AB We have investigated the electronic properties of monolayer graphene with adsorbed layers of xenon or potassium, or a combination of the two. The formation of the first Xe layer is characterized by a dipole polarization which is quenched by a second Xe layer. By comparing K on Xe on graphene to K on bare graphene, we determine the K contribution to trigonal warping and mass renormalization due to electron-phonon coupling. The former is found to be small but significant, while the latter is shown to be negligible. Thus, previously determined values of electron-phonon coupling for K on graphene are shown to be intrinsic to doped graphene and not determined by the proximity of K ions to the graphene.

TI Doping dependence of the (pi, pi) shadow band in La-based cuprates

AB The (pi, pi) shadow band (SB) in the La-based cuprate family (La214) was studied by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy over a wide doping range from x = 0.01 to x = 0.25. Unlike the well-studied case of the Bi-based cuprate family, an overall strong, monotonic doping dependence of the SB intensity at the Fermi level (E-F) was observed. In contrast to a previous report for the presence of the SB only close to x = 1/8, we found that it exists in a wide doping range, associated with a doping-independent (pi, pi) wave vector but a strongly doping-dependent intensity: it is strongest at x similar to 0.03 and systematically diminishes as the doping increases until it becomes negligible in the overdoped regime. This SB with the observed doping dependence of intensity can in principle be caused by the antiferromagnetic fluctuations or a particular form of low-temperature orthorhombic lattice distortion known to persist up to x similar to 0.21 in the system, with both being weakened with increasing doping. However, a detailed binding-energy-dependent analysis of the SB at x = 0.07 does not appear to support the former interpretation, leaving the latter as a more plausible candidate, despite a challenge in quantitatively linking the doping dependences of the SB intensity and the magnitude of the lattice distortion. Our finding highlights the necessity for a careful and global consideration of the inherent structural complications for correctly understanding the cuprate Fermiology and its microscopic implication.

AB Ab initio methods have been used to investigate the properties of Pd as impurity in bulk SiC at five charged states within the framework of density functional theory using the local spin density approximation. It was found that Pd interstitials and substitutionals have similar energy to their intrinsic counterparts. In addition, Pd substitutes for a vacancy, di-vacancy, and tri-vacancy with similar energies. Pd diffuses through SiC via an interstitial mechanism employing the tetrahedral sites and Pd can substitute for Si and C at positive charged states. Removing electrons (p-type doping) from SiC lowers the formation and migration energies of Pd defects in SiC for most configurations.

TI High-Temperature Galling Characteristics of TI-6AL-4V with and without
Surface Treatments
SO TRIBOLOGY TRANSACTIONS
LA English
DT Article
DE Galling; Surface Modification; Titanium
ID TITANIUM-ALLOYS; WEAR
AB Galling is a severe form of surface damage in metals and alloys that typically arises under relatively high normal force and low sliding speed and in the absence of effective lubrication. It can lead to macroscopic surface roughening and seizure. The occurrence of galling can be especially problematic in high-temperature applications like diesel engine exhaust gas recirculation system components and adjustable turbocharger vanes, because suitable lubricants may not be available, moisture desorption promotes increased adhesion, and the yield strength of metals decreases with temperature. Oxidation can counteract these effects to some extent by forming lubricative oxide films. Two methods to improve the galling resistance of titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V were investigated: (a) applying an oxygen diffusion treatment and (b) creating a metal-matrix composite with TiB2 using a high-intensity infrared heating source. A new oscillating three-pin-on-flat, high-temperature test method was developed and used to characterize galling behavior relative to a cobalt-based alloy (Stellite 6B, HP Alloys, Windfall, IN). The magnitude of the oscillating torque, the surface roughness, and observations of surface damage were used as measures of galling resistance. Due to the formation of lubricative oxide films, the galling resistance of the Ti alloy at 485 degrees C, even nontreated, was considerably better than it was at room temperature. The infrared (IR)-formed composite displayed reduced surface damage and lower torque than the substrate titanium alloy.

AB Bone is a hierarchically structured composite which imparts it with unique mechanical properties and bioresorptive potential. These properties are primarily influenced by the underlying nanostructure of bone, which consists of nanocrystals of hydroxyapatite embedded and uniaxially aligned within collagen fibrils. There is also a small fraction of non-collagenous proteins in bone, and these are thought to play an important role in bone's formation. In our in vitro model system of bone formation, polyanionic peptides are used to mimic the role of the non-collagenous proteins. In our prior studies, we have shown that intrafibrillar mineralization can be achieved in synthetic reconstituted collagen sponges using a polymer-induced liquid-precursor (PILP) mineralization process. This led to a nanostructured arrangement of hydroxyapatite crystals within the individual fibrils which closely mimics that of bone. This report demonstrates that biogenic collagen scaffolds obtained from turkey tendon, which consist of densely packed and oriented collagen fibrils, can also be mineralized by the PILP process. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction studies show that the mineralization process leads to a high degree of crystallographic orientation at the macroscale, thus emulating that found in the biological system of naturally mineralizing turkey tendon.

