sub 5}(H{sub 2}O){sub 2}] (25pY-2), have been obtained as single phases under hydrothermal conditions. 25pYb and 25pY-1 are isostructural, and crystallize in the triclinic space group, P-1, with a=8.6075(5) Å, b=14.8478(7) Å, c=15.9164(9) Å, α=86.277(4)°, β=80.196(5)°, γ=81.785(4)°, and a=8.7166(6) Å, b=14.966(1) Å, c=15.966(1) Å, α=86.260(6)°, β=80.036(6)°, γ=81.599(6)°, respectively. 25pY-2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group, P2{sub 1}/c, with a=24.9117(17) Å, b=13.7340(8) Å, c=14.3385(10) Å, β=100.551(7)°. 25pYb and 25pY-2 have been structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The 25pYb structure is based on tetranuclear cubane-like [Yb{sub 4}(OH){sub 4}]{sup 8+} clusters, which are interconnected to eight neighbouring clusters through teen surrounding 25p ligands leading to neutral 3D framework, while the structure of 25pY-2 is based on two independent cuban-like [Y{sub 4}(OH){sub 4}]{sup 8+} clusters, which are joined together through Y1 cation leading to the formation of hexanuclear [Y{sub 6}(OH){sub 8}]{sup 10+} clusters, which in turn are joined via Y2 cation resulting in infinite inorganic chain extending along c-axis, and each chain is interconnected to six adjacent chains through 25p ligands leading finally to 3D framework. The luminescence properties of Eu{sup 3+} and Tb{sup 3+} doped 25pY-1 and 25pY-2 compounds have also been investigated. All materials has been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, thermal analyses (TG–SDTA–MS), FTIR spectroscopy, C–H–N elemental analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDX), and powder X-ray thermodiffraction. - Graphical abstract: Nowadays, lanthanide–organic frameworks (LOFs) attract tremendous attention due to the unique characteristic of lanthanide cations, such as variable coordination numbers and geometries which often lead to novel complex structures, and also to their magnetic and photoluminescence properties. Herein, three LOFs formulated as [Ln{sub 4}(OH){sub 4}(25p){sub 4}(H{sub 2}O){sub 3}]·H{sub 2}O (Ln=Y, Yb) and [Y{sub 6}(OH){sub 8}(25p){sub 5}(H{sub 2}O){sub 2}] have been obtained by hydrothermal method and characterized, and the photoluminescence properties of the Eu and Tb doped compounds are discussed. - Highlights: • Three novel LnOFs has been synthesized and characterized. • Crystal structures are based on tetranuclear cuban-like [Ln{sub 4}(OH){sub 4}]{sup 8+} clusters. • 25pYb and 25pY-1 are based on isolated [Ln{sub 4}(OH){sub 4}]{sup 8+} clusters. • 25pY-2 is based on infinite inorganic chains built up from [Y{sub 4}(OH){sub 4}]{sup 8+} clusters. • Photoluminescence studies show strong red and green light emissions.

Kinematic fixtures to enable multi-material printing and rapid non-destructive inspection during two-photon lithography

Here, two-photon lithography (TPL) is a polymerization based technique that enables additive manufacturing of millimeter scale parts with submicron features. TPL equipment is often based on retrofitted optical microscopes that lack precise registration capabilities. Consequently, slow and error-prone visual alignment to fiducials is necessary if registration to pre-existing features is required. Herein, we have designed, built, and tested precise kinematic fixtures that are repeatable to within ±315 nm (3σ value) and passively register the build surface to TPL equipment with an accuracy of ±1.7 μm. This enables one to sequentially print with multiple materials by building the structures directly on top of the kinematic fixtures. In addition, the same fixtures passively register to an X-ray computed tomography (CT) system to enable non-destructive 3D inspection that is integrated with the fabrication process. These fixtures (i) provide a practical means to handle micro-scale parts during non-destructive imaging, (ii) reduce the set-up time for X-ray CT from more than an hour to less than a few minutes, and (iii) eliminate operator uncertainty from the multi-material printing and imaging process. As such, these fixtures enable new printing and imaging functionalities that are critical for high-quality additive manufacturing of multi-material polymer parts with microscale and submicron features.

