AB The harvesting of ambient energy to power small electronic components has received tremendous attention over the last decade. The research goal in this field is to enable self-powered electronic components for use particularly in wireless sensing and measurement applications. Thermal energy due to temperature gradients, solar energy and ambient vibrations constitute some of the major sources of energy that can be harvested. Researchers have presented several papers focusing on each of these topics separately. This paper aims to develop a hybrid power generator and storage system using these three sources of energy in order to improve both structural multifunctionality and system-level robustness in energy harvesting. A multilayer structure with flexible solar, piezoceramic, thin-film battery and metallic substructure layers is developed (with the overhang dimensions of 93 mm x 25 mm x 1.5 mm in cantilevered configuration). Thermal energy is also used for charging the thin-film battery layers using a 30.5 mm x 33 mm x 4.1 mm generator. Performance results are presented for charging and discharging of the thin-film battery layers using each one of the harvesting methods. It is shown based on the extrapolation of a set of measurements that 1 mA h of a thin-film battery can be charged in 20 min using solar energy (for a solar irradiance level of 223 W m(-2)), in 40 min using thermal energy (for a temperature difference of 31 degrees C) and in 8 h using vibrational energy (for a harmonic base acceleration input of 0.5g at 56.4 Hz).

AB WILLIAMS, P. T. Attenuated Inheritance of Body Weight by Running in Monozygotic Twins. Med. Sci. Sports Exerc., Vol. 44, No. 1, pp. 98-103, 2012. Purpose: Genetic factors account for 40%-70% of the population variation in body mass index (BMI), suggesting that genetic predisposition is a major risk factor for excess weight. The purpose of this study was to test whether exercise attenuates the inherited risk for excess body weight. Methods: Survey questionnaires of exercise (usual running distance) and BMI were obtained from a national sample of 582 female and 344 male self-identified monozygotic (MZ) twins. Regression analyses were used to test whether running disparity diminished the inheritance of BMI when adjusted for age, education, cigarette use, and selected dietary variables. Results: The active twins ran between 0 and 10.7 km center dot d(-1) more than their less active twins if female (mean +/- SD = 1.61 +/- 1.50 km center dot d(-1)) and between 0 and 13.7 km center dot d(-1) more if male (1.88 +/- 1.78 km center dot d(-1)). Average BMIs of the less active twins were 22.38 +/- 3.56 and 24.59 +/- 3.08 kg center dot m(-2) in females and males, respectively. Within-twin correlations were significant (P < 0.0001) for usual distance run (females: r = 0.64; males: r = 0.61) and BMI (females: r = 0.67; males: r = 0.71). Greater running differences (Delta km center dot d(-1)) attenuated the effect of the less active twins' BMIs on their active MZ twins' BMI (females: -14.3% per Delta km center dot d(-1), P < 10(-7); males: -7.4% per Delta km center dot d(-1), P = 0.004), such that by 4 Delta km center dot d(-1), the inherited risk was reduced by 58.8% in females and 29.6% in males. Conclusions: These results are consistent with the attenuation of the inherited risk of excess body weight by running, which is remarkable because BMI regulation is assumed to be multifactorial, its genetic inheritance is polygenic, and no single genetic polymorphism currently explains >1% of the BMI variance.

AB In this work, B4C particulate-reinforced Al composite was fabricated by a pressureless infiltration technique, and its interfacial microstructure was studied in detail by X-ray diffraction as well as by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The B4C phase was unstable in Al melt during the infiltration process, forming AlB10-type AlB24C4 or Al2.1B51C8 as a major reactant phase. The Al matrix was large grains (over 10 mu m), which had no definite orientation relationships (ORs) with the randomly orientated B4C or its reactant particles, except for possible nucleation sites with {011}(B4C) almost parallel to {111}(Al) at a deviation angle of 1.5 deg. Both B4C-Al and reactant-Al interfaces are semicoherent and free of other phases. A comparison was made with the SiC/Al composite fabricated similarly by the pressureless infiltration. It was suggested that the lack of ORs between the Al matrix and reinforced particles, except for possible nucleation sites, is the common feature of the composites prepared by the infiltration method.

AB Fluid flow within the dendritic structure at the solid-liquid interface in nickel-based superalloys has been studied in two directionally solidified alloy systems. Millimeter-scale, three-dimensional (3D) datasets of dendritic structure have been collected by serial sectioning, and the reconstructed mushy zones have been used as domains for fluid-flow modeling. Flow permeability and the influence of dendritic structure on flow patterns have been investigated. Permeability analyses indicate that the cross flow normal to the withdrawal direction limits the development of flow instabilities. Local Rayleigh numbers calculated using the permeabilities extracted from the 3D dataset are higher than predicted by conventional empirical calculations in the regions of the mushy zone that are prone to the onset of convective instabilities. The ability to measure dendrite surface area in 3D volumes permit improved prediction of permeability as well.

AB Electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) is a powerful technique for studying Li-ion battery materials because the valence state of the transition metal in the electrode and charge transfer during lithiation and delithiation processes can be analyzed by measuring the relative intensity of the transition metal L-3 and L-2 lines. In addition, the Li distribution in the electrode material can be mapped with nanometer scale resolution. Results obtained for FeO0.7F1.3/C nanocomposite positive electrodes are presented. The Fe average valence state as a function of lithiation (discharge) has been measured by EELS and results are compared with average Fe valence obtained from electrochemical data. For the FeO0.7F1.3/C electrode discharged to 1.5V, phase decomposition is observed and valence mapping with sub-nanometer resolution was obtained by STEM/EELS analysis. For the lowest discharge voltage of 0.8V, a surface electrolyte inter-phase (SEI) layer is observed and STEM/EELS results are compared with the Li-K edges obtained for various Li standard compounds (LiF, Li2CO3 and Li2O).

AB Interstitial loops are one of the principal evolving defects in irradiated materials. The evolution of interstitial loops, including spatial and size distributions, affects both vacancy and interstitial accumulations in the matrix, hence, void formation and volumetric swelling. In this work, a phase-field model describing the growth kinetics of interstitial loops in irradiated materials during aging is developed. The diffusion of vacancies and interstitials and the elastic interaction between interstitial loops and point defects are accounted in the model. The effects of interstitial concentration, chemical potential, and elastic interaction on the growth kinetics and stability of interstitial loops are investigated in two and three dimensions. It is found that the elastic interaction enhances the growth kinetics of interstitial loops. The elastic interaction also affects the stability of a small interstitial loop adjacent to a larger loop. The model predicts linear growth rates for interstitial loops that is in agreement with the previous theoretical predictions and experimental observations.

AB The capillary driving force and grain boundary mobility is numerically derived within a three-dimensional, cubic-lattice setting Ising model. The results explicitly account for the influences of Monte Carlo temperature and a single angle of inclination. The computed driving force and mobility are used to establish the parametric links with a deterministic continuum model that can be informed by experimental data. The calibrated Monte Carlo paradigm, thus endowed with physical time, length and energy scales, is validated and applied to study grain boundary motion for a set of mixed driving forces within a bi-crystal setting. Polycrystalline simulations are subsequently launched to capture texture evolution with bulk energy effect.

AB Complex behaviors, such as learning and memory, are associated with rapid changes in gene expression of neurons and subsequent formation of new synaptic connections. However, how external signals are processed to drive specific changes in gene expression is largely unknown. We found that the genome organizer protein Satb1 is highly expressed in mature neurons, primarily in the cerebral cortex, dentate hilus, and amygdala. In Satb1-null mice, cortical layer morphology was normal. However, in postnatal Satb1-null cortical pyramidal neurons, we found a substantial decrease in the density of dendritic spines, which play critical roles in synaptic transmission and plasticity. Further, we found that in the cerebral cortex, Satb1 binds to genomic loci of multiple immediate early genes (IEGs) (Fos, Fosb, Egr1, Egr2, Arc, and Bdnf) and other key neuronal genes, many of which have been implicated in synaptic plasticity. Loss of Satb1 resulted in greatly alters timing and expression levels of these IEGs during early postnatal cerebral cortical development and also upon stimulation in cortical organotypic cultures. These data indicate that Satb1 is required for proper temporal dynamics of LEG expression. Based on these findings, we propose that Satb1 plays a critical role in cortical neurons to facilitate neuronal plasticity.

AB Roots are the primary site of interaction between plants and microorganisms. To meet food demands in changing climates, improved yields and stress resistance are increasingly important, stimulating efforts to identify factors that affect plant productivity. The role of bacterial endophytes that reside inside plants remains largely unexplored, because analysis of their specific functions is impeded by difficulties in cultivating most prokaryotes. Here, we present the first metagenomic approach to analyze an endophytic bacterial community resident inside roots of rice, one of the most important staple foods. Metagenome sequences were obtained from endophyte cells extracted from roots of field-grown plants. Putative functions were deduced from protein domains or similarity analyses of protein-encoding gene fragments, and allowed insights into the capacities of endophyte cells. This allowed us to predict traits and metabolic processes important for the endophytic lifestyle, suggesting that the endorhizosphere is an exclusive microhabitat requiring numerous adaptations. Prominent features included flagella, plant-polymer-degrading enzymes, protein secretion systems, iron acquisition and storage, quorum sensing, and detoxification of reactive oxygen species. Surprisingly, endophytes might be involved in the entire nitrogen cycle, as protein domains involved in N2-fixation, denitrification, and nitrification were detected and selected genes expressed. Our data suggest a high potential of the endophyte community for plant-growth promotion, improvement of plant stress resistance, biocontrol against pathogens, and bioremediation, regardless of their culturability.

AB Scanning and transmission electron microscopy was used to correlate the structure of planar defects with the prevalence of Au catalyst atom incorporation in Si nanowires. Site-specific high-resolution imaging along orthogonal zone axes, enabled by advances in focused ion beam cross sectioning, reveals substantial incorporation of catalyst atoms at grain boundaries in < 110 > oriented nanowires. In contrast, (111) stacking faults that generate new polytypes in < 112 > oriented nanowires do not show preferential catalyst incorporation. Tomographic reconstruction of the catalyst-nanowire interface is used to suggest criteria for the stability of planar defects that trap impurity atoms in catalyst-mediated nanowires.

AB Metallic conductance in charged ferroelectric domain walls was predicted more than 40 years ago as the first example of an electronically active homointerface in a nonconductive material. Despite decades of research on oxide interfaces and ferroic systems, the metal-insulator transition induced solely by polarization charges without any additional chemical modification has consistently eluded the experimental realm. Here we show that a localized insulator-metal transition can be repeatedly induced within an insulating ferroelectric lead-zirconate titanate, merely by switching its polarization at the nanoscale. This surprising effect is traced to tilted boundaries of ferroelectric nanodomains, that act as localized homointerfaces within the perovskite lattice, with inherently tunable carrier density. Metallic conductance is unique to nanodomains, while the conductivity of extended domain walls and domain surfaces is thermally activated. Foreseeing future applications, we demonstrate that a continuum of nonvolatile metallic states across decades of conductance can be encoded in the size of ferroelectric nanodomains using electric field.

AB The understanding of crack formation due to applied stress is key to predicting the ultimate mechanical behavior of many solids. Here we present experimental and theoretical studies on cracks or tears in suspended monolayer graphene membranes. Using transmission electron microscopy, we investigate the crystallographic orientations of tears. Edges from mechanically induced ripping exhibit straight lines and are predominantly aligned in the armchair or zigzag directions of the graphene lattice. Electron-beam induced propagation of tears is also observed. Theoretical simulations account for the observed preferred tear directions, attributing the observed effect to an unusual nonmonotonic dependence of graphene edge energy on edge orientation with respect to the lattice. Furthermore, we study the behavior of tears in the vicinity of graphene grain boundaries, where tears surprisingly do not follow but cross grain boundaries. Our study provides significant insights into breakdown mechanisms of graphene in the presence of defective structures such as cracks and grain boundaries.

AB We use a simple device architecture based on a poly(3,4-ethylendioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PE-DOT:PSS)-coated indium tin oxide anode and a LiF/Al cathode to assess the effects of shell thickness on the properties of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) comprising CdSe/CdS core/shell nanocrystal quantum dots (NQDs) as the emitting layer. Specifically, we are interested in determining whether LEDs based on thick-shell nanocrystals, so-called "giant" NQDs, afford enhanced performance compared to their counterparts incorporating thin-shell systems. We observe significant improvements in device performance as a function of increasing shell thickness. While the turn-on voltage remains approximately constant for all shell thicknesses (from 4 to 16 CdS monolayers), external quantum efficiency and maximum luminance are found to be about one order of magnitude higher for thicker shell nanocrystals (>= 13 CdS monolayers) compared to thinner shell structures (<9 CdS monolayers). The thickest-shell nanocrystals (16 monolayers of CdS) afforded an external quantum efficiency and luminance of 0.17% and 2000 Cd/m(2), respectively, with a remarkably low turn-on voltage of similar to 3.0 V.

AB We report the first concurrent determination of conductance (G) and thermopower (S) of single-molecule junctions via direct measurement of electrical and thermoelectric currents using a scanning tunneling microscope-based break-junction technique. We explore several amine-Au and pyridine-Au linked molecules that are predicted to conduct through either the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) or the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), respectively. We find that the Seebeck coefficient is negative for pyridine-Au linked LUMO-conducting junctions and positive for amine-Au linked HOMO-conducting junctions. Within the accessible temperature gradients (<30 K), we do not observe a strong dependence of the junction Seebeck coefficient on temperature. From histograms of thousands of junctions, we use the most probable Seebeck coefficient to determine a power factor, GS(2), for each junction studied, and find that GS(2) increases with G. Finally, we find that conductance and Seebeck coefficient values are in good quantitative agreement with our self-energy corrected density functional theory calculations.

AB Semiconductor photocatalysts capable of broadband solar photon absorption may be nonetheless precluded from use in driving water splitting and other solar-to-fuel related reactions due to unfavorable band edge energy alignment. Using first-principles density functional theory and beyond, we calculate the electronic structure of passivated CdSe surfaces and explore the opportunity to tune band edge energies of this and related semiconductors via electrostatic dipoles associated with chemisorbed ligands. We predict substantial shifts in band edge energies originating from both the induced dipole at the ligand/CdSe interface and the intrinsic dipole of the ligand. Building on important induced dipole contributions, we further show that, by changing the size and orientation of the ligand's intrinsic dipole moment via functionalization, we can control the direction and magnitude of the shifts of CdSe electronic levels. Our calculations suggest a general strategy for enabling new active semiconductor photocatalysts with both optimal opto-electronic, and photo- and electrochemical properties.

AB Conventional ordered phases such as crystals and liquid crystals have constant domain spacings. In this Letter, we report on the formation of coherently ordered morphologies wherein the domain spacing changes continuously along a specified direction. We have coined the term "gradient crystal" to refer to this structure, a signature of which is a small-angle X-ray scattering pattern that resembles a sundial. Gradient crystals composed of a gyroid morphology form spontaneously when ionic current is driven through a block copolymer electrolyte. We propose that this structure forms because it allows for a continuous change in domain spacing without requiring the introduction of defects. Previous studies have shown that applied electric fields ranging from 1000 to 40 000 V/mm can induce long-range structural order, alignment, and morphological transitions in block copolymers. Gradient crystals form under applied electric fields as low as 2.5 V/mm due to the presence of direct ionic currents that are absent in the aforementioned studies.

AB Developing routes to control the organization of one-dimensional nanomaterials, such as nanorods, with high precision is critical to generate functional materials since the collective properties depend on their spatial arrangements, interparticle ordering, and macroscopic alignment. We have systematically investigated the coassemblies of nanorods and block copolymer (BCP)-based supramolecules and showed that the energetic contributions from nanorod ligand polymer interactions, polymer chain deformation, and rod rod interactions are comparable and can be tailored to disperse nanorods with control over inter-rod ordering and the alignment of nanorods within BCP microdomains. By varying the supramolecular morphology and chemical nature of the nanorods, two highly sought-after morphologies, that is, nanoscopic networks of nanorods and nanorod arrays parallel to cylindrical BCP microdomains can be obtained. The supramolecular approach can be applied to achieve morphological control in nanorod-containing nanocomposites toward fabrication of optical and electronic nanodevices.

AB Rechargeable, all-solid-state Li ion batteries (LIBs) with high specific capacity and small footprint are highly desirable to power an emerging class of miniature, autonomous microsystems that operate without a hardwire for power or communications. A variety of three-dimensional (3D) LIB architectures that maximize areal energy density has been proposed to address this need. The success of all of these designs depends on an ultrathin, conformal electrolyte layer to electrically isolate the anode and cathode while allowing Li ions to pass through. However, we find that a substantial reduction in the electrolyte thickness, into the nanometer regime, can lead to rapid self-discharge of the battery even when the electrolyte layer is conformal and pinhole free. We demonstrate this by fabricating individual, solid-state nanowire core-multishell LEBs (NWLIBs) and cycling these inside a transmission electron microscope. For nanobatteries with the thinnest electrolyte, approximate to 110 nm, we observe rapid self-discharge, along with void formation at the electrode/electrolyte interface, indicating electrical and chemical breakdown. With electrolyte thickness increased to 180 nm, the self-discharge rate is reduced substantially, and the NWLIBs maintain a potential above 2 V for over 2 h. Analysis of the nanobatteries' electrical characteristics reveals space-charge limited electronic conduction, which effectively shorts the anode and cathode electrodes directly through the electrolyte. Our study illustrates that, at these nanoscale dimensions, the increased electric field can lead to large electronic current in the electrolyte, effectively shorting the battery. The scaling of this phenomenon provides useful guidelines for the future design of 3D LIBs.

AB The Arctic region is particularly sensitive to climate change. Mixed-phase clouds, comprising both ice and supercooled liquid water, have a large impact on radiative fluxes in the Arctic. These clouds occur frequently during all seasons in the region, where they often persist for many days at a time. This persistence is remarkable given the inherent instability of ice-liquid mixtures. In recent years it has emerged that feedbacks between numerous local processes, including the formation and growth of ice and cloud droplets, radiative cooling, turbulence, entrainment and surface fluxes of heat and moisture, interact to create a resilient mixed-phase cloud system. As well as the persistent mixed-phase cloud state there is another distinct Arctic state, characterized by radiatively clear conditions. The occurrence of either state seems to be related, in part, to large-scale environmental conditions. We suggest that shifts in the large-scale environment could alter the prevalence of mixed-phase clouds, potentially affecting surface radiative fluxes and the Arctic energy budget.

AB The timing of onset of modern-style plate tectonics is debated. The apparent lack of blueschist metamorphism(1)-a key indicator of modern plate subduction(2)-in rocks aged more than about 1 billion years calls into question the existence of plate tectonics during the Archaean and Palaeoproterozoic eras(3,4). Instead, plate tectonics and subduction could have either not occurred at that time(5), or could have proceeded differently(6) owing to warmer conditions in the early Earth mantle(7). Here we use thermodynamic models(8-10) to investigate the formation conditions of metamorphic minerals in the 2.2-2.0 Gyr old West African metamorphic province. We find a record of blueschist metamorphism in these rocks. We show that minerals such as chlorite and phengite formed at high pressures of 10-12 kbar, low temperatures of 400-450 degrees C and under a geothermal gradient of 10-12 degrees C km(-1). These conditions are typical of modern subduction zones. We therefore suggest that modern-style plate tectonics existed during the Palaeoproterozoic era. We conclude that ancient blueschist metamorphism may exist in other parts of the world, but the identification of these rocks has so far been hampered by methodological problems associated with deciphering their pressure and temperature evolution.

AB During each of the late Pleistocene glacial-interglacial transitions, atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations rose by almost 100 ppm. The sources of this carbon are unclear, and efforts to identify them are hampered by uncertainties in the magnitude of carbon reservoirs and fluxes under glacial conditions. Here we use oxygen isotope measurements from air trapped in ice cores and ocean carbon-cycle modelling to estimate terrestrial and oceanic gross primary productivity during the Last Glacial Maximum. We find that the rate of gross terrestrial primary production during the Last Glacial Maximum was about 40 +/- 10 Pg C yr(-1), half that of the pre-industrial Holocene. Despite the low levels of photosynthesis, we estimate that the late glacial terrestrial biosphere contained only 330 Pg less carbon than pre-industrial levels. We infer that the area covered by carbon-rich but unproductive biomes such as tundra and cold steppes was significantly larger during the Last Glacial Maximum, consistent with palaeoecological data. Our data also indicate the presence of an inert carbon pool of 2,300 Pg C, about 700 Pg larger than the inert carbon locked in permafrost today. We suggest that the disappearance of this carbon pool at the end of the Last Glacial Maximum may have contributed to the deglacial rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations.

TI Optical negative refraction by four-wave mixing in thin metallic

SO NATURE MATERIALS

DT Article
ID INDEX; METAMATERIALS; PHASE; SUPERLENS; LIGHT; LENS
AB The law of refraction first derived by Snellius and later introduced as the Huygens-Fermat principle(1), states that the incidence and refracted angles of a light wave at the interface of two different materials are related to the ratio of the refractive indices in each medium. Whereas all natural materials have a positive refractive index and therefore exhibit refraction in the positive direction, artificially engineered negative index metamaterials have been shown capable of bending light waves negatively(2-8). Such a negative refractive index is the key to achieving a perfect lens that is capable of imaging well below the diffraction limit(9-11). However, negative index metamaterials are typically lossy, narrow band, and require complicated fabrication processes. Recently, an alternative approach to obtain negative refraction from a very thin nonlinear film has been proposed(12,13) and experimentally demonstrated in the microwave region(14-16). However, such approaches use phase conjugation, which makes optical implementations difficult. Here, we report a simple but different scheme to demonstrate experimentally nonlinear negative refraction at optical frequencies using four-wave mixing in nanostructured metal films. The refractive index can be designed at will by simply tuning the wavelengths of the interacting waves, which could have potential impact on many important applications, such as superlens imaging.

FABRICATION; PRECURSORS; FILTRATION
AB Osmotic shock in a vesicle or cell is the stress build-up and subsequent rupture of the phospholipid membrane that occurs when a relatively high concentration of salt is unable to cross the membrane and instead an inflow of water alleviates the salt concentration gradient. This is a well-known failure mechanism for cells and vesicles (for example, hypotonic shock) and metal alloys (for example, hydrogen embrittlement)(1-3). We propose the concept of collective osmotic shock, whereby a coordinated explosive fracture resulting from multiplexing the singular effects of osmotic shock at discrete sites within an ordered material results in regular bicontinuous structures. The concept is demonstrated here using self-assembled block copolymer micelles, yet it is applicable to organized heterogeneous materials where a minority component can be selectively degraded and solvated whilst ensconced in a matrix capable of plastic deformation. We discuss the application of these self-supported, perforated multilayer materials in photonics, nanofiltration and optoelectronics.

AB Topological defects, such as monopoles, vortex lines or domain walls, mark locations where disparate choices of a broken-symmetry vacuum elsewhere in the system lead to irreconcilable differences(1,2). They are energetically costly (the energy density in their core reaches that of the prior symmetric vacuum) but topologically stable (the whole manifold would have to be rearranged to get rid of the defect). Here we show how, in a paradigmatic model of a quantum phase transition, a topological defect can be put in a non-local superposition, so that-in a region large compared with the size of its core-the order parameter of the system is 'undecided' by being in a quantum superposition of conflicting choices of the broken symmetry. We dub such a topological Schrodinger-cat state a 'Schrodinger kink', and devise a version of a double-slit experiment suitable for topological defects to describe one possible manifestation of the phenomenon. Coherence detectable in such experiments will be suppressed as a consequence of interaction with the environment. We analyse the environment-induced decoherence and discuss its role in symmetry breaking.

TI Two-stage orbital order and dynamical spin frustration in KCuF3
SO NATURE PHYSICS
LA English
DT Article
ID CRYSTAL-STRUCTURE; PHYSICS
AB The orbital degree of freedom is integral to many exotic phenomena in condensed matter, including colossal magneto-resistance and unconventional superconductivity. The standard model of orbital physics is the Kugel-Khomskii model(1), which first explained the symmetry of orbital and magnetic order in KCuF3 and has since been applied to virtually all orbitally active materials(2). Here we present Raman and X-ray scattering measurements showing that KCuF3 exhibits a previously unidentified structural phase transition at T = 50 K, involving rotations of the CuF6 octahedra. These rotations are quasi-ordered and exhibit glassy hysteresis, but serve to stabilize Neel spin order at T = 39 K. We propose an explanation for these effects by supplementing the Kugel-Khomskii model with a direct, orbital exchange term that is driven by a combination of electron-electron interactions and ligand distortions(3). The effect of this term is to create a near degeneracy that dynamically frustrates the spin subsystem but is lifted at low temperature by subdominant, orbital-lattice interactions. Our results suggest that direct orbital exchange may be crucial for the physics of many orbitally active materials, including manganites, ruthenates and the iron pnictides.

AB Topological defects in ferroic materials are attracting much attention both as a playground of unique physical phenomena and for potential applications in reconfigurable electronic devices. Here, we explore electronic transport at artificially created ferroelectric vortices in BiFeO3 thin films. The creation of one-dimensional conductive channels activated at voltages as low as 1V is demonstrated. We study the electronic as well as the static and dynamic polarization structure of several topological defects using a combination of first-principles and phase-field modelling. The modelling predicts that the core structure can undergo a reversible transformation into a metastable twist structure, extending charged domain walls segments through the film thickness. The vortex core is therefore a dynamic conductor controlled by the coupled response of polarization and electron-mobile-vacancy subsystems with external bias. This controlled creation of conductive one-dimensional channels suggests a pathway for the design and implementation of integrated oxide electronic devices based on domain patterning.

AB The major obstacle for bioenergy production from switchgrass biomass is the low saccharification efficiency caused by cell wall recalcitrance. Saccharification efficiency is negatively correlated with both lignin content and cell wall ester-linked p-coumarate: ferulate (p-CA : FA) ratio. In this study, we cloned and functionally characterized an R2R3-MYB transcription factor from switchgrass and evaluated its potential for developing lignocellulosic feedstocks.
The switchgrass PvMYB4 cDNAs were cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli, yeast, tobacco and switchgrass for functional characterization. Analyses included determination of phylogenetic relations, in situ hybridization, electrophoretic mobility shift assays to determine binding sites in target promoters, and protoplast transactivation assays to demonstrate domains active on target promoters.
PvMYB4 binds to the AC-I, AC-II and AC-III elements of monolignol pathway genes and down-regulates these genes in vivo. Ectopic overexpression of PvMYB4 in transgenic switchgrass resulted in reduced lignin content and ester-linked p-CA : FA ratio, reduced plant stature, increased tillering and an approx. threefold increase in sugar release efficiency from cell wall residues.
We describe an alternative strategy for reducing recalcitrance in switchgrass by manipulating the expression of a key transcription factor instead of a lignin biosynthetic gene. PvMYB4-OX transgenic switchgrass lines can be used as potential germplasm for improvement of lignocellulosic feedstocks and provide a platform for further understanding gene regulatory networks underlying switchgrass cell wall recalcitrance.

AB While stochastic neutron transport theories have been developed in rigorous detail, many applications have historically been investigated using the point-kinetics formulation. In this work we develop a space-dependent model using the diffusion approximation to the Pal-Bell probability generating function equation, resulting in a nonlinear analog of the conventional time-dependent neutron diffusion equation. We investigate a variety of approximate solutions for the time- and space-dependent survival probability in one-dimensional symmetric, one-speed, isotropic, delayed neutron precursor-free systems, and compare them to counterpart point-kinetics results. Following the theoretical developments, we apply the new results in the context of a criticality accident scenario, from which the importance of spatial effects is revealed.

AB We demonstrate an engineered composite film that dynamically switches resonant transmission behavior of terahertz radiation from band-stop to band-pass under appropriate optical pumping. In the absence of pumping, a resonant band-stop behavior is observed arising from metallic split-ring-resonators fabricated on an epitaxial silicon film that was already patterned into a periodic hole-array. Pumping with external infrared light, the silicon film becomes quasi-metallic, damping the planar metamaterial response and enabling a band-pass surface-plasmon resonance through the now conducting hole array. By leveraging two separate types of electromagnetic behaviors simultaneously, this composite chip paves a way for developing unique hybrid planar metamaterials. (C) 2011 Optical Society of America

AB In an attempt to disentangle the effects of permittivity and surface energy of the gate insulator (expressed by its dielectric constant k and water contact angle, respectively) on the performance of organic field-effect transistors (FETs), we fabricated top-and bottom-gate FET architectures with poly(3-alkylthiophenes) (P3ATs) of different side-chain lengths, using a range of gate dielectrics. We find that this class of semiconductor, including the short butyl-(C-4-) substituted derivative, is significantly less susceptible to the often detrimental effects that high-k dielectrics can have on the performance of many organic FETs. For bottom gate devices we identify the surface energy of the gate dielectric to predominantly dictate the device mobility. Crown Copyright (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The heterogeneous reactions of hydroxyl radicals (OH) with squalane and bis(2-ethylhexyl) sebacate (BES) particles are used as model systems to examine how distributions of reaction products evolve during the oxidation of chemically reduced organic aerosol. A kinetic model of multigenerational chemistry, which is compared to previously measured (squalane) and new (BES) experimental data, reveals that it is the statistical mixtures of different generations of oxidation products that control the average particle mass and elemental composition during the reaction. The model suggests that more highly oxidized reaction products, although initially formed with low probability, play a large role in the production of gas phase reaction products. In general, these results highlight the importance of considering atmospheric oxidation as a statistical process, further suggesting that the underlying distribution of molecules could play important roles in aerosol formation as well as in the evolution of key physicochemical properties such as volatility and hygroscopicity.

AB In this paper, a solid molecular basket sorbent, 50 wt% PEI/SBA-15, was studied for CO2 capture from gas streams with low CO2 concentration under ambient conditions. The sorbent was able to effectively and selectively capture CO2 from a gas stream containing 1% CO2 at 75 degrees C, with a breakthrough and saturation capacity of 63.1 and 66.7 mg g(-1), respectively, and a selectivity of 14 for CO2/CO and 185 for CO2/Ar. The sorption performance of the sorbent was influenced greatly by the operating temperature. The CO2-TPD study showed that the sorbent could be regenerated under mild conditions (50-110 degrees C) and was stable in the cyclic operations for at least 20 cycles. Furthermore, the possibility for CO2 capture from air using the PEI/SBA-15 sorbent was studied by FTIR and proved by TPD. A capacity of 22.5 mg g(-1) was attained at 75 degrees C via a TPD method using a simulated air with 400 ppmv CO2 in N-2.

AB Tocopherols (vitamin E) and carotenoids are the two most abundant groups of lipid-soluble antioxidants in the chloroplast. Carotenoids are well known for their roles in protecting against photooxidative stress, whereas the photoprotective functions of tocopherols have only recently been examined experimentally. In addition, little is known about the functional overlap of carotenoids and tocopherols in vivo. To investigate this possible overlap, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii strains were engineered to overproduce tocopherols by chloroplast transformation with non-codon-optimized and codon-optimized versions of the homogentisate phytyltransferase vitamin E2 (VTE2) from Synechocystis and by nuclear transformation with VTE2 from C. reinhardtii, which resulted in 1.6-fold, 5-fold to 10-fold, and more than 10-fold increases in total tocopherol content, respectively. To test if tocopherol overproduction can compensate for carotenoid deficiency in terms of antioxidant function, the nuclear VTE2 gene from C. reinhardtii was overexpressed in the npq1 lor1 double mutant, which lacks zeaxanthin and lutein. Following transfer to high light, the npq1 lor1 strains that overaccumulated tocopherols showed increased resistance for up to 2 d and higher efficiency of photosystem II, and they were also much more resistant to other oxidative stresses. These results suggest an overlapping functions of tocopherols and carotenoids in protection against photooxidative stress.

AB The ability to alter nutrient partitioning within plants cells is poorly understood. In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), a family of endomembrane cation exchangers (CAXs) transports Ca2+ and other cations. However, experiments have not focused on how the distribution and partitioning of calcium (Ca) and other elements within seeds are altered by perturbed CAX activity. Here, we investigate Ca distribution and abundance in Arabidopsis seed from cax1 and cax3 loss-of-function lines and lines expressing deregulated CAX1 using synchrotron x-ray fluorescence microscopy. We conducted 7- to 10-mu m resolution in vivo x-ray microtomography on dry mature seed and 0.2-mu m resolution x-ray microscopy on embryos from lines overexpressing deregulated CAX1 (35S-sCAX1) and cax1cax3 double mutants only. Tomograms showed an increased concentration of Ca in both the seed coat and the embryo in cax1, cax3, and cax1cax3 lines compared with the wild type. High-resolution elemental images of the mutants showed that perturbed CAX activity altered Ca partitioning within cells, reducing Ca partitioning into organelles and/or increasing Ca in the cytosol and abolishing tissue-level Ca gradients. In comparison with traditional volume-averaged metal analysis, which confirmed subtle changes in seed elemental composition, the collection of spatially resolved data at varying resolutions provides insight into the impact of altered CAX activity on seed metal distribution and indicates a cell type-specific function of CAX1 and CAX3 in partitioning Ca into organelles. This work highlights a powerful technology for inferring transport function and quantifying nutrient changes.

AB Developing automated methods for data collection and analysis that can facilitate nuclear nonproliferation assessment is an important research area with significant consequences for the effective global deployment of nuclear energy. Facility modeling that can integrate and interpret observations collected from monitored facilities in order to ascertain their functional details will be a critical element of these methods. Although improvements are continually sought, existing facility modeling tools can characterize all aspects of reactor operations and the majority of nuclear fuel cycle processing steps, and include algorithms for data processing and interpretation. Assessing nonproliferation status is challenging because observations can come from many sources, including local and remote sensors that monitor facility operations, as well as open sources that provide specific business information about the monitored facilities, and can be of many different types. Although many current facility models are capable of analyzing large amounts of information, they have not been integrated in an analyst-friendly manner. This paper addresses some of these facility modeling capabilities and illustrates how they could be integrated and utilized for nonproliferation analysis. The inverse problem of inferring facility conditions based on collected observations is described, along with a proposed architecture and computer framework for utilizing facility modeling tools. After considering a representative sampling of key facility modeling capabilities, the proposed integration framework is illustrated with several examples. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

DE Dynamics; LFR DEMO; Metallic fuel; MOX fuel; Stability; Transient
response
AB A preliminary study concerning the responses of a Generation IV (GEN-IV) Lead Fast Reactor (LFR) demonstrator (DEMO) core to externally-induced reactivity perturbations has been carried out with the aim at assessing and comparing the dynamic performances of MOX and metallic fuel alternative options. Reactivity coefficients and kinetics parameters have been calculated for both Beginning of Cycle (BoC) and End of Cycle (EoC) configurations by means of ERANOS deterministic code ver. 21 associated with the JEFF-3.1 data library. A simplified lumped-parameter model has been developed to treat both neutronics (point-kinetics approximation) and thermal-hydraulics (average temperature heat-exchange model): the latter have been then coupled to analyze MOX and metallic fuel behaviors following operational transient initiators, such as control rod partial extraction (reactivity insertion), coolant inlet temperature perturbation (simulating a loss of heat sink), and mass flow rate reduction (loss of flow), using the MATLAB/SIMULINK (R) tool. The analysis of DEMO core sub-system open-loop stability has ultimately been performed. Results have shown that the model is stable and evidences a satisfactory capability of predicting the response to the reactivity perturbations considered. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Tumor Blood Vessel "Normalization" Improves the Therapeutic Efficacy of Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) in Experimental Oral Cancer. Radiat. Res. 177, 59-68 (2012).
We previously demonstrated the efficacy of BNCT mediated by boronophenylalanine (BPA) to treat tumors in a hamster cheek pouch model of oral cancer with no normal tissue radiotoxicity and moderate, albeit reversible, mucositis in precancerous tissue around treated tumors. It is known that boron targeting of the largest possible proportion of tumor cells contributes to the success of BNCT and that tumor blood vessel normalization improves drug delivery to the tumor. Within this context, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of blood vessel normalization on the therapeutic efficacy and potential radiotoxicity of BNCT in the hamster cheek pouch model of oral cancer. Blood vessel normalization was induced by two doses of thalidomide in tumor-bearing hamsters on 2 consecutive days. All studies in thalidomide-treated animals were performed 48 h after the first dose of thalidomide, previously established as the window of normalization. Biodistribution studies were performed with BPA at a dose of 15.5 mg (10)B/kg in thalidomide-treated (Th+) and untreated (Th-) tumor-bearing hamsters. The effect of blood vessel normalization prior to BPA administration on the efficacy of BNCT was assessed in in viva BNCT studies at the RA-3 Nuclear Reactor in tumor-bearing hamsters. Group I was treated with BPA-BNCT after treatment with thalidomide (Th+ BPA-BNCT). Group II was treated with BPA-BNCT alone (Th- BPA-BNCT). Group III was treated with the beam only after treatment with thalidomide (Th+ BO), and Group IV was treated with the beam only (Th- BO). Groups I and II were given the same dose of BPA (15.5 mg (10)B/kg), and all groups (I-IV) were exposed to the same neutron fluence. Two additional groups were treated with the beam only at a higher dose to exacerbate mucositis in precancerous tissue and to explore the potential direct protective effect of thalidomide on radiation-induced mucositis in a scenario of more severe toxicity, i.e. Group V (Th+ hdBO) and Group VI (Th- hdBO). The animals were followed for 28 days. Biodistribution studies revealed no statistically significant differences in gross boron content between Th+ and Th- animals. Overall tumor control (complete response+partial response) at 28 days post-treatment was significantly higher for Group I (Th+ BPA-BNCT) than for Group II (Th BPA-BNCT): 84 +/- 3% compared to 67 +/- 5%. Pretreatment with thalidomide did not induce statistically significant changes in overall tumor control induced by the beam only, i.e. 15 +/- 5% in Group HI (Th+ BO) and 18 +/- 5% in Group IV (Th BO), or in overall tumor control induced by the high-dose beam only, i.e. 60 +/- 7% in Group V (Th+ hdBO) and 47 +/- 10% in Group VI (Th hdBO). BPA-BNCT alone (Group II) induced mucositis in precancerous tissue that reached Grades 3-4 in 80% of the animals, whereas pretreatment with thalidomide (Group I) prevented mucositis Grades 3 and 4 completely. Beam-only Group III (Th+ BO) exhibited only Grade 1 mucositis in precancerous tissue, whereas 17% of the animals in beam-only Group IV (Th- BO) reached Grade 2 mucositis. High-dose beam-only group V (Th+ hdBO) exhibited only Grade 2 mucositis, whereas high-dose beam-only group VI (Th hdBO) reached Grade 3 mucositis in 83% of the animals. In all cases mucositis in precancerous tissue was reversible. No normal tissue radiotoxicity was observed with any of the protocols. Pretreatment with thalidomide enhanced the therapeutic efficacy of BNCT and reduced precancerous tissue toxicity.

AB The theoretical description of the anomalous properties of the pseudogap phase in the underdoped region of the cuprate phase diagram lags behind the progress in spectroscopic and other experiments. A phenomenological ansatz, based on analogies to the approach to Mott localization at weak coupling in lower dimensional systems, has been proposed by Yang et al (2006 Phys. Rev. B 73 174501). This ansatz has had success in describing a range of experiments. The motivation underlying this ansatz is described and the comparisons with experiment are reviewed. Implications for a more microscopic theory are discussed together with the relation to theories that start directly from microscopic strongly coupled Hamiltonians.

AB This study examines students' understanding of the normative connections between key concepts of cell division, including both mitosis and meiosis, and underlying biological principles that are critical for an in-depth understanding of genetic inheritance. Using a structural equation modeling method, we examine middle school students' understanding of these relationships. A total of 209 seventh-grade students participated in this study and completed a technology-enhanced unit on genetics. Content-based assessments were administered to all students. Findings from a confirmatory factor analysis supplemented with an analysis of students' responses revealed a strong relationship between the concepts of genetic inheritance and cell division and provided evidence of the nature of the difficulties that students have when trying to understand these concepts. Specifically, students were challenged to demonstrate an integrated understanding of the differences between mitosis and meiosis processes. Also some students struggled to explain the importance of these processes as they relate to passage of genetic information. This study offers the science education field further insight into younger students' learning about genetic inheritance and informs the design of effective science learning materials at the middle school level.

AB We examine the role that the atomic structure, both the terminating plane and the stoichiometry, of Sigma 3 twin boundaries in SrTiO3 has on the interaction of point defects using an interatomic potential. Both factors strongly influence defect interactions with the boundary, with interactions strongest for the non-stoichiometric boundary. These results are confirmed with density functional theory. We conclude that boundary atomic structure must be accounted for when understanding the properties of oxides with a large fraction of grain boundaries. (C) 2011 Acta Materialia Inc.

AB This work presents a mechanism of deformation-twin-induced grain boundary failure, and demonstrates the mechanism using molecular dynamics simulations. Deformation twinning is observed as the dominant mechanism during tensile deformation of < 1 1 0 > columnar nanocrystalline body-centered cubic Mo. As a twin approaches a grain boundary, local stress concentration develops due to the incompatible plastic deformations in the two neighboring grains. The magnitude of the stress concentration increases as the twin widens, leading to grain boundary cracking by nucleation and coalescence of microcracks/voids. (C) 2011 Acta Materialia Inc.

