There is a growing number of infrared (IR) spectral signature data in the scientific community gathered from a variety of sensors using a variety of collection techniques. As the quantity of collected data grows, automated solutions for searching and matching signatures need to be developed. When searching and matching signatures, reducing computational complexity and increasing matching accuracy...
Proton-beam-generation experiments have been conducted on the NRL Mercury pulsed-power generator operating in positive polarity with a lithium metal target embedded in the cathode. The accelerating voltage was limited to below 2.7 MV in order to limit the energy of neutrons produced in the 7Li(p,n)7Be reaction (Q = 1.88 MeV) to below 1 MeV. Analyses based on published results1 and calculations presented...
In mechanical engineering at the University of Wisconsin, we have been experimenting with approaches to directly assess student performance as a means of providing evidence for improving learning. Based on our experiences using concept inventories to assess student understanding in the thermal science area, we developed a new formative assessment tool that provides feedback to the students and the...