Surface Nanostructure Control and Thermodynamic Stability Analysis of Femtosecond Laser-Ablated CuCoMn 1.75 NiFe 0.25 Nanoparticles

Surface nanostructure control is the key to functionalizing nanomaterials. This paper presents a characterization with thermodynamic stability analysis of CuCoMn 1.75 NiFe 0.25 high-entropy alloy (HEA) nanoparticles synthesized by femtosecond laser ablation in ethanol and liquid nitrogen (LN2). Using multimodal electron microscopy and spectroscopy, we examine phase, particle size, defect structure, chemical distribution, and surface composition and relate them to HEA stability. Elemental distributions are uniform in both media, but LN2 produces smaller particles with a narrower size distribution and mainly single- or few-domain interiors, whereas ethanol yields larger particles built from 2–4 nm crystallites with domain aggregation. Edge defects appear in both but energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) is broadly uniform with local fluctuations in ethanol. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), supported by an attenuation model, indicates an ∼1 nm oxide overlayer that suppresses Mn 2p intensity; correcting for it returns Mn toward the bulk value. UV–NIR and photoluminescent spectra independently support a thin oxide shell. Composition-based thermodynamic descriptors place LN2 closer to bulk mixing parameters, while ethanol raises ΔH_mix and lowers Ω. Cooling simulations are consistent (LN2 ∼ 0.1 μs quench, ethanol ∼1 μs). In conclusion, these results connect solvent-controlled kinetics and thermodynamics to crystalline state and surface chemistry, informing surface control of HEA nanoparticles.

Potential Foldamers Based on an ortho- Terphenyl Amino Acid

We describe the synthesis and characterization of a new class of oligomers built from a terphenyl-based amino acid. Here, these oligomeric amides are of interest because the adoption of specific conformations could potentially be driven by the coordinated formation of inter-residue hydrogen bonds and aromatic interactions. Although high-resolution structural data have proven inaccessible, circular dichroism and nuclear magnetic resonance studies suggest that the new oligomers fold concomitantly with discrete self-association in chloroform. Molecular simulations find no sign of folding as a monomer, and in fact suggest that hydrogen bond patterning is anti-cooperative, inhibiting longer helices.

Direct numerical simulation of mechanical response in synthetic additively manufactured microstructures

Additive manufacturing (AM) processes for metals can yield as-built microstructures that vary significantly from their cast or wrought counterparts. These microstructural variations can in turn, have profound effects on the properties of a component. Here, a modeling methodology is presented to investigate microstructurally-influenced mechanical response in additively manufactured structures via direct numeral simulation. Three-dimensional, synthetic voxelized microstructures are generated by kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) additive manufacturing process simulations performed at four scan speeds to create a thin-wall cylindrical geometry notionally constructed using a concentric-pathed directed energy deposition AM process. The kMC simulations utilize a steady-state molten pool geometry that is held constant throughout the study. Resultant microstructures are mapped onto a highly-refined conformal finite-element mesh of a part geometry. A grain-scale anisotropic crystal elasticity model is then used to represent the constitutive response of each grain. Here, the response of the structure subjected to relatively simple load conditions is studied in order to provide understanding of both the influence of AM processing on microstructure as well as the microstructure's influence on the macroscale mechanical response.