AB Fenestration of today is continuously being developed into the fenestration of tomorrow, hence offering a steadily increase of daylight and solar energy utilization and control, and at the same time providing a necessary climate screen with a satisfactory thermal comfort:. Within this work a state-of-the-art market review of the best performing fenestration products has been carried out, along with an overview of possible future research opportunities for the fenestration industry. The focus of the market review was low thermal transmittance (U-value). The lowest centre-of-glass U(g)-values found was 0.28 and 0.30 W/m(2) K, which was from a suspended coating glazing product and an aerogel glazing product, respectively. However, the majority of high performance products found were triple glazed. The lowest frame U-value was 0.61 W/m(2) K. Vacuum glazing, smart windows, solar cell glazing, window frames, self-cleaning glazing, low-emissivity coatings and spacers were also reviewed, thus also representing possibilities for controlling and harvesting the solar radiation energy. Currently, vacuum glazing, new spacer materials and solutions, electrochromic windows and aerogel glazing seem to have the largest potential for improving the thermal performance and daylight and solar properties in fenestration products. Aerogel glazing has the lowest potential U-values, similar to 0.1 W/m(2) K, but requires further work to improve the visible transmittance. Electrochromic vaccum glazing and evacuated aerogel glazing are two vacuum-related solutions, which have a large potential. There may also be opportunities for completely new material innovations, which could revolutionize the fenestration industry. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Cadmium sulfide (CdS) thin films are commonly used as buffer layers in thin film solar cells and can be produced by a number of solution and vacuum methods. We report the continuous solution deposition of CdS on fluorine-doped tin oxide coated glass substrates using Microreactor-Assisted Solution Deposition (MASD (TM)). A flow system consisting of a microscale T-mixer and a novel adjustable residence time microchannel heat exchanger has been utilized in this study. The CdS thin film synthesis involves a multistage mechanism in which an undesirable homogeneous reaction competes with the desired heterogeneous reaction. A microchannel heat exchanger with an adjustable residence time unit has been developed to optimize the reaction residence time and favor heterogeneous growth. Optimization of CdS reaction solution residence time facilitates improved control of CdS synthesis by minimizing the homogeneous reaction and subsequently improving key parameters for process scale-up such as yield and selectivity. The present study indicates that a residence time range of 13-20 s at a solution temperature of 90 degrees C and deposition time of 3 min yields similar to 40 nm thick CdS film. The CdS films were characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy, SEM-EDS, TEM, and X-ray diffraction. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB A reversible strain effect on transport critical current I-c was found in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x (Bi-2212) high-temperature superconducting round wires. I-c showed unambiguous reversibility at 4 K and 16 T up to an irreversible strain limit of about 0.3 % in longitudinal tension, prompting hope that the Bi-2212 conductor has the potential to sustain mechanical strains generated in high-field magnets. However, I-c was not reversible under longitudinal compression and buckling of Bi-2212 grain colonies was identified as the main reason. A two-component model was proposed, which suggests the presence of mechanically weak and strong Bi-2212 components within the wire filaments. Porosity embedded in the weak component renders it structurally unsupported and, therefore, makes it prone to cracking under strain epsilon. I-c(epsilon) is irreversible in tension if the weak component contributes to the transport critical current but becomes reversible once connectivity of the weak component is broken through strain increase or cycling. A modified descriptive strain model was also developed, which illustrates the effect of strain in the Bi-2212 conductor and supersedes the existing descriptive model. Unlike the latter, the new model suggests that higher pre-compressive strains should improve I-c if buckling of Bi-2212 grains does not occur, and should result in a wider I-c(epsilon) plateau in the applied tensile regime without degradation of the initial I-c. The new model postulates that a reversible strain effect should exist even in the applied compressive strain regime if buckling of Bi-2212 grains could be prevented through elimination of porosity and mechanical reinforcement of the wire.

TI Assessment of alternative design schemes to reduce the edge losses in
HTS power transmission cables made of coated conductors
SO SUPERCONDUCTOR SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY
LA English
DT Article
ID SUPERCONDUCTORS
AB In this paper, we investigate the effectiveness of alternative designs to reduce the AC losses of high temperature superconducting (HTS) power transmission cables. The idea behind these designs is to undermine the edge effect, which is one of the main factors contributing to AC losses in HTS power cables made of coated tapes. The edge effect, which arises from the presence of gaps between the tapes, results in large normal components of magnetic field near the edges of the tapes and in turns leads to a current distribution with higher density near the edges. To perform our investigation we use a numerical technique developed in our previous work which allows us to consider the helical configuration of the tapes. Through numerical simulations we assess the effectiveness of two overlapped designs, i.e. a cyclic overlapped design and an anticyclic overlapped design, in reduction of AC losses in single layer HTS power cables made of coated tapes. Simulation results show that AC losses can be reduced by about 70% as compared with a typical single layer cable.

Our results revealed significant differences in geochemical parameters across the sediment biofilm/water interface in the presence and absence of U(VI) under oxic and anoxic conditions. While the pH was relatively constant within the sediment biofilm, the redox potential and the DO and H-2 concentrations were heterogeneous at the microscale (<500-1000 mu m). We found microenvironments with high DO levels (DO hotspots) when the sediment biofilm was exposed to U(VI). On the other hand, we found hotspots (high concentrations) of H-2 under anoxic conditions both in the presence and in the absence of U(VI). The presence of anoxic microenvironments inside the sediment biofilms suggests that U(VI) reduction proceeds under bulk oxic conditions. To test this, we operated our biofilm reactor under air-saturated conditions in the presence of U(VI) and characterized U speciation in the sediment biofilm. U L-III-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XANES and EXAFS) showed that 80-85% of the U was in the U(IV) valence state. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Elastic residual strains were measured in a laser welded commercially pure titanium ring using a non-destructive neutron diffraction technique in order to determine the resolution of this method for the characterization of small laser welds. In addition, these measurements were used to validate calculations made using residual strain data obtained from simulation of the residual stress near the weld. The measured strains were in good agreement with the simulated results.

AB Cancer is arguably the ultimate complex biological system. Solid tumors are microstructured soft matter that evolves as a consequence of spatio-temporal events at the intracellular (e.g., signaling pathways, macromolecular trafficking), intercellular (e.g., cellcell adhesion/communication), and tissue (e.g., cellextracellular matrix interactions, mechanical forces) scales. To gain insight, tumor and developmental biologists have gathered a wealth of molecular, cellular, and genetic data, including immunohistochemical measurements of cell type-specific division and death rates, lineage tracing, and gain-of-function/loss-of-function mutational analyses. These data are empirically extrapolated to a diagnosis/prognosis of tissue-scale behavior, e.g., for clinical decision. Integrative physical oncology (IPO) is the science that develops physically consistent mathematical approaches to address the significant challenge of bridging the nano (nm)micro (mu m) to macro (mm, cm) scales with respect to tumor development and progression. In the current literature, such approaches are referred to as multiscale modeling. In the present article, we attempt to assess recent modeling approaches on each separate scale and critically evaluate the current hybrid-multiscale models used to investigate tumor growth in the context of brain and breast cancers. Finally, we provide our perspective on the further development and the impact of IPO. WIREs Syst Biol Med 2012, 4:114. doi: 10.1002/wsbm.158

AB Our lab and most others have not been able to close a carbon balance for fermentation by the thermophilic, cellulolytic anaerobe, Clostridium thermocellum. We undertook a detailed accounting of product formation in C. thermocellum ATCC 27405. Elemental analysis revealed that for both cellulose (Avicel) and cellobiose, >= 92% of the substrate carbon utilized could be accounted for in the pellet, supernatant and off-gas when including sampling. However, 11.1% of the original substrate carbon was found in the liquid phase and not in the form of commonly-measured fermentation products - ethanol, acetate. lactate, and formate. Further detailed analysis revealed all the products to be <720 da and have not usually been associated with C. thermocellum fermentation, including malate, pyruvate, uracil, soluble glucans, and extracellular free amino acids. By accounting for these products, 92.9% and 93.2% of the final product carbon was identified during growth on cellobiose and Avicel, respectively. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In the present work, stable fluidization of sawdust was achieved in a bench fluidized bed with an inclined orifice distributor without inert bed materials. A solids circulation pattern was established in the bed without the presence of slugging and channeling. The effects of treatment severity and weight loss on the solid product properties were identified. The decomposition of hemicelluloses was found to be responsible for the significant changes of chemical, physical and mechanical properties of the torrefied sawdust, including energy content, particle size distribution and moisture absorption capacity. The hydrophobicity of the torrefied sawdust was improved over the raw sawdust with a reduction of around 40 wt.% in saturated water uptake rate, and enhanced with increasing the treatment severity due to the decomposition of hemicelluloses which are rich in hydroxyl groups. The results in this study provided the basis for torrefaction in fluidized bed reactors. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved,

AB A new fully numerical method is presented which employs multiple Poincar, sections to find quasiperiodic orbits of the Restricted Three-Body Problem (RTBP). The main advantages of this method are the small overhead cost of programming and very fast execution times, robust behavior near chaotic regions that leads to full convergence for given family of quasiperiodic orbits and the minimal memory required to store these orbits. This method reduces the calculations required for searching two-dimensional invariant tori to a search for closed orbits, which are the intersection of the invariant tori with the Poincar, sections. Truncated Fourier series are employed to represent these closed orbits. The flow of the differential equation on the invariant tori is reduced to maps between the consecutive Poincar, maps. A Newton iteration scheme utilizes the invariance of the circles of the maps on these Poincar, sections in order to find the Fourier coefficients that define the circles to any given accuracy. A continuation procedure that uses the incremental behavior of the Fourier coefficients between close quasiperiodic orbits is utilized to extend the results from a single orbit to a family of orbits. Quasi-halo and Lissajous families of the Sun-Earth RTBP around the L2 libration point are obtained via this method. Results are compared with the existing literature. A numerical method to transform these orbits from the RTBP model to the real ephemeris model of the Solar System is introduced and applied.

AB Synchrotron X-ray diffraction data was collected from a sample of monocarboaluminate 3CaO center dot Al2O3 center dot CaCO3 center dot 11H(2)O from ambient pressure to 4.3 GPa. The refined crystal structure at ambient pressure is triclinic with parameters a=5.77(2) angstrom, b=8.47(5) angstrom, c=9.93(4) angstrom, alpha=64.6(2)degrees, beta=82.8(3)degrees, gamma=81.4(4)degrees, and space group of P1 or P (1) over bar. It showed some degree of perfectly reversible pressure-induced dehydration with a non-hygroscopic pressure-transmitting medium. However the dehydration effect does not critically affect a bulk modulus due to its strong framework. The isothermal bulk modulus of monocarboaluminate was found to be 53(5) GPa and 54(4)GPa with 3rd order and 2nd order Birch-Murnaghan Equation of state, respectively. That value is higher than for any other reported AFm or AFt phase. The pressure-volume behavior of the monocarboaluminate was compared with that of previous studied hemicarboaluminate.

SO GEOPHYSICAL PROSPECTING
LA English
DT Article
DE Despiking; Time series
ID NOISE SEPARATION
AB The magnetotelluric method employs co-located surface measurements of electric and magnetic fields to infer the local electrical structure of the earth. The frequency dependent apparent resistivity curves can be inaccurate at long periods if input data are contaminated even when robust remote reference techniques are employed. Data despiking prior to processing can result in significantly more reliable estimates of long period apparent resistivities. This paper outlines a two-step method of automatic identification and replacement for spike-like contamination of magnetotelluric data; based on the simultaneity of natural electric and magnetic field variations at distant sites. This simultaneity is exploited both to identify windows in time when the array data are compromised as well as to generate synthetic data that replace observed transient noise spikes. In the first step windows in data time series that contain spikes are identified according to an intersite comparison of channel activity such as the variance of differenced data within each window. In the second step, plausible data for replacement of flagged windows are calculated by Wiener filtering coincident data in clean channels. The Wiener filters which express the time-domain relationship between various array channels are computed using an uncontaminated segment of array training data. Examples are shown where the algorithm is applied to artificially contaminated data and to real field data. In both cases all spikes are successfully identified. In the case of implanted artificial noise, the synthetic replacement time series are very similar to the original recording. In all cases, apparent resistivity and phase curves obtained by processing the despiked data are much improved over curves obtained from raw data.

DE Criticality; Burnup credit; Spent fuel pool
AB In order to conservatively apply burnup credit in spent fuel pool criticality safety analyses. Westinghouse has developed a software tool, ISOCRIT, for generating depletion isotopics. This tool is used to create isotopics data based on specific reactor input parameters, such as design basis assembly type; bounding power/burnup profiles; reactor specific moderator temperature profiles; pellet percent theoretical density; burnable absorbers, axial blanket regions, and bounding ppm boron concentration. ISOCRIT generates burnup dependent isotopics using PARAGON; Westinghouse's state-of-the-art and licensed lattice physics code. Generation of isotopics and passing the data to the subsequent 3D KENO calculations are performed in an automated fashion, thus reducing the chance for human error. Furthermore, ISOCRIT provides the means for responding to any customer request regarding re-analysis due to changed parameters (e.g., power uprate, exit temperature changes, etc.) with a quick turnaround.

AB A modified enhanced thermal neutron beam (METNB) assembly at Fermilab was used to irradiate borylphenylalanine (BPA) treated human prostate cancer cells, DU 145. Acceptable cellular uptake levels of BPA and no BPA cytotoxicity were observed. In the absence of BPA, the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of the METNB was determined to be 2.3-4.8 times greater than gamma rays. An additional 1.2 or 1.4 fold relative enhancement from boron neutron capture (RE(BNC)) was observed for METNB irradiated DU 145 cells treated with 4.9 or 12 mM BPA, respectively. The additional cell killing of the BPA loaded DU 145 cells by the METNB at Fermilab is evidence for a BNC enhanced cell killing. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The effect of the charged lidocaine on the structure and dynamics of DMPC/DMPG (mass fraction of 95/5) unilamellar vesicles has been investigated. Changes in membrane organization caused by the presence of lidocaine were detected through small angle neutron scattering experiments. Our results suggest that the presence of lidocaine in the vicinity of the headgroups of lipid membranes leads to an increase of the area per lipid molecule and to a decrease of membrane thickness. Such changes in membrane structure may induce disordering of the tail group. This scenario explains the reduction of the main transition temperature of lipid membranes, as the fraction of lidocaine per lipid molecules increases, which was evident from differential scanning calorimetry results. Furthermore neutron spin echo spectroscopy was used for the dynamics measurements and the results reveal that presence of charged lidocaine increases the bending elasticity of the lipid membranes in the fluid phase and slows the temperature-dependent change of bending elasticity across the main transition temperature.

AB The development of cost-effective biofuels will require improvements in the efficiency of biomass deconstruction, a process typically carried out by lignocellulose-degrading enzymes. Environmental microbes represent an abundant and diverse source of lignocelluloses-degrading enzymes for use in biotechnology. However, identification of microorganisms that possess these enzymes has been slowed by a lack of rapid screening methodologies, particularly those that utilize native lignocellulosic substrates. In this report, we describe a new, solid-phase screening system for the identification of microbes capable of lignocellulose degradation. The critical component of this screening system is the use of acrylamide, instead of agar, as the solidifying agent. Our results show that this screening method allows for the identification of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria that possess cellulose and hemicellulose degrading activities from environmental isolates.

AB The tree species composition of a forested landscape may respond to climate change through two primary successional mechanisms: (1) colonization of suitable habitats and (2) competitive dynamics of established species. In this study, we assessed the relative importance of competition and colonization in forest landscape response (as measured by the forest type composition change) to global climatic change. Specifically, we simulated shifts in forest composition within the Boundary Waters Canoe Area of northern Minnesota during the period 2000-2400 AD. We coupled a forest ecosystem process model, PnET-II, and a spatially dynamic forest landscape model, LANDIS-II, to simulate landscape change. The relative ability of 13 tree species to colonize suitable habitat was represented by the probability of establishment or recruitment. The relative competitive ability was represented by the aboveground net primary production. Both competitive and colonization abilities changed over time in response to climatic change. Our results showed that, given only moderate-frequent windthrow (rotation period = 500 years) and fire disturbances (rotation period = 300 years), competition is relatively more important for the short-term (< 100 years) compositional response to climatic change. For longer-term forest landscape response (> 100 years), colonization became relatively more important. However, if more frequent fire disturbances were simulated, then colonization is the dominant process from the beginning of the simulations. Our results suggest that the disturbance regime will affect the relative strengths of successional drivers, the understanding of which is critical for future prediction of forest landscape response to global climatic change.

AB Surface temperature, precipitation, specific humidity and wind anomalies associated with the warm and cold phases of ENSO simulated by WRF and HadRM are examined for the present and future decades. WRF is driven by ECHAM5 and CCSM3, respectively, and HadRM is driven by HadCM3. For the current decades, all simulations show some capability in resolving the observed warm-dry and cool-wet teleconnection patterns over the PNW and the Southwest U.S. for warm and cold ENSO. Differences in the regional simulations originate primarily from the respective driving fields. For the future decades, the warm-dry and cool-wet teleconnection patterns in association with ENSO are still represented in ECHAM5-WRF and HadRM. However, there are indications of changes in the ENSO teleconnection patterns for CCSM3-WRF in the future, with wet anomalies dominating in the PNW and the Southwest U.S. for both warm and cold ENSO, in contrast to the canonical patterns of precipitation anomalies. Interaction of anomalous wind flow with local terrain plays a critical role in the generation of anomalous precipitation over the western U.S. Anomalous dry conditions are always associated with anomalous airflow that runs parallel to local mountains and wet conditions with airflow that runs perpendicular to local mountains. Future changes in temperature and precipitation associated with the ENSO events in the regional simulations indicate varying responses depending on the variables examined as well as depending on the phase of ENSO.

AB New structural alloys based on borosilicides of molybdenum have been considered as potential replacements for current Ni-base superalloys, as they show promise as highly oxidation- and creep-resistant materials while still maintaining a moderate level of damage tolerance. Two alloys, each composed of Mo-3Si-1B (wt.%) with nominally similar fine-grained microstructures, have been developed utilizing markedly differing processing routes. Here, we study the influence of processing route on the fracture toughness of alloys containing similar to 55 vol.% ductile alpha-Mo and similar to 45 vol.% brittle intermetallics (Mo3Si (A15) and Mo5SiB2 (T2)). The room temperature toughness of these two alloys is significantly lower than that of previously evaluated coarser-grained Mo-Si-B alloys with similar composition; however at 1300 degrees C, the crack-initiation toughness of the fine- and coarse-grained alloys are nearly identical. At lower temperatures, the current finer-grained materials behave in a brittle manner as the smaller grains do not provide much impediment to crack extension; cracks can advance with minimal deflection thereby limiting any extrinsic toughening. Plastic constraint of ductile alpha-Mo grains by the hard intermetallic grains also serves to lower the toughness. Silicon impurity concentrations in the grain boundaries in the fine-grained alloys are much higher, leading to lower grain-boundary strengths and contributing to the much lower room temperature initiation toughnesses of these alloys (no stable crack growth was observed), as compared to the coarser-grained alloys. At 1300 degrees C, the increased ductility of alpha-Mo allows for significant plasticity; the correspondingly much larger contribution from intrinsic toughening results in significantly enhanced toughness, such that the finer grain morphology becomes less important in limiting crack growl:h resistance. Further optimization of these alloys, however, is still required to tailor their microstructures for the mutually exclusive requirements of oxidation resistance, creep resistance and damage tolerance.

AB The effect of local texture on inhomogeneous plastic deformation is studied in zirconium subjected to uniaxial compression. Cross-rolled commercially pure Zr 702 plate that had a strong basal (0001) texture through the plate thickness, and a non-basal texture in cross-section, was obtained. At a compressive strain rate of 1 s(-1), samples loaded either in the through-thickness or in-plane directions exhibited significant differences in yield strength, hardening response and failure mechanisms. These macroscopic differences are related to microstructural features by combining information from electron backscattered diffraction with real time in situ imaging and subsequent full-field strain measurements obtained using digital image correlation. Experimental results indicate that the through-thickness loaded zirconium samples, which show a strong basal-texture in the loading direction, do not deform homogeneously - implying the lack of a representative volume element. The detailed surface deformation fields provided by digital image correlation allow for a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the relationship between grain orientation and patterns of deformation bands that form as the precursors to development of an adiabatic shear band in the through-thickness loaded sample. For the in-plane loaded samples, inhomogeneities still exist at the microscale, but the collective behavior of several grains leads to a homogeneous response at the macroscale. It is observed that local texture for hcp polycrystals, which are significantly slip restricted, can directly affect both local and global response, even at low to moderate plastic strains.

AB Overcharge of lithium-ion batteries can lead to the deposition of lithium ions on the surface of graphite electrodes. The phenomenon of lithium deposition causes reduced electrochemical performance and presents safety concerns for lithium-ion batteries in high-power applications. This study presents a technique using neutron radiography (NR) for in situ visualization of the effects of overcharge in a graphite/NCA (LiNi(0.8)Co(0.15)Al(0.05)O(2)) lithium-ion cell. Patterns of deposition of solid material on the surface of the graphite electrode observed in the radiographs were confirmed by direct observation of the electrode. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was used to verify the elemental contents of the deposited material. NR is shown to be a promising tool for the study of lithium-ion batteries in high-power applications.

AB Traditional methods for investigating stream solute biogeochemistry measure longitudinal rates of uptake by increasing either the concentration or isotopic composition of solutes. These methods cannot be applied to dissolved organic matter (DOM) because we cannot replicate the heterogeneous native DOM pool. We explored an alternative approach, attempting to displace or enhance benthic uptake of native DOM by supplying an exogenous source of labile carbon or by enriching the stream with inorganic nitrogen. This approach allows us to measure uptake rates of enriched solutes, as well as changes in the concentration and composition of native DOM resulting from the experimental manipulations. We examined DOM composition using fluorescence characterization. We were able to elicit changes in the chemical composition of native DOM by differentially altering the dynamics of autotrophic production and heterotrophic uptake within the second- order reach of Walker Branch, a well- studied stream in eastern Tennessee. Supplying heterotrophs with labile carbon resulted in an increase in fluorescence associated with terrestrially derived DOM. Stimulating algae by adding inorganic nitrogen increased autochthonous production and indirectly displaced heterotrophic demand for terrestrial DOM due to increased in- stream production of bioavailable DOM. While we were able to alter the composition of the native DOM pool, we observed little change in DOM concentrations. The ability to differentiate between DOM subcomponents provides insight into processes controlling DOM production and consumption that cannot be gained by treating DOM as a single bulk pool.

AB To study the peculiarities of initiation, evolution and recollection of spall-type damage under axis-symmetric convergence using the impact method, the test bench with an explosive magnetic pulsed power source (EPPS) on the basis of a helical generator with an explosive opening switch and a current interrupter has been created. The EPPS allows shaping the trapezoidal current pulses with the amplitude from 4 MA to 12 MA, full base duration from 10 to 250 mu s and front rise duration similar to 2 mu s in the load (liner). The magnetic field produced by the EMG current ensures the isentropic drive of a cylindrical liner used to create a shock wave of the required characteristics in the targets. In experiments "R-Damage-8,9" representing the completion stage of the experimental series "R-Damage-0-9" realized jointly by the VNIIEF and LANL teams we used the isentropically driven liners to realize a set of processes of shock-wave compression, evolution of damage and recollection of a damaged matter under axis-symmetric convergence in the extruded aluminum. The features of these processes were recorded with the use of PDV technique due to the time dependencies of the hollow targets' inner surface velocity. The presented method allowed apparently for the first time realizing the full and incomplete recollection of the main crack as the results of metallographic analysis have showed. This result made it possible to verify the numerical models of the damaged medium recollection being developed at the present time.

ID THERMOPHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS
AB Warm Dense Matter (WDM), i. e. substance at densities of the order of that of solids and temperatures of the order of 1-10 eV, can be produced using a helical explosive magnetic flux compression generator (EMG) with an opening switch. A diameter 200 mm EMG with an explosive opening switch can deliver a current of similar to 5 MA with a characteristic rise time of 0.3 mu s to drive thick wires (posts) and study WDM in larger volumes than on stationary facilities. An improved WDM generation system was investigated, in which WDM is produced in cylindrical geometry as a result of an electrical explosion of a thin metal foil, surrounded by an insulator. It is shown that in such a system driven by an EMG with an opening switch one can obtain a large volume of matter with density on the order of (0.01-1) of solid density and temperature about 2-3 eV with better accessibility for electric measurements.

AB The AFRL Shiva Star capacitor bank (1300 microfarads, up to 120 kilovolts) operated typically with 4 to 5 megajoules of electrically stored energy, with axial discharge currents of 10 to 15 megamps, and current rise times of approximately 10 microseconds, has been used to drive metal shell (solid liner) implosions in several geometries, including long cylindrical designs, which are suitable for compression of axial magnetic fields to multi-megagauss levels. Such imploding liners are also suitable for compressing magnetized plasmas to magneto-inertial fusion conditions. MagnetoInertial Fusion (MIF) approaches take advantage of embedded magnetic field to improve plasma energy confinement by reducing thermal conduction relative to conventional inertial confinement fusion (ICF). MIF reduces required implosion speed and convergence ratio relative to ICF. AFRL, its contractors and collaborating institutions LANL, UNM, and UNR have developed one version of magnetized plasmas at pre-compression densities, temperatures, and magnetic fields that may be suitable for such compression. These are Field Reversed Configurations (FRCs). This effort reliably formed, translated, and captured FRCs in magnetic mirrors inside10 cm diameter, 30 cm long, mm thick metal shells or liners in preparation for subsequent compression by liner implosion; imploded a liner with an interior magnetic mirror field, obtaining evidence for compression of 1.36 T field to approximately 500 T; performed a full system experiment of FRC formation, translation, capture, and imploding liner compression operation; identified by comparison of 2D-MHD simulation and FRC capture experiments factors limiting the closed-field lifetime of FRCs to about half that required for good liner compression of FRCs to multi-keV, 10<^>19 ion/cm<^>3, high energy density plasma (HEDP) conditions; and designed and prepared hardware to increase that closed field FRC lifetime to the required amount. Those lifetime extension experiments have obtained imaging evidence of FRC rotation (which is a phenomenon that limits such closed field lifetimes), and of initial rotation control measures slowing and stopping such rotation. These and the results of subsequent closed field plasma lifetime and compression experiments and related simulations will be discussed.

AB Electromagnetic implosion of the cylindrical condensed liners is of great interest for the studies of high energy density physics, and in particular for getting pressures of terapascal range and for measuring the Hugoniots of materials under such pressures. The pulsed power systems on the basis of disk explosive magnetic generators (DEMG) provide the highest currents in the liner loads. A device on the basis of a 15-element DEMG SIC 0.4 m with a foil current opening switch and an explosive closing switch connecting the load is being developed to explore a possibility of driving the aluminum liner to a velocity of similar to 20 km/s and using it as an impactor. It is planned to check the operability of this device in the joint VNIIEF-LANL experiment ALT-3. To test the key systems of the ALT-3 assembly, a series of model experiments has been conducted. The model units will be described, the setup of the experiments testing the operability of the explosive current closing switch able to commute the currents of 60 - 70 MA and the system of high-voltage insulation of the line delivering the energy to the liner and able to withstand high voltages will be discussed. The experiment with the system modeling the ALT-3 device to check the scheme of operation of the pulsed power source' elements and the operability of disk elements under the explosive magnetic regime at the initial feeding current of 7.0 - 7.5 MA will be considered.

DE magnetic flux compression generator; explosive pulsed power
AB Magnetic flux compression generators (FCGs) driven by high explosives can produce extremely high magnetic fields that are useful in accelerating metal liners and sample materials to high velocities to study their properties. For material studies requiring extremely high energy and applied pressures, explosive FCGs can far surpass the typical performance of capacitor based systems. Flat plate generators (FPGs) are useful in many flux compression applications. They are well suited for doing material studies in planar geometries, and they enable the use of certain diagnostic techniques, most notably flash X-ray radiography, which would be difficult if not impossible to utilize in coaxial geometries. Typical flat-plate generators have rather slow-rising output currents. This can cause loads to deform significantly before the highest rate of current gain from the generator can be reached. Shearer et al. at LLNL overcame this handicap by developing a version of FPG that used a flat plate armature and contoured stator. A rectangular block of high explosive (HE) is lit by a row of detonators placed across the width of the HE at a select location along the length of the generator. As the HE burns, the armature takes a characteristic shape determined by the line initiation location. At the appropriate time, the armature first contacts the stator near the input end, then continues to expand into a shape resembling the contoured stator. At late time, the armature contacts the stator at a shallow 1 to 2 degree phasing angle, which rapidly sweeps flux into the load, resulting in a fast current rise time. We have constructed a similar type generator for our present experimental work. It is capable of delivering 20 MA of current with a 2 to 4 mu s exponential rise time into suitable loads. This paper describes the design of LLNL's flat-plate FCG, along with results of modeling and simulation performed for its development. Experiments have been carried out using the FPG with seed currents ranging from 0.75 to 1.6 MA using capacitor banks, and up to 2 MA using a helical FCG. Accurate measurements of input and output currents have been made and performance agrees remarkably well with MHD simulations. Challenges faced with calibrating diagnostics and fielding these types of experiments will also be discussed.

DE Flux compression generator; coaxial generator; high current
AB A Ranchero flux compression generator (FCG) was recently tested at the 76 MA level. Ranchero generators were designed to be cost effective high current devices, and a variety of configurations have been tested. The Ranchero armature is a 152 mm diameter aluminum cylinder with a 6 mm thick wall. The high explosive (HE) is detonated simultaneously on axis, and the armature is expanded by a factor of two. At the final 300 mm diameter, the circumference is over 950 mm, which has been anticipated to accommodate currents approaching 100 MA. The test was performed with a 43 cm long module having an initial inductance of 56 nH, and a load inductance of 0.55 nH, consisting of a short load feed slot and probe grooves. A 12 mF capacitor bank at similar to 16.5 kV provided the initial 3.75 MA seed current. The performance of the generator with this load was calculated using a 2D MHD ALE code, and agreement was excellent. Generator design, test data, and details of the MHD calculations are given. The most important aspect of the results is verification of codes at the 76 MA level. The same codes do not show excessive losses up to the 100 MA level, and it is a much smaller extrapolation to that level at this time.

ID INSULATOR FLASHOVER
AB The Mini-G explosive pulsed power system is a two-stage helical-coaxial FCG that is geometrically a half-scale version of LLNL's FFT device. The generator is capable of delivering 60 MA currents and 10 MJ of energy to suitable inductive loads. The Mini-G is presently used in high-energy-density physics experiments that require efficient current delivery through a vacuum power flow region to the load. As with the FFT device, the Mini-G system requires a compact, high-voltage gas-to-vacuum insulator and low-inductance vacuum power flow channel to achieve high performance and maximum energy delivery. In designing the Mini-G system, we followed the successful approach used in developing the FFT device. This included shaping the electrodes and insulators to manage electric field enhancements, applying coatings to cathode surfaces to suppress electron field emission, introducing baffles to the power flow channel to block UV, and applying coatings to electrode surfaces to absorb UV. This paper describes the design of the Mini-G vacuum interface and power flow region, and results of modeling and simulations that were done to evaluate and optimize performance. Appropriate codes were used to examine electric field enhancements, magnetic insulation, flashover inhibition and UV ray tracing in the channel. In this paper, we also present results of laboratory testing on HV vacuum insulator materials and shapes, UV induced insulator flashover, along with measurements of HV thresholds for electron emission. We also report on UV reflectance data for some of the coatings considered. To date, there have been eight experiments performed using the Mini-G system. For the first two tests, the power flow channel had an extremely low vacuum inductance of 0.9 nH. On the second Mini-G test it appeared that a partial shorting occurred in the power flow channel, limiting full energy delivery to the load. The design was modified to reduce electrical stress, improve UV attenuation, and incorporate additional diagnostics. This increased the inductance of the power flow channel to 1.5 nH. On the third Mini-G test the partial shorting reoccurred and the new diagnostics (inner Bdot probe) helped to identify the location at the vacuum insulator surface - about 10% of total current of 41 MA was diverted into the short. Further design modifications were incorporated to decrease electrical stress across the insulator and reduce UV illumination of the insulator surface. This increased the inductance of the power flow channel to 1.9 nH. On subsequent Mini- G experiments full current delivery to the load has been achieved with no occurrence of shorting.

DE magnetohydrodynamic; damage; failure; simulation
AB Well-characterized experimental data is essential for development of models describing complex material processes such as damage and failure. There is currently a dearth of experimental data capturing material behavior for the processes of non-uniaxial loading to failure and void closure after damage. LANL and VNIIEF recently completed a series of ten helical-generator-driven cylindrical damage experiments using high-precision diagnostics to measure the drive conditions and the material response. These experiments produced a well-characterized damage data set ranging from void initiation to complete failure and recollection for a well-studied material, aluminum. Combining magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) and material modeling capabilities in a Lagrangian hydrocode allows for self-consistent end-to-end simulations of MHD-driven material property experiments. Simulation results for the damage experiments compared to experimental data will be presented.

DE megagauss magnetic fields; magnetohydrodynamics; Eulerian and Lagrangian
simulations
AB We discuss various verification and validation issues in computational modeling of a series of aluminum "thick-wire," i.e., rod, experiments that have been conducted on the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR) Zebra generator (2 TW, 1 MA, 100 ns). These conceptually simple experiments involve multi-megagauss surface magnetic fields and have proven to be exceptionally rich in physical phenomena. The experiments also present severe computational challenges. We show that with a proper choice of equation-of-state and resistivity models Eulerian simulations can reproduce many of the observations to a reasonable degree. We also show that Eulerian and Lagrangian computations agree only with serious caveats, leading to the question of whether or not the computations are satisfactorily verified.

DE flux compression generators; power flow; helical generators
AB At Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory we have developed a coupled helical-coaxial FCG device called the Full Function Test (FFT). This device was used to deliver 98 MA of current and 66 MJ of energy to an inductive load. The successful testing of the FFT represented the culmination of an effort to establish a high-energy pulsed power program that would greatly exceed the performance of capacitor bank facilities. Using the modeling, design, and experimental capabilities developed for the FFT, we have developed a new generator, the Mini-G. Based upon a half-scaling of the FFT device, the Mini-G is a coupled helical-coaxial FCG capable of delivering up to 60 MA of current and 8 MJ of energy. We will describe the design of this generator which involved the use of simulation codes as well as innovative pulsed power techniques to obtain a compact, optimized device.

DE pulsed power hydrodynamics; liners; proton radiography
AB The PHELIX pulsed power project will introduce magnetically driven hydrodynamics experiments to the Los Alamos National Laboratory's proton radiography facility (pRad). The Precision High Energy-density Liner Implosion eXperiment (PHELIX) has been commissioned at Los Alamos. A small footprint capacitor bank consisting of four parallel, air-insulated, single-stage, marx units (U similar to 300 kJ) is cable coupled to a toroidal, current step-up transformer to deliver multi-megampere current pulses (t(pulse) similar to 10 mu s) to cm size cylindrical loads. In a sequence of tests the performance of each component (capacitor bank and transformer) was evaluated and compared to a computer model. The transformer coupling was observed to be k similar to 0.93. A series of liner implosion experiments has been performed in which an aluminum liner (R similar to 3 cm, r = 0.8 mm, L = 3 cm) was accelerated to a velocity of similar to 1 km/s. The suite of machine diagnostics included linear Rogowski coils and Faraday rotation for current measurements. The experimental diagnostics include B-dot probes, multi-channel photon Doppler velocimetry (PDV), and single-frame, flash X-radiography to evaluate the performance of the high precision liner implosion. Currently, work is focused on integrating PHELIX into normal operations with the 800 MeV proton radiography facility at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE), to enable high-resolution, high-frame-rate imaging of hydrodynamic experiments.

ID PLASMA-FLOW SWITCH
AB The approach called PHELIX, for Precision High Energy-density Liner Implosion eXperiment, provides a technique to allow research on high energy-density phenomena associated with liner implosions in a scaled-down system suitable for use with proton radiography. In the embodiment selected at Los Alamos National Laboratory, a static transformer arrangement is used to obtain currents in excess of 5MA from a compact, 486 kJ capacitor bank that provides 1.3 MA to the primary circuit. The cm-scale liner implosion on the secondary side successfully attains speeds in the km/s range. It has been noted that the ratio of load current to bank energy is almost an order of magnitude higher using this transformer technique than achievable with direct drive from high energy capacitor banks. This increase in current per stored-joule offers the opportunity for using similar transformer arrangements for other applications apart from imploding liners. These potential applications include rail-guns, and the dense plasma focus (DPF). In the latter case, the strong dependence of neutron yield on peak current (Y similar to J4, perhaps) places a premium on performing DPF research at higher currents. For systems comparable to the PHELIX apparatus at LANL, modest capacitor banks may thus allow progress on DPF studies without demanding large systems, such as Shiva Star or Atlas. Similar improvements in the current per joule may also apply to explosively-driven generator sources, thereby reducing the resources required for explosive operation. Larger devices to obtain operation at much higher currents (e.g., beyond Z) may also be possible. Results from the dimensionless analyses previously used successfully to design PHELIX will be described for these new applications and design limitations will be discussed. Such limitations may require a shift to dynamically-switched vs static transformer operation, which may be satisfactory for experiments that involve significant load and diagnostic refurbishment each shot.

AB Metal surfaces exposed to pulsed high magnetic fields in vacuum can experience phase transitions within the metal, vapor over the surface and the development of various dynamic and thermal phenomena that can adversely affect performance. The desired performance may include implosion of a liner without deleterious effects of perturbation growth on the outer surface, or liner compression of buffer magnetic flux surrounding plasma without penetration by high-Z metal vapor. The complexity of interactions and processes has made this a long-standing problem for both theoretical modeling and experimental diagnosis. As a guide for further work, the present paper steps through the physical evolution of the several portions of the surface layer from early heating by skin currents and vapor production, to the possible transition of this vapor into significant plasma. With additional heating, after the onset of nonlinear diffusion, the current density in the metal near the surface becomes roughly uniform and continued resistive heating allows transition from solid to liquid state. As a liquid subject to acceleration, perturbations can grow exponentially. Such growth, however, is restrained for perturbations with wavelengths not small compared to the thickness of the liquid layer. Similar restrained growth of perturbations can occur in the vapor/plasma layer, which may also be thinner than wavelengths of concern (e.g., thickness of region of buffer flux). Experimental attempts to understand the evolution described here suffer due to severe variations of material properties from the metal surface through vapor and plasma, with opportunities for inhomogeneities and nonequilibrium in many forms, and associated uncertainties in transport properties and observed radiation.

DE flux compression generator; explosive pulsed power
AB LLNL has developed a family of advanced magnetic flux compression generators (FCGs) used to perform high energy density physics experiments and material science studies. In recent years we have performed these experiments at explosive test sites in New Mexico and Nevada. In 2011, we re-established an explosive pulsed power test facility closer to Livermore. LLNL's Site 300 is a U.S. DOE-NNSA experimental test site situated on 7000 acres in rural foothills approximately 15 miles southeast of Livermore. It was established in 1955 as a non-nuclear explosives test facility to support LLNL's national security mission. On this site there are numerous facilities for fabricating, storing, assembling, and testing explosive devices. Site 300 is also home to some of DOE's premier facilities for hydrodynamic testing, with sophisticated diagnostics such as high-speed imaging, flash X-ray radiography, and other advanced diagnostics for performing unique experiments such as shock physics experiments, which examine how materials behave under high pressure and temperature. We have converted and upgraded one particular firing bunker at Site 300 (known as Bunker 851) to provide the necessary infrastructure to support high explosive pulsed power (HEPP) experiments. In doing so, we were able to incorporate our established practices for handling grounding, shielding, and isolation of auxiliary systems and diagnostics, in order to effectively manage the large voltages produced by FCGs, and minimize unwanted coupling to diagnostic data. This paper will discuss some of the key attributes of the Bunker 851 facility, including the specialized firesets and isolated initiation systems for multistage explosive systems, a detonator-switched seed bank that operates while isolated from earth and building ground, a fiber-optic based timing, triggering and control system, an EMI Faraday cage that completely encloses diagnostic sensors, cabling and high-resolution digitizers, optical fiber-based velocimetry and current sensor systems, and a flash X-ray radiography system. The photos and experimental results from recent FCG experiments will also be shown and discussed.

AB Our objective is to create a unique environment consisting of a magnetized high energy density plasma (n similar to 10(19) cm(-3), T similar to 10 keV) produced by laser irradiation of atomic or molecular clusters in a megagauss magnetic field. With deuterium or CD4 clusters the DD fusion neutron yield can be up to 10(7) neutrons/shot. Requirements on the magnetic field source are: on-axis field strength of 1-2 megagauss in a cylindrical volume of 1 cm(3) (reaching beta similar to 1 for 10 keV plasma), portability so it can be installed at laser facilities e.g. Texas Petawatt Laser (TPW), operation in vacuum conditions, and constant field for similar to 100 ns. In a collaboration between the University of Texas at Austin (UT) and Sandia National Laboratories (SNL), we have designed, built, and tested a pulsed power source suitable for cluster fusion experiments at the TPW. Some of the salient design features include use of low inductance circuit elements, a single-turn coil, ten 3.1 mu F 100 kV high energy density capacitors (15.5 kJ each), and one high voltage spark gap switch per capacitor. Each capacitor discharges via six high voltage cables into a conical transmission line, which feeds into a vacuum chamber through an insulator stack similar to that of the Z machine at SNL. Current rise time is 1.7 mu s with peak current up to 2 MA; system inductance is about 48 nH, including the single-turn coil. A major challenge was to drive the current through the coil in vacuum conditions without a significant inductance penalty or damage to the vacuum system. The single-turn coil, made from 1/8 '' thick copper, is destroyed every shot. Clearing shot debris, replacing the coil, and achieving the required vacuum pressure of <= 10(-5) Torr reduces the repetition rate to 2 - 3 shots per day.