Test Results for a Superconducting 28-GHz Ion Source Magnet for FRIB

© 2002-2011 IEEE. The superconducting ECR source magnet for the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams at Michigan State University was designed and built by the Superconducting Magnet Group at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). The 28-GHz NbTi ion source magnet features a sextupole-in-solenoids configuration, which is comparable to the VENUS ECR magnet operated at LBNL. A shell-based support structure using bladders and keys has been incorporated into the design to allow for adjustments of the preload and reversibility of the magnet assembly process. The magnet has been assembled and successfully tested to operational currents at LBNL. This paper describes the basic design of the magnet and the passive quench protection system. The test results are also presented, including the quench behavior of the magnet, the training performance, and the magnetic measurement results.

Automated eddy current analysis of materials

This research effort focused on the use of eddy current techniques for characterizing flaws in graphite-based filament-wound cylindrical structures. A major emphasis was on incorporating artificial intelligence techniques into the signal analysis portion of the inspection process. Developing an eddy current scanning system using a commercial robot for inspecting graphite structures (and others) has been a goal in the overall concept and is essential for the final implementation for expert system interpretation. Manual scans, as performed in the preliminary work here, do not provide sufficiently reproducible eddy current signatures to be easily built into a real time expert system. The expert systems approach to eddy current signal analysis requires that a suitable knowledge base exist in which correct decisions as to the nature of the flaw can be performed. In eddy current or any other expert systems used to analyze signals in real time in a production environment, it is important to simplify computational procedures as much as possible. For that reason, we have chosen to use the measured resistance and reactance values for the preliminary aspects of this work. A simple computation, such as phase angle of the signal, is certainly within the real time processing capability of the computer system. In the work described here, there is a balance between physical measurements and finite element calculations of those measurements. The goal is to evolve into the most cost effective procedures for maintaining the correctness of the knowledge base.

Automated eddy current analysis of materials

The use of eddy current techniques for characterizing flaws in graphite-based filament-wound cylindrical structures is described. A major emphasis was also placed upon incorporating artificial intelligence techniques into the signal analysis portion of the inspection process. Developing an eddy current scanning system using a commercial robot for inspecting graphite structures (and others) was a goal in the overall concept and is essential for the final implementation for the expert systems interpretation. Manual scans, as performed in the preliminary work here, do not provide sufficiently reproducible eddy current signatures to be easily built into a real time expert system. The expert systems approach to eddy current signal analysis requires that a suitable knowledge base exist in which correct decisions as to the nature of a flaw can be performed. A robotic workcell using eddy current transducers for the inspection of carbon filament materials with improved sensitivity was developed. Improved coupling efficiencies achieved with the E-probes and horseshoe probes are exceptional for graphite fibers. The eddy current supervisory system and expert system was partially developed on a MacIvory system. Continued utilization of finite element models for predetermining eddy current signals was shown to be useful in this work, both for understanding how electromagnetic fields interact with graphite fibers, and also for use in determining how to develop the knowledge base. Sufficient data was taken to indicate that the E-probe and the horseshoe probe can be useful eddy current transducers for inspecting graphite fiber components. The lacking component at this time is a large enough probe to have sensitivity in both the far and near field of a thick graphite epoxy component.

Monitoring the Microgravity Environment Quality On-board the International Space Station Using Soft Computing Techniques: Preliminary System Performance Results - Part 2

This paper presents the preliminary performance results of the artificial intelligence monitoring system in full operational mode using near real time acceleration data downlinked from the International Space Station. Preliminary microgravity environment characterization analysis result for the International Space Station (Increment-2), using the monitoring system is presented. Also, comparison between the system predicted performance based on ground test data for the US laboratory "Destiny" module and actual on-orbit performance, using measured acceleration data from the U.S. laboratory module of the International Space Station is presented. Finally, preliminary on-orbit disturbance magnitude levels are presented for the Experiment of Physics of Colloids in Space, which are compared with on ground test data. The ground test data for the Experiment of Physics of Colloids in Space were acquired from the Microgravity Emission Laboratory, located at the NASA Glenn Research Center, Cleveland, Ohio. The artificial intelligence was developed by the NASA Glenn Principal Investigator Microgravity Services Project to help the principal investigator teams identify the primary vibratory disturbance sources that are active, at any moment of time, on-board the International Space Station, which might impact the microgravity environment their experiments are exposed to. From the Principal Investigator Microgravity Services' web site, the principal investigator teams can monitor via a dynamic graphical display, implemented in Java, in near real time, which event(s) is/are on, such as crew activities, pumps, fans, centrifuges, compressor, crew exercise, structural modes, etc., and decide whether or not to run their experiments, whenever that is an option, based on the acceleration magnitude and frequency sensitivity associated with that experiment. This monitoring system detects primarily the vibratory disturbance sources. The system has built-in capability to detect both known and unknown vibratory disturbance sources. Several soft computing techniques such as Kohonen's Self-Organizing Feature Map, Learning Vector Quantization, Back-Propagation Neural Networks, and Fuzzy Logic were used to design the system.