AB UAV-based hyperspectral remote sensing capabilities developed by the Idaho National Lab and Idaho State University, Boise Center Aerospace Lab, were recently tested via demonstration flights that explored the influence of altitude on geometric error, image mosaicking, and dryland vegetation classification. The test flights successfully acquired usable flightline data capable of supporting classifiable composite images. Unsupervised classification results support vegetation management objectives that rely on mapping shrub cover and distribution patterns. Overall, supervised classifications performed poorly despite spectral separability in the image-derived endmember pixels. In many cases, the supervised classifications accentuated noise or features in the mosaic that were artifacts of color balancing and "feathering" areas of flightline overlap. Future mapping efforts that leverage ground reference data, ultra-high spatial resolution photos and time series analysis should be able to effectively distinguish native grasses such as Sandberg bluegrass (Poa secunda), from invasives such as burr buttercup (Ranunculus testiculatus).

AB Engineering design holds great potential as a STEM instructional approach. By capitalizing on the design process teachers can enhance student engagement, motivation, application of knowledge, and self assessment; elements essential for deep learning in STEM. Yet, many K-12 educators are not familiar with the structure, elements, and process of engineering design. Their unfamiliarity indicates a need to address K-12 teacher knowledge of engineering design to prepare them to use the process for instruction. We answered this call by making engineering design a theme and focus of a residential four-day summer institute for K-12 teachers. Through a combination of presentations, hands-on activities and examples of profession engineering applications, we provided 250 K-12 educators with foundational knowledge of the design process. Our pre to post-institute measures revealed significant increases in their knowledge of design and increases in their ability to communicate the similarities and/or differences between scientific inquiry and engineering design. Implications and directions for further research are discussed.

AB The use of quizzes to enhance learning outcomes has been used by educators in several courses to various degrees of success. On our campus the class on numerical methods has been offered for the past two summers as a hybrid course, with both the online and face-to-face components. As it is a course offered in the summer's shortened eight-week session, the 3-credit hour course in only a face-to-face class setting typically meets two hours, thrice a week. The hybrid course that was taught in the past two summers met once a week and the other two meetings were conducted as "online" meetings. The purpose of this paper is a description of how an existing course was transformed to a hybrid course and how the use of online activities such as quizzes and discussion forums has helped in the student performances in the course.
By assigning a substantial portion of the course grade to online quizzes and homework (in this course 20%), the author essentially forced the students to use the Blackboard Vista course management system (http://blackboard.com), which is available freely to our students on campus. The Blackboard Vista system is also available to students either on-campus or off-campus. Technology and skill requirements are made clear to the students who sign up for the course. The students are also made aware of the participation expectations. For the pilot study the author used online quizzes to help him in the teaching delivery of the numerical methods course. In addition, one of the other requirements for the online portion of the course was that all students had to participate actively in online discussion forums. Only 5% of the course grade was attributed to the online discussions. The students had to post at least one new discussion thread on a topic and respond to at least two others. The discussions were monitored by the author and the rules of "netiquette" were explained at the beginning of the course making it very clear that any use of "foul" language will not be tolerated. It was not very surprising to find that the students who took the online quizzes and who participated actively in the online discussion forums actually performed much better in their mid-term and final exams than those that didn't participate actively in the online activities. There were no control groups set to determine the effect of taking online quizzes and participating in online discussion forums. It just so happened that two or three students did not participate actively in the online quizzes and/or discussions. Therefore it was possible to do a comparison between those who participated in online activities with those who did not.

AB Technological literacy is an important outcome for a non-STEM student taking a required science course to function effectively in our technology driven economy. We have found that the development of technological literacy in a non-STEM science course benefited from our experience in teaching engineering technology courses and practical field training with students. Social technological issues such as the pros and cons of various energy sources and genetically modified food are crucial elements for choices in a democratic society. The understanding of current personal technological devices, such as cell phones, and the pivotal science-based technology for the expected next generation of products could fundamentally shift understanding of technology with a positive effect on the economy. Such emphases have been taught in the two introductory science courses, Principles of Astronomy and Space, and Principles of Physics. Examples in imaging, remote sensing and control, wireless communication, fusion, radioactive dating, and others have been used to convey technological literacy in three cognitive dimensions: (1) knowledge, (2) capabilities, and (3) critical thinking and decision-making, consistent with the recommendation of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE). The astronomy course, which includes discussion of NASA priorities and operations, has been found to fulfill the five technological literacy expectations recommended by International Technology Education Association (ITEA); in addition to the usual science literacy requirement. Junior high school science sessions have been conducted with the inclusion of technological literacy as well, and our preliminary findings suggest that technological literacy would promote interests of parents and provide encouragement for STEM majors in families.

AB The Arduino microcontroller has been incorporated in our community college student projects, including interface with GPS receiver for the application of measuring ionospheric disturbance. Our Arduino microcontroller was designed with an ATmega328 chip that enables the training of our community college students to work on the CUNY miniaturized satellite (CubeSat) project at the NASA critical review phase. The Arduino teaching protocol was implemented with our experience in teaching the National Instruments LabVIEW controlled data acquisition board and Lego Mindstorms NXT programming lessons. Particular satellite engineering criteria, such as power consumption, interface algorithm, etc., are highlighted in contrast to those criteria in a typical data acquisition environment. The operation timing issue in CubeSat module necessitates the inclusion of number crunching in the Arduino lessons as well. Arduino microcontroller application was found to be supportive in a laser lab class where students learn about general lab control and data acquisition techniques in addition to their laser work. Less critical applications such as FM detection with Arduino microcontrollers are popular in hobby electronics and readily attract the attention of students in introductory lab sessions. Currently an application of the Arduino microcontroller in field operation is being developed with Brookhaven National Lab to strengthen our engineering technology curriculum. Extension to the use of Arduino microcontroller in atmospheric disturbance studies is also discussed.

AB High on-chip temperatures adversely affect the reliability of processors, and reliability has become a serious concern as high performance computing moves towards exascale. While dynamic thermal management techniques can effectively constrain the chip temperature, most prior work has focused on temperature and reliability optimization of a single processor. In this work, we propose a topology-aware workload allocation policy to optimize the reliability of multi-chip multicore systems at runtime. Our results show that the proposed policy improves the system reliability by up to 123.3% compared to existing temperature balancing policies when systems have medium to high utilization. We also demonstrate that the policy is scalable to larger systems and its performance overhead is minimal.

AB The density of porous granular jets is a difficult to measure characteristic of a class of non-metallic shaped charges. Flash x-ray experiments provide for a fairly accurate assessment of the diameter of the porous jet as a function of time and distance while the density measurement is more qualitative than quantitative. We utilize a new diagnostic that provides for a time resolved experimental technique of measuring the impulse applied by the porous jet during impact with a target. The impulse measurement allows for a quantitative assessment of the density of the porous granular jet as a function of time and distance. The new diagnostic technique provides the force-time history of the jet impacting a high strength bar. The force-time history is directly proportional to the product of the jet density and cross-sectional area (rho(j*)A(j)) of the impacting jet. Computational analysis of the shaped charge liner collapse and jet formation provides the variable virtual origin characteristics which are used to define the X-T diagram for the jet. The virtual origin, initial liner density, and multiple data sets of the jet force-time history vs standoff allow us to characterize the density of the granular porous jet as a function of time and distance as well as jet velocity.

AB In a long-haul sensor network, sensors are remotely deployed over a large geographical area to perform certain tasks. We consider a class of such networks where sensors take measurements of one or more dynamic targets and send state estimates of the target(s) to a fusion center via satellite links. The severe loss and delay inherent over the satellite channels render insufficient the number of estimates successfully arriving at the fusion center, thereby limiting the potential fusion gain and resulting in suboptimal accuracy performance of the fused estimates. The system can adopt certain retransmission-based transport protocols so that lost messages can be recovered over time. However, excess delay may be incurred that can potentially violate the deadline for reporting the estimate. For many applications, though, retrodiction/smoothing techniques can be applied so that the chances of incurring such excess delay are greatly reduced. In this work, we analyze the extent to which retrodiction, along with message retransmission, can improve the performance of delay-sensitive state estimation tasks. Results of numerical and simulation studies of an illustrative example and a ballistic target tracking application are shown in the end to demonstrate the validity of our analysis.

AB The bipolarity of Supernova 1987A can be understood through its very early light curve from the CTIO 0.4m telescope and IUE FES and following speckle observations of the "Mystery Spot". These indicate a beam/jet of light/particles, with initial collimation factors > 104 and velocities > 0.95 c, involving up to 10-5M(circle dot) interacting with circumstellar material. These can be produced by a model of pulsar emission from polarization currents induced/(modulated faster than c) beyond the pulsar light cylinder by the periodic electromagnetic field (supraluminally induced polarization currents (SLIP)). SLIP accounts for the disruption of supernova progenitors and their anomalous dimming at cosmological distances, jets from Sco X-1 and SS 433, the lack/presence of pulsations from the high-/low-luminosity low-mass X-ray binaries, and long/short gamma-ray bursts, and it predicts that their afterglows are the pulsed optical-/near-infrared emission associated with these pulsars. SLIP may also account for the TeV e(+)/e(-) results from PAMELA and ATIC, the WMAP "Haze"/Fermi "Bubbles," andthe r-process. SLIP jets from SNe of the first stars may allow galaxies to form without dark matter and explain the peculiar nongravitational motions between pairs of distant galaxies observed by GALEX.

AB The potential of semifluorinated polymers thin nanocomposite films to form responsive interfaces is demonstrated. The changes that take place in a random copolymer Biphenyl Perfluorocyclobutane (BPh-PFCB) impregnated with Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxane (POSS) nanoparticles (NPs) exposed to humidity were followed by neutron reflectometery. The response to water is affected by the dispersion of the NPs which is strongly influenced by the semifluorinated nature of the polymer. Thin films of the pristine polymer consist of layered structures with the air interface rich with the fluorinated block. Pristine BPh-PFCB polymer films were surprisingly fully wetted by water, with distinct accumulation of liquid at the air/polymer and substrate/polymer interface. Upon exposure of the nanocomposite thin films to water vapor, compositional changes took place at the interfaces, which demonstrate the ability of the hybrid film to respond. The response mechanism encompasses the effect of fluorination that controls the interactions of the NPs within the polymer, coupled with entropic driving forces.

AB Data fusion for process control involves the presentation of synthesized sensor data in a manner that highlights the most important system states to an operator. The design of a data fusion interface must strike a balance between providing a process overview to the operator while still helping the operator pinpoint anomalies as needed. With the inclusion of a predictor system in the process control interface, additional design requirements must be considered, including the need to convey uncertainty regarding the prediction and to minimize nuisance alarms. This paper reviews these issues and establishes a design process for data fusion interfaces centered on creating a concept of operations as the basis for a design style guide.

ID MODEL; WEB
AB Information foraging theory articulates the role of the human as an "informavore" that seeks information and follows optimal foraging strategies (i.e., the "information scent") to find meaningful information. This paper briefly reviews the findings from information foraging theory outside the nuclear domain and then discusses the types of information foraging strategies operators employ for normal and off-normal operations in the control room. For example, operators may employ a predatory "wolf" strategy of hunting for information in the face of a plant upset. However, during routine operations, the operators may employ a trapping "spider" strategy of waiting for relevant indicators to appear. This delineation corresponds to information pull and push strategies, respectively. No studies have been conducted to determine explicitly the characteristics of a control room interface that is optimized for both push and pull information foraging strategies, nor has there been empirical work to validate operator performance when transitioning between push and pull strategies. This paper explores examples of control room operators as wolves vs. spiders and concludes by proposing a set of research questions to investigate information foraging in control room settings.

We present our model for understanding these interrelationships; the initiatives that were undertaken to improve overall performance.

AB Importance measures usually address either small changes in component performance, as it is the case of the Differential, Birnbaum and Criticality importance measures, or drastic changes, as in the case of Risk Achievment and Risk Reduction Worth, or status quo, as in the case of the Fussell-Vesely (FV) importance measure. Recently, the total order reliability importance measure (D-T) has been introduced to cope with the presence of finite changes. In this work, discuss the relationship between FV and D-T. This relationship helps us providing further insights on the meaning of both FV and D-T.

AB Risk or Reliability Achievement Worth (RAW) is one of the most widely employed importance measures. RAW is defined as the ratio of the reliability (or risk metric) value attained when a component is failed over the base case value of the reliability. Both the numerator and denominator are typically point estimates. In this work, we extend RAW to the case in which epistemic uncertainty is taken into consideration (epistemic RAW; ERAW). ERAW considers the effect of the component being down not only on the reliability point estimate but on its entire epistemic distribution. We discuss the properties of the new measure for series and parallel systems. In particular, for series systems, we show that aleatory uncertainty makes the value of ERAW independent of epistemic uncertainty.

ID ATMOSPHERIC BOUNDARY-LAYER; RADIATION FOG; PHYSICS
AB The prediction of fogs is one of the processes not well reproduced by the Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. In particular, the role of turbulence in the formation or dissipation of fogs is one of the physical processed not well understood, and therefore, not well parameterized by the NWP models. Observational analysis of three different periods with fogs at the Spanish Northern Plateau has been carried out. These periods have also been simulated with the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) numerical model and their results have been compared to observations. The study includes a comparison of the skill of different planetary boundary layer (PBL) parameterizations, surface layer schemes and a test of the gravitational settling of clouds/fogs droplets option. A statistical analysis of this comparison has been evaluated in order to study differences between the periods and between the various parameterizations used. The model results for each PBL parameterization were different, depending on the studied period, due to differences in the features of each fog. This fact made it difficult to obtain generalized conclusions, but allowed us to determine which parameterization performed better for each case. In general, judging from the models results of liquid water content (LWC), none of the PBL schemes were able to correctly simulate the fogs, being Mellor-Yamada Nakanishi and Niino (MYNN) 2.5 level PBL scheme the best one in most of the cases. This conclusion is also supported by the root mean square error (RMSE) calculated for different meteorological variables.

ID TURBULENCE; MODEL
AB Micrometeorological observations from two months (July-August 2009) at the CIBA site (Northern Spanish plateau) have been used to evaluate the evolution of atmospheric stability and turbulence parameters along the evening transition to a Nocturnal Boundary Layer. Turbulent Kinetic Energy thresholds have been established to distinguish between diverse case studies. Three different types of transitions are found, whose distinctive characteristics are shown. Simulations with the Weather Research and Forecasting-Advanced Research WRF (WRF-ARW) mesoscale model of selected transitions, using three different PBL parameterizations, have been carried out for comparison with observed data. Depending on the atmospheric conditions, different PBL schemes appear to be advantageous over others in forecasting the transitions.

DE Generalized Symmetric Eigenvalue Problem; Tile Algorithms; Tridiagonal
Reduction; Bulge Chasing; Dynamic Scheduling for Multicore Systems
AB This paper proposes an efficient implementation of the generalized symmetric eigenvalue problem on multicore architecture. Based on a four-stage approach and tile algorithms, the original problem is first transformed into a standard symmetric eigenvalue problem by computing the Cholesky factorization of the right hand side symmetric definite positive matrix (first stage), and applying the inverse of the freshly computed triangular Cholesky factors to the original dense symmetric matrix of the problem (second stage). Calculating the eigenpairs of the resulting problem is then equivalent to the eigenpairs of the original problem. The computation proceeds by reducing the updated dense symmetric matrix to symmetric band form (third stage). The band structure is further reduced by applying a bulge chasing procedure, which annihilates the extra off-diagonal entries using orthogonal transformations (fourth stage). More details on the third and fourth stage can be found in Haidar et al. [Accepted at SC' 11, November 2011]. The eigenvalues are then calculated from the tridiagonal form using the standard LAPACK QR algorithm (i.e., DTSEQR routine), while the complex and challenging eigenvector computations will be addressed in a companion paper. The tasks from the various stages can concurrently run in an out-of-order fashion. The data dependencies are cautiously tracked by the dynamic runtime system environment QUARK, which ensures the dependencies are not violated for numerical correctness purposes. The obtained tile four-stage generalized symmetric eigenvalue solver significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art numerical libraries (up to 21-fold speed up against multithreaded LAPACK with optimized multithreaded MKL BLAS and up to 4-fold speed up against the corresponding routine from the commercial numerical software Intel MKL) on four sockets twelve cores AMD system with a 24000x24000 matrix size.

DE POSIX I/O; MPI-IO; TAU; Instrumentation; GCRM
AB TAU is an integrated toolkit for performance instrumentation, measurement, and analysis. It provides a flexible, portable, and scalable set of technologies for performance evaluation on extreme-scale HPC systems. This paper describes alternatives for I/O instrumentation provided by TAU and the design and implementation of a new tool, tau_gen_wrapper, to wrap external libraries. It describes three instrumentation techniques - preprocessor based substitution, linker based instrumentation, and library preloading based replacement of routines. It demonstrates this wrapping technology in the context of intercepting the POSIX I/O library and its application to profiling I/O calls for the Global Cloud Resolution Model (GCRM) application on the Cray XE6 system. This scheme allows TAU to track I/O using linker level instrumentation for statically linked executables and attribute the I/O to specific code regions. It also addresses issues encountered in collecting the performance data from large core counts and representing this data to correctly identify sources of poor I/O performance.

AB NOvA is an off-axis long baseline neutrino experiment searching for v(mu) -> v(e) oscillations us an upgraded NuMI neutrino beam from Fermilab, Batavia, IL. The main physics goal is a measurement or strong limit on the neutrino mixing. :le theta(13). For sufficiently large values of theta(13), NOvA will also be sensitive to measuring CP violation and establishing the neutrino masses hierarchy. A large 14 kton Far detector, comprised of liquid scintillator contained in extruded PVC cells, will provide an opportunity for other non-acceleraor physics searches. While civil construction at the far detector IS underway, a smaller prototype near detector has been assembled at Fermilab and is being studied.

AB The CMS collaboration has made several large event datasets public for educational and outreach purposes, including more than 300k events containing pairs of electrons, muons and jets.
The data are prepared and published using an extensible, text-based (JSON) data format. With these datasets students learn about scientific analysis through searches and studies of J/psi,Y, W and Z particles. Students explore the data using an experiment-independent online event display and histogram tool, often as part of international educational programs in Europe, the USA, and the rest of the world such as I2U2, the IPPOG Masterclasses, and QuarkNet.
I describe the current status of these activities, the positive feedback from the students, and the bright future outlook, including the great potential to broaden these activities to a wider range of experiments and audiences.

AB The ACME group proposes to install a surface array of scintillation detectors at LHC point 1 above the ATLAS detector. This surface array in combination with the muon system of ATLAS allows two complimentary independent measurements of the electromagnetic and hadronic components of cosmic ray showers with particular sensitivity to the knee region of the cosmic ray energy spectrum. ACME will be a sensitive instrument for the study of primary composition, exotics such as centauro and anti-centauro events and the excess of high multiplicity muon bundles observed by such experiments as CosmoALEPH. The surface array also presents an outreach opportunity with students being involved in the construction and testing of detectors.

AB The layer-by-layer nature of ALD allows precise control of surface composition in the growth direction normal to the surface. However, it is harder to control the amount of material incorporated during a single ALD cycle. Recently, we demonstrated an approach based on incorporating an in-situ surface functionalization step into each ALD cycle.[1] This step essentially controls the amount of reactive sites on the surface, ideally modulating the saturation coverage while maintaining the self-limiting surface chemistry. In this work we present in-situ surface and gas phase Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy studies for Al2O3 ALD using exposures to ethanol (EtOH), trimethyl aluminum (TMA), and H2O. Our results showed that the TMA surface coverage was reduced with respect to the conventional TMA/H2O case. We also found that a fraction of the adsorbed EtOH was removed during the TMA dose, and we identified dimethyl aluminum ethoxide as a reaction byproduct. Our results are consistent with a mechanism in which a fraction of the adsorbed ethoxides is displaced through ligand exchange with TMA, leaving methyl groups on the surface.

AB Great progress has been achieved in the field of homogeneous transition metal-based catalysis; however, as a general rule these solution-based catalysts are still easily outperformed by their analogous enzyme counterparts, in terms of both rates and selectivity. This includes structural mimics of enzymatic active sites. This observation suggests that the features of the enzyme beyond the active site, i.e., the outer-coordination sphere, are important for enzymes' exceptional function. Directly mimicking the outer-coordination sphere requires the incorporation of amino acids and peptides as ligands for homogeneous catalysts. This effort has been attempted for many homogeneous catalysts which span the manifold of catalytic reactions including hydrogenation, hydroformylation, hydrogen production, oxygen activation, dioxygen transport, electron transfer, disproportionation of the superoxide anion radical, acylation, phosphorylation, esterification, ester hydrolysis, and hydrogen peroxide disproportionation. How much of the outer-coordination sphere to include in molecular catalysts and the preferential structural conformation of the appended section are long-standing questions. Synthetically incorporating an amino acid-or peptide-based outer-coordination sphere requires care to avoid unwanted side reactions with the large number of functional groups. Catalysis with amino acid or peptide containing catalysts requires careful consideration of solvent and pH to promote solubility, stabilize structure, optimize catalysis, and avoid catalyst degradation. This article reviews the current capability of synthesizing and characterizing this often challenging but very promising category of metal-based catalysts.

ID OXIDE ELECTRODES; STABILIZED ZIRCONIA
AB Commercial manufacturing methods have been used to fabricate a planar, self-heated, tape-cast, mixed-potential NOx sensor for application in vehicle on-board emission control systems. The device consists of dense La0.8Sr0.2CrO3 (LSCrO) and Pt electrodes and a porous YSZ electrolyte on one side of a dense ceramic substrate and a Pt-heater with independent leads on the backside of the substrate. These planar mixed-potential sensors are capable of selectively detecting ppm levels of NOx when operated at a positive bias. Additionally, the device has yielded stable performance under months of testing as a result of the stable morphology of the electrode/electrolyte/gas phase interface.

ID GRAPHITE OXIDE
AB Carbon composite micro-electromechanical systems (C-MEMS) incorporating 2 wt.% graphene stiffeners show a 65% increase in Young's modulus and 11% increase in conductivity. An improved reduced graphene oxide (iRGO), is blended into pyrolytic carbon beams prepared for resonant frequency testing. Designed around a 10: 1 (length: width) aspect ratio, the linearity of wt.% iRGO in the cantilevers as a function of resonant frequencies is evaluated. The collection of the 1st through 3rd bending modes using laser doppler velocimetery (LDV) of the graphene filled cantilevers shows an increase in frequency response with nanomaterial loading (wt.%). A model was developed using the 3-bending modes and correlated with cross sectional geometry and density to extract a Young's modulus.

AB Metal-Organic frameworks (MOFs) with their high surface area, excellent chemical and thermal stability and analyte specific adsorption make them promising material for gas sensing/storage. In this paper, a vapor detection sensor based on HKUST-1 MOF is presented. HKUST-1 with the above mentioned properties makes it an ideal material to be used with strain based piezoresistive microcantilever sensor. Cantilever sensors which were fabricated, characterized and coated with HKUST-1 were exposed to different Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) including acetone, isopropanol, methanol and water at varying concentrations. From our experiments, we observe that the device is able to distinguish between the different analytes quantitatively based on their time constants for adsorption or desorption. The results show that acetone has the highest time constant while water has the lowest time constant.

AB We present arguments and evidence against the hypothesis that a large impact or airburst caused a significant abrupt climate change, extinction event, and termination of the Clovis culture at 12.9 ka. It should be noted that there is not one single Younger Dryas (YD) impact hypothesis but several that conflict with one another regarding many significant details. Fragmentation and explosion mechanisms proposed for some of the versions do not conserve energy or momentum, no physics-based model has been presented to support the various concepts, and existing physical models contradict them. In addition, the a priori odds of the impact of a >4 km comet in the prescribed configuration on the Laurentide Ice Sheet during the specified time period are infinitesimal, about one in 10(15). There are three broad classes of counterarguments. First, evidence for an impact is lacking. No impact craters of the appropriate size and age are known, and no unambiguously shocked material or other features diagnostic of impact have been found in YD sediments. Second, the climatological, paleontological, and archeological events that the YD impact proponents are attempting to explain are not unique, are arguably misinterpreted by the proponents, have large chronological uncertainties, are not necessarily coupled, and do not require an impact. Third, we believe that proponents have misinterpreted some of the evidence used to argue for an impact, and several independent researchers have been unable to reproduce reported results. This is compounded by the observation of contamination in a purported YD sample with modern carbon.

AB Program inversion has been successfully applied to several areas such as optimistic parallel discrete event simulation (OPDES) and reverse debugging. This paper introduces a new program inversion algorithm for imperative languages, and focuses on handling arbitrary control flows and basic operations. By building a value search graph that represents recoverability relationships between variable values, we turn the problem of recovering previous values into a graph search one. Forward and reverse code is generated according to the search results. We have implemented our algorithm as part of a compiler framework named Backstroke, a C++ source-to-source translator based on ROSE compiler. Backstroke targets optimistic simulation codes and automatically generates a reverse function to recover values modified by a target function. Experimental results show that our method is effective and produces better performance than previously proposed methods.

AB A hyperelastic strain energy function for foamed rubber that is based on the physical features of a typical uniaxial compression curve for foams and the behavior of a spherical pore in a spherical, incompressible Mooney-Rivlin matrix is presented. The model is unconditionally stable when positive moduli are used, and can represent most foam test data, including variable Poisson behavior during compression. This most general model has six parameters, including four moduli, a dimensionless parameter associated with buckling or plateau strain, and an initial porosity. The model will be described and its ability to fit compression response data for PDMS foams over a range of relative densities will be evaluated. Several potential extensions of this model will be discussed, including representation of the Mullins effect, representation of aging behavior, inclusion of matrix compressibility, and modeling the effect of pore gas response.

ID POLYMERIC MATERIALS; OXIDATION; MODEL
AB Ageing of elastomeric materials is an important subject in product development concerning lifetime prediction. Because of environmental influences like temperature, oxygen, radiation and similar conditions rubber and elastomers will change their material properties and hence affect the lifetime. The reason for this material change is the modification of the polymer network. In case of sulphur cured natural rubber it can result in hardening of the material and pronounced surface hardening for thick-walled products. This is known as the Diffusion-Limited Oxidation effect (DLO) when oxidation is the key environmental influence. This paper describes a model which is designed to calculate the change in network density caused by thermo-oxidative ageing and the required measurements for the parameterisation.

AB The Christmas burst, GRB 101225A, was one of the most controversial bursts in the last few years. Its exceptionally long duration but bright X-ray emission showing a thermal component followed by a strange afterglow with a thermal SED lead to two different interpretations. We present here our model ascribing this strange event to a new type of GRB progenitor consisting of a neutron star and an evolved main-sequence star in a very faint galaxy at red shift 0.33 while Campana et al. (2011) proposed a Galactic origin. New observations at several wavelengths might resolve the question between the two models in the near future.

AB We present photometry and spectroscopy of the peculiar Type II supernova SN 2010jp, also named PTF10aaxi. The light curve exhibits a linear decline with a relatively low peak absolute magnitude of only -15.9 (unfiltered), and a low radioactive decay luminosity at late times that suggests a low synthesized nickel mass of about 0.003 M circle dot or less. Spectra of SN 2010jp display an unprecedented triple-peaked Ha line profile, showing: (1) a narrow central component that suggests shock interaction with a dense circumstellar medium (CSM); (2) high-velocity blue and red emission features centered at -12,600 and +15,400 km s(-1); and (3) very broad wings extending from -22,000 to +25,000 km s(-1). We propose that this line profile indicates a bipolar jet-driven explosion, with the central component produced by normal SN ejecta and CSM interaction at mid and low latitudes, while the high-velocity bumps and broad line wings arise in a nonrelativistic bipolar jet. Jet -driven SNe II are predicted for collapsars resulting from a wide range of initial masses above 25 M circle dot, especially at the sub-solar metallicity consistent with the SN host environment. It also seems consistent with the apparently low Ni-56 mass that may accompany black hole formation. We speculate that the jet survives to produce observable signatures because the star's H envelope was very low mass, having been mostly stripped away by the previous eruptive mass loss.

AB Massive Population III stars die as pair-instability supernovae (PI SNe), the most energetic thermonuclear explosions in the universe with energies up to 100 times those of Type Ia or Type II SNe. Their extreme luminosities may allow them to be observed from the earliest epochs, revealing the nature of Pop III stars and the primitive galaxies in which they reside. We present numerical simulations of Pop III PI SNe done with the radiation hydrodynamics code RAGE and calculations of their light curves and spectra performed with the SPECTRUM code. We find that 150 - 250 M circle dot PI SNe will be visible to the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) out to z similar to 30 and to z similar to 15 - 20 in all-sky NIR surveys by the Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST).

AB We have obtained optical integral field spectroscopy of the explosion sites of more than 25 nearby type-IIP/IIL/Ib/Ic supernovae using UH88/SNIFS, and additionally Gemini/GMOS IFU. This technique enables us to obtain both spatial and spectral information of the immediate environment of the supernovae. Using strong line method we measured the metallicity of the star cluster present at the explosion site, presumably the coeval parent stellar population of the supernova progenitor, and comparison with simple stellar population models gives age estimate of the cluster. With this method we were able to put constraints on the metallicity and age of the progenitor star. The age, i.e. lifetime, of the progenitor corresponds to the initial mass of the star. By far this is the most direct measurement of supernova progenitor metallicity and, if the cluster-progenitor association is confirmed, provides reliable determination of the initial mass of supernova progenitor stars.

AB Understanding the intrinsic cosmic long gamma-ray burst (GRB) rate is essential in many aspects of astrophysics and cosmology, such as revealing the connection between GRBs, supernovae (SNe), and stellar evolution. Swift, a multi-wavelength space telescope, is quickly expanding the GRB category by observing hundreds of GRBs and their redshifts. However, it remains difficult to determine the intrinsic GRB rate due to the complex trigger algorithm adopted by Swift. Current studies of the GRB rate usually approximate the Swift trigger algorithm by a single detection threshold. Nevertheless, unlike the previously flown GRB instruments, Swift has over 500 trigger criteria based on count rates and additional thresholds for localization. To investigate possible systematic biases and further explore the intrinsic GRB rate as a function of redshift and the GRB luminosity function, we adopt a Monte Carlo approach by simulating all trigger criteria used by Swift. A precise estimation of the intrinsic GRB rate is important to reveal the GRB origins and their relation to the black-hole forming SNe. Additionally, the GRB rate at high redshifts provides a strong probe of the star formation history in the early universe, which is hard to measure directly through other methods.

DE (ISM:) supernova remnants; diffusion; hydrodynamics; methods: numerical
AB Observations of supernova remnants show that large-and small scale structures form at various points in the explosion. We present a case study of structure formation in 3D in a 15 M circle dot supernova for different parameters. We investigate the structure formation and morphology of the Rayleigh-Taylor unstable region. We also propose a method of characterizing the sizes of overdense clumps that can be compared directly with observations. The RT instabilities result in clumps that are overdense by 1-2 orders of magnitude with respect to the ambient gas, have size scales on the level of a few% of the remnant diameter, and are not diffused after the first similar to 30 yrs of the remnant evolution, in the absence of a surrounding medium.

ID PMOS NBTI DEGRADATION; COMPREHENSIVE MODEL
AB The increase in the magnitude of the threshold voltage of a positive-channel metal oxide semiconductor (PMOS) under negative gate biasing (negative bias temperature instability) is attributed to the build-up of charge in the gate insulator. We have studied the charging and discharging of nitrided SiO2 gate insulator field effect transistors and through the use of pseudo-DC and pulsed stressing methods, have extracted, at least, three charging components. These components are (a) the charging of interface states at the semiconductor/insulator boundary, (b) dynamically recoverable positive charging in the "bulk" of the insulator, and (c) positive charging in the insulator, which can be "eliminated" only by application of a positive electric field across the insulator. It is proposed that the charge "elimination" in (c) arises via a charge neutralization process involving electron capture at switching traps, as opposed to de-trapping, and that this can be reversed by the application of a small negative field.

AB High-latitude carbon-climate-feedback predictions depend on predicted Active-Layer (AL) depth, permafrost (PF) depth, and Whole-Profile (WP) depth in permafrost-affected soils, yet only a few studies have reported these parameters at regional scales. We used spatially referenced soil profile (O-C horizon) description data (n = 472), environmental variables (topographic attributes, climate, land cover, and bedrock geology), and a local regression kriging approach to predict the spatial variability of AL, PF, and WP depths across Alaska at 60 m spatial resolution. We predicted that AL, PF, and WP depths ranged from 2-192, 7-200, and 18-241 cm, respectively. The lowest average prediction error (26 cm) and highest ratio of performance to deviation (1.3) was obtained for AL depth. Our study showed temperature and land cover types as primary controllers of AL depth spatial variability. Elevation and precipitation were the primary controllers of WP depth. Lower predicted spatial variability in comparison to observed data indicate that other spatial datasets than used in this study might improve regional-scale prediction of AL, PF, and WP depths.

AB The ever-increasing volumes of scientific data present new challenges for distributed computing and Grid technologies. The emerging Big Data revolution drives exploration in scientific fields including nanotechnology, astrophysics, high-energy physics, biology and medicine. New initiatives are transforming data-driven scientific fields enabling massive data analysis in new ways.
In petascale data processing scientists deal with datasets, not individual files. As a result, a task (comprised of many jobs) became a unit of petascale data processing on the Grid. Splitting of a large data processing task into jobs enabled fine-granularity checkpointing analogous to the splitting of a large file into smaller TCP/IP packets during data transfers. Transferring large data in small packets achieves reliability through automatic re-sending of the dropped TCP/IP packets. Similarly, transient job failures on the Grid can be recovered by automatic re-tries to achieve reliable 6 sigma production quality in petascale data processing on the Grid.
The computing experience of the ATLAS and CMS experiments provides foundation for reliability engineering scaling up Grid technologies for data processing beyond the petascale.

AB Volcanic eruptions induce a dynamical response in the climate system characterized by short-term global reductions in both surface temperature and precipitation, as well as a response in biogeochemistry. The available observations of these responses to volcanic eruptions, such as to Pinatubo, provide a valuable method to compare against model simulations. Here, the Community Climate System Model Version 3 (CCSM3) reproduces the physical climate response to volcanic eruptions in a realistic way, as compared to direct observations from the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo. The model's biogeochemical response to eruptions is smaller in magnitude than observed, but because of the lack of observations, it is not clear why or where the modeled carbon response is not strong enough. Comparison to other models suggests that this model response is much weaker over tropical land; however, the precipitation response in other models is not accurate, suggesting that other models could be getting the right response for the wrong reason. The underestimated carbon response in the model compared to observations could also be due to the ash and lava input of biogeochemically important species to the ocean, which are not included in the simulation. A statistically significant reduction in the simulated carbon dioxide growth rate is seen at the 90% level in the average of 12 large eruptions over the period 1870-2000, and the net uptake of carbon is primarily concentrated in the tropics, with large spatial variability. In addition, a method for computing the volcanic response in model output without using a control ensemble is tested against a traditional methodology using two separate ensembles of runs; the method is found to produce similar results in the global average. These results suggest that not only is simulating volcanoes a good test of coupled carbon-climate models, but also that this test can be performed without a control simulation in cases where it is not practical to run separate ensembles with and without volcanic eruptions.

AB Hydrogen and syngas can be produced from municipal solid waste to meet part of our energy demand. In this work, the performance of a novel, energy-efficient, solid oxide membrane (SOM) electrolyzer for the production of high purity hydrogen from steam and hydrocarbon waste such as plastics is analyzed. Energy analysis of the proposed electrolyzer shows that hydrogen can be generated at an efficiency of nearly 75%. Based on this study, design and electrode materials for commercially viable SOM electrolyzer is proposed.

AB A liquid tin anode solid oxide fuel cell is operated at 900 degrees C with a variety of fuel feeds, including argon, hydrogen, coal and a coal-water slurry. Characterization of anode performance is carried out by open circuit potential monitoring, linear potential sweeps, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy combined with equivalent circuit modeling. A cathode symmetric cell is analyzed and modeled to isolate impedance contributions resulting from ionic resistance, cathode mass transport, and cathode charge transfer; results are used to isolate anode mass transport and charge transfer impedances in the fuel cell. Open circuit potential measurements under hydrogen fuel indicate that the dominant anode reaction is electrochemical oxidation of H-2, while oxidation of Sn to SnO2 becomes the principal anodic process when the cell is fed with argon, coal, or coal-water slurry. Some chemical reduction of SnO2 to Sn by chemical reaction with coal is indicated by the cell potential.

AB Large-scale computing platforms provide tremendous capabilities for scientific discovery. As applications and system software scale up to multipetaflops and beyond to exascale platforms, the occurrence of failure will be much more common. This has given rise to a push in fault-tolerance and resilience research for high-performance computing (HPC) systems. This includes work on log analysis to identify types of failures, enhancements to the Message Passing Interface (MPI) to incorporate fault awareness, and a variety of fault tolerance mechanisms that span redundant computation, algorithm based fault tolerance, and advanced checkpoint/restart techniques.
While there is much work to be done on the FT/Resilience mechanisms for such large-scale systems, there is also a profound gap in the tools for experimentation. This gap is compounded by the fact that HPC environments have stringent performance requirements and are often highly customized. The tool chain for these systems are often tailored for the platform and the operating environments typically contain many site/machine specific enhancements. Therefore, it is desirable to maintain a consistent execution environment to minimize end-user (scientist) interruption.
The work on system-level virtualization for HPC system offers a unique opportunity to maintain a consistent execution environment via a virtual machine (VM). Recent work on virtualization for HPC has shown that low-overhead, high performance systems can be realized [7,15]. Virtualization also provides a clean abstraction for building experimental tools for investigation into the effects of failures in HPC and the related research on FT/Resilience mechanisms and policies. In this paper we discuss the motivation for tools to perform fault injection in an HPC context. We also present the design of a new fault injection framework that can leverage virtualization.

ID COMMUNICATION
AB Obtaining highly accurate predictions on properties of light atomic nuclei using the Configuration Interaction (CI) method requires computing the lowest eigenvalues and associated eigenvectors of a large many-body nuclear Hamiltonian, H. One particular approach, the J-scheme, requires the projection of the H matrix into an invariant subspace. Since the matrices can be very large, enormous computing power is needed while significant stresses are put on the memory and I/O subsystems. By exploiting the inherent localities in the problem and making use of the MPI one-sided communication routines backed by RDMA operations available in the new parallel architectures, we show that it is possible to reduce the I/O overheads drastically for large problems. This is demonstrated in the subspace projection phase of J-scheme calculations on 6 Li nucleus, where our new implementation based on one-sided MPI communications outperforms the previous I/O based implementation by almost a factor of 10.

AB The Xyce Parallel Circuit Simulator, which has demonstrated scalable circuit simulation on hundreds of processors, heavily leverages the high-performance scientific libraries provided by Trilinos. With the move towards multi-core CPUs and GPU technology, retaining this scalability on future parallel architectures will be a challenge. This paper will discuss how Trilinos is an enabling technology that will optimize the trade-off between effort and impact for application codes, like Xyce, in their transition to becoming next-generation simulation tools.

DE thick-restart Lanczos; communication-avoiding
AB The Thick-Restart Lanczos (TRLan) method is an effective method for solving large-scale Hermitian eigenvalue problems. On a modern computer, communication can dominate the solution time of TRLan. To enhance the performance of TRLan, we develop CA-TRLan that integrates communication-avoiding techniques into TRLan. To study the numerical stability and solution time of CA-TRLan, we conduct numerical experiments using both synthetic diagonal matrices and matrices from the University of Florida sparse matrix collection. Our experimental results on up to 1, 024 processors of a distributed-memory system demonstrate that CA-TRLan can achieve speedups of up to three over TRLan while maintaining numerical stability.

Design patterns arise when multiple independent development efforts produce very similar designs, yielding an evolutionary convergence onto a good solution: a flexible, maintainable, high-performance design. We demonstrate how to engender these traits by implementing an interface for sparse matrix computations on NVIDIA GPUs starting from an existing sparse matrix library. We also present initial performance results.

AB As InfiniBand (IB) clusters grow in size and scale, predicting the behavior of the IB network in terms of link usage and performance becomes an increasingly challenging task. There currently exists no open source tool that allows users to dynamically analyze and visualize the communication pattern and link usage in the IB network. In this context, we design and develop a scalable InfiniBand Network Analysis and Monitoring tool - INAM. INAM monitors IB clusters in real time and queries the various subnet management entities in the IB network to gather the various performance counters specified by the IB standard. We provide an easy to use web-based interface to visualize performance counters and subnet management attributes of a cluster in an on-demand basis. It is also capable of capturing the communication characteristics of a subset of links in the network. Our experimental results show that INAM is able to accurately visualize the link utilization as well as the communication pattern of target applications.

AB The reliability mechanisms for future exascale systems will be a key aspect of their scalability and performance. With the expected jump in hardware component counts, faults will become increasingly common compared to today's systems. Under these circumstances, the costs of current and emergent resilience methods need to be reevaluated. This includes the cost of recovery, which is often ignored in current work, and the impact of hardware features such as heterogeneous computing elements and non-volatile memory devices. We describe a simulation and modeling framework that enables the measurement of various resilience algorithms with varying application characteristics. For this framework we outline the simulator's requirements, its application communication pattern generators, and a few of the key hardware component models.

DE resilience; HPC; system monitoring
AB Building the effective HPC resilience mechanisms required for viability of next generation supercomputers will require in depth understanding of system and component behaviors. Our goal is to build an integrated framework for high fidelity long term information storage, historic and run-time analysis, algorithmic and visual information exploration to enable system understanding, timely failure detection/prediction, and triggering of appropriate response to failure situations. Since it is unknown what information is relevant and since potentially relevant data may be expressed in a variety of forms (e.g., numeric, textual), this framework must provide capabilities to process different forms of data and also support the integration of new data, data sources, and analysis capabilities. Further, in order to ensure ease of use as capabilities and data sources expand, it must also provide interactivity between its elements. This paper describes our integration of the capabilities mentioned above into our OVIS tool.

AB Exascale systems will present considerable fault-tolerance challenges to applications and system software. These systems are expected to suffer several hard and soft errors per day. Unfortunately, many fault-tolerance methods in use, such as rollback recovery, are unsuitable for many expected errors, for example DRAM failures. As a result, applications will need to address these resilience challenges to more effectively utilize future systems. In this paper, we describe work on a cross-layer application / OS framework to handle uncorrected memory errors. We illustrate the use of this framework through its integration with a new fault-tolerant iterative solver within the Trilinos library, and present initial convergence results.

AB Proposed exascale systems will present a number of considerable resiliency challenges. In particular, DRAM soft-errors, or bit-flips, are expected to greatly increase due to the increased memory density of these systems. Current hardware-based fault-tolerance methods will be unsuitable for addressing the expected soft error frequency rate. As a result, additional software will be needed to address this challenge. In this paper we introduce LIBSDC, a tunable, transparent silent data corruption detection and correction library for HPC applications. LIBSDC provides comprehensive SDC protection for program memory by implementing on-demand page integrity verification. Experimental benchmarks with Mantevo HPCCG show that once tuned, LIBSDC is able to achieve SDC protection with 50% overhead of resources, less than the 100% needed for double modular redundancy.

AB As the high performance computing (HPC) community continues to push for ever larger machines, reliability remains a serious obstacle. Further, as feature size and voltages decrease, the rate of transient soft errors is on the rise. HPC programmers of today have to deal with these faults to a small degree and it is expected this will only be a larger problem as systems continue to scale.
In this paper we present SEFI, the Soft Error Fault Injection framework, a tool for profiling software for its susceptibility to soft errors. In particular, we focus in this paper on logic soft error injection. Using the open source virtual machine and processor emulator (QEMU), we demonstrate modifying emulated machine instructions to introduce soft errors. We conduct experiments by modifying the virtual machine itself in a way that does not require intimate knowledge of the tested application. With this technique, we show that we are able to inject simulated soft errors in the logic operations of a target application without affecting other applications or the operating system sharing the VM. We present some initial results and discuss where we think this work will be useful in next generation hardware/software co-design.

ID ROLLBACK-RECOVERY; SYSTEMS
AB The increasing size and complexity of high performance computing systems have lead to major concerns over fault frequencies and the mechanisms necessary to tolerate these faults. Previous studies have shown that state-of-the-field checkpoint/restart mechanisms will not scale sufficiently for future generation systems. In this work, we explore the feasibility of checkpoint data compression to reduce checkpoint commit latency and storage overheads. Leveraging a simple model for checkpoint compression viability, we conclude that checkpoint data compression should be considered as a part of a scalable checkpoint/restart solution and discuss additional scenarios and improvements that may make checkpoint data compression even more viable.

AB We address the difficulty involved in obtaining meaningful measurements of I/O performance in HPC applications, as well as the further challenge of understanding the causes of I/O bottlenecks in these applications. The need for I/O optimization is critical given the difficulty in scaling I/O to ever increasing numbers of processing cores. To address this need, we have pioneered a new approach to the analysis of I/O performance using automatic generation of I/O benchmark codes given a high-level description of an application's I/O pattern. By combining this with low-level characterization of the performance of the various components of the underlying I/O method we are able to produce a complete picture of the I/O behavior of an application.
We compare the performance measurements obtained using Skel, the tool that implements our approach, with those of an instrumented version of the original application to show that our approach is accurate. We demonstrate the use of Skel to compare the performance of several I/O methods. Finally we show that the detailed breakdown of timing information produced by Skel provides better understanding of the reasons for the performance differences between the examined I/O methods. We conclude that our approach facilitates faster, more accurate and more meaningful I/O performance testing, allowing application I/O performance to be predicted, and new systems and I/O methods to be evaluated.

AB In this paper, we propose a novel allgather algorithm, Reindexed Recursive K-ing (RRK), which leverages flexibility in the algorithm's tree topology and ability to make asynchronous progress coupled with Core-Direct communication offload capability to optimize the MPI_Allgather for Core-Direct enabled systems. In particular, the RRK introduces a reindexing scheme which ensures contiguous data transfers while adding only a single additional send and receive operation for any radix, k, or communicator size, N. This allows us to improve algorithm scalability by avoiding the use of a scatter/gather elements (SGE) list on InfiniBand networks. The implementations of the RRK algorithm and its evaluation shows that it performs and scales well on Core-Direct systems for a wide range of message sizes and various communicator configurations.

AB Obtaining highly accurate predictions for properties of light atomic nuclei using the Configuration Interaction (CI) approach requires computing the lowest eigenvalues and associated eigenvectors of a large many-body nuclear Hamiltonian matrix, (H) over cap. Since (H) over cap is a large sparse matrix, a parallel iterative eigensolver designed for multi-core clusters is used. Due to the extremely large size of (H) over cap, thousands of compute nodes are required. Communication overhead may hinder the scalability of the eigensolver at such scales. In this paper, we discuss how to reduce such overhead. In particular, we quantitatively show that topology-aware mapping of computational tasks to physical processors on large-scale multi-core clusters may have a significant impact on efficiency. For typical large-scale eigenvalue calculations, we obtain up to a factor of 2.5 improvement in overall performance by using a topology-aware mapping.

AB This paper focuses on developing effective and efficient algorithms for compressing scientific simulation data computed on structured and unstructured grids. A paradigm for lossy compression of this data is proposed in which the data computed on the grid is modeled as a graph, which gets decomposed into sets of vertices which satisfy a user defined error constraint epsilon. Each set of vertices is replaced by a constant value with reconstruction error bounded by epsilon. A comprehensive set of experiments is conducted by comparing these algorithms and other state-of-the-art scientific data compression methods. Over our benchmark suite, our methods obtained compression of 1% of the original size with average PSNR of 43.00 and 3% of the original size with average PSNR of 63.30. In addition, our schemes outperform other state-of-the-art lossy compression approaches and require on the average 25% of the space required by them for similar or better PSNR levels.

AB In hardware-aware high performance computing, block-asynchronous iteration and mixed precision iterative refinement are two techniques that may be used to leverage the computing power of SIMD accelerators like GPUs in the iterative solution of linear equation systems. Although they use a very different approach for this purpose, they share the basic idea of compensating the convergence properties of an inferior numerical algorithm by a more efficient usage of the provided computing power. In this paper, we analyze the potential of combining both techniques. Therefore, we derive a mixed precision iterative refinement algorithm using a block-asynchronous iteration as an error correction solver, and compare its performance with a pure implementation of a block-asynchronous iteration and an iterative refinement method using double precision for the error correction solver. For matrices from the University of Florida Matrix collection, we report the convergence behaviour and provide the total solver runtime using different GPU architectures.

TI A streamlined strategy for biohydrogen production with Halanaerobium
hydrogeniformans, an alkaliphilic bacterium
SO FRONTIERS IN MICROBIOLOGY
LA English
DT Article
DE biohydrogen; extremophile; alkaliphile; biofuel
AB Biofuels are anticipated to enable a shift from fossil fuels for renewable transportation and manufacturing fuels, with biohydrogen considered attractive since it could offer the largest reduction of global carbon budgets. Currently, lignocellulosic biohydrogen production remains inefficient with pretreatments that are heavily fossil fuel-dependent. However, bacteria using alkali-treated biomass could streamline biofuel production while reducing costs and fossil fuel needs. An alkaliphilic bacterium, Halanaerobium hydrogeniformans, is described that is capable of biohydrogen production at levels rivaling neutrophilic strains, but at pH 11 and hypersaline conditions. H. hydrogeniformans ferments a variety of 5- and 6-carbon sugars derived from hemicellulose and cellulose including cellobiose, and forms the end products hydrogen, acetate, and formate. Further, it can also produce biohydrogen from switchgrass and straw pretreated at temperatures far lower than any previously reported and in solutions compatible with growth. Hence, this bacterium can potentially increase the efficiency and efficacy of biohydrogen production from renewable biomass resources.

SO FRONTIERS IN MICROBIOLOGY

DT Article
DE nitrogen cycle; models; biological; geochemistry; mathematical modeling;

AB Trait-based microbial models show clear promise as tools to represent the diversity and activity of microorganisms across ecosystem gradients. These models parameterize specific traits that determine the relative fitness of an "organism" in a given environment, and represent the complexity of biological systems across temporal and spatial scales. In this study we introduce a microbial community trait-based modeling framework (MicroTrait) focused on nitrification (MicroTrait-N) that represents the ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) using traits related to enzyme kinetics and physiological properties. We used this model to predict nalfier diversity, ammonia (NH3) oxidation rates, and nitrous oxide (N20) production across pH, temperature, and substrate gradients. Predicted nitrifier diversity was predominantly determined by temperature and substrate availability, the latter was strongly influenced by pH. The model predicted that transient N20 production rates are maximized by a decoupiing of the AOB and NOB communities, resulting in an accumulation and detoxification of nitrite to N20 by AOB. However, cumulative N20 production (over 6 month simulations) is maximized in a system where the relationship between AOB and NOB is maintained. When the reactions uncouple, the AOB become unstable and biomass declines rapidly, resulting in decreased NH3 oxidation and N20 production. We evaluated this model against site level chemical datasets from the interior of Alaska and accurately simulated NH3 oxidation rates and the relative ratio of AOA:A0B biomass. The predicted community structure and activity indicate (a) parameterization of a small number of traits may be sufficient to broadly characterize nitrifying community structure and (b) changing decadal trends in climate and edaphic conditions could impact nitrification rates in ways that are not captured by extant biogeochemical models.

AB The Deepwater Horizon spill released over 4.1 million barrels of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico. In an effort to mitigate large oil slicks, the dispersant Corexit 9500 was sprayed onto surface slicks and injected directly at the wellhead at water depth of 1,500 m. Several research groups were involved in investigating the fate of the MC-252 oil using newly advanced molecular tools to elucidate microbial interactions with oil, gases, and dispersant. Microbial community analysis by different research groups revealed that hydrocarbon degrading bacteria belonging to Oceanospirillales, Colwellia, Cycloclasticus, Rhodobacterales, Pseudoalteromonas, and methylotrophs were found enriched in the contaminated water column. Presented here is a comprehensive overview of the ecogenomics of microbial degradation of MC-252 oil and gases in the water column and shorelines. We also present some insight into the fate of the dispersant Corexit 9500 that was added to aid in oil dispersion process. Our results show the dispersant was not toxic to the indigenous microbes at concentrations added, and different bacterial species isolated in the aftermath of the spill were able to degrade the various components of Corexit 9500 that included hydrocarbons, glycols, and dioctyl sulfosuccinate.

SO FRONTIERS IN MICROBIOLOGY

DT Review
DE physiological indicators; marine habitats; subsurface sediments
AB Analysis of the growth-limiting factor or environmental stressors affecting microbes in situ is of fundamental importance but analytically difficult. Microbes can reduce in situ limiting nutrient concentrations to sub-micromolar levels, and contaminated ecosystems may contain multiple stressors. The patterns of gene or protein expression by microbes in nature can be used to infer growth limitations, because they are regulated in response to environmental conditions. Experimental studies under controlled conditions in the laboratory provide the physiological underpinnings for developing these physiological indicators. Although regulatory networks may differ among specific microbes, there are some broad principles that can be applied, related to limiting nutrient acquisition, resource allocation, and stress responses. As technologies for transcriptomics and proteomics mature, the capacity to apply these approaches to complex microbial communities will accelerate. Global proteomics has the particular advantage that it reflects expressed catalytic activities. Furthermore, the high mass accuracy of some proteomic approaches allows mapping back to specific microbial strains. For example, at the Rifle IFRC field site in Western Colorado, the physiological status of Fe(III)-reducing populations has been tracked over time. Members of a "subsurface clade" within the Geobacter predominated during carbon amendment to the subsurface environment. At the functional level, proteomic identifications produced inferences regarding (i) temporal changes in anabolism and catabolism of acetate, (ii) the onset of N-2 fixation when N became limiting, and (iii) expression of phosphate transporters during periods of intense growth. The application of these approaches in situ can lead to discovery of novel physiological adaptations.

TI Microbial iron cycling in acidic geothermal springs of Yellowstone
National Park: integrating molecular surveys, geochennical processes,
and isolation of novel Fe-active microorganisms

DT Article
DE iron oxidation; iron reduction; ferric iron mat; geothermal archaea;

AB Geochemical, molecular, and physiological analyses of microbial isolates were combined to study the geomicrobiology of acidic iron oxide mats in Yellowstone National Park. Nineteen sampling locations from 11 geothermal springs were studied ranging in temperature from 53 to 88 C and pH 2.4 to 3.6. All iron oxide mats exhibited high diversity of crenarchaeal sequences from the Sulfolobales, Thermoproteales, and Desulfurococcales. The predominant Sulfolobales sequences were highly similar to Metallosphaera yellowstonensis str. MK1, previously isolated from one of these sites. Other groups of archaea were consistently associated with different types of iron oxide mats, including undescribed members of the phyla Thaumarchaeota and Euryarchaeota. Bacterial sequences were dominated by relatives of Hydrogenobaculum spp. above 65-70 degrees C, but increased in diversity below 60 C. Cultivation of relevant iron-oxidizing and iron-reducing microbial isolates included Sulfolobus str. MK3, Sulfobacillus str. MK2, Acidicaldus str. MK6, and a new candidate genus in the Sulfolobales referred to as Sulfolobales str. MK5. Strains MK3 and MK5 are capable of oxidizing ferrous iron autotrophically, while strain MK2 oxidizes iron mixotrophically. Similar rates of iron oxidation were measured for M. yellowstonensis str. MK1 and Sulfolobales str. MK5. Biomineralized phases of ferric iron varied among cultures and field sites, and included ferric oxyhydroxides, K-jarosite, goethite, hematite, and scorodite depending on geochemical conditions. Strains MK5 and MK6 are capable of reducing ferric iron under anaerobic conditions with complex carbon sources. The combination of geochemical and molecular data as well as physiological observations of isolates suggests that the community structure of acidic Fe mats is linked with Fe cycling across temperatures ranging from 53 to 88 degrees C.

TI Identification and characterization of MtoA: a decaheme c-type
cytochrome of the neutrophilic Fe(II)-oxidizing bacterium Sideroxydans
lithotrophicus ES-1
SO FRONTIERS IN MICROBIOLOGY
LA English
DT Article
DE Sideroxydans lithotrophicus ES-1; extracellular Fe(II) oxidation;
decaheme c-type cytochrome MtoA; pH-dependent; ligand complexation
AB The Gram-negative bacterium Sideroxydans lithotrophicus ES-1 (ES-1) grows on FeCO3 or FeS at oxic-anoxic interfaces at circumneutral pH, and the ES-1-mediated Fe(II) oxidation occurs extracellularly. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying ES-1's ability to oxidize Fe(II) remain unknown. Survey of the ES-1 genome for candidate genes for microbial extracellular Fe(II) oxidation revealed that it contained a three-gene cluster encoding homologs of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 (MR-1) MtrA, MtrB, and CymA that are involved in extracellular Fe(III) reduction. Homologs of MtrA and MtrB were also previously shown to be involved in extracellular Fe(II) oxidation by Rhodopseudomonas palustris TIE-1. To distinguish them from those found in MR-1, the identified homologs were named MtoAB and CymA(ES-1). Cloned mtoA partially complemented an MR-1 mutant without MtrA with regards to ferrihydrite reduction. Characterization of purified MtoA showed that it was a decaheme c-type cytochrome and oxidized soluble Fe(ll). Oxidation of Fe(II) by MtoA was pH- and Fe(II)-complexing ligand-dependent. Under conditions tested, MtoA oxidized Fe(II) from pH 7 to pH 9 with the optimal rate at pH 9. MtoA oxidized Fe(II) complexed with different ligands at different rates. The reaction rates followed the order Fe(II)Cl-2 > Fe(II) citrate > Fe(II) NTA > Fe(II) EDTA with the second-order rate constants ranging from 6.3 x 10(-3) mu M-1 s(-1) for oxidation of Fe(II)Cl-2 to 1.0 x 10(-3) mu M-1 s(-1) for oxidation of Fe(II) EDTA. Thermodynamic modeling showed that redox reaction rates for the different Fe(II)-complexes correlated with their respective estimated reaction-free energies. Collectively, these results demonstrate that MtoA is a functional Fe(II)-oxidizing protein that, by working in concert with MtoB and CymA(ES-1), may oxidize Fe(II) at the bacterial surface and transfer released electrons across the bacterial cell envelope to the quinone pool in the inner membrane during extracellular Fe(II) oxidation by ES-1.

TI The unique biogeochemical signature of the marine diazotroph
Trichodesmium
SO FRONTIERS IN MICROBIOLOGY
LA English
DT Article
DE extended redfield ratio; metallome; nitrogen fixation; vanadium; iron;
nickel; zinc
AB The elemental composition of phytoplankton can depart from canonical Redfield values under conditions of nutrient limitation or production (e.g., N fixation). Similarly, the trace metal metallome of phytoplankton may be expected to vary as a function of both ambient nutrient concentrations and the biochemical processes of the cell. Diazotrophs such as the colonial cyanobacteria Trichodesmium are likely to have unique metal signatures due to their cell physiology. We present metal (Fe, V, Zn, Ni, Mo, Mn, Cu, Cd) quotas for Trichodesmium collected from the Sargasso Sea which highlight the unique metallome of this organism. The element concentrations of bulk colonies and trichomes sections were analyzed by ICP-MS and synchrotron x-ray fluorescence, respectively. The cells were characterized by low P contents but enrichment in V, Fe, Mo, Ni, and Zn in comparison to other phytoplankton. Vanadium was the most abundant metal in Trichodesmium, and the V quota was up to fourfold higher than the corresponding Fe quota. The stoichiometry of 600C:101N:1P (mol mo1(-1)) reflects P-limiting conditions. Iron and V were enriched in contiguous cells of 10 and 50% of Trichodesmium trichomes, respectively. The distribution of Ni differed from other elements, with the highest concentration in the transverse walls between attached cells. We hypothesize that the enrichments of V, Fe, Mo, and Ni are linked to the biochemical requirements for N fixation either directly through enrichment in the N-fixing enzyme nitrogenase or indirectly by the expression of enzymes responsible for the removal of reactive oxygen species. Unintentional uptake of V via P pathways may also be occurring. Overall, the cellular content of trace metals and macronutrients differs significantly from the (extended) Redfield ratio. The Trichodesmium metallome is an example of how physiology and environmental conditions can cause significant deviations from the idealized stoichiometry.

TI Light quantity affects the regulation of cell shape in Fremyella
diplosiphon
SO FRONTIERS IN MICROBIOLOGY
LA English
DT Article
DE complementary chromatic adaptation; cyanobacteria; light intensity;
light quality; motphology; photobiology
AB In some cyanobacteria, the color or prevalent wavelengths of ambient light can impact the protein or pigment composition of the light-harvesting complexes. In some cases, light color or quality impacts cellular morphology. The significance of changes in pigmentation is associated strongly with optimizing light absorption for photosynthesis, whereas the significance of changes in light quality-dependent cellular morphology is less well understood. In natural aquatic environments, light quality and intensity change simultaneously at varying depths of the water column. Thus, we hypothesize that changes in morphology that also have been attributed to differences in the prevalent wavelengths of available light may largely be associated with changes in light intensity. Fremyella diplosiphon shows highly reproducible light-dependent changes in pigmentation and morphology. Under red light (RL), F diplosiphon cells are blue-green in color, due to the accumulation of high levels of phycocyanin, a RL-absorbing pigment in the light-harvesting complexes or phycobilisomes (PBSs), and the shape of cells are short and rounded. Conversely, under green light (GL), F diplosiphon cells are red in color due to accumulation of GL-absorbing phycoerythrin in PBSs, and are longer and brick-shaped. GL is enriched at lower depths in the water column, where overall levels of light also are reduced, i.e., to 10% or less of the intensity found at the water surface. We hypothesize that longer cells under low light intensities at increasing depths in the water column, which are generally also enriched in green wavelengths, are associated with greater levels of total photosynthetic pigments in the thylakoid membranes. To test this hypothesis, we grew F diplosiphon under increasing intensities of GL and observed whether the length of cells diminished due to reduced pressure to maintain larger cells and the associated increased photosynthetic membrane capacity under high light intensity, independent of whether it is light of green wavelengths.

TI Molecular underpinnings of Fe(III) oxide reduction by Shewanella
oneidensis MR-1
SO FRONTIERS IN MICROBIOLOGY
LA English
DT Review
DE dissimilatory Fe(III) oxide reduction; Shewanella oneidensis MR-1;
extracellular electron transfer pathway; c-type cytochromes with
multiple hemes; molecular biology
AB In the absence of O-2 and other electron acceptors, the Gram-negative bacterium Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 can use ferric [Fe(III)] (oxy)(hydr)oxide minerals as the terminal electron acceptors for anaerobic respiration. At circumneutral pH and in the absence of strong complexing ligands, Fe(III) oxides are relatively insoluble and thus are external to the bacterial cells. S. oneidensis MR-1 and related strains of metal-reducing Shewanella have evolved machinery (i.e., metal-reducing or Mtr pathway) for transferring electrons from the inner-membrane, through the periplasm and across the outer-membrane to the surface of extracellular Fe(III) oxides. The protein components identified to date for the Mtr pathway include CymA, MtrA, MtrB, MtrC, and OmcA. CymA is an inner-membrane tetraheme c-type cytochrome (c-Cyt) that belongs to the NapC/NrfH family of quinol dehydrogenases. It is proposed that CymA oxidizes the quinol in the inner-membrane and transfers the released electrons to MtrA either directly or indirectly through other periplasmic proteins. A decaheme c-Cyt, MtrA is thought to be embedded in the trans outer-membrane and porin-like protein MtrB. Together, MtrAB deliver the electrons through the outer-membrane to the MtrC and OmcA on the outmost bacterial surface. MtrC and OmcA are the outer-membrane decaheme c-Cyts that are translocated across the outer-membrane by the bacterial type II secretion system. Functioning as terminal reductases, MtrC and OmcA can bind the surface of Fe(III) oxides and transfer electrons directly to these minerals via their solvent-exposed hemes. To increase their reaction rates, MtrC and OmcA can use the flavins secreted by S. oneidensis MR-1 cells as diffusible co-factors for reduction of Fe(III) oxides. Because of their extracellular location and broad redox potentials, MtrC and OmcA can also serve as the terminal reductases for soluble forms of Fe(III). In addition to Fe(III) oxides, Mtr pathway is also involved in reduction of manganese oxides and other metals. Although our understanding of the Mtr pathway is still far from complete, it is the best characterized microbial pathway used for extracellular electron exchange. Characterizations of the Mtr pathway have made significant contributions to the molecular understanding of microbial reduction of Fe(III) oxides.

Thermosinus carboxydivorans; Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans; carbon

AB Carbon monoxide (CO) is commonly known as a toxic gas, yet both cultivation studies and emerging genome sequences of bacteria and archaea establish that CO is a widely utilized microbial growth substrate. In this study, we determined the prevalence of anaerobic carbon monoxide dehydrogenases ([Ni,Fe]-CODHs) in currently available genomic sequence databases. Currently, 185 out of 2887, or 6% of sequenced bacterial and archaeal genomes possess at least one gene encoding [Ni,Fe]-CODH, the key enzyme for anaerobic CO utilization. Many genomes encode multiple copies of [Ni,Fe]-CODH genes whose functions and regulation are correlated with their associated gene clusters. The phylogenetic analysis of this extended protein family revealed six distinct clades; many clades consisted of [Ni,Fe]-CODHs that were encoded by microbes from disparate phylogenetic lineages, based on 16S rRNA sequences, and widely ranging physiology. To more clearly define if the branching patterns observed in the [Ni,Fe]-CODH trees are due to functional conservation vs. evolutionary lineage, the genomic context of the [Ni,Fe]-CODH gene clusters was examined, and superimposed on the phylogenetic trees. On the whole, there was a correlation between genomic contexts and the tree topology, but several functionally similar [Ni,Fe]-CODHs were found in different clades. In addition, some distantly related organisms have similar [Ni,Fe]-CODH genes. Thermosinus carboxydivorans was used to observe horizontal gene transfer (HGT) of [Ni,Fe]-CODH gene clusters by applying Kullback-Leibler divergence analysis methods. Divergent tetranucleotide frequency and codon usage showed that the gene cluster of T carboxydivorans that encodes a [Ni,Fe]-CODH and an energy-converting hydrogenase is dissimilar to its whole genome but is similar to the genome of the phylogenetically distant Firmicute, Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans.

TI Response of biological soil crust diazotrophs to season, altered summer

of the Colorado Plateau, USA
SO FRONTIERS IN MICROBIOLOGY

DT Article
DE biological soil crust; nifH; cyanobacteria; climate change; semi-arid;

AB Biological soil crusts (biocrusts), which supply significant amounts of fixed nitrogen into terrestrial ecosystems worldwide (-33Tg y-1), are likely to respond to changes in temperature and precipitation associated with climate change. Using nifH gene-based surveys, we explored variation in the diazotrophic community of biocrusts of the Colorado Plateau, USA in response to season (autumn vs. spring), as well as field manipulations that increased the frequency of small volume precipitation events and year-round soil temperature. Abundance of nifH genes in biocrusts ranged from 3 x 106 to 1 x 108 g-1 soil, and nifH from heterocystous cyanobacteria closely related to Scytonema hyalinum, Spirirestis rafaelensis, and Nostoc commune comprised >98% of the total. Although there was no apparent seasonal effect on total nifH gene abundance in the biocrusts, T-RFLP analysis revealed a strong seasonal pattern in nifH composition. Spirirestis nifH abundance was estimated to oscillate 1 to >2 orders of magnitude between autumn (low) and spring (high). A yearround increase of soil temperature (2-3 C) had little effect on the diazotroph community structure over 2 years. Altered summer precipitation had little impact on diazotroph community structure over the first 1.5 years of the study, when natural background patterns across years and seasons superseded any treatment effects. However, after the second summer of treatments, nifH abundance was 2.6-fold lower in biocrusts receiving altered precipitation. Heterocystous cyanobacteria were apparently more resilient to altered precipitation than other cyanobacteria. The results demonstrate that diazotrophic community composition of biocrusts in this semi-arid grassland undergoes strong seasonal shifts and that the abundance of its dominant members decreased in response to more frequent, small volume precipitation events.

AB Cigarette smoking continues to be a major public health problem, and while smoking rates in men have shown some decrease over the last few decades, smoking rates among girls and young women are increasing. Practically all of the important aspects of cigarette smoking and many effects of nicotine are sexually dimorphic (reviewed by Pogun and Yararbas, 2009). Women become addicted more easily than men, while finding it harder to quit. Nicotine replacement appears to be less effective in women. This may be linked to the observation that women are more sensitive than men to non-nicotine cues or ingredients in cigarettes. The reasons for these sex differences are mostly unknown. Several lines of evidence suggest that many of the reported sex differences related to cigarette smoking may stem from the inhibitory effects of nicotine and other tobacco alkaloids on estrogen synthesis via the enzyme aromatase (cyp19a gene product). Aromatase is the last enzyme in estrogen biosynthesis, catalyzing the conversion of androgens to estrogens. This review provides a summary of experimental evidence supporting brain aromatase as a potential mediator and/or modulator of nicotine actions in the brain, contributing to sex differences in smoking behavior. Additional research on the interaction between tobacco smoke, nicotine, and aromatase may help devise new, sex specific methods for prevention and treatment of smoking addiction.

AB High-throughput data are a double-edged sword; for the benefit of large amount of data, there is an associated cost of noise. To increase reliability and scalability of high-throughput protein interaction data generation, we tested the efficacy of classification to enrich potential protein protein interactions. We applied this method to identify interactions among Arabidopsis membrane proteins enriched in transporters. We validated our method with multiple retests. Classification improved the quality of the ensuing interaction network and was effective in reducing the search space and increasing true positive rate. The final network of 541 interactions among 239 proteins (of which 179 are transporters) is the first protein interaction network enriched in membrane transporters reported for any organism. This network has similar topological attributes to other published protein interaction networks. It also extends and fills gaps in currently available biological networks in plants and allows building a number of hypotheses about processes and mechanisms involving signal-transduction and transport systems.

classification
SO FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE

DT Review
DE plant functional traits; low resource tolerance; resource stress; shade;
drought; nutrients
AB Throughout the evolutionary history of plants, drought, shade, and scarcity of nutrients have structured ecosystems and communities globally. Humans have begun to drastically alter the prevalence of these environmental factors with untold consequences for plant communities and ecosystems worldwide. Given limitations in using organ-level traits to predict ecological performance of species, recent advances using tolerances of low resource availability as plant functional traits are revealing the often hidden roles these factors have in structuring communities and are becoming central to classifying plants ecologically. For example, measuring the physiological drought tolerance of plants has increased the predictability of differences among species in their ability to survive drought as well as the distribution of species within and among ecosystems. Quantifying the shade tolerance of species has improved our understanding of local and regional species diversity and how species have sorted within and among regions. As the stresses on ecosystems continue to shift, coordinated studies of whole-plant growth centered on tolerance of low resource availability will be central in predicting future ecosystem functioning and biodiversity. This will require efforts that quantify tolerances for large numbers of species and develop bioinformatic and other techniques for comparing large number of species.

TI Evidence for a contribution of ALA synthesis to plastid-to-nucleus
signaling
SO FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE
LA English
DT Article
DE ALA synthesis; retrograde signaling; gabaculine; gun mutants; microarray
analysis
AB The formation of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) in tetrapyrrole biosynthesis is widely controlled by environmental and metabolic feedback cues that determine the influx into the entire metabolic path. Because of its central role as the rate-limiting step, we hypothesized a potential role of ALA biosynthesis in tetrapyrrole-mediated retrograde signaling and exploited the direct impact of ALA biosynthesis on nuclear gene expression (NGE) by using two different approaches. Firstly, the Arabidopsis gun 1, hy1 (gun2), hy2 (gun3), gun4 mutants showing uncoupled NGE from the physiological state of chloroplasts were thoroughly examined for regulatory modifications of ALA synthesis and transcriptional control in the nucleus. We found that reduced ALA-synthesizing capacity is common to analyzed gun mutants. Inhibition of ALA synthesis by gabaculine (GAB) that inactivates glutamate-1-semialdehyde aminotransferase and ALA feeding of wild-type and mutant seedlings corroborate the expression data of gun mutants. Transcript level of photosynthetic marker genes were enhanced in norflurazon (NF)-treated seedlings upon additional GAB treatment, while enhanced ALA amounts diminish these RNA levels in NF-treated wild-type in comparison to the solely NF-treated seedlings. Secondly, the impact of posttranslationally down-regulated ALA synthesis on NGE was investigated by global transcriptome analysis of GAB-treated Arabidopsis seedlings and the gun4-1 mutant, which is also characterized by reduced ALA formation. A common set of significantly modulated genes was identified indicating ALA synthesis as a potential signal emitter. The over-represented gene ontology categories of genes with decreased or increased transcript abundance highlight a few biological processes and cellular functions, which are remarkably affected in response to plastid-localized ALA biosynthesis. These results support the hypothesis that ALA biosynthesis correlates with retrograde signaling-mediated control of NGE.

DE Selaginella; Physcomitrella; ammonium; urea; transporter; uptake
AB Ammonium and urea are important nitrogen sources for autotrophic organisms. Plant genomes encode several families of specific transporters for these molecules, plus other uptake mechanisms such as aquaporins and ABC transporters. Selaginella and Physcomitrella are representatives of lycophytes and bryophytes, respectively, and the recent completion of their genome sequences provided us with an opportunity for comparative genome studies, with special emphasis on the adaptive processes that accompanied the conquest of dry land and the evolution of a vascular system. Our phylogenetic analysis revealed that the number of genes encoding urea transporters underwent a progressive reduction during evolution, eventually down to a single copy in vascular plants. Conversely, no clear evolutionary pattern was found for ammonium transporters, and their number and distribution in families varies between species. In particular Selaginella, similar to rice, favors the AMT2/MEP family of ammonium transporters over the plant-specific AMT1 type. In comparison, Physcomitrella presents several members belonging to both families.

DT Review
DE cell walls; DUF23; DUF246; DUF266; glycosyltransferases
AB The carbohydrate active enzyme (CAZy) database is an invaluable resource for glycobiology and currently contains 45 glycosyltransferase families that are represented in plants. Glycosyltransferases (GTs) have many functions in plants, but the majority are likely to be involved in biosynthesis of polysaccharides and glycoproteins in the plant cell wall. Bioinformatic approaches and structural modeling suggest that a number of protein families in plants include GTs that have not yet been identified as such and are therefore not included in CAZy. These families include proteins with domain of unknown function (DUE) DUF23, DUF246, and DUF266. The evidence for these proteins being GTs and their possible roles in cell wall biosynthesis is discussed.

AB Secretory organelles are engaged in a continuous flux of membranes, which is believed to occur mostly via transport vesicles. Being critical in maintaining several cellular functions, transport vesicles are membrane-enclosed sacs that temporarily store and then deliver membrane lipids, protein, and polysaccharides. SNAREs have a crucial role in vesicle traffic by driving membrane fusion and conferring fidelity through the formation of specific SNARE complexes. Additionally, specific roles of SNAREs in growth and development implicate that they are versatile components for the life of a plant. Here, we summarize the recent progress on the understanding of the role of SNAREs and highlight some of the questions that are still unsolved.

DE CELLULOSE SYNTHASE-LIKE; mannan; xyloglucan; CSLA; CSLC; plant cell wall
AB The CELLULOSE SYNTHASE (CESA) superfamily of proteins contains several sub-families of closely related CELLULOSE SYNTHASE-LIKE (CSL) sequences. Among these, the CSLA and CSLC families are closely related to each other and are the most evolutionarily divergent from the CESA family. Significant progress has been made with the functional characterization of CSLA and CSLC genes, which have been shown to encode enzymes with 1,4-beta-glycan synthase activities involved in the biosynthesis of mannan and possibly xyloglucan backbones, respectively. This review examines recent work on the CSLA and CSLC families from evolutionary, molecular, and biochemical perspectives. We pose a series of questions, whose answers likely will provide further insight about the specific functions of members of the CSLA and CSLC families and about plant polysaccharide biosynthesis is general.

TI The secreted plant N-glycoproteome and associated secretory pathways
SO FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE
LA English
DT Review
DE glycoprotein; glycoproteome; secretory pathway; N-glycan; protein
sorting
AB N-Glycosylation is a common form of eukaryotic protein post-translational modification, and one that is particularly prevalent in plant cell wall proteins. Large scale and detailed characterization of N-glycoproteins therefore has considerable potential in better understanding the composition and functions of the cell wall proteome, as well as those proteins that reside in other compartments of the secretory pathway. While there have been numerous studies of mammalian and yeast N-glycoproteins, less is known about the population complexity, biosynthesis, structural variation, and trafficking of their plant counterparts. However, technical developments in the analysis of glycoproteins and the structures the glycans that they bear, as well as valuable comparative analyses with non-plant systems, are providing new insights into features that are common among eukaryotes and those that are specific to plants, some of which may reflect the unique nature of the plant cell wall. In this review we present an overview of the current knowledge of plant N-glycoprotein synthesis and trafficking, with particular reference to those that are cell wall localized.

TI Freeze/thaw-induced embolism: probability of critical bubble formation
depends on speed of ice formation
SO FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE
LA English
DT Article
DE air seeding; cavitation; gas segregation; nucleation; xylem
AB Bubble formation in the conduits of woody plants sets a challenge for uninterrupted water transportation from the soil up to the canopy. Freezing and thawing of stems has been shown to increase the number of air-filled (embolized) conduits, especially in trees with large conduit diameters. Despite numerous experimental studies, the mechanisms leading to bubble formation during freezing have not been addressed theoretically. We used classical nucleation theory and fluid mechanics to show which mechanisms are most likely to be responsible for bubble formation during freezing and what parameters determine the likelihood of the process. Our results confirm the common assumption that bubble formation during freezing is most likely due to gas segregation by ice. If xylem conduit walls are not permeable to the salts expelled by ice during the freezing process, osmotic pressures high enough for air seeding could be created. The build-up rate of segregated solutes in front of the ice-water interface depends equally on conduit diameter and freezing velocity. Therefore, bubble formation probability depends on these variables. The dependence of bubble formation probability on freezing velocity means that the experimental results obtained for cavitation threshold conduit diameters during freeze/thaw cycles depend on the experimental setup; namely sample size and cooling rate. The velocity dependence also suggests that to avoid bubble formation during freezing trees should have narrow conduits where freezing is likely to be fast (e.g., branches or outermost layer of the xylem). Avoidance of bubble formation during freezing could thus be one piece of the explanation why xylem conduit size of temperate and boreal zone trees varies quite systematically.

TI Amino acid transporter inventory of the Selaginella genome
SO FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE
LA English
DT Article
DE Selaginella; amino acid; transporter
AB Amino acids play fundamental roles in a multitude of functions including protein synthesis, hormone metabolism, nerve transmission, cell growth, production of metabolic energy, nucleobase synthesis, nitrogen metabolism, and urea biosynthesis. Selaginella as a member of the lycophytes is part of an ancient lineage of vascular plants that had arisen similar to 400 million years ago. In angiosperms, which have attracted most of the attention for nutrient transport so far, we have been able to identify many of the key transporters for nitrogen. Their role is not always fully clear, thus an analysis of Selaginella as a representative of an ancient vascular plant may help shed light on the evolution and function of these diverse transporters. Here we annotated and analyzed the genes encoding putative transporters involved in cellular uptake of amino acids present in the Selaginella genome.

Recent results on the cost, durability, and performance of fuel cells are discussed, along with the status of hydrogen-related technologies and cross-cutting activities. DOE has deployed fuel cells in key early markets, including backup power and forklifts. Recent analyses show that fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) are among the most promising options to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and petroleum use. Preliminary analysis also indicates that the total cost of ownership of FCEVs will be comparable to other advanced vehicle and fuel options. (C) 2012 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Emerging semiconductor switches based on the wide-bandgap semiconductor GaN have the potential to significantly improve the efficiency of portable power applications such as transportable energy storage. Such applications are likely to become more widespread as renewables such as wind and solar continue to come on-line. However, the long-term reliability of GaN-based power devices is relatively unexplored. In this paper, we describe joint work between Sandia National Laboratories and MIT on high-voltage AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors. It is observed that the nature of current collapse is a strong function of bias conditions as well as device design, where factors such as Al composition in the barrier layer and surface passivation play a large role. Thermal and optical recovery experiments are performed to ascertain the nature of charge trapping in the device. Additionally, Kelvin-force microscopy measurements are used to evaluate the surface potential within the device.

AB We are entering a new era in genomics-that of large-scale, place-based, highly contextualized genomic research. Here we review this emerging paradigm shift and suggest that sites of utmost scientific importance be expanded into 'Genomic Observatories' (GOs). Investment in GOs should focus on the digital characterization of whole ecosystems, from all-taxa biotic inventories to time-series 'omics studies. The foundational layer of biodiversity-genetic variation-would thus be mainstreamed into Earth Observation systems enabling predictive modelling of biodiversity dynamics and resultant impacts on ecosystem services.

stop worrying and love the ome-ome
SO GIGASCIENCE

DT Article
DE Microbial ecology; Comparative genomics; Metagenomics; QIIME; MG-RAST;
VAMPS; BIOM
AB Background: We present the Biological Observation Matrix (BIOM, pronounced "biome") format: a JSON-based file format for representing arbitrary observation by sample contingency tables with associated sample and observation metadata. As the number of categories of comparative omics data types (collectively, the "ome-ome") grows rapidly, a general format to represent and archive this data will facilitate the interoperability of existing bioinformatics tools and future meta-analyses.
Findings: The BIOM file format is supported by an independent open-source software project (the biom-format project), which initially contains Python objects that support the use and manipulation of BIOM data in Python programs, and is intended to be an open development effort where developers can submit implementations of these objects in other programming languages.
Conclusions: The BIOM file format and the biom-format project are steps toward reducing the "bioinformatics bottleneck" that is currently being experienced in diverse areas of biological sciences, and will help us move toward the next phase of comparative omics where basic science is translated into clinical and environmental applications. The BIOM file format is currently recognized as an Earth Microbiome Project Standard, and as a Candidate Standard by the Genomic Standards Consortium.