Electrical Capacitance Volume Tomography with High-Contrast Dielectrics

The Electrical Capacitance Volume Tomography (ECVT) system has been designed to complement the tools created to sense the presence of water in nonconductive spacecraft materials, by helping to not only find the approximate location of moisture but also its quantity and depth. The ECVT system has been created for use with a new image reconstruction algorithm capable of imaging high-contrast dielectric distributions. Rather than relying solely on mutual capacitance readings as is done in traditional electrical capacitance tomography applications, this method reconstructs high-resolution images using only the self-capacitance measurements. The image reconstruction method assumes that the material under inspection consists of a binary dielectric distribution, with either a high relative dielectric value representing the water or a low dielectric value for the background material. By constraining the unknown dielectric material to one of two values, the inverse math problem that must be solved to generate the image is no longer ill-determined. The image resolution becomes limited only by the accuracy and resolution of the measurement circuitry. Images were reconstructed using this method with both synthetic and real data acquired using an aluminum structure inserted at different positions within the sensing region. The cuboid geometry of the system has two parallel planes of 16 conductors arranged in a 4 4 pattern. The electrode geometry consists of parallel planes of copper conductors, connected through custom-built switch electronics, to a commercially available capacitance to digital converter. The figure shows two 4 4 arrays of electrodes milled from square sections of copper-clad circuit-board material and mounted on two pieces of glass-filled plastic backing, which were cut to approximately square shapes, 10 cm on a side. Each electrode is placed on 2.0-cm centers. The parallel arrays were mounted with the electrode arrays approximately 3 cm apart. The open ends were surrounded by a metal guard to reduce the sensitivity of the electrodes to outside interference and to help maintain the spacing between the arrays. Other uses for this innovation potentially include quantifying the amount of commodity remaining in the fuel and oxidizer tanks while on-orbit without having to fire spacecraft engines. Another orbit application is moisture sensing in plant-growth experiments because microgravity causes moisture in soil to distribute itself in unusual ways. At the moment, the hardware and image reconstruction technique may only be of interest to people involved in nondestructive evaluation. The reconstructed image takes almost a full week to reproduce with existing computer power. However, because computer power and speeds follows Moore s Law, execution times are likely to become acceptable within the next five to eight years. The code was written in Mathematica for dedicated use with the ECVT system. In its present form, it is not suitable to be used directly as a consumer product. However, the code could be likely improved by rewriting it in a compiled language such as C or Fortran.

CubeSat Constellation Cloud Winds(C3Winds) A New Wind Observing System to Study Mesoscale Cloud Dynamics and Processes