AB Rock cutting is at the core of all construction on rocks or into rocks. The cutting action, by its nature, is defined by causing failure in a rock so that part of the rock can be removed. From a mechanical point of view, the problem is a difficult one. A numerical solution is often the only credible approach. In this study, we employed both the finite element method and the discrete element method for modeling rock cutting. Our immediate goals were to develop a framework within the two methods so that a laboratory rock scratch test could be well modeled. The reasons for the focus were twofold: first, a scratch test possessed all essential characteristics of a general rock cutting problem; second, there were test data available for validation. We used LS-DYNA for the finite element analysis, PFC2D and PFC3D for the discrete element analysis. Model setup and problems analyzed with each method are presented first, followed by a general discussion.

AB DInSAR (differential interferometric synthetic aperture radar) is a promising technology for measuring, in remarkable detail, spatial surface deformations due to pressurization of reservoirs during CO2 injection. We performed coupled fluid-flow and geomechanical simulations for an example corresponding to the geometry and conditions at the In Salah CO2 storage project, Algeria. The time evolution of surface displacement detected by DInSAR was quantitatively well reproduced by the simulation. A sensitivity study suggests that information on the CO2 front is indirectly transferred to the surface displacement, and thus, even if the CO2 flow were highly localized due to reservoir heterogeneity such as faulting, surface deformation does not sharply reflect the flow patterns, but are smoothened. Temporal and spatial changes in surface deformation interpreted from DInSAR potentially provide a unique opportunity for calibrating the spatial permeabilities (e.g. low-permeability barriers) of reservoir models.

AB Coupled processes in porous media impact drilling and borehole stability. The coupling of the matrix deformation, and fluid and heat diffusions results in a time dependent response in the formation. A general theory of thermoporoelasticity is developed that fully couples the three processes: mechanical, hydraulic, and thermal in porous media saturated by a compressible and thermally expansible fluid. A finite element model is developed for the fully coupled processes consisting of: thermoporoelastic deformation, hydraulic conduction, thermal osmosis, heat conduction, pressure thermal effect, and the interconvertibility of mechanical and thermal energy. The model is used to analyze the problem of a wellbore subjected to a hydrostatic in situ stress field. The results indicate that heating induces an increase in the pore pressure, while cooling induces a decrease in the pore pressure. The total radial and tangential stresses are more compressive in the case of heating and less compressive in the case of cooling relative to the isothermal case. It is also shown that the lower the permeability/fluid viscosity ratio, the larger the thermal loading effect on the pore pressure changes and that full coupling is important for modeling tight formations.

AB Rock mechanics plays an important role in the performance assessment of geologic carbon dioxide (CO2) sequestration, including assessment of caprock sealing performance, ground-surface deformations, potential fault reactivation, and induced seismicity. As a practical example, recent results are reviewed from studies of the geomechanical aspects and modeling associated with CO2 injection at the In Salah CO2 storage project, around the Krechba gas field, Algeria. The site is an ideal test bed for geomechanical studies: the CO2 injection pressure is sufficiently high to cause measurable ground-surface deformations, and the targeted injection zone consists of fractured sandstone intersected by minor faults. At Krechba, satellite-based interferometry (InSAR) is used to monitor ground-surface deformations with remarkable precision (a few millimeters), because of favorable ground-surface conditions, including hard desert sediments and bare rock. Inverse semi-analytical strain analysis as well as coupled fluid flow and geomechanical numerical modeling are being employed to interpret observed ground-surface deformations in terms of underground fluid movements and structures, such as faults and fracture zones. Significant modeling effort is currently being dedicated to analyze ground-surface uplift at one of the injection wells, where a double-lobe uplift pattern indicates opening of a deep fault or fracture zone-a feature that has also been detected in a recent 3D seismic survey. Finally, coupled fluid flow and geomechanical modeling has been applied to estimate the potential for injection-induced microseismicity. For the best-estimated present-day strike-slip stress regime at Krechba, the current analysis indicates a relatively low potential for injection-induced microseismicity. The geomechanical models are being updated and recalibrated as new field data becomes available, and the long-term geomechanical responses will be assessed.

URL studies range from underground injection assessment, search for origins of life, heterogeneity and fracture network characterizations, coupled process testing, quantification of induced deformation and seismicity potential, to coupling of underground signals to atmospheric and ionospheric processes. Common and new approaches can be developed through exchanges to address fundamental challenges and practical aspects of organization, procedure, and incentive needed to formulate and develop URL networks and innovations.

AB This tutorial provides a synopsis of key findings and theoretical advances from cognitive science and socio-cognitive theory, with examples of how the results of this research can be applied to the design of human-robotic systems. Topics covered will run the gamut from basic cognitive science (e.g., perception, attention, learning and memory, information processing, multi-tasking, conscious awareness, individual differences) to socio-cognitive issues (e.g., theories of social interaction, dynamic functional allocation, mixed-initiative interaction, human-agent-robot teamwork, coactive design, theory of organizations). Additionally, the tutorial will address new technologies that attempt to leverage the current state of theory (e.g., neuroergonomics, brain-machine interfaces, detection of cognitive states, robotic prostheses and orthotics, cognitive and sensory prostheses). Throughout the tutorial, the presenters will give descriptions and demonstrations of working systems that exemplify the principles being taught. Separately, the presenters have given highly-successful tutorials on relevant subjects at workshops and conferences such as CHI and HCI International, as well as in a variety of industrial and government settings. In this tutorial, they propose to bring together their experience to bear on issues of specific interest to the HRI community.

AB Hollow core photonic crystal fiber (HCPCF) employs a guiding mechanism fundamentally different from that in conventional index guiding fibers. In an HCPCF, periodic air channels in a glass matrix act as reflectors to confine light in an empty core. As a result, the interaction between light and glass can be very small. Therefore, HCPCF has been used in applications that require extremely low non-linearity, high breakdown threshold, and zero dispersion. However, their applications in optical sensing, especially in chemical and biological sensing, have only been extensively explored recently. Besides their well-recognized optical properties the hollow cores of the fibers can be easily filled with liquid or gas, providing an ideal sampling mechanism in sensors. Recently, we have demonstrated that by filling up a HCPCF with gas or liquid samples, it is possible to significantly increase the sensitivity of the sensors in either regular Raman or surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) applications. This is because the confinement of both light and sample inside the hollow core enables direct interaction between the propagating wave and the analyte. In this paper, we report our recent work on using HCPCF as a platform for Raman or SERS in the detection of low concentration greenhouse gas (ambient CO2), biomedically significant molecules (e. g., glucose), and bacteria. We have demonstrated that by filling up a HCPCF with gas or liquid samples, it is possible to significantly increase the sensitivity of the sensors in either regular Raman or SERS applications.

AB This paper describes preliminary results from in situ electrochemical atomic force microscopy (EC AFM) and in situ electrochemical small angle x-ray scattering (EC USAXS) studies. Experiments are designed to quantify the morphological evolution during charge and discharge cycles. From the AFM data we measure feature shapes, nucleation density, island distributions and quantify surface roughness using height-height correlation functions. The USAXS scattering data is modeled as a distribution of islands. The goal of our project is to link early time nucleation events with the onset of large-scale instabilities such as dendrites.

AB Materials that undergo a lithium conversion reaction often accommodate more than one Li per transition metal, and are promising candidates for high-capacity electrodes for lithium batteries. However, little is known about the mechanisms involved in the conversion process, the origins of the large polarization during electrochemical cycling, and why some materials are reversible (e. g., FeF2) while others are not (e. g., CuF2). We investigated the conversion reaction of metal fluorides, FeF2 and CuF2, to better understand the mechanisms underlying their contrasting electrochemical behavior. Lithium conversion of FeF2 results in the formation of an interconnected network of small iron nanoparticles (< 5nm), which may provide a pathway for electron transport and a high interfacial area between the Fe and LiF phases. Conversely, lithium conversion of CuF2 results in the formation of large isolated Cu particles, which may partially explain the poor reversibility in the CuF2 system.

AB A novel experimental technique was developed to investigate HF formation in organic carbonate based electrolytes containing LiPF6. Using spectroscopic ellipsometry, aging and thermal decomposition of the electrolyte were monitored in a standard glass cell and in a polypropylene vessel. The amount of HF generated was determined by following the etching rate of a thin silicon dioxide layer on a silicon wafer in contact with the electrolyte. The material of cell construction clearly influenced the etching rate of the SiO2 sensor and affected the rate of degradation.

AB Surface phenomena define and control the performance of Li-based battery systems hence direct chemical analysis of electrode/electrolyte interfaces can provide critical information for battery scientists and engineers. Recently introduced femtosecond laser induced breakdown spectroscopy has been employed in this work to probe ex situ compositional variations within the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer. Nanoscale depth-profiling was achieved for atomic and molecular species formed on graphite upon reduction in standard, carbonate-based Li-ion electrolyte. We demonstrate unique capabilities of this laser-based technique that allow for straightforward chemical analysis of interphases in air sensitive samples.

DE transmedia; cross-media; serious games; campaigns; storytelling
AB Serious games present a relatively new approach to training and education for Defense and Homeland Security. Although serious games are often deployed as stand-alone solutions, they can also serve as entry points into training content that is delivered via different media. The present paper explores the application of transmedia storytelling used by entertainment, advertising, and the commercial game industries to sustain audience engagement with memorable experiences. Transmedia storytelling is the art and science of designing a consistent message that is delivered and reinforced across multiple media utilizing diverse entry points into a narrative to generate audience involvement with content. This approach is consistent with the goals of the Army Learning Model 2015 to deliver training and education to Soldiers across multiple media. Transmedia storytelling also provides a practical framework for developing media-rich training. In the present paper, we introduce the notion of transmedia storytelling, also known as transmedia or cross-media, as related to the use of serious games for training and education. We discuss why the human brain is wired for transmedia storytelling and demonstrate how the Simulation Experience Design Method can be used to create transmedia story worlds and serious games. Examples of how the U.S. Army has utilized transmedia for strategic communication and game-based training are provided. Finally, we conclude with strategies the reader can use today to incorporate transmedia storytelling elements such as Internet, TV, radio, print, social media, graphic novels, machinima, blogs, and alternate reality gaming into defense and homeland security serious game training.

AB Techniques from scientific data mining are increasingly being used to analyze and understand data from scientific observations, simulations, and experiments. These methods provide scientists the opportunity to automate the tedious manual processing of the data, control complex systems, and gain insights into the phenomenon being modeled or observed. This process of data-driven scientific inference borrows ideas and solutions from a range of fields including machine learning, image and video processing, statistics, high-performance computing, and pattern recognition. The tasks involved in these analyses include the extraction of structures from the data, the identification of representative features for these structures, dimension reduction, and building predictive and descriptive models. At first glance, data mining and data-driven analysis may appear unrelated to stochastic modeling and uncertainty quantification. But, as we show in this paper, there are commonalities in the problems addressed and techniques used, providing the two communities the opportunity to benefit from the expertise and experiences of each other.

AB Performance assessment of complex systems is ideally accomplished through system-level testing, but because they are expensive, such tests are seldom performed. On the other hand, for economic reasons, data from tests on individual components that are parts of complex systems are more readily available. The lack of system-level data leads to a need to build computational models of systems and use them for performance prediction in lieu of experiments. Because their complexity, models are sometimes built in a hierarchical manner, starting with simple components, progressing to collections of components, and finally, to the full system. Quantification of uncertainty in the predicted response of a system model is required in order to establish confidence in the representation of actual system behavior. This paper proposes a framework for the complex, but very practical problem of quantification of uncertainty in system-level model predictions. It is based on Bayes networks and uses the available data at multiple levels of complexity (i.e., components, subsystem, etc.). Because epistemic sources of uncertainty were shown to be secondary, in this application, aleatoric only uncertainty is included in the present uncertainty quantification. An example showing application of the techniques to uncertainty quantification of measures of response of a real, complex aerospace system is included.

Solutions of the three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) procedure are obtained using the Wilcox k - omega equations. The DES results are obtained using the model presented by Bush and Mani and are compared with RANS solutions and experimental data from NASA's 2004 Computational Fluid Dynamics Validation on Synthetic Jets and Turbulent Separation Control Workshop. The DES procedure exhibited a three-dimensional flow structure in the wake, with a 13.65% shorter mean separation region compared to RANS and a mean reattachment length that is in good agreement with experimental measurements. DES predictions of the pressure coefficient in the separation region also exhibit good agreement with experiment and are more accurate than RANS predictions.

Such a development would significantly decrease natural gas exports from Russia, the Caspian and the Middle East compared to a future without world-wide shale gas development. This paper provides estimates of how shale gas development could affect energy markets. These estimates employ a detailed assessment of world-wide shale gas resources and the costs to produce gas from them.

AB Transport accounts for 27 percent of total global energy use, 26 percent of global energy-related CO2 emissions, and obtains 95 percent of its energy from petroleum (IEA, 2010, p. 255). Carbon dioxide from the combustion of petroleum comprises approximately 95 percent of transport's GHG emissions. The sector's share of global primary oil consumption is expected to rise from slightly more than 50% today to 60 percent by 2035, with an approximate doubling of energy use. Transportation activity is inextricably linked to energy use because the nature of transportation is physical work-the application of force over a distance-and energy is the ability to do work. On the other hand, energy is used inefficiently to move people and commodities. For example, the overall energy efficiency of passenger transportation by motor vehicles in the United States today is only about 1 percent. Despite this, transportation is widely regarded as the most difficult and most costly sector for GHG mitigation and for substitution of alternative sources of energy. It is shown that given appropriate public policies to overcome the deficiencies of transportation markets and plausible technological progress, it should be possible to hold global transport energy use to approximately today's level through 2050.

Design specification rules; Combinatorial library; DNA assembly
AB Background: Biological Computer Aided Design (bioCAD) assists the de novo design and selection of existing genetic components to achieve a desired biological activity, as part of an integrated design-build-test cycle. To meet the emerging needs of Synthetic Biology, bioCAD tools must address the increasing prevalence of combinatorial library design, design rule specification, and scar-less multi-part DNA assembly.
Results: We report the development and deployment of web-based bioCAD software, DeviceEditor, which provides a graphical design environment that mimics the intuitive visual whiteboard design process practiced in biological laboratories. The key innovations of DeviceEditor include visual combinatorial library design, direct integration with scar-less multi-part DNA assembly design automation, and a graphical user interface for the creation and modification of design specification rules. We demonstrate how biological designs are rendered on the DeviceEditor canvas, and we present effective visualizations of genetic component ordering and combinatorial variations within complex designs.
Conclusions: DeviceEditor liberates researchers from DNA base-pair manipulation, and enables users to create successful prototypes using standardized, functional, and visual abstractions. Open and documented software interfaces support further integration of DeviceEditor with other bioCAD tools and software platforms. DeviceEditor saves researcher time and institutional resources through correct-by-construction design, the automation of tedious tasks, design reuse, and the minimization of DNA assembly costs.

TI Computational design and characterization of a temperature-sensitive
plasmid replicon for gram positive thermophiles
SO JOURNAL OF BIOLOGICAL ENGINEERING
LA English
DT Article
DE Temperature sensitive; Rolling circle; Plasmid; Clostridium
thermocellum; Gram positive; Thermophile
AB Background: Temperature-sensitive (Ts) plasmids are useful tools for genetic engineering, but there are currently none compatible with the gram positive, thermophilic, obligate anaerobe, Clostridium thermocellum. Traditional mutagenesis techniques yield Ts mutants at a low frequency, and therefore requires the development of high-throughput screening protocols, which are also not available for this organism. Recently there has been progress in the development of computer algorithms which can predict Ts mutations. Most plasmids currently used for genetic modification of C. thermocellum are based on the replicon of plasmid pNW33N, which replicates using the RepB replication protein. To address this problem, we set out to create a Ts plasmid by mutating the gene coding for the RepB replication protein using an algorithm designed by Varadarajan et al. (1996) for predicting Ts mutants based on the amino-acid sequence of the protein.
Results: A library of 34 mutant plasmids was designed, synthesized and screened, resulting in 6 mutants which exhibited a Ts phenotype. Of these 6, the one with the most temperature-sensitive phenotype (M166A) was compared with the original plasmid. It exhibited lower stability at 48 degrees C and was completely unable to replicate at 55 degrees C.
Conclusions: The plasmid described in this work could be useful in future efforts to genetically engineer C. thermocellum, and the method used to generate this plasmid may be useful for others trying to make Ts plasmids.

TI High-throughput Crystallization of Membrane Proteins Using the Lipidic
Bicelle Method
SO JOVE-JOURNAL OF VISUALIZED EXPERIMENTS
LA English
DT Article
DE Molecular Biology; Issue 59; membrane proteins crystallization; bicelle;
lipidic crystallization
AB Membrane proteins (MPs) play a critical role in many physiological processes such as pumping specific molecules across the otherwise impermeable membrane bilayer that surrounds all cells and organelles. Alterations in the function of MPs result in many human diseases and disorders; thus, an intricate understanding of their structures remains a critical objective for biological research. However, structure determination of MPs remains a significant challenge often stemming from their hydrophobicity.
MPs have substantial hydrophobic regions embedded within the bilayer. Detergents are frequently used to solubilize these proteins from the bilayer generating a protein-detergent micelle that can then be manipulated in a similar manner as soluble proteins. Traditionally, crystallization trials proceed using a protein-detergent mixture, but they often resist crystallization or produce crystals of poor quality. These problems arise due to the detergent's inability to adequately mimic the bilayer resulting in poor stability and heterogeneity. In addition, the detergent shields the hydrophobic surface of the MP reducing the surface area available for crystal contacts. To circumvent these drawbacks MPs can be crystallized in lipidic media, which more closely simulates their endogenous environment, and has recently become a de novo technique for MP crystallization.
Lipidic cubic phase (LCP) is a three-dimensional lipid bilayer penetrated by an interconnected system of aqueous channels(1). Although monoolein is the lipid of choice, related lipids such as monopalmitolein and monovaccenin have also been used to make LCP2. MPs are incorporated into the LCP where they diffuse in three dimensions and feed crystal nuclei. A great advantage of the LCP is that the protein remains in a more native environment, but the method has a number of technical disadvantages including high viscosity (requiring specialized apparatuses) and difficulties in crystal visualization and manipulation(3,4). Because of these technical difficulties, we utilized another lipidic medium for crystallization-bicelles(5,6) (Figure 1). Bicelles are lipid/amphiphile mixtures formed by blending a phosphatidylcholine lipid (DMPC) with an amphiphile (CHAPSO) or a short-chain lipid (DHPC). Within each bicelle disc, the lipid molecules generate a bilayer while the amphiphile molecules line the apolar edges providing beneficial properties of both bilayers and detergents. Importantly, below their transition temperature, protein-bicelle mixtures have a reduced viscosity and are manipulated in a similar manner as detergent-solubilized MPs, making bicelles compatible with crystallization robots.
Bicelles have been successfully used to crystallize several membrane proteins(5,7-11) (Table 1). This growing collection of proteins demonstrates the versatility of bicelles for crystallizing both alpha helical and beta sheet MPs from prokaryotic and eukaryotic sources. Because of these successes and the simplicity of high-throughput implementation, bicelles should be part of every membrane protein crystallographer's arsenal. In this video, we describe the bicelle methodology and provide a step-by-step protocol for setting up high-throughput crystallization trials of purified MPs using standard robotics.

ID NANOWIRE HETEROSTRUCTURES; GROWTH
AB The boundary conditions for materials science and device physics in 1D semiconductors are dramatically different from their bulk counterparts. From a materials perspective, surface energetics dominates growth and structural integrity in 1D materials and helps extend their coherency limits for heterostructuring compared to bulk. From a device perspective, compositional changes along their 1D axis provide new control over charge transport, and their cylindrical structure allows for better electronic and optoelectronic device architectures. While we exploited interface engineering to provide new foundations for materials science in nanoscale 1D semiconductors and to perfect their crystal growth, we highlight below some of the opportunities made available by such advances and discuss the challenges that face their development a fundamental growth-device inter-relation level. We focus our discussion on bottom-up or vapor-liquid-solid 1D grown Ge/Si heterostructures.

ID HETEROJUNCTION BIPOLAR-TRANSISTORS; RELIABILITY; DEGRADATION
AB Step-stress experiments on high-voltage Npn InGaP/GaAs HBTs are shown to reveal a number of degradation mechanisms, singly or in combinations: defect buildup in the emitter depletion region, defect buildup in the neutral base region, possible degradation of Ohmic contacts or increase in epitaxial layer resistances. Defect buildup in the emitter depletion region often precedes other types of degradation. Two less commonly reported degradation mechanisms are also suggested: base Ohmic metal punch-through to the collector and deterioration of the die attach material. It was found that the vast majority of devices failed within 5% of a maximum attainable power level, but when stressed just shy of this catastrophic level, electrical characteristics typically degraded gradually.

AB Microsystem technologies have the potential to significantly improve the performance, reduce the cost, and extend the capabilities of solar power systems. These benefits are possible due to a number of significant beneficial scaling effects within solar cells, modules, and systems that are manifested as the size of solar cells decrease to the sub-millimeter range. To exploit these benefits, we are using advanced fabrication techniques to create solar cells from a variety of compound semiconductors and silicon that have lateral dimensions of 250 - 1000 mu m and are 1 - 20 mu m thick. These fabrication techniques come out of relatively mature microsystem technologies such as integrated circuits(IC) and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) which provide added supply chain and scale-up benefits compared to even incumbent PV technologies.

AB This paper presents the development of a risk assessment tool developed to mediate technical issues arising from the co-location of potash, oil and natural gas resources in the Delaware Basin in the southwestern United States, and the competing industrial interests in those resources. The risk assessment model focuses on the issue of potential natural gas migration from a leaking gas wellbore, through the geologic section, and into a potash mine. The framework of the risk assessment model is described, and example geomechanical calculations are presented which examine the effect of subsidence from a potash mine on nearby gas wellbore casings.

The analyses performed in this report were in response to a borehole casing failure discovered at the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve's West Hackberry site. The intent of these calculations is to utilize high-performance geomechanical analyses to provide real-time support to field operations and assure cavern integrity. Additional analyses in this report demonstrate the capability to anticipate potential problems that may occur in the field, and plan operational procedures to prevent or mitigate negative consequences.

AB The U.S. Department of Energy had plans to leach two new caverns and convert one of the existing caverns within the Bayou Choctaw salt dome to expand its petroleum reserve storage capacity. The structural integrity of the three expansion caverns and the interaction between all the caverns in the dome are investigated through FEM analysis. The impacts of the expansion on underground creep closure, surface subsidence, infrastructure and well integrity are quantified. The three expansion caverns are predicted to be structurally stable against tensile failure. Dilatant failure is not expected within the vicinity of the expansion caverns. Damage to surface structures is not predicted and there is not a marked increase in surface strains due to the presence of the expansion caverns. The wells into the caverns should not undergo yield. The results show that from a structural viewpoint, the locations of the two newly proposed expansion caverns are acceptable.

AB The Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling & Simulation (NEAMS) Waste Integrated Performance & Safety Code (IPSC) project is tasked to develop the "next-generation" of computational tools to model nuclear waste repositories in order to quantitatively assess the long-term performance of a disposal (or a storage) system in an engineered/geologic environment. To achieve this goal, the Waste IPSC will incorporate three levels of model fidelity: constitutive relationships derived from mechanistic sub-continuum processes; high-fidelity continuum models; and moderate-fidelity Performance Assessment (PA) continuum models. The integration of modeling and simulation capabilities at these three levels of fidelity will derive from a combination of existing code acquisition and new code development. An effort on high-fidelity continuum modeling was undertaken to exercise the existing SIERRA Mechanics code suite. A series of simulations and their results will be presented and discussed herein to illustrate some of the capabilities available in SIERRA Mechanics for simulating salt repositories.

AB Coupled thermal-mechanical, three-dimensional, finite-element analyses were used to evaluate generic design concepts for a repository in salt, for spent nuclear fuel and high-level waste. This work used heat generation by spent nuclear fuel (SNF) typical of that presently stored at reactor sites in the U.S. For waste packages containing 4-PWR SNF assemblies, the results show peak temperatures within previously identified ranges acceptable for salt media. Peak temperatures and maximum backfill consolidation occur at the package-salt interface. Significant consolidation of the backfill, and closure of the mined opening, is projected to continue after peak temperatures are realized. For larger 21-PWR SNF packages, the peak temperature could approach 450 degrees C locally or lower, depending on the aging history of the fuel. This ongoing study suggests the feasibility of a SNF management strategy using decay storage and larger (e.g., 21-PWR) waste packages.

AB Automated segmentation of multi-part anatomical objects in images is a challenging task. In this paper, we propose a similarity-based appearance-prior to fit a compartmental geometric atlas of the mouse brain in gene expression images. A subdivision mesh which is used to model the geometry is deformed using a Markov Random Field (MRF) framework. The proposed appearance-prior is computed as a function of the similarity between local patches at corresponding atlas locations from two images. In addition, we introduce a similarity-saliency score to select the mesh points that are relevant for the computation of the proposed prior. Our method significantly improves the accuracy of the atlas fitting, especially in the regions that are influenced by the selected similarity-salient points, and outperforms the previous subdivision mesh fitting methods for gene expression images.

DE Biomedical image search; content-based image retrieval; learning from

AB Traditional content-based image retrieval methods based on learning from examples analyze and attempt to understand high-level semantics of an image as a whole. They typically apply certain case-based reasoning technique to interpret and retrieve images through measuring the semantic similarity or relatedness between example images and search candidate images. The drawback of such a traditional content-based image retrieval paradigm is that the summation of imagery contents in an image tends to lead to tremendous variation from image to image. Hence, semantically related images may only exhibit a small pocket of common elements, if at all. Such variability in image visual composition poses great challenges to content-based image retrieval methods that operate at the granularity of entire images. In this study, we explore a new content-based image retrieval algorithm that mines visual patterns of finer granularities inside a whole image to identify visual instances which can more reliably and generically represent a given search concept. We performed preliminary experiments to validate our new idea for content-based image retrieval and obtained very encouraging results.

AB It has been known since the days of the Intersecting Storage Rings, ISR, at CERN, that one can have pp interactions with more than one pomeron, P, exchanged, known as double pomeron exchange. Exclusive hadronic systems, produced by double pomeron exchange, D P E, have the potential of opening a rich new window on hadron spectroscopy and the diffraction mechanism. We have studied events of the type p + (p) over bar -> p + X + (p) over bar where X is a hadron pair (mostly pi(+)pi(-)) at root s = 900 GeV and 1960 GeV in the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF). The hadron pair is central, y approximate to 0, and between two rapidity gaps Delta y approximate to 4. The dominant process is double pomeron exchange, D P E, with restrictions on the quantum numbers of X: Q = S = 0, C = + 1, J = 0 or 2. The mass spectra, with about 300K candidate events assumed to be pi(+)pi(-), shows strong resonant structures attributed to f(0) and f(2) states. We give the ratio of cross sections at root s = 900 GeV and 1960 GeV, and compare with Regge expectations.

ID JEFFERSON-LAB; SCATTERING
AB Measurement of single (SSA) and double spin asymmetries (DSA) in semi-inclusive DIS reactions using polarized targets provide a powerful method to probe transverse momentum dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs). In particular, the experimentally measured SSA on nucleon targets can help in extracting the transversity and Sivers distribution functions of u and d-quarks. Similarly, the measured DSA are sensitive to the quark spin-orbital correlations, and provide an access to the TMD parton distribution function (g(1T)). A recent experiment conducted in Hall-A Jefferson Lab using transversely polarized He-3 provide first such measurements on "effective" neutron target. The measurement was performed using 5.9 GeV beam from CEBAF and measured the target SSA/DSA in the SIDIS reaction He-3 (up arrow) (e, e' pi(+/-))X. The kinematical range, x = 0.19 +/- 0.34, at Q(2) = 1.77 similar to 2.73 (GeV/c)(2), was focused on the valence quark region. The results from this measurement along with our plans for future high precision measurements in Hall-A are presented.

ID BARYON RESONANCES
AB The study of nucleon resonances in electromagnetic meson production with the CLAS detector is discussed. The electromagnetic interaction is complementary to pion scattering in the exploration of the nucleon excitation spectrum. Higher mass states often decouple from the N pi channel and are not seen in pi N -> pi N. Photoproduction of mesons, such as K A, wp and eta' p may be more sensitive to many of these states. The CLAS detector, combined with the use of energy-tagged polarized photons and polarized electrons, as well as polarized targets and the measurement of recoil polarization, are the tools needed for a comprehensive nucleon resonance program. Some of the recently published high statistics data sets had significant impact on further clarifying the nucleon excitation spectrum.

ID CHIRAL PERTURBATION-THEORY; PI; SCATTERING
AB K-l4 are for several reasons an especially interesting decay channel of K mesons: K-l4 decays allow an accurate measurement of a combination of S -wave pi pi scattering lengths, one form factor of the decay is connected to the chiral anomaly and the decay is the best source for the determination of some low energy constants of ChPT. We present a dispersive approach to K-l4 decays, which takes rescattering effects fully into account. Some fits to NA48/2 and E865 measurements and results of the matching to ChPT are shown.

AB A large part of the experimental program in Hall B of the Jefferson Lab is dedicated to light baryon spectroscopy. Meson photoprodcution experiments are essential part of this program. CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) and availability of circularly and linearly polarized tagged photon beams and frozen spin polarized targets provide unique conditions for this type of experiments. This combination of experimental tools gives a remarkable opportunity to measure double polarization observables for different pseudo-scalar meson photoproduction processes. For the first time, a complete or nearly complete measurement became possible and will facilitate model independent extraction of the reaction amplitude. An overview of the experimental program and its current status together with recent results on double polarization measurements in pi(+) photoproduction are presented.

AB The goal of the GlueX experiment [1] is to provide critical data to help understand the soft gluonic field responsible for binding quarks in hadrons. Hybrid mesons, and in particular exotic hybrid mesons, provide the ideal laboratory for testing QCD in the confinement regime since these mesons explicitly manifest the gluonic degrees of freedom. Photoproduction is expected to be particularly effective in producing exotic hybrids but there is little data on the photoproduction of light mesons. GlueX will use the new 12-GeV electron beam to produce a 9-GeV beam of linearly polarized photons using the technique of coherent bremsstrahlung. A solenoid-based hermetic detector is under construction, which will be used to collect data on meson production and decays. These data will also be used to study the spectrum of conventional mesons, including the poorly understood excited vector mesons. This talk will describe the latest theoretical developments [2] to help understand how the data of hybrid mesons can provide insights into the fundamental theory of strong interactions.

AB Minimal surface roughness is a critical feature for high-field superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities used to engineer particle accelerators. Current methods for polishing Niobium cavities typically utilize solutions containing a mixture of concentrated sulfuric and hydrofluoric acid. Polishing processes such as these are effective, yet there are many hazards and costs associated with the use (and safe disposal) of the concentrated acid solutions. An alternative method for electrochemical polishing of the cavities was explored using a novel ionic liquid solution containing choline chloride. Potentiostatic electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used to analyze the ionic polishing solution. Final surface roughness of the Nb was found to be comparable to that of the acid-polishing method, as assessed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). This indicates that ionic liquid-based electrochemical polishing of Nb is a viable replacement for acid-based methods for preparation of SRF cavities.

AB Recent research has shown that choline chloride-based solutions can be used to replace acid-based electrochemical polishing solutions. In this study niobium metal was successfully deposited on the surface of copper substrate via electrochemical deposition using a novel choline chloride-based ionic liquid. The niobium metal used for deposition on the Cu had been dissolved in the solution from electrochemical polishing of a solid niobium piece prior to the deposition. The visible coating on the surface of the Cu was analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDX). This deposition method effectively recycles previously dissolved niobium from electrochemical polishing.

AB This study involved the deposition of black cobalt onto the surface of a copper substrate using a choline chloride-based ionic liquid. The solution used for electro-deposition contained a 2: 1 molar ratio of ethylene glycol and choline chloride, containing CoCl2. Depositions were performed for 30 minutes, with the solution kept at a constant temperature of 70 degrees C. The black Co coating on the surface of the Cu substrate was confirmed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF). This ionic liquid-based electrochemical deposition process could be used as an inexpensive method for solar power generation.

AB Anhydrous nickel, niobium and tantalum chlorides were studied with cyclic voltammetry and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) in acidic and basic aluminum chloride/1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium chloride (EMIC) ionic liquids. Nickel chloride in an acidic melt displays metal stripping peaks which are not observed in the basic melt. XAS analysis shows that the nickel is tetrahedrally coordinated in the basic melt while in the acidic melt, it is coordinated by 6 chloride ions that are also associated with aluminum ions. For Nb2Cl10, the XAS data shows that the Nb has a coordination shell of 5 in both the acidic and basic melts, indicating that the Nb2Cl10 breaks up into two NbCl5 entities in both melts. For Ta2Cl10 in the acidic melt, the tantalum has five chlorides in its coordination shell. In the basic solution, the tantalum is coordinated by 7 chlorides. This indicates that the Lewis acidity of the tantalum chloride causes the Ta to coordinate differently in the acidic and the basic ionic liquids.

AB We report grain size effect on the densities of edge and mixed dislocations in nanocrystalline Mo prepared by high-pressure torsion: with decreasing grain size the density first increases and then decreases. The trend of grain size effect on the density of edge and mixed dislocations mirrors the reported grain size effect on the strain rate sensitivity of bcc metals, suggesting that the high density of edge and mixed dislocations contribute to the reduction of strain rate sensitivity. We also observed for the first time the 1/2 < 111 > and < 001 > pure edge dislocations under high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). Crystallographic analysis and simulations reveal that the best way to study the edge dislocations or the edge components of mixed dislocations is to take HRTEM images along a < 110 > zone axis. The < 001 > pure edge dislocations can be easily identified from a < 100 >< 100 > zone axis. This work not only sheds light on the deformation mechanisms of nanocrystalline bcc metals, but also provides guidance on future HRTEM studies of their dislocation structures.

AB Understanding the evolution of grain microstructures is one of the central problems of materials science. This paper provides an overview of some recent efforts to use molecular dynamics simulation methods to obtain some of the fundamental interfacial properties that drive the evolution and also to directly examine grain evolution. The interfacial properties include the energy and free energy of the boundaries as well as the interfacial mobility. The reliability of the energy predictions is assessed by comparisons to recent determinations of grain boundary energy distributions and grain boundary character distributions. Finally, the direct simulation of the annealing of a nanocrystalline grain structure provides insights into the kinetics of nanocrystalline grain growth and suggests an explanation of grain growth stagnation.

TI Ultra-compact silicon nanophotonic modulator with broadband response
SO NANOPHOTONICS

DE Modulator; silicon-on-insulator; ultra-compact
AB Electro-optic modulators have been identified as the key drivers for optical communication and signal processing. With an ongoing miniaturization of photonic circuitries, an outstanding aim is to demonstrate an on-chip, ultra-compact, electro-optic modulator without sacrificing bandwidth and modulation strength. While silicon-based electro-optic modulators have been demonstrated, they require large device footprints of the order of millimeters as a result of weak non-linear electro-optical properties. The modulation strength can be increased by deploying a high-Q resonator, however with the trade-off of significantly sacrificing bandwidth. Furthermore, design challenges and temperature tuning limit the deployment of such resonance-based modulators. Recently, novel materials like graphene have been investigated for electro-optic modulation applications with a 0.1 dB per micrometer modulation strength, while showing an improvement over pure silicon devices, this design still requires device lengths of tens of micrometers due to the inefficient overlap between the thin graphene layer, and the optical mode of the silicon waveguide. Here we experimentally demonstrate an ultra-compact, silicon-based, electro-optic modulator with a record-high 1 dB per micrometer extinction ratio over a wide bandwidth range of 1 mu m in ambient conditions. The device is based on a plasmonic metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) waveguide, which efficiently concentrates the optical modes' electric field into a nanometer thin region comprised of an absorption coefficient- tuneable indium-tin-oxide (ITO) layer. The modulation mechanism originates from electrically changing the free carrier concentration of the ITO layer which dramatically increases the loss of this MOS mode. The seamless integration of such a strong optical beam modulation into an existing silicon-on-insulator platform bears significant potential towards broadband, compact and efficient communication links and circuits.

DT Review
DE Solar hydrogen; photocatalyst; photoelectrode; water splitting
AB Conversion of energy from photons in sunlight to hydrogen through solar splitting of water is an important technology. The rising significance of producing hydrogen from solar light via water splitting has motivated a surge of developing semiconductor solar-active nanostructures as photocatalysts and photoelectrodes. Traditional strategies have been developed to enhance solar light absorption (e.g., ion doping, solid solution, narrow-band-gap semiconductor or dye sensitization) and improve charge separation/transport to prompt surface reaction kinetics (e.g., semiconductor combination, co-catalyst loading, nanostructure design) for better utilizing solar energy. However, the solar-to-hydrogen efficiency is still limited. This article provides an overview of recently demonstrated novel concepts of nanostructure designs for efficient solar hydrogen conversion, which include surface engineering, novel nanostructured heterojunctions, and photonic crystals. Those first results outlined in the main text encouragingly point out the prominence and promise of these new concepts principled for designing high-efficiency electronic and photonic nanostructures that could serve for sustainable solar hydrogen production.

AB Through the integration of semiconductors or complex oxides into metal resonators, tunable metamaterials have been achieved by a change of environment using an external stimulus. Metals provide high conductivity to realize a strong resonant response in metamaterials; however, they contribute very little to the tunability. The complex conductivity in high-temperature superconducting films is highly sensitive to external perturbations, which provides new opportunities in achieving tunable metamaterials resulting directly from the resonant elements. Additionally, superconducting metamaterials are expected to enable strong nonlinear response and quantum effects, particularly when Josephson junctions are integrated into the metamaterial resonant elements. Here we demonstrate ultrafast dynamical tuning of resonance in the terahertz (THz) frequency range in YBa2Cu3O7-8 (YBCO) split-ring resonator (SRR) arrays excited by near infrared femtosecond laser pulses. The photoexcitation breaks the superconducting Cooper pairs to create quasiparticles. This dramatically modifies the imaginary part of the complex conductivity and consequently the metamaterial resonance on an ultrafast timescale, although the real conductivity does not change significantly. We observed resonance switching accompanied by substantial frequency tuning as a function of photoexcitation fluence, which also strongly depends on the nanoscale thickness of the superconducting films. All of our experimental results agree with calculations using an analytical model, which takes into account the contributions of the complex conductivity of the YBCO films to SRR resistance and kinetic inductance. The theoretical calculations reveal that the increasing SRR resistance upon increasing photoexcitation fluence is responsible for the reduction of resonance strength, and changes in both the resistance and kinetic inductance cause the resonance frequency shifts.

AB We describe here nanoimprinted plasmonic crystals composed of highly uniform subwavelength metal nanohole and nanopost arrays and their application in surface-enhanced sensing and imaging. Soft nanoimprint lithography is a versatile, cost-effective method to precisely replicate these structures with well-characterized optical properties. These plasmonic crystals support multiple surface plasmon modes controlled by the design rules of the nanostructures, allowing us to optimize the devices for operation in a particular wavelength range. We have demonstrated the ability to spectroscopically measure bulk refractive index changes and mechanical deformation of hydrogels resulting from pH changes, thin film imaging with sensitivities down to submonolayer levels using a common optical microscope, and Raman signal enhancement using a single common device framework. These plasmonic crystals have the potential to overcome many of the technological limitations that have limited the widespread application and integration of surface-enhanced analytical techniques.

AB Although bacterial culture remains the gold standard for detection of viable bacteria in environmental specimens, the typical time requirement of twenty-four hours can delay and even jeopardize appropriate public health intervention. In addition, culture is incapable of detecting viable but not culturable (VBNC) species. Conversely, nucleic acid and antibody-based methods greatly decrease time to detection but rarely characterize viability of the bacteria detected. Through selection by membrane permeability, the method described in this work employs positive dielectrophoresis (pDEP) for separation and purification of viable and VBNC species from water and allows concentration of bacteria for downstream applications.

AB We have developed a method for spraying smooth thin films of carbon nanotubes without the aid of surfactants. The nanotubes are suspended in N-methyl Pyrollidone (NMP) and sprayed onto a heated substrate using an ultrasonic spray nozzle that is rastered over the spray area. The resulting nanotube films are washed in NMP or water to remove residual impurities.
The film thickness is controlled by the number of rasters, and is measured by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The films are then characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and their conductivity is measured.

ID ABSORPTION; NANOPARTICLES
AB Mercury is a well-studied neurotoxin that is of particular concern to infants and pregnant mothers. Nearly half of the anthropogenic mercury that is released into the environment comes from the combustion of fossil fuels, mostly coal to provide electrical power [1]. Additionally recent regulations in the United States have renewed focus on the monitoring and emissions of mercury from these large stationary combustion sources [2]. Current methods for mercury detection either do not have sufficient sensitivity for ambient measurements near sources or are complicated and costly [3]. We developed a fiber optic based sensor for the detection of atmospheric elemental mercury that uses gold nanoparticles as the sensing medium. Previous work established that the localized surface plasmon resonance peak blue-shifts when exposed to mercury in an aqueous environment, with the addition of a reducing agent [3][4]. Fiber optic evanescent sensors have been used as chemical and biological sensors [5] [6]. Combining these two results has allowed us to develop a stable mercury sensor with a sensitivity in the micrograms per cubic meter range, comparable to commercial sensors, at a fraction of the cost.

AB Babylon governorate in Iraq (located at 90 km south of Baghdad) is characterized by cold winters and very hot summers. Passive solar techniques could be easily adopted to provide energy-efficient thermal comfort year around. This will reduce the energy consumption and the impact on the environment, and will alleviate the discomfort of residents who have only limited or intermittent power supplies.
Passive solar design is the key to sustainable building when it can reduce energy loads using techniques that use the sun's energy to heat a home in the cold winter, breezes to cool a home in the hot summer, and simple, logical design and construction strategies. Passive design can reduce temperature fluctuations, improve indoor air quality and make a home drier and more enjoyable to live in while reducing energy from external sources.
Buildings with good passive strategies are not difficult to design or expensive to build, but they require common sense in working with the environment at hand. The key elements of passive design are: building location and orientation on the site; building layout; window design (day lighting); insulation (including window insulation); thermal mass; shading; and ventilation.

AB Solar energy is an ideal application for Iraqi schools, where most energy demands are confined to the daytime, when the solar radiation is at its maximum value.
The study compares the life cycle cost of a solar PV system to that of a diesel generation for meeting the electricity needs of a case-study school in Babylon, Iraq. The PV system is modeled using accepted principles for photovoltaic applications from Solar Energy International and the Sandia National Laboratory Handbook of Recommended Design Practice. HOMER software, developed by the U.S. DOE National Renewable Energy Laboratory, is used for economic feasibility analysis. The study finds that the life cycle cost of a PV generation system is approximately 35% that of a diesel generation system.
Furthermore, the PV system does not produce the noise, pollution and odor of diesel generators, which are ubiquitous in Iraq today.

AB To improve energy security, the U.S. military is pursuing a long-term plan to improve the energy efficiency of its operations. As part of this effort, the U.S. Pacific Command (PACOM) has begun a research program for Transformative Reductions in Operational Energy Consumption (TROPEC), which will identify, refine and validate technologies to reduce energy use in expeditionary military outposts, for energy end-uses such as heating, cooling, water heating, lighting, and electronics. The program includes a multi-stage process-the Innovations Network-to identify and screen candidate technologies for testing. Technology developers, especially startups and other small businesses, can submit energy efficiency technologies for consideration. Technologies that offer military utility and are technically sound will undergo testing and further development at a Department of Energy national laboratory, then operational testing by the Marine Forces Pacific Experimentation Center.

ID TOXICITY
AB Commercialization of carbon nanotube field emission displays (CNT-FEDs) is highly encouraged because of their conceptually proven features that offer multiple benefits to consumers. However, considering they are nanomaterial-enabled (CNT) products, large-scale deployment of CNT-FEDs must be approached cautiously because of their potential to adversely impact human health. To better understand of the holistic human health and environmental impacts related to CNT-enabled products, life cycle assessment (LCA) can be used to evaluate the environmental performance of a CNT-FED. In this study, we report and discuss the results obtained from a screening level, cradle-to-grave LCA of a conceptual 15-inch CNT-FED which is assumed to be produced, used for its effective life and disposed of without recycling in the US. Results show the manufacturing stage dominates the life cycle impacts. However, the environmental performance of a CNT-FED is still much better than cathode ray tube (CRTs) and liquid crystal displays (LCDs).

AB The magnetic properties of matter continue to be a vibrant research area driven both by scientific curiosity to unravel the basic physical processes which govern magnetism and the vast and diverse utilization of magnetic materials in current and future devices, e. g., in information and sensor technologies. Relevant length and time scales approach fundamental limits of magnetism and with state-of- the-art synthesis approaches we are able to create and tailor unprecedented properties. Novel analytical tools are required to match these advances and soft X-ray probes are among the most promising ones. Strong and element-specific magnetic X-ray dichroism effects as well as the nanometer wavelength of photons and the availability of fsec short and intense X-ray pulses at upcoming X-ray sources enable unique experimental opportunities for the study of magnetic behavior. This article provides an overview of recent achievements and future perspectives in magnetic soft X-ray spectromicroscopies which permit us to gain spatially resolved insight into the ultrafast spin dynamics and the magnetic properties of buried interfaces of advanced magnetic nanostructures.

PHARMACODYNAMIC MODEL
AB Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling offers a scientifically-sound framework for integrating mechanistic data on absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination to predict the time-course of parent chemical, metabolite(s) or biomarkers in the exposed organism. A major advantage of PBPK models is their ability to forecast the impact of specific mechanistic processes and determinants on the tissue dose. In this regard, they facilitate integration of data obtained with in vitro and in silico methods, for making predictions of the tissue dosimetry in the whole animal, thus reducing and/or refining the use of animals in pharmacokinetic and toxicity studies. This chapter presents the principles and practice of PBPK modeling, as well as the application of these models in toxicity testing and health risk assessments.

AB Commercial Si wafer solar cells employ screen printed Ag grids as the front contact and Al layers as the back contact. The drive to decrease cost is pushing manufacturers to seek both lower cost materials and methods. One obvious material change is to replace Ag with lower cost metals such as Ni and Cu. Shifting to thinner Si wafers is another reasonable cost saving measure, but it will also necessitate replacing contact methods like screen printing. Inkjet and aerosol jet printing are excellent non-contact choices. These tools have been incorporated into NREL's Atmospheric Processing Platform, along with complementary rapid thermal processing capabilities. We have used these tools to deposit Ni/Cu bilayer grids as the front contacts and Al layers as the back contacts on 21 cm(2) Si solar cells. To our knowledge, this is the first time all non-contact printed metal contacts on Si solar cells have been demonstrated These studies also show the potential of non-contact printed Al, Ni, and Cu inks to contribute to the fabrication of low-cost photovoltaic devices.

SO NUCLEAR PHYSICS A

DT Article
DE Quark-gluon plasma; Heavy-ion collisions; Thermalization
AB In ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions, the matter formed shortly after the collision is a dense, out of equilibrium, system of gluons characterized by a semi-hard momentum scale Q(s). Simple power counting arguments indicate that this system is over-occupied: the gluon occupation number is parametrically large when compared to a system in thermal equilibrium with the same energy density. On short time scales, soft elastic scattering tends to drive the system toward the formation of a Bose-Einstein condensate that contains a large fraction of the gluons while contributing little to the energy density. The lifetime and existence of this condensate depends on whether inelastic processes, that occur on the same time scale as elastic processes, preferably increase or decrease the number of gluons. During this overpopulated stage, and all the way to thermalization, the system behaves as a strongly interacting fluid, even though the elementary coupling constant is small. Finally, we argue that while complete isotropization may never be reached, the system may yet evolve for a long time with a fixed anisotropy between average longitudinal and transverse momenta.

AB The H -> ZZ(*) -> 4l channel has long been known to be the dominant discovery channel for the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson with the ATLAS detector, thanks to its clean signature of 4 isolated leptons. However, some Hidden Valley (HV) scenarios predict the existence of a new sector with Higgs and gauge bosons (Z'). The Higgs boson could therefore decay to a pair of Z' through the mixing between the Standard Model (SM) and the HV sectors. In this study, prospects for a Higgs discovery in the decay channel H -> Z'Z' -> 4l (where l can either be an electron or a muon) is being investigated. This channel has both a clean signature and a potentially large branching ratio for a low mass Higgs boson (m(H) < 200 GeV/c(2)). The Z' bosons in the present model can have a mass as low as 5 GeV/c2, and decay preferably to SM fermions (leptons or light quarks) with a very narrow width. The H -> Z' Z' -> 4l channel can be explored a similar way to the standard H -> ZZ(*) -> 4l channel, by changing the constraints on the dilepton invariant mass. Based on the study of 9 benchmark points, we developed a new algorithm to select our signal and reject the SM background, by constraining the two dilepton pairs to have the same mass within a certain window. The dominant backgrounds are also studied. Perspectives on this new approach with the ATLAS experiment are presented.

DE Adaptive system; prefetching; performance
AB Hardware data prefetch engines are integral parts of many general purpose server-class microprocessors in the field today. Some prefetch engines allow the user to change some of their parameters. The prefetcher, however, is usually enabled in a default configuration during system bring-up and dynamic reconfiguration of the prefetch engine is not an autonomic feature of current machines. Conceptually, however, it is easy to infer that commonly used prefetch algorithms, when applied in a fixed mode will not help performance in many cases. In fact, they may actually degrade performance due to useless bus bandwidth consumption and cache pollution. In this paper, we present an adaptive prefetch scheme that dynamically modifies the prefetch settings in order to adapt to the workload requirements. We implement and evaluate adaptive prefetching in the context of an existing, commercial processor, namely the IBM POWER7. Our adaptive prefetch mechanism improves performance with respect to the default prefetch setting up to 2.7X and 30% for single-threaded and multiprogrammed workloads, respectively.

DE Compiler; Communication; Autotuning; Latency; Bandwidth
AB Future computing system designs will be constrained by power density and total system energy, and will require new programming models and implementation strategies. Data movement in the memory system and interconnect will dominate running time and energy costs, making communication cost reduction the primary optimization criteria for compilers. Communication cost can be divided into latency costs, which are per communication event, and bandwidth costs, which grow with total communication volume.
Latency can be reduced by a number of techniques, including message aggregation, reducing software overhead of messaging, and overlapping communication with computation or with other communication events. While these techniques have been studied extensively, there are still many open challenges in automating these techniques in the context of explicitly parallel programs. I will describe some of the history of this work, and the program analysis challenges related to keeping a simple semantic model for programmers.
Bandwidth reduction requires more substantial algorithmic transformations, although some techniques, such as loop tiling, are well known. These can be applied as hand-optimizations, through code generation strategies in autotuned libraries, or as fully automatic compiler transformations. Less obvious techniques for communication avoidance have arisen in developing algorithms that are provably communication-optimal, the so-called "2.5D" algorithms in dense linear algebra. I will describe how these ideas generalize to other loop nests and some initial thoughts on automating such transformations.

AB Debugging large-scale parallel applications is challenging. Most existing techniques provide mechanisms for process control but little information about the causes of failures. Most debuggers also scale poorly despite continued growth in supercomputer core counts. Our novel, highly scalable tool helps developers to understand and to fix performance failures and correctness problems at scale. Our tool probabilistically infers the least progressed task in MPI programs using Markov models of execution history and dependence analysis. This analysis guides program slicing to find code that may have caused a failure. In a blind study, we demonstrate that our tool can isolate the root cause of a particularly perplexing bug encountered at scale in a molecular dynamics simulation. Further, we perform fault injections into two benchmark codes and measure the scalability of the tool. Our results show that it accurately detects the least progressed task in most cases and can perform the diagnosis in a fraction of a second with thousands of tasks.

computing
AB High performance is a crucial consideration when executing a complex analytic query on a massive semantic graph. In a semantic graph, vertices and edges carry "attributes" of various types. Analytic queries on semantic graphs typically depend on the values of these attributes; thus, the computation must either view the graph through a filter that passes only those individual vertices and edges of interest, or else must first materialize a subgraph or subgraphs consisting of only the vertices and edges of interest. The filtered approach is superior due to its generality, ease of use, and memory efficiency, but may carry a performance cost. In the Knowledge Discovery Toolbox (KDT), a Python library for parallel graph computations, the user writes filters in a high-level language, but those filters result in relatively low performance due to the bottleneck of having to call into the Python interpreter for each edge. In this work, we use the Selective Embedded JIT Specialization (SEJITS) approach to automatically translate filters defined by programmers into a lower-level efficiency language, bypassing the upcall into Python. We evaluate our approach by comparing it with the high-performance C++ /MPI Combinatorial BLAS engine, and show that the productivity gained by using a high-level filtering language comes without sacrificing performance.

AB The lattice Boltzmann equation (LBE) method is a promising technique for simulating fluid flows and modeling complex physics. Because the LBE model is based on microscopic models and mesoscopic kinetic equations, it offers many advantages for the study of multi-component or multiphase flows. However, there are still challenges encountered when dealing with thermal effects and multiphase flows, particularly at small scales or in varying geometries. In this paper, we discuss some techniques to overcome these challenges. First, we present an overview of the LBE method, and show how it can be extended to model multiple phases and thermal effects. Next, we describe our multi-component and multiphase (MCMP) LBE method for high density ratios. While the original formulation of Shan and Chen's (SC) model can incorporate some multiphase and component scenarios, the density ratio of the different components is restricted (less than approximately 2.0), which limits the applications. Hence, based on the SC model and improvements in the single-component multiphase (SCMP) flow model reported by Yuan and Schaefer, we have developed a new model that can simulate a MCMP system with a high density ratio. An example of that system is shown. Finally, we have developed a parallel computation LBE method based on the Compute Unified Device Architecture for NVIDIA GPUs. Using this method, we are able to efficiently model a number of phases and length scales, examples of which are presented.

ID PHASE-CHANGE MATERIALS; SIMULATION; ACCURACY; ENTHALPY
AB Research on phase change materials (PCM) as a potential technology to reduce peak loads and HVAC energy use in buildings has been conducted for several decades, resulting in a great deal of literature on PCM properties, temperature, and peak reduction potential. However, there are few building energy simulation programs that include PCM modeling features, and very few of these have been validated. Additionally, there is no previous research that indicates the level of accuracy when modeling PCMs from a building energy simulation perspective. This study analyzes the effects a nonlinear enthalpy profile has on thermal performance and expected energy benefits for PCM-enhanced insulation. The impact of accurately modeling realistic, nonlinear enthalpy profiles for PCMs versus simpler profiles is analyzed based on peak load reduction and energy savings using the Conduction Finite Difference (CondFD) algorithm in Energy Plus. The PCM and CondFD models used in this study have been previously validated after intensive verification and validation done at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Overall, the results of this study show annual energy savings are not very sensitive to the linearization of enthalpy curve. However, hourly analysis shows that if simpler linear profiles are used, users should try to specify a melting range covering roughly 80% of the latent heat, otherwise, hourly results can differ by up to 20%.

AB Pending or recently enacted greenhouse gas regulations and mandates are leading to the need for current and feasible GHG reduction solutions including combined heat and power (CHP). Distributed generation using advanced reciprocating engines, gas turbines, microturbines and fuel cells has been shown to reduce greenhouse gases (GHG) compared to the U.S. electrical generation mix due to the use of natural gas and high electrical generation efficiencies of these prime movers. Many of these prime movers are also well suited for use in CHP systems which recover heat generated during combustion or energy conversion. CUP increases the total efficiency of the prime mover by recovering waste heat for generating electricity, replacing process steam, hot water for buildings or even cooling via absorption chilling. The increased efficiency of CUP systems further reduces GHG emissions compared to systems which do not recover waste thermal energy Current GHG mandates within the U.S Federal sector and looming GHG legislation for states puts an emphasis on understanding the GHG reduction potential of such systems. This study compares the GHG savings from various state-of-the-art prime movers. GHG reductions from commercially available prime movers in the 1-5 MW class including, various industrial fuel cells, large and small gas turbines, micro turbines and reciprocating gas engines with and without CUP are compared to centralized electricity generation including the U.S. mix and the best available technology with natural gas combined cycle power plants. The findings show significant GHG saving potential with the use of CUP. Also provided is an exploration of the accounting methodology for GHG reductions with CHP and the sensitivity of such analyses to electrical generation efficiency, emissions factors and most importantly recoverable heat and thermal recovery efficiency from the CUP system.

AB Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is working with industry to independently monitor up to fifteen distinct 5 kilowatt-electric (kWe) combined heat and power (CID) high temperature (HT) proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell systems (FCSs) installed in light commercial buildings. This research paper discusses an evaluation of the first six months of measured performance data acquired at a one-second sampling rate from real-time monitoring equipment attached to the FCSs at building sites. Engineering performance parameters are independently evaluated.
Based on an analysis of the first few months of measured operating data, FCS performance is consistent with manufacturer-stated performance. Initial data indicate that the FCSs have relatively stable performance and a long term average production of about 4.57 kWe of power. This value is consistent with, but slightly below, the manufacturer's stated rated electric power output of 5 kWe. The measured system net electric efficiency has averaged 33.7%, based on the higher heating value (HHV) of natural gas fuel. This value, also, is consistent with, but slightly below, the manufacturer's stated rated electric efficiency of 36%. The FCSs provide low-grade hot water to the building at a measured average temperature of about 48.4 degrees C, lower than the manufacturer's stated maximum hot water delivery temperature of 65 degrees C.
The uptime of the systems is also evaluated. System availability can be defined as the quotient of total operating time compared to time since commissioning. The average values for system availability vary between 96.1 and 97.3%, depending on the FCS evaluated in the field. Performance at Rated Value for electrical efficiency (PRVeff) can be defined as the quotient of the system time operating at or above the rated electric efficiency and the time since commissioning. The PRVeff varies between 5.6% and 31.6%, depending on the FCS field unit evaluated. Performance at Rated Value for electrical power (PRVp) can be defined as the quotient of the system time operating at or above the rated electric power and the time since commissioning. PRVp varies between 6.5% and 16.2%. Performance at Rated Value for electrical efficiency and power (PRVt) can be defined as the quotient of the system time operating at or above both the rated electric efficiency and the electric power output compared to the time since commissioning. PRVt varies between 0.2% and 1.4%. Optimization to determine the manufacturer rating required to achieve PRVt greater than 80% has been performed based on the collected data. For example, for FCS unit 130 to achieve a PRVt of 95%, it would have to be down-rated to an electrical power output of 3.2 kWe and an electrical efficiency of 29%.The use of PRV as an assessment metric for FCSs has been developed and reported for the first time in this paper.
For FCS Unit 130, a 20% decline in electric power output was observed from approximately 5 kWe to 4 kWe over a 1,500 hour period between Dec. 14th 2011 and Feb. 14th 2012.

AB Solar Two was a demonstration of the viability of molten salt power towers. The power tower was designed to produce enough thermal power to run a 10-MWe conventional Rankine cycle turbine. A critical component of this process was the solar tower receiver. The receiver was designed for an applied average heat flux of 430 kW/m(2) with an outlet temperature of 565 degrees C (838.15 K). The mass flow rate could be varied in the system to control the outlet temperature of the heat transfer fluid, which was high temperature molten salt. The heat loss in the actual system was calculated by using the power-on method which compares how much power is absorbed by the molten salt when using half of the heliostat field and then the full heliostat field. However, the total heat loss in the system was lumped into a single value comprised of radiation, convection, and conduction heat transfer losses. In this study, ANSYS FLUENT was used to evaluate and characterize the radiative and convective heat losses from this receiver system assuming two boundary conditions: (1) a uniform heat flux on the receiver and (2) a distributed heat flux generated from the code DELSOL. The results show that the distributed-flux models resulted in radiative heat losses that were similar to 14% higher than the uniform-flux models, and convective losses that were similar to 5-10% higher due to the resulting non-uniform temperature distributions. Comparing the simulations to known convective heat loss correlations demonstrated that surface roughness should be accounted for in the simulations. This study provides a model which can be used for further receiver design and demonstrates whether current convective correlations are appropriate for analytical evaluation of external solar tower receivers.

AB Central receiver power towers are regarded as a proven concentrating solar power (CSP) technology for generating utility-scale electricity. In central receiver systems, improper alignment (canting and focusing) of heliostat facets results in beam spillage at the receiver and leads to significant degradation in performance. As a result, proper alignment of heliostats is critical for increasing plant efficiency. Past tools used for analyzing and correcting heliostat alignment at the National Solar Thermal Test Facility (NSTTF) have proven to be laborious and inaccurate, sometimes taking up to six hours per heliostat. In light of these drawbacks, Sandia National Labs (SNL) and New Mexico Tech (NMT) have created the Heliostat Focusing and Canting Enhancement Technique (H-FACET). H-FACET uses a high-resolution digital camera to observe the image of a stationary target reflected by a heliostat facet. By comparing this image to a theoretical image generated via a custom software package, technicians can efficiently identify and correct undesirable deviations in facet orientation and shape. Previous tests have only proven the viability of H-FACET for canting heliostats. As a result, SNL and NMT have expanded H-FACET's capabilities and analyzed the system's ability to simultaneously cant and focus heliostats. Initial H-FACET focusing test results have shown improved beam sizes and shapes for single facets. Furthermore, simulations of these tests revealed an approximated system accuracy of better than 1.80 milliradians. This accuracy accounted for technician, position, and additional error sources, suggesting that H-FACET was capable of focusing facets to an even greater accuracy than those seen in the initial tests. When implemented for simultaneous canting and focusing of heliostats, H-FACET has demonstrated its capability to increase peak flux and decrease beam size. These full alignment test results demonstrated an average total system accuracy of 1.17 milliradians on five heliostats. As before, this accuracy included multiple error sources which cannot be corrected by H-FACET. Additionally, these tests revealed that H-FACET can align heliostats in about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Finally, two heliostats aligned with H-FACET maintained average accuracies 1.46 and 1.24 milliradians over a four hour window centered about solar noon. This implies that H-FACET is capable of aligning heliostats to a true off-axis alignment over NSTTF's operating window. In light of these results, SNL has implemented both the focusing and canting portions of H-FACET at the NSTTF.

AB Cavity receivers used in solar power towers and dish concentrators may lose considerable energy by natural convection, which reduces the overall system efficiency. A validated numerical receiver model is desired to better understand convection processes and aid in heat loss minimization efforts. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate heat loss predictions using the commercial computational fluid dynamics software packages FLUENT 13.0 and Solid Works Flow Simulation 2011 against experimentally measured heat losses for a heated cubical cavity model [1] and a cylindrical dish receiver model [2]. Agreement within 10% was found between software packages across most simulations. However, simulated convective heat loss was under predicted by 45% for the cubical cavity when experimental wall temperatures were implemented on cavity walls, and 32% when implementing the experimental heat flux from the cavity walls. Convective heat loss from the cylindrical dish receiver model was accurately predicted within experimental uncertainties by both simulation codes using both isothermal and constant heat flux wall boundary conditions except at inclination angles below 15 and above 75, where losses were under- and over-predicted by FLUENT and SolidWorks, respectively. Comparison with empirical correlations for convective heat loss from heated cavities showed that correlations by Siebers and Kraabel [1] and for an assembly of heated flat plates oriented to the cavity geometry [3] predicted heat losses from the cubical cavity within experimental uncertainties, while correlations by Clausing [4] and Paitoonsurikarn et al. [8] were able to do the same for the cylindrical dish receiver. No single correlation was valid for both receiver models. Different turbulence and air-property models within FLUENT were also investigated and compared in this study.

AB A newly developed analytical optical approach - First-principle OPTical Intercept Calculation (FirstOPTIC) - is employed to study the optical impact of receiver position error on parabolic trough collectors. The FirstOPTIC program performs first-principle treatment system optical error sources. By analyzing a large number of cases with varying system parameters such as the overall system optical error and the collector geometrical parameters, the paper quantitatively examines the difference between the first-principle treatment and probability approximation to receiver position error. In addition, a practical correlation between actual measurement data and its probability approximation for receiver position errors is established from parametric study; the correlation can be used to evaluate the relative importance of receiver position error to the collector's optical performance. The effective coefficients defining the correlation of receiver position errors are also summarized for some existing trough collectors and make it convenient to conduct error-convolution-based optical analysis, which was not straightforward before. It is also shown that FirstOPTIC is a suitable tool for in-depth optical analysis and fast collector design optimization, which otherwise requires computationally intensive ray-tracing simulations.

Molten salt
AB The overall efficiency of a Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) plant depends on the effectiveness of Thermal Energy Storage (TES) system [1]. A single tank TES system consists of a thermocline region which produces the temperature gradient between hot and cold storage fluid by density difference [2]. Preservation of this thermocline region in the tank during charging and discharging cycles depends on the uniformity of the velocity profile at any horizontal plane. Our objective is to maximize the uniformity of the velocity distribution using a pipe-network distributor by varying the number of holes, distance between the holes, position of the holes and number of distributor pipes. For simplicity, we consider that the diameter of the inlet, main pipe, the distributor pipes and the height and the width of the tank are constant. We use Hitec (R) molten salt as the storage medium and the commercial software Gambit 2.4.6 and Fluent 6.3 for the computational analysis. We analyze the standard deviation in the velocity field and compare the deviations at different positions of the tank height for different configurations. Since, the distance of the holes from the inlet and their respective arrangements affects the flow distribution throughout the tank; we investigate the impacts of rearranging the holes position on flow distribution. Impact of the number of holes and distributor pipes are also analyzed. We analyze our findings to determine a configuration for the best case scenario.

AB The solution proposed in this paper presents a new modeling approach that integrates a generalized thermal storage performance model into a concentrating solar power (CSP) plant. The overall performance, including round trip efficiency, for a thermal energy storage system is highly dependent on the operating parameters and operation strategy of the complete power plant. Previous methods used for analysis of thermal storage have followed one of two approaches: The first requires time-intensive customized detailed performance models of the thermal storage system and the power cycle to account for the effects of charging and discharging storage on conversion efficiency and heat transfer fluid (HTF) return temperature to the solar field. The second method uses a simple energy balance with "derate" factors that do not accurately predict the effects of storage on other plant components. In this paper, we develop a generalized method based on efficiency metrics and discuss the application in TES sizing and performance evaluation for an early concept study. The method is an integral approach and complements the detailed models that simulate yearly operation of a CSP plant.

AB In 2011, the U.S. Depaitment of Energy (DOE) initiated a "SunShot Concentrating Solar Power R&D" program to develop technologies that have the potential for much higher efficiency, lower cost, and/or more reliable performance than existing CSP systems. The DOE seeks to develop highly disruptive Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) technologies that will meet 6(sic)/kWh cost targets by the end of the decade, and a high-efficiency, low-cost thermal power cycle is one of the important components to achieve the goal. Supercritical CO2 (s-CO2) operated in a closed-loop Brayton cycle offers the potential of equivalent or higher cycle efficiency versus superheated or supercritical steam cycles at temperatures relevant for CSP applications. Brayton-cycle systems using s-CO2 have a smaller weight and volume, lower thermal mass, and less complex power blocks versus Rankine cycles due to the higher density of the fluid and simpler cycle design. The simpler machinery and compact size of the s-CO2 process may also reduce the installation, maintenance and operation cost of the system.

DE DNI; Attenuation Loss; Heliostat; Central Receiver; Aerosols; Visibility
AB Atmospheric attenuation loss between a heliostat field and receiver has been recognized as a significant source of loss in Central Receiver System. Methods that can improve estimation of attenuation loss using available measurements will be useful in reducing uncertainty in estimation of CSP plant production, particularly in locations and climates that differ in atmospheric composition from typical arid desert locations. In clear sky situations, Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI) is primarily impacted by aerosols in the atmosphere. Aerosols extinct direct radiation with the photons either being absorbed or scattered based on the aerosols optical characteristics. As aerosol loading is high close to the surface, the attenuation loss between heliostat and receivers is significantly influenced by amount of aerosols present on a particular day. The purpose of the study is to understand the impact of aerosols on attenuation loss and model this loss as a function of the ratio of measured DNI to a calculated DNI for an "aerosol-free" atmosphere. The assumption here is that the reduction in clear sky DNI due to aerosols when compared to a theoretical "clean environment" value can provide valuable information about aerosol loading at the surface and therefore attenuation loss between heliostat and receiver. Preliminary analysis shows that such an approach is viable.
Historically, human observers have measured visibility on a daily basis. While these observations are subject to varying levels of uncertainty they may be a good indicator of atmospheric attenuation between heliostat and receiver. In this paper we will review historical and recent publications to show how visibility observations contain useful information for estimating attenuation loss in central receiver systems. We will also present a simple relationship that uses visibility observations to estimate heliostat to receiver attenuation for varying separation distances.

AB As we pursue efforts to lower the capital and installation costs of parabolic trough solar collectors, it is essential to maintain high optical performance. While there are many optical tools available to measure the reflector slope errors of parabolic trough solar collectors, there are few tools to measure the absorber alignment. A new method is presented here to measure the absorber alignment in two dimensions to within 0.5 cm. The absorber alignment is measured using a digital camera and four photo grammetric targets. Physical contact with the receiver absorber or glass is not necessary. The alignment of the absorber is measured along its full length so that sagging of the absorber can be quantified with this technique. The resulting absorber alignment measurement provides critical information required to accurately determine the intercept factor of a collector

AB This paper investigates the possibility of using a post-industrial ceramic commercially called Cofalit as a promising, sustainable, and inexpensive ($10/ton) thermal energy storage material. This ceramic presents relevant properties to store thermal energy by means of sensible heat in the temperature range of concentrated solar power (CSP) plants from ambient temperature up to 1100 degrees C. In the present study, the compatibility of this ceramic was studied with two conventional heat transfer fluids: nitrate molten salts for medium-temperature applications (200 to 500 degrees C) and air for high-temperature applications (500 to 900 degrees C). The use of this ceramic in direct contact with the heat transfer fluid should significantly reduce the cost of thermal energy storage systems in CSP applications and help to achieve the U.S. Department of Energy's SunShot Initiative cost targets.

The quasi-steady-state formulation allows users to investigate energy and mass flows, operating temperatures, and pressure drops for geometries and solar field configurations of interest.
The model includes tools for heat loss calculation using either empirical polynomial heat loss curves as a function of steam temperature, ambient temperature, and wind velocity, or a detailed evacuated tube receiver heat loss model. Thermal losses are evaluated using a computationally efficient nodal approach, where the solar field and headers are discretized into multiple nodes where heat losses, thermal inertia, steam conditions (including pressure, temperature, enthalpy, etc.) are individually evaluated during each time step of the simulation.
This paper discusses the mathematical formulation for the solar field model and describes how the solar field is integrated with the other subsystem models, including the power cycle and optional auxiliary fossil system. Model results are also presented to demonstrate plant behavior in the various operating modes.

ID SOLAR RECEIVER; GENERATION; RADIATION; CLOUD
AB The concept of absorbing concentrated solar radiation volumetrically, rather than on a surface, is being researched by several groups with differing designs for high temperature solar receivers. The Small Particle Heat Exchange Receiver (SPHER), one such design, is a gas-cooled central receiver capable of producing pressurized air in excess of 1100 C designed to be directly integrated into a Brayton-cycle power block to generate electricity from solar thermal power. The unique heat transfer fluid used in the SPHER is a low-density suspension of carbon nano-particles (diameter similar to 200 nm) to absorb highly concentrated solar radiation directly in a gas stream, rather than on a fixed absorber like a tube or ceramic foam. The nano-particles are created on-demand by pyrolyzing a small flow of natural gas in an inert carrier gas just upstream of the receiver, and the particle stream is mixed with air prior to injection into the receiver. The receiver features a window (or multiple windows, depending on scale) on one end to allow concentrated sunlight into the receiver where it is absorbed by the gas-particle suspension prior to reaching the receiver walls. As they pass through the receiver the carbon nano-particles oxidize to CO2 resulting a clear gas stream ready to enter a downstream combustor or directly into the turbine. The amount of natural gas consumed or CO2 produced is miniscule (1-2%) compared to what would be produced if the natural gas were burned directly to power a gas turbine.
The idea of a SPHER, first proposed many years ago, has been tested on a kW scale by two different groups. In the new work, the engineering for a multi-MW SPHER is reported. An in-house Monte Carlo model of the radiation heat transfer in the gas-particle mixture has been developed and is coupled to FLUENT to perform the fluid dynamic calculations in the receiver. Particle properties (size distribution and complex index of refraction) are obtained experimentally from angular scattering and extinction measurements of natural gas pyrolysis in a lab-scale generator, and these are corroborated using image analysis of Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) pictures of particles captured on a filter. A numerical model of the particle generator has been created to allow for scale-up for a large receiver. We have also designed a new window for the receiver that will allow pressurized operation up to 10 bar with a 2 m diameter window. Recent progress on overcoming the engineering challenges in developing this receiver for a prototype test is reported.

AB Power tower concentrated solar plants have the potential to reach temperatures higher than those achievable by a parabolic trough plant. These higher temperatures allow for greater power cycle efficiencies and therefore make power towers an attractive option and a growing topic of research. One common design is to pump water through the tower such that it boils and returns to the power cycle as saturated or superheated vapor One option to increase power cycle efficiency for a direct steam system is to send the steam exiting the high pressure turbine through a committed reheat receiver section and then through a low pressure turbine.
This paper details a new semi-empirical, first-principles thermal model of a direct steam receiver consisting of dedicated boiler superheater and reheater sections. This thermal model integrated with a regression power cycle model and a heliostat field model in SAM - is used to simulate the pe7formance of a direct steam power tower concentrated solar plant and the analysis results are presented.(1)

AB Pyromark 2500 is a silicone-based high-temperature paint that has been used on central receivers to increase solar absorptance. The cost, application, curing methods, radiative properties, and absorber efficiency of Pyromark 2500 are presented in this paper for use as a baseline for comparison to high-temperature solar selective absorber coatings currently being developed. The directional solar absorptance was calculated from directional spectral absorptance data, and values for pristine samples of Pyromark 2500 were as high as 0.96 - 0.97 at near normal incidence angles. At higher irradiance angles (>40 degrees - 60 degrees), the solar absorptance decreased. The total hemispherical emittance of Pyromark 2500 was calculated from spectral directional emittance data measured at room temperature and 600 degrees C. The total hemispherical emittance values ranged from similar to 0.80 - 0.89 at surface temperatures ranging from 100 degrees C - 1,000 degrees C. The aging and degradation of Pyromark 2500 with exposure at elevated temperatures were also examined. Previous tests showed that solar receiver panels had to be repainted after three years due to a decrease in solar absorptance to 0.88 at the Solar One central receiver pilot plant. Laboratory studies also showed that exposure of Pyromark 2500 at high temperatures (750 degrees C and higher) resulted in significant decreases in solar absorptance within a few days. However, at 650 degrees C and below, the solar absorptance did not decrease appreciably after several thousand hours of testing. Finally, the absorber efficiency of Pyromark 2500 was determined as a function of temperature and irradiance using the calculated solar absorptance and emittance values presented in this paper.

DE Global Solar Insolation Project; GSIP; Global Horizontal Irradiance; GHI
AB The purpose of this study is two-fold: 1) To examine the performance of the Global Solar Insolation Project (GSIP) physics-based model in characterizing global horizontal solar radiation across the United States by comparing to the ground measured data, and 2) to examine improvements of the GSIP data to address temporal and spatial variations. The study enumerates and examines the spatial and temporal limitations of the GSIP model. Most comparisons demonstrate relatively good statistical agreement. However, the methodology used in the satellite model to distinguish microclimate conditions presents significant challenges, and the model requires refinement in addressing aerosol estimates, water vapor estimates, and clear sky optical properties. Satellite derived datasets are only available at half-hour intervals. Surface measurement can easily be made at temporal resolution in the order of seconds. Therefore intra-hour variability, an important quantity for understanding how power production in power plants will vary, cannot be directly derived from satellites. This paper illustrates how intra-hour variability in ground measurements cannot be captured by the satellite based datasets. We also discuss the potential for improved next-generation geostationary satellite data to improve the accuracy of surface radiation estimates.

AB The collector accuracy requirements for parabolic trough systems are a function of the concentrator and receiver geometry. As the current trend is to use larger trough designs the need for higher accuracy is generally more important. Concentrating solar power (CSP) companies developing and deploying collectors need to meet stringent optical performance requirements and thus require accurate surface characterization instruments to validate that performance. All reflective characterization processes are sensitive to the instrument resolution, experimental setup, data fitting process, and analysis. Small changes in any of these factors can impact the estimated optical performance. It is desirable to have total local surface measurement uncertainties less than 0.5 milliradians (mrad) for a parabolic trough reflector and many instruments are capable of achieving this. Most surface characterization instruments perform a fitting process on measured data that yields a best fit description of the collector surface using some sort of polynomial. Because of this relationship it is desirable to have a robust fitting process. The type and order of the fitted polynomial and fitting process are the two major contributors to describing a facet's surface based on the measured data. The order of the polynomial can increase or decrease the accuracy of surface description relative to the true surface. This is a function of the existing aberrations in the facet and the surface naturally described by the polynomial. An accurate description of a surface is typically obtained by performing a least squares fit on measured surface data relative to the polynomial. The best analytical description of the surface is achieved when residual errors relative to the polynomial are minimized. The difference between measured data and the best fit description is completed using an iterative process. However, not all surface imperfections on a single reflector can be accurately described with a polynomial as an exact mathematical description of the surface can never be truly achieved. Local positional errors exist in isolated areas of a facet cannot always be fit accurately. The sensitivity in the best fit description of the surface and the surface resulting from the fitting process using higher order polynomials will be discussed in this paper. The change in calculated facet location and surface slope are compared to determine the sensitivity of the process. The results are then used to calculate the intercept factor using ray tracing and estimate the sensitivity in this calculated performance metric.

AB The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Performance Test Codes (PTCs) have provided the power industry with the premier source of guidance for conducting and reporting performance tests of their evolving base technologies of power producing plants and supporting components. With an overwhelming push for renewable energy in recent years, ASME PTCs are in the development of similar standards for the testing of concentrating solar thermal technologies based power plants by the formation of a committee to develop "PTC 52, Performance Test Code on Concentrated Solar Plants", on July 2009.
The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Sun Shot Initiative goal is to reduce costs and eliminate market barriers to make large-scale solar energy systems cost-competitive with other forms of energy by the end of the decade. The ASME PTC-52 similarly removes critical barriers hindering deployment and speeds the implementation of concentrating solar power technologies by reducing commercial risk by facilitating performance testing procedures with quantified uncertainty. As with any commercialization of power producing technologies, clearly defining risk and providing methods to mitigate those risks are essential in providing the confidence necessary to secure investment funding. The traditional power market accomplishes this by citation of codes and standards in contracts; specifically ASME PTCs which supply commercially accepted guidelines and technical standards for performance testing to validate the guarantees of the project (Power Output, Heat Rate, Efficiency, etc.). Thus providing the parties to a power project with the tools they need to ensure that the planned project performance was met and the proper transfer of funds are accomplished. To enable solar energy systems to be fully embraced by the power industry, they must have similar codes and standards to mitigate commercial risks associated with contractual acceptance testing. The ASME PTC 52 will provide these standard testing methods to validate Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) systems performance guarantees with confidence.
This paper will present the affect that solar resource variability and measurement accuracies have on concentrating solar field performance uncertainty based on calculation methods like those used for conventional fossil power plants. Measurement practices and methods will be discussed to mitigate that uncertainty. These uncertainty values will be correlated to the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE), and LCOE sensitivities will be derived. The results quantify the impact of resource variability during testing, test duration and sampling rate to annual performance calculation. These uncertainties will be further associated with costs and risks based on typical technology performance guarantees. The paper will also discuss how the development of standard measurements and calculation methods help to produce lower uncertainty associated with the overall plant result, which is already being accomplished by ASME PTCs in conventional power generation.

AB In order for Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) to become a significant contributor to utility scale baseload power, dramatic reductions in cost and increases in performance must be achieved. 3M Company and Gossamer Space Frames have developed advanced collectors that are centered on a step-change in solar technology aimed at transforming the economics and industrialization of CSP. In particular, we focus on mirror film based reflective materials, stiff and shape accurate panel constructions, and lightweight and accurate space frames. These technology elements have been combined into a new parabolic collector design with an aperture of 7.3 m and length of 12 m. The geometric concentration ratio of the design is 103, far exceeding current designs. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has measured an intercept factor exceeding 99% on the subject collector fielded at SEGS II (Daggett, CA). The successful implementation of this technology platform has implications for new solar collector designs for both point and line focus systems.

AB It is broadly accepted that current energy systems should become more sustainable in both a global and local context. However, setting common goals and shared objectives and determining the appropriate means by which to get there is the subject of heavy debate. Therefore, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the German Association of Engineers (VDI) initiated a joint project aimed at providing a young engineers' perspective to the global energy conversation. The young engineer project teams set a common goal of assembling a completely sustainable energy system for the U.S. and Germany by 2050. This includes not only the electricity market, but the overall energy system. Based on the current global energy paradigm, a completely sustainable energy system seems very ambitious. However, multiple analyses show that this path is possible and would in the medium to long run not only be desirable, but also competitive in the market. This future 'energy puzzle' consists of many important pieces, and the overall picture must be shaped by an overarching strategy of sustainability. Besides the many detailed pieces, four main critical issues must be addressed by engineers, politicians and everybody else alike. These challenges are:
1) Rational use of energy:
This uncomfortable topic is rather unappealing to communicate, but is a key issue to reduce energy demand and to meet the potentials of renewable energy carriers.
ii) Balancing of electricity demand and generation:
This is a challenge to the electricity markets and infrastructures that are currently designed for base-load, mainly fossil power plants. The overall mix of renewable energy generation, storage technologies, grid infrastructure, and power electronics will decide how efficient and reliable a future energy system will be.
iii) Cost efficiency and competitiveness:
It is a prerequisite for industrialized countries to stay competitive and to establish RE in the market. Developing economic technologies while at the same time establishing a strong RE market is the secret of success.
iv) Acceptance of the system and its consequences:
The best energy strategy cannot be realized without broad public acceptance for it. Therefore, the understanding of the energy technologies and an objective discussion must be promoted - without old fashioned emotionalizing of certain risks.
The paper will present details on the four mentioned aspects, compare the situations between the U.S. and Germany, and propose solutions for appropriate political frame conditions to achieve a sustainable energy system.

analysis
AB The United States (U.S.) Department of Energy (DOE)'s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is spearheading a program with industry to deploy and independently monitor five kilowatt-electric (kWe) combined heat and power (CHP) fuel cell systems (FCSs) in light commercial buildings. This publication discusses results from PNNL's research efforts to independently evaluate manufacturer-stated engineering, economic, and environmental performance of these CHP FCSs at installation sites. The analysis was done by developing parameters for economic comparison of CHP installations. Key thermodynamic terms are first defined, followed by an economic analysis using both a standard accounting approach and a management accounting approach. Key economic and environmental performance parameters are evaluated, including (1) the average per unit cost of the CHP FCSs per unit of power, (2) the average per unit cost of the CHP FCSs per unit of energy, (3) the change in greenhouse gas (GHG) and air pollution emissions with a switch from conventional power plants and furnaces to CHP FCSs; (4) the change in GHG mitigation costs from the switch; and (5) the change in human health costs related to air pollution.
CHP FCS heat utilization is expected to be less than 100% at several installation sites. Specifically at six of the installation sites, during periods of minimum building heat demand (i.e. summer season), the average in-use CHP FCS heat recovery efficiency based on the higher heating value of natural gas is expected to be only 24.4%.
From the power perspective, the average per unit cost of electrical power is estimated to span a range from $15 19,000/kilowatt-electric (kWe) (depending on site-specific changes in installation, fuel, and other costs), while the average per unit cost of electrical and heat recovery power varies between $7,000 and $9,000/kW. From the energy perspective, the average per unit cost of electrical energy ranges from $0.38 to $0.46/kilowatt-hour-electric (kWhe), while the average per unit cost per unit of electrical and heat recovery energy varies from $0.18 to $0.23/kWh. These values are calculated from engineering and economic performance data provided by the manufacturer (not independently measured data). The GHG emissions were estimated to decrease by one-third by shifting from a conventional energy system to a CHP FCS system. The GHG mitigation costs were also proportional to the changes in the GHG gas emissions. Human health costs were estimated to decrease significantly with a switch from a conventional system to a CHP FCS system.
A unique contribution of this paper, reported for the first time here, is the derivation of the per unit cost of power and energy for a CHP device from both standard and management accounting perspectives. These expressions are shown in Eq. (21) and Eq. (31) for power, and in Eq. (24) and Eq. (34) for energy. This derivation shows that the average per. unit cost of power is equal to the average per unit cost of electric power applying a management accounting approach to this latter calculation. This term is also equal to the average per unit cost of heat recovery power applying a management accounting approach. A similar set of relations hold for the average per unit cost of energy. These derivations underscore the value of using Eq. (21) for economic analyses to represent the average per unit cost of electrical power, heat recovery power, or both, and using and Eq. (24) for energy.