The CubeSat Constellation Cloud Winds (C3Winds) is a NASA Earth Venture Instrument (EV-I) concept with the primary objective to better understand mesoscale dynamics and their structures in severe weather systems. With potential catastrophic damage and loss of life, strong extratropical and tropical cyclones (ETCs and TCs) have profound three-dimensional impacts on the atmospheric dynamic and thermodynamic structures, producing complex cloud precipitation patterns, strong low-level winds, extensive tropopause folds, and intense stratosphere-troposphere exchange. Employing a compact, stereo IR-visible imaging technique from two formation-flying CubeSats, C3Winds seeks to measure and map high-resolution (2 km) cloud motion vectors (CMVs) and cloud geometric height (CGH) accurately by tracking cloud features within 5-15 min. Complementary to lidar wind observations from space, the high-resolution wind fields from C3Winds will allow detailed investigations on strong low-level wind formation in an occluded ETC development, structural variations of TC inner-core rotation, and impacts of tropopause folding events on tropospheric ozone and air quality. Together with scatterometer ocean surface winds, C3Winds will provide a more comprehensive depiction of atmosphere-boundary-layer dynamics and interactive processes. Built upon mature imaging technologies and long history of stereoscopic remote sensing, C3Winds provides an innovative, cost-effective solution to global wind observations with potential of increased diurnal sampling via CubeSat constellation.

The Use of Immersion Rigs for High Temperature Hydrogen Exposure Testing within the Nuclear Thermal Rocket Element Environmental Simulator (NTREES): Thermal Soak Rig (TSR)

The Nuclear Thermal Rocket Element Environmental Simulator (NTREES) facility was purpose constructed to perform non-nuclear evaluations of nuclear thermal propulsion (NTP) system fuel materials and structures within prototypic thermochemical environments. This system has been utilized steadily in its ability to subject test specimens to thermochemical and thermohydraulic environments simulating that of an operating nuclear rocket engine. Fission heat is simulated by induction power and experiments are conducted within a ~1000 psi pressure vessel. Hydrogen is conventionally passed through the heated fuel surrogate test specimen while pressure, temperature, and gas species data are collected at various points along the experiment. In order to test fuel and material coupon samples, a class of test apparatus named “immersion rigs” are being developed and employed to more rapidly test these smaller and more technically challenging test specimen. One example of a promising potential fuel structure, Tristructural-isotropic (TRISO) particles, presents unique challenges for testing of this type. TRISO fuel micro-particles are spheroids typically on the order of 500 – 1000 μm in diameter, and exposing a batch sample to hot hydrogen requires purpose-built special test equipment. Thusly, an immersion rig was developed and successfully demonstrated to expose ~1 g of micro-particles to hydrogen gas at temperatures and pressures relevant to NTP systems for the purpose of fuel evaluation. The rig, comprised primarily of graphite and pure tungsten, houses in its core a batch of micro-particles between pucks of porous silicon carbide (SiC). This approach permits gas flow while simultaneously retaining the particles in place. Herein is a discussion of the design, analysis, fabrication, and testing of the NTREES Thermal Soak Rig (TSR).

A Modularized Urban Scale Building Energy Modeling Framework Designed with An Open Mind

In recent years, physics-based building energy modeling (BEM) has started being used to evaluate the performance of buildings in the context of connected communities and on an urban scale to study their aggregated energy use, interactions, and impacts on the energy supply infrastructure and environment. The development of urban-scale BEM solutions needs extensive effort. Existing attempts tend to focus on different aspects of BEM on an urban scale, such as collecting as-built building data from different information sources, integrating geometry modeling with geographic information systems (GISs), representing operational and occupancy profiles, automating workflow, processing and visualizing the results, and conducting large-scale simulations. Urban-scale BEM development would benefit from multi-disciplinary research areas and from an open platform to adopt advancements on data sources and tools. For these purposes, this research proposes a modularized bottom-up model creation and simulation framework that is built on the state-of-the-art BEM tools and can accommodate different building stock data. This framework uses a standardized schema to describe building design and operational characteristics, and it can be instantiated from different building survey datasets with heterogeneous structures. The paper demonstrates how thousands of surveyed buildings from the 2012 U.S. Energy Information Administration’s Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) were one-to-one converted to EnergyPlus models through the schema and the model generation process, then simulated with distributed computing, and their results are summarized.