AB Gas and air-side heat transfer is ubiquitous throughout many technological sectors, including HVAC (heating, ventilating, and air conditioning) systems, thermo-electric power generators and coolers, renewable energy, electronics and vehicle cooling, and forced-draft cooling in the petrochemical and power industries. The poor thermal conductivity and low heat capacity of air causes air-side heat transfer to typically dominate heat transfer resistance even with the use of extended area structures. In this paper, we report design, analysis, cost modeling, fabrication, and performance characterization of micro-honeycombs for gas-side heat transfer augmentation in thermoelectric (TE) cooling and power systems. Semi-empirical model aided by experimental validation was undertaken to characterize fluid flow and heat transfer parameters. We explored a variety of polygonal shapes to optimize the duct shape for air-side heat transfer enhancement. Predictions using rectangular micro-honeycomb heat exchangers, among other polygonal shapes, suggest that these classes of geometries are able to provide augmented heat transfer performance in high-temperature energy recovery streams and low-temperature cooling streams. Based on insight gained from theoretical models, rectangular micro-honeycomb heat exchangers that can deliver high performance were fabricated and tested. High- and low-cost manufacturing prototype designs with different thermal performance expectations were fabricated to explore the cost-performance design domain. Simple metrics were developed to correlate heat transfer performance with heat exchanger cost and weight and define optimum design points. The merits of the proposed air-side heat transfer augmentation approach are also discussed within the context of relevant thermoelectric power and cooling systems.

AB As the world population increases, so does their demand for energy. The demand of energy is mainly in the form of electricity with an origin primarily from fossil fuels. Since solar photovoltaic technology has the ability to convert solar energy directly into electricity, this technology has become one of the most popular alternatives at all scales for substitution of technology that uses fossil fuels. However, a limiting factor for the massive use solar photovoltaic technology is economics. A key component in the overall strategy to overcome the economic limitation of solar photovoltaic technology is the system size optimization at the design stage. At the design stage, data related to the solar energy availability, energy demand, and equipment performance is used to determine the size of the equipment while being able to satisfy the targeted peak energy demand. In general, a common engineering safety factor is used to ensure the system to meet the energy demand during its life cycle operation. The sizing procedure of solar photovoltaic systems can be further improved to be more reliable and economical when the uncertainty in the design process is considered. This paper presents a framework to perform an uncertainty analysis that can lead to improve sizing process for solar photovoltaic arrays. Through results from the application of the proposed approach, a reliable interval for the size of the photovoltaic array is found that can lead to more accurate and economic design compared to the use of common engineering safety factors.

AB Clouds, aerosols, water vapor and other atmospheric constituents influence solar energy reaching the earth's surface. Each of these atmospheric constituents has it's own inherent scale of temporal and spatial variability and they in turn influence the variability in the amount of solar radiation reaching the earth's surface. This combined influence of the atmospheric constituents and their separate variability characteristics makes solar variability modeling a complicated task.
Output from photovoltaic (PV) power plants is dependent on the amount of solar energy reaching the surface. Therefore variability in solar radiation results in variability in PV plant output. The issue of variability in PV plant output has become important in the last couple of years as utility scale PV plants go online and increase in size. Understanding variability in PV plant output requires an understanding of (a) the spatial and temporal variability of solar radiation; (b) the influence of this solar variability on PV plant output.
The goal of this paper is to understand what temporal and spatial scales of variability in Global Horizontal Radiation (GM) are important to a PV plants and what measurements are needed to be able to characterize them. As solar radiation measuring instruments are point receivers it is important to understand how those measurements translate to energy received over a larger spatial extent. Also of importance is the temporal nature of variability characterized not at a single point on the ground but over large spatial areas.
In this research we use high temporal and spatial resolution measurements from multiple time synchronized solar radiation sensors to create solar radiation fields at various spatial and temporal scales using a wide range of interpolation techniques. These solar fields are then used to create plant power output for various size PV plants. As various interpolation schemes can produce different distributions we investigate the impact of interpolation schemes on Gill and power output distribution. While power output from PV plants is an important quantity the temporal variability of power is a matter of concern to utilities. In this paper we show how PV plant output varies across different time scales.

AB Commercial buildings have a significant impact on energy and the environment, utilizing more than 18% of the total primary energy consumption in the United States. Analyzing commercial building electrical demand profiles is crucial to understanding the relationships between buildings and the electrical grid for assessment of supply-demand interaction issues and potential; of particular importance are supply- or demand-side energy storage assets and the value they bring to various stakeholders in the Smart Grid context. This research develops and applies a systematic analysis framework to a Department of Energy (DOE) commercial building database containing electrical demand profiles representing the United States commercial building stock as specified by the 2003 Commercial Buildings Consumption Survey (CBECS) and as modeled in the EnergyPlus building energy simulation tool. The analysis procedure relies on three primary steps: I) discrete wavelet transformation of the electrical demand profiles, 2) energy and entropy feature extraction from the wavelet scales, and 3) Bayesian probabilistic hierarchical clustering of the features to classify the buildings in terms of similar patterns of electrical demand. The process yields a categorized and more manageable set of representative electrical demand profiles, inference of the characteristics influencing supply-demand interactions, and a test bed for quantifying the impact of applying energy storage technologies.

AB Energy storage has recently attracted significant interest as an enabling technology for integrating stochastic, variable renewable power into the electric grid. To meet the renewable portfolio standards targets imposed by 29 U.S. states and the District of Columbia, electricity production from wind technology has increased significantly. At the same time, wind turbines, like many renewables, produce power in a manner that is stochastic, variable, and non-dispatchable. These attributes introduce challenges to generation scheduling and the provision of ancillary services. To study the impacts of the stochastic variability of wind on regional grid operation and the role that energy storage could play to mitigate these impacts, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) has developed a series of linked, complex techno-economic-environmental models to address two key questions: A) What are the future expanded balancing requirements necessary to accommodate enhanced wind turbine capacity, so as to meet the renewable portfolio standards in 2020? Specific analyses are conducted for the four North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) western subregions. B) What are the most cost-effective technological solutions for providing either fast ramping generation or energy storage to serve these balancing requirements?
PNNL applied a stochastic approach to assess the future, expanded balancing requirements for the four western subregions with high wind penetration in 2020. The estimated balancing requirements are quantified for four subregions: Arizona-New Mexico-Southern Nevada (AZ-NM-SNV), California-Mexico (CA-MX), Northwest Power Pool (NWPP), and Rocky Mountain Power Pool (RMPP). Model results indicate that the new balancing requirements will span a spectrum of frequencies, from minute-to-minute variability (intra-hour balancing) to those indicating cycles over several hours (inter-hour balancing). The sharp ramp rates in the intra-hour balancing are of significant concern to grid operators. Consequently, this study focuses on analyzing the intrahour balancing needs.
A detailed, life-cycle cost (LCC) modeling effort was used to assess the cost competitiveness of different technologies to address the future intra-hour balancing requirements. Technological solutions considered include combustion turbines, sodium sulfur (NaS) batteries, lithium ion (Li-ion) batteries, pumped-hydro energy storage (PHES), compressed air energy storage (CABS), flywheels, redox flow batteries, and demand response (DR). Hybrid concepts were also evaluated. For each technology, distinct power and energy capacity requirements are estimated. LCC results for the sole application of intra-hour balancing indicate that the most cost competitive technologies include Na-S batteries, flywheels, and Li-ion assuming future cost reductions. Demand response using smart charging strategies was found to also be cost-competitive with natural gas combustion turbines. This finding is consistent among the four subregions and is generally applicable to other regions.

AB "Sunshine to Petrol" is a grand-challenge research project at Sandia National Laboratories with the objective of creating a technology for producing feedstocks for making liquid fuels by splitting carbon dioxide (and water) using concentrated solar energy [1]. A reactor-level performance model is described for computing the solar-driven thermochemical splitting of carbon dioxide via a two-step metal-oxide cycle. The model simulates the thermochemical performance of the Counter-Rotating-Ring Receiver/Reactor/Recuperator (CR5). The numerical model for computing the reactor thermochemical performance is formulated as a system of coupled first-order ordinary differential equations describing the energy and mass transfer within each reactive ring and radiative energy transfer between adjacent rings. In this formulation, each of the counter-rotating rings is treated in a one-dimensional sense in the circumferential direction; supporting circumferential temperature and species gradients with assumed negligible gradients in both the radial and axial directions. The model includes radiative heat transfer between adjacent counter-rotating rings, variations in the incident solar flux distribution, heat losses to the reactor housing, and energy of reaction associated with the reduction and oxidation reactions. An overview of the physics included in this first-generation numerical model will be presented. Preliminary results include the circumferential distributions of temperature and species within each of the reactive rings. The computed overall chemical conversion efficiency will be presented for a range of design and operating parameters; including ring speed, carrier ring mass, reactive material loading, radiative emissivity, and differing incident flux distributions.

AB In an effort towards predicting the combustion behavior of a new fuel in a conventional diesel engine, Hydrotreated Renewable Jet (HRJ) fuel was first run in a military diesel engine across the entire speed-load operating range. Ignition delay was characterized for this fuel at each operating condition. Next, a HRJ surrogate fuel was developed in order to predict the combustion performance of this new renewable fuel. A chemical ignition delay was then predicted across the speed-load range using a detailed chemical kinetic mechanism model based on an 8-component surrogate representative of HRJ. The modeling suggests that rich fuel-air parcels developed from the diesel spray are the first to ignite. The chemical ignition delay results also show decreasing ignition delays with increasing engine load and speed just as shown by the empirical data. A moderate difference between the total and chemical ignition delays was then characterized as a physical delay period which scales inversely with engine speed. The approach used in this study suggests that the ignition delay and thus start of combustion may be predicted with reasonable accuracy allowing for the analytical assessment of the acceptability of a new fuel in a conventional engine.

AB Reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) combustion makes use of in-cylinder blending of two fuels with differing reactivity to tailor the reactivity of the fuel charge for improved control of the combustion process. This approach has been shown in simulations and engine experiments to have the potential for high efficiency with very low NOx and particulate matter (PM) emissions. Previous multi-cylinder RCCI experiments have been completed to understand the potential of this approach under more real-world conditions in a light-duty multi-cylinder engine (MCE) with production viable hardware. MCE experiments explored fuel injection strategy, dilution levels, piston geometry (including compression ratio), and fuel properties. Many renewable fuels have unique properties which enable expanded operation of advanced combustion methods for higher engine efficiency and lower energy requirements for emissions control devices. This study investigates the effect that renewable gasoline and diesel fuel replacements have on the load-expansion of RCCI, performance and emissions. The study focuses on ethanol blends for replacement of gasoline as the port-injected fuel (PEI) and biodiesel blends as the replacement for the direct injected (DI) fuel.

AB Quasi-dimensional models are widely used in the design, development and analyses of automotive engines. Various phenomenological and empirical relations are used in these models to reduce the computational load compared to multidimensional models. These quasi-dimensional models have also been used to calculate NOx, soot and HCs using various reduced chemistry/simplified models. The extended Zeldovich mechanism is widely used for finite-rate NOx computations in these quasi-dimensional models. However, there are several simplifying assumptions in the rate equation used for the NOx computations. This paper compares the traditional method of finite-rate NOx computations with full finite-rate chemistry without the simplifying assumptions used in the former method. NOx formation in a stationary engine is studied using a single zone and two-zone (burned and unburned zone) using a 6-reaction, 7-species model. A detailed comparison of the two methods of NO computation is presented Analyses of the temporal variation of NO predicted using these two approaches is also presented.

The ability of this approach to use cell sizes much smaller than the nozzle diameter is demonstrated. Grid convergence of key parameters is verified for non-evaporating, evaporating, and reacting spray cases using cell sizes down to 1/32 mm. Grid settings are recommended that optimize the accuracy/runtime tradeoff for RANS-based spray simulations.

AB A skeletal mechanism with 117 species and 472 reactions for a Diesel surrogate i.e., n-heptane, was developed. The detailed mechanism for n-heptane created by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) was employed as the starting mechanism. The detailed mechanism was then reduced with an enhancement of the Direct Relation Graph (DRG) technique called Parallel DRG-with Error Propagation and Sensitivity Analysis (PDRGEPSA). The reduction was performed for pressures from 20 to 80 atm, equivalence ratios from 0.5 to 2, and an initial temperature range of 600-1200 K, covering the compression ignition (CI) engine conditions. Extensive validations were performed against both 0-D simulations with the detailed mechanism and experimental data for spatially homogeneous systems. In order to perform three-dimensional turbulent spray-combustion and engine simulations, the mechanism was integrated with the multi-zone model in the CONVERGE CFD software to accelerate the calculation of detailed chemical kinetics. The Engine Combustion Network (ECN) data from Sandia National Laboratory was used for validation purposes along with single-cylinder Caterpillar engine data. The skeletal mechanism was able to predict various combustion characteristics accurately such as ignition delay and flame lift-off length (LOL) under different ambient conditions. The performance of the multi-zone solver with respect to the full cell-by-cell chemistry solver (SAGE) is compared for the Caterpillar engine simulation and a good match is obtained with significant speed-up of computational time for the multi-zone solver.

AB This paper presents a detailed exergy analysis of homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engines, including a crank-angle resolved breakdown of mixture exergy and exergy destruction. Exergy analysis is applied to a multi-zone HCCI simulation including detailed chemical kinetics. The HCCI simulation is validated against engine experiments for ethanol-fueled operation. The exergy analysis quantifies the relative. importance of different loss mechanisms within HCCI engines over a range of engine operating conditions. Specifically, four loss mechanisms are studied for their relative impact on exergy losses, including 1) the irreversible combustion process (16.4-21.5%), 2) physical exergy lost to exhaust gases (12.0-18.7%), 3) heat losses (3.9-17.1%), and 4) chemical exergy lost to incomplete combustion (4.7-37.8%). The trends in each loss mechanism are studied in relation to changes in intake pressure, equivalence ratio, and engine speed as these parameters are directly used to vary engine power output. This exergy analysis methodology is proposed as a tool to inform research and design processes, particularly by identifying the relative importance of each loss mechanism in determining engine operating efficiency.

AB While the transportation field is mostly characterized by the use of liquid fuels, gaseous fuels like hydrogen and natural gas have shown high thermal efficiency and low exhaust emissions when used in internal combustion engines (ICEs). In particular, high-pressure direct injection of a gaseous fuel within the cylinder overcomes the loss of volumetric efficiency and allows stratifying the mixture around the spark plug at the ignition time. Direct injection and mixture stratification can extend the lean flammability limit and improve efficiency and emissions of ICEs.
Compared to liquid sprays, the phenomena involved in the evolution of gaseous jets are less complex to understand and model. Nevertheless, the numerical simulation of a high-pressure gas jet is not a simple task. At high injection pressure, immediately downstream of the nozzle exit the flow is supersonic, the gas is under-expanded, and a large series of shocks occurs due to the effect of compressibility. To simulate and capture these phenomena, grid resolution, computational time-step, discretization scheme, and turbulence model need to be properly set. .
The research group on hydrogen ICEs at Argonne National Laboratory has been extensively working on validating numerical results on gaseous direct injection and mixture formation against PIV and PLIF data from an optically accessible engine. While a good general agreement was observed, simulations still could not perfectly predict the mixing of fuel with the surrounding air, which sometimes led to significant under-prediction of fuel dispersion. The challenge is to correctly describe the gas dynamic phenomena of under-expanded gas jets. To this aim, x-ray radiography was performed at the Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne to provide high-detail data of the mass distribution within a high-pressure gas jet, with the main focus on the under-expanded region.
In this paper, the numerical simulation of high-pressure (100 bar) injection of argon in a cylindrical chamber is performed using the computational fluid dynamic (CFD) solver Fluent. Numerical results of jet penetration and mass distribution are compared with x-ray data. The simplest nozzle geometry, consisting of one hole with a diameter of 1 mm directed along the injector axis, is chosen as a canonical case for modeling validation. A sector (900) mesh, with high resolution in the under-expanded region, is used and the assumption of symmetry is made. Results show good agreement between CM and x-ray data. Gas dynamics and mass distribution within the jet are well predicted by numerical simulations.

AB There has been an extensive worldwide search for alternate fuels that fit with the existing infrastructure and would thus displace fossil-based resources. In metabolic engineering work at Argonne National Laboratory, strains of fuel have been designed that can be produced in large quantities by photosynthetic bacteria, eventually producing a heavy alcohol called phytol (C20H40O). Phytol's physical and chemical properties (cetane number; heat of combustion, heat of vaporization, density, surface tension, vapor pressure, etc.) correspond in magnitude to those of diesel fuel, suggesting that phytol might be a good blending agent in compression ignition (CI) engine applications. The main reason for this study was to investigate the feasibility of using phytol as a blending agent with diesel; this was done by comparing the performance and emission characteristics of different blends of phytol (5%, 10%, 20% by volume) with diesel. The experimental research was performed on a single-cylinder engine under conventional operating conditions. Since phytol's viscosity is much higher than that of diesel, higher-injection-pressure cases were investigated to ensure the delivery of fuel into the combustion chamber was sufficient. The influence of the fuel's chemical composition on performance and emission characteristics was captured by doing an injection timing sweep. Combustion characteristics as shown in the cylinder pressure trace were comparable for the diesel and all the blends of phytol at each of the injection timings. The 5% and 10% blends show lower CO and similar NOx values. However, the 20% blend shows higher NOx and CO emissions, indicating that the chemical and physical properties have been altered substantially at this higher percentage. The combustion event was depicted by performing high-speed natural luminosity imaging using endoscopy. This revealed that the higher in-cylinder temperatures for the 20% blend are the cause for its higher NOx emissions. In addition, three-dimensional simulations of transient, turbulent nozzle flow were performed to compare the injection and cavitation characteristics of phytol and its blends. Specifically, area and discharge coefficients and mass flow rates of diesel and phytol blends were compared under corresponding engine operating conditions. The conclusion is that phytol may be a suitable blending agent with diesel fuel for CI applications.

AB Conventional combustion techniques struggle to meet the current emissions' regulations while retaining high engine efficiency. Specifically in automotive diesel engines, oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and particulate matter (PM) emissions have limited the utilization of diesel fuel in compression ignition engines. By comparison, throttled, knock-limited conventional gasoline operated SI engines tend not to be fuel efficient. Advanced combustion systems that simultaneously address PM and NOx while retaining the high efficiency of modern diesel engines, are being developed around the globe [1]. One of the most difficult problems in the area of advanced combustion technology development is the control of combustion initiation [2] and retaining power density [3]. During the past several years, significant progress has been accomplished in reducing emissions of NOx and PM through strategies such as LTC/HCCI/PCCI/PPCI and other advanced combustion processes; however control of ignition and improving power density has suffered to some degree advanced combustion engines tend to be limited to the 10 bar BMEP range and under [4].
Experimental investigations have been carried out on a light duty, DI, multi cylinder, diesel automotive engine. The engine is operated in low temperature combustion technology with 87 RON (Research Octane Number) fuel [7]. Using an Ignition Quality Test (IQT) device, the equivalent Cetane Number (CN) was measured to be 25. In the present work, various EGR rates are examined to determine the effect on the combustion, emissions and performance. Experiments were conducted at three different engine load/speed combinations that are part of General Motors' reference points for vehicle operation. To reduce the complexity, boost pressure and injection pressure and timing were kept constant while EGR percentage and intake temperature were used as parameters in this study. The intake temperature was not truly independent, as it trended with EGR level, but based upon the boost level and the available EGR cooling, Intake Air Temperature (IAT) was kept in the range of 40-80 deg C. Additional cooling capacity will be added in future work in an effort to keep TAT more consistent. EGR rates have a detrimental effect on engine efficiencies at lower load while it appears to have little effect on efficiency at higher loads. A more significant effect at very low load appears to be higher intake temperatures (hot EGR) as opposed to the very slight decrease in oxygen concentration.

AB Continued interest in kinetically-modulated combustion regimes, such as HCCI and PCCI, poses a significant challenge in controlling the ignition timing due to the lack of direct control of combustion phasing hardware available in traditional SI and CI engines. Chemical kinetic mechanisms, validated based on fundamental data from experiments like rapid compression machines and shock tubes, offer reasonably accurate predictions of ignition timing; however utilizing these requires high computational cost making them impractical for use in engine control schemes. Empirically-derived correlations offer faster control, but are generally not valid beyond the narrow range of conditions over which they were derived.
This study discusses initial work in the development of an ignition correlation based on a detailed chemical kinetic mechanism for three component gasoline surrogate, composed of n-heptane, iso-octane and toluene, or toluene reference fuel (TRF). Simulations are conducted over a wide range of conditions including temperature, pressure, equivalence ratio and dilution for a range of tri-component blends in order to produce ignition delay time and investigate trends in ignition as pressure, equivalence ratio, temperature and fuel reactivity are varied. A modified, Arrhenius-based power law formulation will be used in a future study to fit the computed ignition delay times.

AB Measuring the rate of injection of a common-rail injector is one of the first steps for diesel engine development. At the same time, this information is of prime interest for engine research and modeling as it drives spray development and mixing. On the other hand, the widely used long-tube method provides results that are neither straightforward, nor fully understood. This study performed on a 0.09 mm axially drilled single-hole nozzle is part of the Engine Combustion Network (ECN) and aims at analyzing these features from an acoustic point of view to separate their impact on the real injection process and on the results recorded by the experimental devices. Several tests have been carried out for this study including rate of injection and momentum, X-ray phase-contrast of the injector and needle motion or injector displacement. The acoustic analysis revealed that these fluctuations found their origin in the sac of the injector and that they were the results of an interaction between the fluid in the chamber (generally gases) and the liquid fuel to be injected. It has been observed that the relatively high oscillations recorded by the long-tube method were mainly caused by a displacement of the injector itself while injecting. In addition, the results showed that these acoustic features also appear on the momentum flux of the spray which means that the real rate of injection should present such behavior

AB Toluene fuel-tracer laser-induced fluorescence is employed to quantitatively measure the equivalence ratio distributions in the cylinder of a light-duty diesel engine operating in a low-temperature, high-EGR, and early-injection operating mode. Measurements are made in a non-combusting environment at crank angles capturing the mixture preparation period: from the start-of-injection through the onset of high-temperature heat release. Three horizontal planes are considered: within the clearance volume, the bowl rim region, and the lower bowl. Swirl ratio and injection pressure are varied independently, and the impact of these parameters on the mixture distribution is correlated to the heat release rate and the engine-out emissions.
As the swirl ratio or injection pressure is increased, the amount of over-lean mixture in the upper central region of the combustion chamber, in the bowl rim region and above, also increases. Unexpectedly, increased injection pressure results in a greater quantity of over-rich mixture within the squish volume.

AB A 2009 Volkswagen Jetta was tested using a Portable Emissions Measurement System (PEMS) SemtechD emissions analyzer to determine when the emissions and fuel consumption will be the smallest in regards to startup vs. idle emissions. An idle time equivalent was calculated to determine when idle emissions became equal to startup emissions at four different ambient temperatures for a cold start. The mass of Total Hydrocarbons (THC) emitted limited the idle time equivalent to less than the startup time for all ambient temperatures. The temperature of the Catalytic Converter (CC) was monitored to determine how quickly the car cools down and therefore, how beneficial it is to turn the car off after a certain time period. For the temperature range tested, it was more beneficial for reduced emissions to turn off the car compared to idling by a factor of at least four. The data suggests a trend that idling would never be the best option; however, more testing needs to be done with a greater range of CC cool down temperatures to confirm this initial assessment.

AB Inner nozzle flow characteristics (e.g., cavitation, turbulence, injection velocity) are known to affect spray development and hence combustion and emissions. Our previous studies showed that petrodiesel and biodiesel (soybean-based fuels) had very different cavitation and turbulence characteristics, which caused differences in spray breakup, penetration, dispersion, etc. Specifically, the atomization characteristics of biodiesel were worse than those of diesel; they were a direct consequence of biodiesel's reduced cavitation and turbulence levels at the nozzle exit. In this study, the nozzle flow characteristics of biodiesel (from different feedstocks like tallow, soy, rapeseed, cuphea, and hydrotreated vegetable oil [HVO]) were compared with those of diesel. The first step was to obtain data on the physical properties of these fuels (e.g., their density, viscosity, surface tension, vapor pressure) at different temperatures. At full-needle open position, the cavitation contours scaled with the vapor pressure and viscosity; hence, methyl esters such as soy (SME), rapeseed (RME), and tallow (TME) exhibited less cavitation. The nozzle discharge coefficient, exit velocity, turbulent kinetic energy, and dissipation rate at the orifice exit were also compared for these fuels. Transient effects due to needle movement upon the inception of cavitation were studied. The effects of different needle-lift profiles (pertaining to various load conditions) on the nozzle flow development of these fuels were also characterized. This study also provides data on the critical boundary conditions for spray simulations from using the Kelvin Helmholtz-aerodynamic cavitation turbulence (KH-ACT) model, which accounts for cavitation and turbulence-induced breakup in addition to aerodynamic breakup.

AB The aim of this paper is to introduce the theory necessary to synthesize a new type of parallel flexure system that mimics the complex kinematics of serial flexure systems using a comprehensive library of geometric shapes that represent systems of screws. By displacing these shapes far from the system's motion stage, designers may rapidly visualize every parallel flexure concept that possesses degrees of freedom (DOFs), which approximate DOFs only achievable by serial flexure systems for small motions. In this way, designers may generate every flexure concept that utilizes the advantages of both parallel and serial flexure systems. This paper's impact is most significant to the design of precision motion stages, optical mounts, microscopy stages, and general purpose flexure bearings. Two case studies are provided to demonstrate the utility of this theory.

AB This paper demonstrates rigid-body replacement synthesis in the design a mechanism with known design objectives. The design of high-performance bicycle brakes is complicated by a variety of competing design objectives, including increased performance and low weight. But this challenge also provides a good case study to demonstrate the design of compliant mechanisms to replace traditional rigid-link mechanisms. This paper briefly reviews current road brake designs, demonstrates the use of rigid-body replacement synthesis to design a compliant mechanism, and illustrates the combination of compliant mechanism design tools. The resulting concept was generated from the modified dual-pivot brake design and is a partially compliant mechanism where one pin has the dual role of a joint and a mounting pin. The pseudo-rigid-body model, finite element analysis, and optimization algorithms are used to generate design dimensions, and designs are considered for both titanium and E-glass flexures. The resulting design has the potential of reducing the part count and overall weight while maintaining a performance similar to the benchmark.

AB This paper addresses the problem of finding the minimum time rendezvous point for a geographically distributed group of heterogeneous mobile robots. In contrast to the traditional treatment of the multi-agent rendezvous problem, focus is given mainly to the identification of the globally optimal solution rather than the behavior of the system based on a given control policy. Level sets are introduced as a tool to solve this problem by first computing an arrival time map for each robot, subject to speed, terrain, and dynamic constraints. The computation is parallelizable by requiring each agent to generate its own arrival time map. The arrival time maps can be easily combined to give the overall minimum time rendezvous point. Despite the apparent simplicity of this approach, it is capable of accommodating numerous complicating factors with minimal modification while simultaneously generating a target path trajectory for each robot through the state-space. Examples involving ground, sea, and air robots are used to illustrate the power of this technique.

ID INVERSION
AB Iwan models have had some exposure recently in modeling the nonlinear response of individual joints. This popularity can be ascribed to their mathematical simplicity, their versatility, and their ability to capture the important responses of mechanical joints under unidirectional loads. There is a lot of history to this category of model. Masing explored kinematic hardening of metals with a model consisting of ten Jenkins elements in series. Soon after, Prandtl explored the behavior of a continuous distribution of such elements. Ishlinskii explored the mathematical structure of such continuous distributions. Much more recently, Iwan demonstrated practical application of such models in capturing various sorts of metal plasticity.
Among the features that make such models interesting is a simple relationship between the asymptotic nature of the integral kernel at small values and the power-law relation between force amplitude and dissipation per cycle in harmonic loading. Iwan provided several differential equations for deducing the kernel from force-displacement relations. Segalman and Starr devised methods for deducing kernels from force-displacement curves of arbitrary Masing models. This is illustrated to generate a BPII model equivalent to the Ramberg-Osgood plasticity model. The Segalman-Starr relationship is used to find relationships among several other plasticity models.

AB Impact is a phenomenon that is ubiquitous in mechanical design; however, the modeling of impacts in complex systems is often a simplified, imprecise process. In many high fidelity finite element simulations, the number of elements required to accurately model the constitutive properties of an impact event is impractical. As a result, rigid body dynamics with approximate representations of the impact dynamics are commonly used. These approximations can include a constant coefficient of restitution, an artificially large penalty stiffness, or a single degree of freedom constitutive model for the impact dynamics that is specific to the type of materials involved (elastic, plastic, viscoelastic, etc.). In order to understand the effect of the impact model on the system's dynamics, simulations are conducted to investigate a single degree of freedom, two degrees of freedom, and continuous system each with rigid stops limiting the amplitude of vibration. Five contact models are considered: a coefficient of restitution method, a penalty stiffness method, two similar elastic-plastic constitutive models, and a dissimilar elastic-plastic constitutive model. Frequency sweeps show that simplified contact models can lead to incorrect assessments of the system's dynamics and stability. In the worst case, periodic behavior can be predicted in a chaotic regime. Additionally, the choice of contact model can significantly affect the prediction of wear and damage in the system.

AB Agricultural residues are the largest potential near term source of biomass for bioenergy production. Sustainable use of agricultural residues for bioenergy production requires consideration of the important role that residues play in maintaining soil health and productivity. Innovation equipment designs for residue harvesting systems can help economically collect agricultural residues while mitigating sustainability concerns. A key challenge in developing these equipment designs is establishing sustainable reside removal rates at the sub-field scale. Several previous analysis studies have developed methodologies and tools to estimate sustainable agricultural residue removal by considering environmental constraints including soil loss from wind and water erosion and soil organic carbon at field scale or larger but have not considered variation at the sub-field scale. This paper introduces a computational strategy to integrate data and models from multiple spatial scales to investigate how variability of soil, grade, and yield within an individual cornfield can impact sustainable residue removal for bioenergy production. This strategy includes the current modeling tools (i.e., RUSLE2, WEPS, and SCI), the existing data sources (i.e., SSURGO soils, CLIGEN, WINDGEN, and NRCS managements), and the available high fidelity spatial information (i.e., LiDAR slope and crop yield monitor output). Rather than using average or representative values for crop yields, soil characteristics, and slope for a field, county, or larger area, the modeling inputs are based on the same spatial scale as the precision farming data available. There are three challenges for developing an integrated model for sub-field variability of sustainable agricultural residue removal-the computational challenge of iteratively computing with 400 or more spatial points per hectare, the inclusion of geoprocessing tools, and the integration of data from different spatial scales. Using a representative field in Iowa, this paper demonstrates the computational algorithms used and establishes key design parameters for an innovative residue removal equipment design concept.

full range of 0% to 80% removal. One question that arises is whether a
smaller range of residue removal would be nearly as effective. Figure 3
provides perspective on the machine performance requirements for the
case study field by representing the spatially explicitly results in
Fig. 2e to a histogram that the percentage of field area and percentage
of sustainable agricultural residue collected at each of the modeled
removal rates. Figure 3 shows that the 45% removal rate covers the
largest percentage of the field and provides the largest percentage of
the residue. Figure 3 also shows that in Field 1, a residue harvester
with the capability to adjust between 40% 65% residue removals would
collect 91% of the sustainably removable residue mass.

FACT provides designers with a comprehensive library of geometric shapes, which may be used to visualize the regions wherein various microstructural elements can be placed for achieving desired bulk material properties. In this way, designers can rapidly consider and compare every microstructural concept that best satisfies the design requirements before selecting the final design. A screw-theory-based analytical tool is also provided in this paper to help designers calculate and optimize the thermal properties of microstructural concepts, which are generated using FACT As a case study, this tool is used to calculate the negative thermal expansion coefficient of a micro structural architecture synthesized using FACT

AB The primary objective of this work was to perform the thermal calculations to evaluate the Material Test Reactor (MTR) fuel assembly temperatures inside the SRS 70-Ton Cask loaded with various bundle powers. MTR fuel consists of HFBR, MURR, MIT, and NIST. The MURR fuel was used to develop a bounding case since it is the fuel with the highest heat load. The results will be provided for technical input for the SRS 70 Ton Cask Onsite Safety Assessment.
The calculation results show that for the SRS 70 ton dry cask with 2750 watts total heat source with a maximum bundle heat of 670 watts and 9 bundles of MURR bounding fuel, the highest fuel assembly temperatures are below about 263 degrees C. Maximum top surface temperature of the plastic cover is about 112 degrees C, much lower than its melting temperature 260 degrees C. For 12 bundles of MURR bounding fuel with 2750 watts total heat and a maximum fuel bundle of 482 watts, the highest fuel assembly temperatures are bounded by the 9 bundle case. The component temperatures of the cask were calculated by a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics approach. The modeling calculations were performed by considering daily-averaged solar heat flux.

AB This paper reports on a work in progress study measuring flashback, blow out, emissions and turbulent displacement flame speeds in a low swirl injector operated at elevated pressures and inlet temperatures with hydrogen and methane based fuels in an optically accessible combustor rig. The goal is to extend the knowledge of low-swirl flames at conditions relevant to gas turbine engines. Testing was conducted at pressures ranging from 3 to 6 atm, inlet temperatures from 290 to 600K, and inlet bulk velocities from 20 to 60 m/s for natural gas and a 90%/10% by volume hydrogen/methane blend. Blow out limits for natural gas were found to be independent of pressure and inlet temperature but weakly dependent on velocity. Flashback limits for hydrogen were found to be independent of inlet temperature but strongly dependent on velocity and pressure. Local displacement turbulent flame speeds for methane were measured and appear to coincide with atmospheric pressure data in the literature. NO emissions for both fuels were found to be exponentially dependent upon firing temperature, but emissions for the high hydrogen content flames were consistently higher than natural gas flames.

ID PREMIXED GAS-TURBINES
AB The low swirl injector (LSI) is a combustion technology being developed for low-emissions fuel-flexible gas turbines. The basic LSI configuration consists of an annulus of swirl vanes centered on a non-swirled channel, both of which allow for the passage of premixed reactants. LSIs are typically designed by following a general guidance of achieving a swirl number between 0.4 and 0.55. This paper aims to develop a more specific guideline by investigating the effects of varying geometry, i.e. vane angle, vane shape, and center channel size, on the LSI performance. A well-studied LSI provides a baseline for this investigation. Nine LSI variations from this baseline design have been evaluated. All LSI are tested with CH4 fuel at bulk flow velocity of 8 to 20 m/s firing into the open atmosphere. Performance metrics are the lean blowoff limit, the pressure drop, flowfield characteristics and emissions. Results show that the lean. blow-off limit and NO and CO emissions are insensitive to LSI geometric variations. The flowfields of seven LSIs exhibit self-similarity implying their turndown ranges are similar. Reducing the center channel size and/or the use of thin vanes instead of thickened vanes can reduce pressure drop across the LSI. Additionally, all ten LSI share a common feature in that 70% to 80% the premixture flows through the vane annulus. These findings are used to develop a more specific engineering guidelines for designing the LSI for gas turbines.

AB A systematic experimental study has been conducted to explore the heat transfer behavior of triangular and semicircular shaped pin-fin arrays as compared to the circular shaped pin-fin array, that serve as a baseline case. The main advantage of using triangular and semi-circular shaped pin-fin arrays will results in reduced component weight and potentially increases in heat transfer performance. Three staggered arrays with different inter-pin spacing in both transverse and longitudinal are explored in order to determine the optimal configuration for these three dimensional element. Both semi-circular and circular shaped pin-fin arrays are based on typical inter-pin spacing of 2.5 times the pin diameter. The channel geometry (width, W=76.2mm, height, E=25.4mm) simulates an internal cooling passage of wide aspect ratio (3:1) in a gas turbine airfoil. All pin-fin elements are fully bridged from one endwall to the opposite endwall. The Reynolds number, based on the hydraulic diameter of the unobstructed cross-section and the mean bulk velocity, ranges from 10,000 to 25,000. The heat transfer measurement employs a hybrid liquid crystal imaging technique, which combined one-dimensional, transient conduction model and lumped heat-capacitance model. Triangular pin-fin arrays produce the highest heat transfer enhancement, while the semi-circular pin-fin array yields the lowest heat transfer enhancement. Sharp edges at each triangular pin-fin generated more wake and turbulence, resulting in more mixing, induces greater heat transfer enhancement by approximately 10%-20% as compared to the typical pin-fins of circular cross-section. More uniform heat transfer is also observed on the endwall and neighboring pin-fins ill all triangular shaped pin-fm arrays. However, triangular pin-fin arrays give the highest pressure loss due to the largest induced form drag among all cases, while circular pin-fin array exhibits the lowest pressure loss.

AB Described in this paper is a study combining experiment and CFD simulation to explore the heat transfer characteristics of an internal cooling passage with different turning angles ranging from 70, 90 and 110 degrees. When adjacent passages are connected by a turn in a periodic fashion, the channel exhibits a "zig-zag" pattern, and hence the name. The test channel has a cross-section of 63.5mm by 25.4mm, corresponding to the aspect ratio of 2.5:1. This specific design with several turns will generate additional secondary vortices while providing longer flow path that allows coolant to remove a greater heat load before being discharged downstream. The computational study employs a commercially available CFD code, ANSYS CFX. As a significant finding, the numerical simulation suggested that the case with 110 degree turns has the best heat transfer performance. An experimental study thus is followed to investigate the detailed surface heat transfer distribution on the 110 degree case using the transient liquid crystal technique. The overall heat transfer coefficient characteristics except near the turning region are found to be comparable between the experimental and numerical simulation. Pressure loss in these test channels is several folds higher than that of straight smooth test channel due to the presence of turns; but is it significant lower than the limiting case with a 180-degree turn. The case with 70 degree turns has the highest pressure loss, while the case with 110 degree turns has the lowest pressure loss. Internal channels of zig-zag configurations might be a viable design for internal cooling of an airfoil mainbody or trailing edge while serving the purpose of bridging structures between the pressure and suction sides.

AB Computations were performed to study the, flow and heat transfer in a jet-impingement configuration in which there is no cross flow about the impinging cooling jets. The configuration consists of two sets of staggered arrays of holes with one array of holes for jets to impinge and cool a target wall with or without strategically positioned pin fins and a second array positioned midway relative to the first array of holes for the impinging jets to exit the configuration. For this configuration, the following parameter were investigated: distance between the jet-hole exit and the target surface to be cooled (H/d = 0.5, 1, 4), spacing between jets (S/d = 2, 4), and pin-fin height (H-p/d = 0, 1, 2) on the target surface, where d is the diameter of the holes in the arrays. Also, the jet-impingement velocity was varied to study a range Reynolds numbers based on the hole diameter d and the mean velocity of the jet in the hole (Re-d = 20,000, 40,000, and 60,000). For all cases studied, the temperature of the coolant air is 673 K; the wall to be cooled is maintained at 1,273 K; and the static pressure at the exit of the jet-impingement array is maintained at 25 bars. This computational study is based on steady RANS compressible Navier-Stokes with the shear-stress transport model for turbulence where integration is to the wall (i.e., wall functions were not used) and temperature-dependent properties are accounted for.

AB Researchers at West Virginia University are working with the U.S. Department of Energy, National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) to study the effects of particulate deposition on turbine film cooling in a high pressure and high temperature environment. To simulate deposition on the pressure side of an Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) turbine first stage vane, angled film-cooled test articles with thermal barrier coatings (TBC) are subjected to accelerated deposition at a pressure of approximately 4 atm and a gas temperature of 1100 degrees C. Two different test article geometries were designed, with angles of 10 degrees and 20 degrees to the mainstream flow. Both geometries have straight-cooling holes oriented at a 30 degrees angle to the hot-side surface. A high pressure seeding system was used to generate a particulate concentration of approximately 33.3 ppmw. Particle concentrations of 0.02 ppmw exist in the IGCC hot gas path. An accelerated simulation method was developed to simulate deposition that would occur in 10000 hr of engine operation. Preliminary tests were performed at 4 atm and 1100 degrees C to validate the deposition process. The results showed more deposition on the 20 degrees test article than the 10 degrees test articles; however no substantial deposition developed on either test article. A lumped mass analysis showed that the fly ash particles dropped below the theoretical sticking temperature as they approached the test article. Deposition was analyzed non-destructively through visual observation and scanning with a scanning laser microscope. Based on the initial test run results, a detailed plan was created to increase the operating temperature of the rig and allow two 3-hour tests to be performed on each of the test articles. Non-destructive testing will be used before, in between and after the runs to examine the evolution of the deposition growth. Following the final run, destructive testing will be used to examine the chemical composition of the deposits and their potential interaction with the TBC. Preliminary work will lead to a future study the would enhance the understanding of particle deposition evolution and examine the effects of deposition on film cooling by performing the tests in a high-pressure and high-temperature environment that is similar to the high-pressure combustion exhaust gas environment of the first stage region in IGCC turbines.

The scope of this paper will include a description of this experimental test facility and a discussion of some test results collected from a flat plate (Haynes 230) using a single row of fan-shaped film cooling holes. This test specimen has been tested at two different pressures (i.e., 1.3 and 3 bar). The hot gas path flow velocity (i.e., 60 m/s) and the hot gas temperature (i.e., 1300 K) have been maintained as a constant for these tests. At each of these test conditions, five different film cooling blowing ratio conditions have been evaluated, including a condition with no film cooling. The overall cooling effectiveness and the reduction in heat flux for a point near the center of the test sample are reported and discussed.

ID JET-IMPINGEMENT
AB The trailing-edge region of turbine airfoils is difficult to cool. In this study, CFD conjugate analysis based on the shear-stress transport (SST) turbulence model is used to study the flow and heat transfer in a triple-impingement cooling configuration. Parameters studied include the pressure drop across the configuration (1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 bars), and the heat transfer coefficient on the hot-gas side (2,000, 4,000, and 6,000 W/m(2)-K). In all cases with conjugate analysis, the temperature of the coolant at the inlet of the cooling passage is 673 K, the external hot-gas temperature is 1,755 K, and the static pressure at the exit of cooling passage is 25 bars. Simulations were also performed in which the temperature of the cooling-passage wall is kept constant at 1,173 K. Results are generated to show the nature of the flow induced by the triple impingement and how that flow affects heat transfer to the turbine material.

The softness to triaxiality perturbs the band structures of Ru-108 and even-N Pd isotopes. Two sets of odd-parity bands are identified in Pd-112,Pd-114,Pd-116 similar to but different from those in Ru-110,Ru-112. These differences can be accounted for by interferences of the chiral doubling and softness to triaxiality. Also in Ru-112, evidence for wobbling motion is found in the behavior of the. vibrational band. Similar evidence for wobbling motion is found in Pd-114, the N = 68 isotone of Ru-112.

AB Climate scientists have made substantial progress in understanding Earth's climate system, particularly at global and continental scales. Climate research is now focused on understanding climate changes over wider ranges of time and space scales. These efforts are generating ultra-scale data sets at very high spatial resolution. An insightful analysis in climate science depends on using software tools to discover, access, manipulate, and visualize the data sets of interest. These data exploration tasks can be complex and time-consuming, and they frequently involve many resources from both the modeling and observational climate communities. Because of the complexity of the explorations, provenance is critical, allowing scientists to ensure reproducibility, revisit existing computational pipelines, and more easily share analyses and results. In addition, as the results of this work can impact policy, having provenance available is important for decision-making. In this paper we describe, UV-CDAT, a workflow-based, provenance-enabled system that integrates climate data analysis libraries and visualization tools in an end-to-end application, making it easier for scientists to integrate and use a wide array of tools.

AB Superconductivity is the technology that enabled the construction of the most recent generation of high-energy particle accelerators, the largest scientific instruments ever built. In this review we trace the evolution of superconducting materials for particle accelerator magnets, from the first steps in the late 1960s, through the rise and glory of Nb-Ti in the 1970s, till the 2010s, and the promises of Nb3Sn for the 2020s. We conclude with a perspective on the opportunities for high-temperature superconductors (HTSs). Many such reviews have been written in the past, as witnessed by the long list of references provided. In this review we put particular emphasis on the practical aspects of wire and tape manufacturing, cabling, engineering performance, and potential for use in accelerator magnets, while leaving in the background matters such as the physics of superconductivity and fundamental material issues.

DE Superconducting cavity; low-beta
AB High-power proton and ion linac projects based on superconducting accelerating cavities are driving a worldwide effort to develop and build superconducting cavities for beta < 1. Laboratories and institutions building quarter-wave, halfwave and single-or multi-spoke cavities continue to advance the state of the art for this class of cavities, and the common notion that low-beta SRF cavities fill a need in niche applications and have low performance is clearly no longer valid. This article reviews recent developments and results for SC cavity performance for cavities with beta up to approximately 0.5. The considerable ongoing effort on reduced beta elliptical cell cavities is not discussed. An overview of associated subsystems required to operate low-beta cavities, including rf power couplers and fast and slow tuners, is presented.

AB Superconductivity is playing an increasingly important role in advanced medical technologies. Compact superconducting cyclotrons are emerging as powerful tools for external beam therapy with protons and carbon ions, and offer advantages of cost and size reduction in isotope production as well. Superconducting magnets in isocentric gantries reduce their size and weight to practical proportions. In diagnostic imaging, superconducting magnets have been crucial for the successful clinical implementation of magnetic resonance imaging. This article introduces each of those areas and describes the role which superconductivity is playing in them.

AB Superconducting rf (SRF) technology is evolving rapidly, as are its applications. While there is active exploitation of what one may call the current state-of-the-practice, there is also rapid progress in expanding in several dimensions the accessible and useful parameter space. While state-of-the-art performance sometimes outpaces thorough understanding, the improving scientific understanding from active SRF research is clarifying routes to obtain optimum performance from present materials and opening avenues beyond the standard bulk niobium. The improving technical basis understanding is enabling process engineering to improve both performance confidence and reliability and also unit implementation costs. Increasing confidence in the technology enables the engineering of new creative application designs. We attempt to survey this landscape to highlight the potential for future accelerator applications.

AB Sizes of compressed bitmap indexes and compressed data are significantly affected by the order of data records. The optimal orders of rows and columns that minimizes the index sizes is known to be NP-hard to compute. Instead of seeking the precise global optimal ordering, we develop accurate statistical formulas that compute approximate solutions. Since the widely used bitmap indexes are compressed with variants of the run-length encoding (RLE) method, our work concentrates on computing the sizes of bitmap indexes compressed with the basic Run-Length Encoding. The resulting formulas could be used for choosing indexes to build and to use. In this paper, we use the formulas to develop strategies for reordering rows and columns of a data table. We present empirical measurements to show that our formulas are accurate for a wide range of data. Our analysis confirms that the heuristics of sorting columns with low column cardinalities first is indeed effective in reducing the index sizes. We extend the strategy by showing that columns with the same cardinality should be ordered from high skewness to low skewness.

AB Parallel transistor-level circuit simulation has the potential to significantly impact the need for reliably determining parasitic effects for modern feature sizes. Incorporating parallelism into a simulator at both coarse and fine-grained levels, through the use of message-passing and threading paradigms, is supported by the advent of inexpensive clusters, as well as multi-core technology. However, its effectiveness is reliant upon the development of efficient parallel algorithms for traditional "true SPICE" circuit simulation. In this paper, we will discuss recent advances in fully parallel transistor-level full-chip circuit simulation, concluding with scaling results from a newer strategy for the parallel preconditioned iterative solution of circuit matrices.

AB One of the more common ammonium nitrate(AN)-based explosives is ANFO, which is a mixture of AN prills and diesel fuel oil (FO) in a 94:6 ratio by weight. Since there are no available shock data on FO, a series of shock compression experiments have been completed using a two-stage light gas gun with a sealed liquid target cell. The FO studied was diesel #2 which has been used in a number of ANFO explosive shots. Density and sound speed data were measured and used to predict and compare the data to a universal liquid Hugoniot (ULH). In-situ magnetic gauges in the target cell were used to measure the particle velocity, shock velocity, and shock wave profiles. Projectile impact velocities ranged from 1.5 to 3.2 km/s, generating input pressures to the FO between 3 and 17 GPa (depending on the impactor material being used). No shock-induced reaction was observed in the FO in any of the experiments. Since the ULH was found to slightly under predict the FO Hugoniot states, a linear Hugoniot was fit to the data -U-s = 1.775 + 1.725 u(p) - in mm/mu s. A Helmholtz EOS based on the Murnaghan isotherm was developed so the temperature on the Hugoniot could be estimated. At 12 GPa the shock temperature is expected to be 1500K.

AB The residual implanted dose of ultra-shallow B+ implants in Ge was characterized using elastic recoil detection and was determined to correlate well with simulations with a dose loss of 23% due to ion backscattering for 2 keV implants in Ge. The electrical characterization of ultra-shallow B+ implants at 2 keV to a dose of 5.0x10(14) cm(-2) at beam currents ranging from 0.4 to 6.4 mA has been studied using micro Hall effect measurements after annealing at 400 degrees C for 60 s. It has been shown that the sheet number increases with beam current across the investigated range with electrical activation being 76% higher at 6.4 mA as compared to 0.4mA. However, at 6.4 mA, the electrically active fraction remained low at 11.4%. Structural characterization revealed that the implanted region remained crystalline and amorphization is not able to explain the increased activation. The results suggest the presence of a stable B: Ge cluster whose formation is altered by point defect recombination during high flux implantation which results in increased B activation.

AB We proposed and demonstrated an enhancement-mode SiGe/strained-Si stack for a quantum dot [1], which both spaces the quantum dot away from interface defects and removes dopants. Smooth and predictable potentials for single electron quantum dots are highly desirable for beyond Moore's law approaches like quantum annealing and quantum computing. Enhancement-mode SiGe/sSi field-effect transistors ( FETs) have been demonstrated previously [2,3] and have recently achieved mobilities as high as 1.6x10(6) cm(2) /V s [4], indicating that a smooth potential approaching other model systems like GaAs can be produced in Si. This material stack has subsequently been used successfully by a different group to produce coherent qubit spin rotations [5]. We report in this letter that low-disorder quantum dots can be formed using a double-top-gated lateral quantum dot nanostructure, defined using 180 nm line width platform and fabricated in a 150 mm wafer batch-processing tool set in the Sandia National Labs silicon foundry. This is an important step towards showing that defects, lithography and process tolerances in a Si foundry are sufficient to build low disorder double quantum dots for both quantum computing and quantum annealing.

AB Separation of minor actinides such as americium and curium from lanthanides and other fission products is important for the development of efficient nuclear fuel reprocessing methods. This article describes findings from initial investigations into the use of titanium-based materials for the separation of actinides including americium, plutonium, neptunium, and uranium from fission products including lanthanides, strontium, and cesium. Two types of materials were studied; the first was sodium titanates (ST) that have a layered structure and the second was titanosilicates that have a 3-dimensional tunnel structure. Testing indicated that the layered sodium titanates and tunnel-structured titanosilicate materials exhibit a strong affinity for Am, lanthanides, Sr, and Cs at pH 3 and a significantly reduced affinity for Am and the lanthanides at a higher acid concentration (pH 1). Testing also indicated that the ST material exhibited high affinity for actinides in a pH 3 solution. The addition of complexing agents significantly decreased the sorption of Am and lanthanides.

AB Separations among the lanthanides and the separation of Am from the lanthanides remain challenging, and research in this area continues to expand. The separation of adjacent lanthanides is of interest to high-tech industries because individual lanthanides have specialized uses and are in short supply. In nuclear fuel cycle applications Am would be incorporated into fast-reactor fuels, yet the lanthanides are not desired. In this work, the diglycolamide N,N,N',N'-tetrabutyldiglycolamide (TBDGA) was investigated as a ligand for lanthanide and Am solvent extraction in both molecular and room-temperature-ionic-liquid (RTIL) diluents. The RTIL [C4MIM][Tf2N] showed very high extraction efficiency for these trivalent metals from low nitric acid concentrations, while the molecular diluent 1-octanol showed high extraction efficiency at high acid concentrations. This was attributed to the extraction of ionic nitrate complexes by the RTIL, whereas 1-octanol extracted neutral nitrate complexes. TBDGA in RTIL did not provide adequate separation factors for Am/lanthanide partitioning, but 1-octanol did show reasonable separation possibilities. Lanthanide intergroup separations appeared to be feasible in both diluents, but with higher separation factors from 1-octanol.

AB An overview is presented of the upgrade of JLab's cw electron accelerator from the current maximum beam energy of 6 GeV to the upgraded maximum energy of 12 GeV. Construction of the 12GeV upgrade project has started in 2008. A broad experimental program has been developed to map the nucleon's intrinsic correlated spin and momentum distribution through measurements of deeply exclusive and semi-inclusive processes, and to probe the quark and gluon confinement by studying the spectrum of mesons with exotic quantum numbers. Other programs include the forward parton distribution function at large x(B), the quark and gluon polarized distribution functions, measurements of electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon ground state and of nucleon resonance transitions at high Q(2), and the exploration of physics beyond the Standard Model in high-precision parity-violating processes. The higher beam energy is also well suited to explore quark hadronization properties using the nucleus as a laboratory.

AB Despite its reputation as a poison, arsenic is also a highly effective anti-leukaemia agent. In order to improve on its efficacy, a better understanding of the metabolism of arsenic, including the formation of specific arsenic metabolites, is necessary. In this study XAS was used to gain an understanding of the metabolism of arsenic in human hepatoma cells and microprobe SR-XRF imaging was used to determine potential targets for the identified arsenic species. It was found that the toxic arsenic metabolites, [MMA(III)(GS)(2)] and [DMA(III)(GS)], were produced in human cells and that these metabolites potentially interact with DNA or, more probably, proteins associated with DNA transcription.

AB Neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by the malfunction and/or death of nerve cells, i.e. neurons, in the central and peripheral nervous system. Many neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, and the prion diseases, involve the misfolding and aggregation of naturally occurring proteins. These aggregates are thought to be toxic to cells, playing a critical role in neurodegeneration. This chapter focuses on how FTIR spectroscopy and microspectroscopy have been used to evaluate the structural changes in these disease-related proteins. It also examines the effects of lipid peroxidation and breakdown, and the disease-related metabolic changes in carbohydrate and nucleic acid composition. Methods for examining these biochemical changes in vitro, in cell culture, and in tissue are described. Finally, recent applications to a wide range of neurodegenerative diseases will be profiled with an outlook toward future advances and uses of FTIR spectroscopic methods for understanding, diagnosing, and treating neurodegenerative diseases.

ID GROWTH
AB Electrodeposition and electropolishing of nanograined nickel has been observed using an in situ electrochemical wet cell developed for transmission electron microscopy. The cell employs two thin film nickel electrodes in a 0.1 M aqueous NiCl2 electrolyte, which were biased at +/- 1 V. Anisotropic electrodeposition was observed in which growth of the nickel film across the substrate occurred much more rapidly than growth perpendicular to the substrate. The anisotropic behavior results from relatively equiaxed nanograins nucleating at the growth front with little subsequent coarsening. Grains were observed to nucleate ahead of the growth front, suggesting a new mechanism for electrochemically driven growth across a substrate which depends on ionic surface adsorption ahead of the growth front. During electropolishing the dissolution of nickel tended to occur more isotropically. The film thinned relatively uniformly until certain regions displayed Rayleigh instabilities. At this point the film broke up and some regions coarsened rapidly and/or were subject to electromigration. (C) 2011 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Diamond anvil cells (DAC) in radial synchrotron X-ray diffraction geometry were used to investigate texture development and identify deformation mechanisms in zinc and osmium at the Advanced Photon Source (APS) and the Advanced Light Source (ALS), respectively. Further experiments on cadmium and hafnium wires were carried out in the Deformation-DIA (D-DIA) multi-anvil press at APS to study the simultaneous effects of pressure, temperature and strain. At room temperature and increasing pressure the c-axis aligns near the compression direction in all hexagonal metals, but with considerable differences. Texture in zinc evolves gradually between 10 and 15 GPa and strengthens as pressure is increased to 25 GPa. In osmium, texture development starts very early (4 GPa). At ambient temperature cadmium and hafnium develop a similar textures as zinc and osmium, respectively. Texture in cadmium evolves gradually with axial shortening to 34%, whereas in hafnium texturing develops immediately after small strains. When hafnium is simultaneously heated to 700 K and deformed in compression, a texture develops with compression axes near (2 (1) over bar (1) over bar 0). Simulations from a visco-plastic self-consistent (VPSC) polycrystal plasticity model suggest that the gradual texture evolution observed in zinc and cadmium is controlled primarily by {0 00 1}(2 (1) over bar (1) over bar 0) basal slip and later accompanied by {1 0 (1) over bar 2}(($1) over bar 0 1 1) tensile twinning when the c/a ratio is below root 3 approximate to 1.732. Conversely, early texture development in osmium and hafnium at room temperature is contributed mainly by {1 0 (1) over bar 2}((1) over bar 0 1 1) tensile twinning. However, the (2 (1) over bar (1) over bar 0) texture in hafnium at high temperature is attributed to basal and prismatic slip. (C) 2011 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB In this work, we develop and analyze a formalism for solving boundary value problems in arbitrarily-shaped domains using the MADNESS (multiresolution adaptive numerical environment for scientific simulation) package for adaptive computation with multiresolution algorithms. We begin by implementing a previously-reported diffuse domain approximation for embedding the domain of interest into a larger domain (Li et al., 2009 [1]). Numerical and analytical tests both demonstrate that this approximation yields non-physical solutions with zero first and second derivatives at the boundary. This excessive smoothness leads to large numerical cancellation and confounds the dynamically-adaptive, multiresolution algorithms inside MADNESS. We thus generalize the diffuse domain approximation, producing a formalism that demonstrates first-order convergence in both near- and far-field errors. We finally apply our formalism to an electrostatics problem from nanoscience with characteristic length scales ranging from 0.0001 to 300 nm. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The dynamics of solid-liquid interfaces controlled by solute precipitation and/or dissolution due to the chemical reaction at the interface were computed in two dimensions using a phase field models. Sharp-interface asymptotic analysis demonstrated that the phase field solutions should converge to the proper sharp-interface precipitation/dissolution limit. For the purpose of comparison, the numerical solution of the sharp-interface model for solute precipitation/dissolution was directly solved using a level set method. In general, the phase field results are found in good agreement with the level set results for all reaction rates and geometry configurations investigated. Present study supports the applications of both methods to more complicated and realistic reactive systems, including the nuclear waste release and mineral precipitation and dissolution.

AB Four mix models, implemented into an Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) multi-physics code, are compared on simulations of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability. The specific models of interest are a mass diffusion model, the k-L turbulence model, the BHR turbulence model, and a multifluid interpenetration mix model. The bubble growth rates produced by the different models are compared to experimentally determined growth rates. The diffusion model reproduces the characteristic t(1/2) growth for diffusion processes and therefore does not reproduce instability growth rates, as expected. The k-L and BHR turbulence models reproduce the nominal instability growth rates at multiple Atwood numbers with a single set of model parameters. The multifluid interpenetration model exhibits diffusion-like behavior and therefore does not reproduce instability growth rates. All four models exhibit Cauchy-like convergence in the mixing layer width with decreasing mesh size, although the multifluid model exhibits both a larger error for a given mesh size and a slower convergence rate than the turbulence models.

AB We describe the new version (v2.49t) of the code HFODD which solves the nuclear Skyrme-Hartree-Fock (HF) or Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov (HFB) problem by using the Cartesian deformed harmonic-oscillator basis. In the new version, we have implemented the following physics features: (i) the isospin mixing and projection, (ii) the finite-temperature formalism for the HFB and HF + BCS methods, (iii) the Lipkin translational energy correction method, (iv) the calculation of the shell correction. A number of specific numerical methods have also been implemented in order to deal with large-scale multi-constraint calculations and hardware limitations: (i) the two-basis method for the HFB method, (ii) the Augmented Lagrangian Method CALM) for multi-constraint calculations, (iii) the linear constraint method based on the approximation of the RPA matrix for multi-constraint calculations, (iv) an interface with the axial and parity-conserving Skyrme-HFB code HFBTHO, (V) the mixing of the HF or HFB matrix elements instead of the HF fields. Special care has been paid to using the code on massively parallel leadership class computers. For this purpose, the following features are now available with this version: (i) the Message Passing Interface (MPI) framework, (ii) scalable input data routines, (iii) multi-threading via OpenMP pragmas, (iv) parallel diagonalization of the HFB matrix in the simplex-breaking case using the ScaLAPACK library. Finally, several little significant errors of the previous published version were corrected.

Does the new version supersede the previous version?: Yes
Nature of problem: The nuclear mean field and an analysis of its symmetries in realistic cases are the main ingredients of a description of nuclear states. Within the Local Density Approximation, or for a zero-range velocity-dependent Skyrme interaction, the nuclear mean field is local and velocity dependent. The locality allows for an effective and fast solution of the self-consistent Hartree-Fock equations, even for heavy nuclei, and for various nucleonic (n-particle-n-hole) configurations, deformations, excitation energies, or angular momenta. Similarly, Local Density Approximation in the particle-particle channel, which is equivalent to using a zero-range interaction, allows for a simple implementation of pairing effects within the Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov method.
Solution method: The program uses the Cartesian harmonic oscillator basis to expand single-particle or single-quasiparticle wave functions of neutrons and protons interacting by means of the Skyrme effective interaction and zero-range pairing interaction. The expansion coefficients are determined by the iterative diagonalization of the mean-field Hamiltonians or Routhians which depend non-linearly on the local neutron and proton densities. Suitable constraints are used to obtain states corresponding to a given configuration, deformation or angular momentum. The method of solution has been presented in: [J.Dobaczewski, J. Dudek, Comput. Phys. Commun. 102 (1997) 166].
Reasons for new version: Version 2.49s of HFODD provides a number of new options such as the isospin mixing and projection of the Skyrme functional, the finite-temperature HF and HFB formalism and optimized methods to perform multi-constrained calculations. It is also the first version of HFODD to contain threading and parallel capabilities.
Summary of revisions:
1. Isospin mixing and projection of the HF states has been implemented.
2. The finite-temperature formalism for the HFB equations has been implemented.
3. The Lipkin translational energy correction method has been implemented.
4. Calculation of the shell correction has been implemented.
5. The two-basis method for the solution to the HFB equations has been implemented.
6. The Augmented Lagrangian Method (ALM) for calculations with multiple constraints has been implemented.
7. The linear constraint method based on the cranking approximation of the RPA matrix has been implemented.
8. An interface between HFODD and the axially-symmetric and parity-conserving code HFBTHO has been implemented.
9. The mixing of the matrix elements of the HF or HFB matrix has been implemented.
10. A parallel interface using the MPI library has been implemented.
11. A scalable model for reading input data has been implemented.
12. OpenMP pragmas have been implemented in three subroutines.
13. The diagonalization of the HFB matrix in the simplex-breaking case has been parallelized using the ScaLAPACK library.
14. Several little significant errors of the previous published version were corrected.
Running time: In serial mode, running 6 HFB iterations for (152)Dy for conserved parity and signature symmetries in a full spherical basis of N = 14 shells takes approximately 8 min on an AMD Opteron processor at 2.6 GHz, assuming standard BLAS and LAPACK libraries. As a rule of thumb, runtime for HFB calculations for parity and signature conserved symmetries roughly increases as N(7), where N is the number of full HO shells. Using custom-built optimized BLAS and LAPACK libraries (such as in the ATLAS implementation) can bring down the execution time by 60%.

Pure Ba(2)In(2)O(5) was found to be properly described-at the local scale-by the orthorhombic average structure. Ba(2)In(1.7)P(0.3)O(5.3) and Ba(2)In(1.7)S(0.3)O(5.45) cannot be described, at the local scale, by a cubic symmetry. The PDFs of these two samples clearly showed a distorted atom arrangement in the short-range which can be described again with the orthorhombic symmetry found in pure barium indate.

AB Single crystal photocrystallographic experiments and solid state Raman spectroscopy have been used to determine the low temperature, metastable structures of the nickel(II) nitrito complexes [Ni(aep)(2)(eta(1)-ONO) 2] 1#O (aep = 1-(2-aminoethyl) piperidine), [Ni(aem)(2)(eta(1)-ONO)(2)] 2#O (aem = 1-(2-aminoethyl)morpholine), and [Ni(aepy)(2)(eta(1)-ONO)(2)] 3#O (aepy = 1-(2-aminoethyl) pyrrolidine and where the #O denotes the oxygen-bound nitrito metastable molecule). These linkage isomers of the equivalent nitro complexes [Ni(aep)(2)(eta(1)-NO2)(2)] 1, [Ni(aem)(2)(eta(1)-NO2)(2)] 2 and [Ni(aepy)2(eta(1)-NO2)(2)] 3 are formed by LED irradiation at temperatures below 120 K. The behavior of the three complexes upon irradiation is generally similar, but some subtle differences have been observed. From the crystallographic studies all three complexes 1-3 exhibit the endo-nitrito linkage isomer upon irradiation, however, for 3# (a crystal structure that contains components of both 3 and 3#O) an exo-nitrito isomer is also observed. Under conditions of 90-100 K, with blue light, the conversion percentages to the nitrito isomers, 1#O, 2#O and 3#O were 16%, 22% and 30%, respectively. At temperatures below 110 K all three nitrito isomers were stable for over four hours but while 2#O and 3#O could be detected at temperatures down to 30 K, at temperatures below 60 K the metastable structure 1#O appeared to be quenched and only the nitro isomer 1 was identified in the crystal. The solid state Raman spectra for 1#, 2# and 3# confirmed the photocrystallographic results with the nitrito isomers being identified from the O-N-O deformation vibrations.

Using picosecond pulse radiolysis detection methods, we observed and quantified the solvation response of the electron in 1-methyl-1-butyl-pyrrolidinium bis (trifluoromethylsulfonyl)amide and used it to understand electron scavenging by a typical solute, duroquinone.

AB The disintegration of turbulent liquid jets in gases, a process termed turbulent primary breakup, has many industrial applications, especially in liquid injection systems whose injector internal flow results in enhanced turbulence generation. An investigation was carried out by using X-ray diagnostics at the Advanced Photon Source (APS) facility of Argonne National Laboratory on two injectors with a smooth entry followed by round passage with different length-to-diameter ratios of 10 and 40, operating at the same injection speed. The test matrix was designed to eliminate cavitation and to isolate the effect of length/diameter ratio of the injector passage and to determine the importance of jet turbulence compared to aerodynamic forces. The X-ray diagnostics used allowed the surface and internal topography of liquid jets to be visualized and the spatial distribution of the surface ligaments to be revealed in the near-injector region. The present results show that the separation distance between a ligament and its neighbors depends on the ligament sizes, and the injector length/diameter ratio affects the rates of breakup.

AB The strength of true metallic nanowires and nanopillars (diameters below 100 nm) is known to be higher than the strength of bulk metals and is most likely controlled by dislocation nucleation from free surfaces. Dislocation nucleation is a thermally activated process that is sensitive to both temperature and strain rate. However, most simulations rely on high strain rate molecular dynamics to investigate strength and nucleation, which is limited by short molecular dynamics time scales. In this work, the energetics of dislocation nucleation in gold nanowires are computed using atomistic simulations, and transition state theory is used to estimate the strength at experimental strain rates revealing detailed information outside the realm accessible to molecular dynamics simulations. This allows investigation into the competition between thermally activated dislocation nucleation and other failure mechanisms such as elastic and structural instabilities. Additionally, the mechanisms of dislocation nucleation are compared against analytical continuum models which allow a better understanding of the nucleation process including the effects of the wire surfaces. This study helps clarify and consolidate our understanding of the nature of dislocation nucleation in small structures. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The mechanism of nanoparticle actuation by stimuli-responsive polymer brushes triggered by changes in the solution pH was discovered and investigated in detail in this study. The finding explains the high spectral sensitivity of the composite ultrathin film composed of a poly(2-vinylpyridine) (P2VP) brush that tunes the spacing between two kinds of nanoparticles-gold nanoislands immobilized on a transparent support and gold colloidal particles adsorbed on the brush. The optical response of the film relies on the phenomenon of localized surface plasmon resonances in the noble metal nanoparticles, giving rise to an extinction band in visible spectra, and a plasmon coupling between the particles and the islands that has a strong effect on the band position and intensity. Since the coupling is controlled by the interparticle spacing, the pH-triggered swelling-shrinking transition in the P2VP brush leads to pronounced changes in the transmission spectra of the hybrid film. It was not established in the previous publications how the actuation of gold nanoparticles within a 10-15 nm interparticle distance could result in the 50-60 nm shift in the absorbance maximum in contrast to the model experiments and theoretical estimations of several nanometer shifts. In this work, the extinction band was deconvoluted into four spectrally separated and overlapping contributions that were attributed to different modes of interactions between the particles and the islands. These modes came into existence due to variations in the thickness of the grafted polymeric layer on the profiled surface of the islands. In situ atomic force microscopy measurements allowed us to explore the behavior of the Au particles as the P2VP brush switched between the swollen and collapsed states. In particular, we identified an interesting, previously unanticipated regime when a particle position in a polymer brush was switched between two distinct states: the particle exposed to the surface of the collapsed layer and the particle engulfed by the swollen brush. On average, the characteristic distance between the particles and the islands increased upon the brush swelling. The observed behavior was a result of the anchoring of the particles to polymeric chains that limited the particles' vertical motion range. The experimental findings will be used to design highly sensitive optical nanosensors based on a polymer-brush-modulated interparticle plasmon coupling.

AB We review recent progress in the investigation of the electroexcitation of nucleon resonances, both in experiment and in theory. We describe current experimental facilities, the experiments performed on pi and eta electroproduction off protons, and theoretical approaches used for the extraction of resonance contributions from the experimental data. The status of 2 pi, K Lambda, and K Sigma electroproduction is also presented. The most accurate results have been obtained for the electroexcitation amplitudes of the four lowest excited states, which have been measured in a range of Q(2) up to 8 and 4.5 GeV2 for Delta(1232)P-33, N(1535)S-11 and N(1440)P-11, N(1520)D-13, respectively. These results have been confronted with calculations based on lattice QCD, large-N-c relations, perturbative QCD (pQCD), and QCD-inspired models. The amplitudes for the Delta(1232) indicate large pion-cloud contributions at low Q(2) and do not show any sign of approaching the pQCD regime for Q(2) < 7 GeV2. Measured for the first time, the electroexcitation amplitudes of the Roper resonance, N(1440)P-11, provide strong evidence for this state as a predominantly radial excitation of a three-quark (3q) ground state, with additional non-3-quark contributions needed to describe the low Q(2) behavior of the amplitudes. The longitudinal transition amplitude for the N(1535)S-11 was determined and has become a challenge for quark models. Explanations may require large meson-cloud contributions or alternative representations of this state. The N(1520)D-13 clearly shows the rapid changeover from helicity-3/2 dominance at the real photon point to helicity-1/2 dominance at Q(2) > 0.5 GeV2, confirming a long-standing prediction of the constituent quark model. The interpretation of the moments of resonance transition form factors in terms of transition transverse charge distributions in infinite momentum frame is presented. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.

Experimentally, the twist boundary in Au captures all the He in the sample, forming equal-sized bubbles at the dislocation intersection junctions. Simulations in Cu reveal a complex structure of the interface and different He pressure in the interface bubbles compared to bulk, providing an explanation for the high efficiency of the boundary to capture all the He in the sample.

AB Biological cells are capable of sensing mechanical cues and responding to these signals by undergoing morphological changes and directed motion. A significant challenge is creating cell-like objects that can translate mechanical stimuli into analogous behavior. Herein, we use computational modeling to design a simple mechanosensitive "cell'' that responds to mechanical deformation through a shape change that allows it to undergo self-sustained, directed movement. Our cellular object is formed from a nanoparticle-filled microcapsule that is located on an adhesive substrate in solution. In response to a locally applied force, the deformed capsule releases nanoparticles that bind to the surface and dynamically create adhesion gradients. Due to the self-generated gradients, the capsule moves autonomously from regions of less adhesion to greater adhesion. During the capsule's motion, new nanoparticles are released that both sustain and propagate the adhesion gradients and thus, the capsule sustains autonomous movement along its path (until it is depleted of nanoparticles). The self-sustained motion occurs only if the permeability of the capsule's shell depends on mechanical deformation. We isolate critical parameters that control the dynamic behavior of this mechano-responsive capsule. Our findings can facilitate the fabrication of devices that are powered by the autonomous movement of microscopic synthetic cells. Additionally, the capsules could serve as sensors for mechanical strain, indicating the presence of strain fields by their spontaneous motion and release of nanoparticles; the latter behavior could be exploited in the fabrication of self-healing materials.

AB The femtosecond-fast transport in metal-insulator-metal (MIM) tunnel diodes makes them attractive for applications such as ultra-high frequency rectenna detectors and solar cells, and mixers. These applications impose severe requirements on the diode current-voltage I(V) characteristics. For example, rectennas operating at terahertz or higher frequencies require diodes to have low resistance and adequate nonlinearity. To analyze and design MIM diodes with the desired characteristics, we developed a simulator based on the transfer-matrix method, and verified its accuracy by comparing simulated I(V) characteristics with those measured in MIM diodes that we fabricated by sputtering, and also with simulations based on the quantum transmitting boundary method. Single-insulator low-resistance diodes are not sufficiently nonlinear for efficient rectennas. Multi-insulator diodes can be engineered to provide both low resistance and substantial nonlinearity. The improved performance of multi-insulator diodes can result from either resonant tunneling or a step change in tunneling distance with voltage, either of which can be made to dominate by the appropriate choice of insulators and barrier thicknesses. The stability of the interfaces in the MIIM diodes is confirmed through a thermodynamic analysis. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB In this paper, we develop a unifying optimization formulation to describe the Dynamic Channel and Power Assignment (DCPA) problem and an evaluation method for comparing DCPA algorithms. DCPA refers to the allocation of transmit power and frequency channels to links in a cognitive network so as to maximize the total number of feasible links while minimizing the aggregate transmit power. We apply our evaluation method to five representative DPCA algorithms proposed in the literature. This comparison illustrates the tradeoffs between control modes (centralized versus distributed) and channel/power assignment techniques. We estimate the complexity of each algorithm. Through simulations, we evaluate the effectiveness of the algorithms in achieving feasible link allocations in the network, and their power efficiency. Our results indicate that, when few channels are available, the effectiveness of all algorithms is comparable and thus the one with smallest complexity should be selected. The Least Interfering Channel and Iterative Power Assignment algorithm does not require cross-link gain information, has the overall lowest run time, and achieves the highest feasibility ratio of all the distributed algorithms; however, this comes at a cost of higher average power per link.

TI Link Positions Matter: A Noncommutative Routing Metric for Wireless Mesh

LA English
DT Article
DE Wireless networks; routing metrics; IEEE 802.11 testbeds
AB We revisit the problem of computing the path with the minimum cost in terms of the expected number of link layer transmissions (including retransmissions) in wireless mesh networks. Unlike previous efforts, such as the popular ETX, we account for the fact that MAC protocols (including the IEEE 802.11 MAC) incorporate a finite number of transmission attempts per packet. This in turn leads to our key observation: the performance of a path depends not only on the number of the links on the path and the quality of its links, but also, on the relative positions of the links on the path. Based on this observation, we propose ETOP, a path metric that accurately captures the expected number of link layer transmissions required for reliable end-to-end packet delivery. We analytically compute ETOP, which is not trivial, since ETOP is a noncommutative function of the link success probabilities. Although ETOP is a more involved metric, we show that the problem of computing paths with the minimum ETOP cost can be solved by a greedy algorithm. We implement and evaluate a routing approach based on ETOP on a 25-node indoor mesh network. Our experiments show that the path selection with ETOP consistently results in superior TCP goodput (by over 50 percent in many cases) compared to path selection based on ETX. We also perform an in-depth analysis of the measurements to better understand why the paths selected by ETOP improve the TCP performance.

AB This paper is concerned with the multiscale simulation of plastic deformation of metallic specimens using physically-based models that take into account their polycrystalline microstructure and the directionality of deformation mechanisms acting at single-crystal level. A polycrystal model based on self-consistent homogenization of single-crystal viscoplastic behavior is used to provide a texture-sensitive constitutive response of each material point, within a boundary problem solved with finite elements (FE) at the macroscale. The resulting constitutive behavior is that of an elasto-viscoplastic material, implemented in the implicit FE code ABAQUS. The widely-used viscoplastic selfconsistent (VPSC) formulation for polycrystal deformation has been implemented inside a user-defined material (UMAT) subroutine, providing the relationship between stress and plastic strain-rate response. Each integration point of the FE model is considered as a polycrystal with a given initial texture that evolves with deformation. The viscoplastic compliance tensor computed internally in the polycrystal model is in turn used for the minimization of a suitable-designed residual, as well as in the construction of the elasto-viscoplastic tangent stiffness matrix required by the implicit FE scheme.
Uniaxial tension and simple shear of an FCC polycrystal have been used to benchmark the accuracy of the proposed implicit scheme and the correct treatment of rotations for prediction of texture evolution. In addition, two applications are presented to illustrate the potential of the multiscale strategy: a simulation of rolling of an FCC plate, in which the model predicts the development of different textures through the thickness of the plate; and the deformation under 4-point bending of textured HCP bars, in which the model captures the dimensional changes associated with different orientations of the dominant texture component with respect to the bending plane.

AB Pt-Au nanoparticles supported on high area carbon were prepared by simultaneous reduction of Au and Pt precursors and by reduction of Pt precursor on already prepared Au nanoparticles. The first method produced a solid solution of Pt in Au containing similar to 5% Pt with the remaining Pt on the nanoparticles' surface. For the Pt:Au precursor ratio of 1:4 and 1:9, the surface ratio was found to be 0.70:0.30 and 0.55:0.45, respectively. By the second method with the Pt:Au precursors ratio of 1:12, the surface ratio was 0.30:0.70. The voltammetric peaks of Pt-oxide reduction and CO(ads) oxidation demonstrated electronic modification of Pt by Au in all catalysts. With decreasing Pt:Au surface ratio the activity for HCOOH oxidation increases and surface coverage by CO(ads) decreases. The highest activity under potentiodynamic and quasi steady-state conditions without poisoning by CO(ads) was observed for the catalyst with the lowest Pt:Au surface ratio. Chronoamperometic test showed that its high catalytic activity is associated with a high deactivation rate. It was postulated that too strong adsorption of a reactive or non-reactive intermediate caused by electron modification of Pt by underlying Au, is responsible for the deactivation. This result stresses that high Pt dispersion, necessary for promotion of the dehydrogenation path in HCOOH oxidation, can produce too strong adsorption of intermediates causing deactivation of the catalyst.

AB An alkali silicate glass (SCN-1) is being evaluated as a candidate sealant for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) applications. The glass contains about 17 wt.% alkalis (K + Na) and has low glass transition and softening temperatures. It remains vitreous and compliant after sealing without substantial crystallization, as contrary to conventional glass-ceramic sealant. The glassy nature and low characteristic temperatures can reduce residual stresses and result in the potential for crack healing. In a previous study, the glass was found to have good thermal cycle stability and was chemically compatible with yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) coating during short term testing. In this study, the compliant glass was further evaluated in a more realistic way in that the sealed couples were first isothermally aged for 1000 h followed by thermal cycling. High temperature leakage was measured. Chemical compatibility was also investigated with powder mixtures to enhance potential interfacial reaction. In addition, interfacial microstructure was examined with scanning electron microscopy and evaluated with regard to the leakage and chemical compatibility results. Overall the compliant sealing glass showed desirable chemical compatibility with YSZ coated metallic interconnect of minimum reaction and hermetic behavior at 700-750 degrees C in dual environment.

AB We present Natural Load Indices (NLIs) as an alternative to measurement-based load indices. NLIs facilitate further performance improvement and better resource usage. Example NLIs are rainfall amounts in a climate simulation, mass of an atom in a Molecular Dynamics (MD) code and surface fluxes in an ocean model. The process of obtaining an NLI occurs during model development or as a preprocessing step and implementing NLIs minimizes run-time costs associated with dynamic load balancing.
NLIs are investigated in several applications. (A) We implement NLIs in the Community Atmosphere Model and discuss performance. (B) We extend prior Molecular Dynamics work by providing performance analysis using longer simulations. (C) We demonstrate the existence of an NLI in an ocean model. (D) We demonstrate similarities between NLIs in those models and show that NLIs are a general class of load index. Systems investigated include Pentium 4 Xeon, IBM Power5-p575 and IBM BlueGene/L parallel platforms.