AB Electron or ion dynamics are treated using spin-dependent quantum trajectories. These trajectories are inferred from the Dirac current, which contributes Schroedinger's current and additional spin-dependent terms, all of which are of order c(0) in the nonrelativistic regime of particle velocity, where c is the speed of light. The many-body problem is treated precisely as in classical dynamics. Each electron or ion has its own equation of motion, which is the time-dependent Dirac or the time-dependent Schroedinger equation in the relativistic or nonrelativistic regime of particle velocity, respectively. As an example the theory is applied to the electronic structure of the helium atom, in which two electrons with opposite spin states are shown to correlate such that their quantum trajectories keep them on average on opposite sides of the nucleus. As the theory is time dependent, excited states are also generated. (C) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem 111: 1-7, 2011

AB We consider the problem of soft gluon resummation for gauge theory amplitudes and cross sections, at next-to-eikonal order, using a Feynman diagram approach. At the amplitude level, we prove exponentiation for the set of factorizable contributions, and construct effective Feynman rules which can be used to compute next-to-eikonal emissions directly in the logarithm of the amplitude, finding agreement with earlier results obtained using path-integral methods. For cross sections, we also consider sub-eikonal corrections to the phase space for multiple soft-gluon emissions, which contribute to next-to-eikonal logarithms. To clarify the discussion, we examine a class of log(1- x) terms in the Drell-Yan cross-section up to two loops. Our results are the first steps towards a systematic generalization of threshold resummations to next-to-leading power in the threshold expansion.

AB We report how quantum information encoded into multiple photonic degrees of freedom may be simultaneously teleported using a single, common physical process. The application of teleportation to the complete quantum state of a photon, i.e. the spectral, spatial, and polarization component states, permits the full photonic Hilbert space to be used for encoding information while simultaneously enabling subspaces to be addressed individually, e.g. for quantum information processing. We analyze the feasibility of teleporting the full quantum state through numerical analysis of the fidelity under nominal experimental conditions and for different types of input states, e.g. single-photon states that are separable or entangled in the physical degrees of freedom.

AB We present a new method for understanding the changes with temperature of the volume and compressibility of solids. These changes depend on five parameters: V-0, B-0, Theta, gamma(G) and delta(T). V-0 and B-0 are the atomic volume and bulk modulus at T = 0K, Theta is the Debye temperature, gamma(G) is the Gruneisen parameter, and delta(T) is the Anderson-Gruneisen parameter. Equations for the temperature-dependent volume, bulk modulus and thermal expansion are given, and examples of the use of these equations are provided, with particular emphasis on the light actinides. For the elements, we examine the relationship between experimental values of gamma(G) and delta(T), and find no clear correlation. In particular, Swenson's rule, which states that the bulk modulus does not change with temperature if the volume is held constant, is a poor approximation to the data. We reveal a new useful approximate relationship between dB/dP and gamma(G). We find that the thermodynamic quantity q, which describes the variation in gamma(G) with volume, distributes around 2, not around 1, as often assumed. We show that the thermal-expansion behavior of Si and Ge (including negative thermal expansion at low temperatures) are well described with the use of a two-level invar model.

AB The lithium transition metal oxide LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 with an Fd (3) over barm space group (SG) structure has shown great potential as a cathode material for 5 V lithium-ion rechargeable-batteries. In this work, a flame-assisted spray technology (FAST) was developed to produce nanostructured LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 powder in a continuous manner. The as-synthesized powder had a uniform morphology, was spherical in shape and had a nanocrystalline structure, as observed by SEM and TEM. The XRD pattern of the as-synthesized powder matched the spectrum of spinel-LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4. The average grain size was about 16 nm, as calculated by XRD. However, XRD also indicated the impurity Mn2NiO4 in the powder. By varying flame temperature, it was possible to show that the impurity was formed due to the high temperature of the flame. While flame temperature was minimized by lowering the H-2/N-2 ratio, it was not possible to completely eliminate Mn2NiO4 from the as-synthesized powder. After annealing at 800 degrees C for 2 h, the impurity was eliminated, and the XRD pattern of the powder indicated a pure-phase spinel structure with an Fd (3) over barm SG. The electrochemical performance of the flame-synthesized LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 powder was tested in coin-type test batteries that were charged and discharged at constant current under a 5 V potential. The test cells showed the characteristic voltage plateaus of spinel-LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (Fd (3) over barm SG). The material proved to be electrochemically active as a cathode material for lithium-ion rechargeable-batteries. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Inc. on behalf of The Combustion Institute.

AB Results from combustion experiments, in which the fuel and oxidizer particle sizes of Al/CuO and Al/MoO3 thermites were varied between the nanometer and micrometer scale, are presented to gain further insight into the factors governing their rate of propagation. The experiments were performed with thermite mixtures loosely packed in an instrumented burn tube. Critical properties, including linear propagation rates, dynamic pressure, and spectral emission, were measured and compared to determine if the scale of one constituent had more influence over the rate of propagation than the other. It was found that, although nano-fuel/nano-oxidizer composites propagated the fastest for both the Al/CuO and Al/MoO3 thermites, composites containing micron-aluminum and a nano-scale oxidizer propagated significantly faster than a composite of nano-aluminum and a micron-scale oxidizer. The impact of nano-scale oxidizer versus nano-scale Al is twofold. Firstly, mixtures containing nano-aluminum have a greater mass percentage of Al2O3, which reduces reaction temperatures and propagation rates. Secondly, reactions in porous nano-thermites propagate through a convective mechanism; with heat transfer being driven by flow induced by large pressure gradients. Mixtures containing nano-scale oxidizer particles show faster pressurization rates. Because the majority of gas generation is due to the decomposition or vaporization of the oxide in these reactions, and oxide particles on the nano-scale have shorter heat-up times and smaller length scales for gas diffusion than micron particles, convective burning is greatly enhanced with the nano-scale oxidizer.

ID HYPERBOLIC CONSERVATION-LAWS; ADAPTIVE MESH REFINEMENT
AB A model is proposed to simulate turbulent combustion in confined TNT explosions. It is based on: (i) the multi-component gasdynamic conservation laws, (ii) a fast-chemistry model for TNT-air combustion, (iii) a thermodynamic model for frozen reactants and equilibrium products, (iv) a high-order Godunov scheme providing a non-diffusive solution of the governing equations, and (v) an ILES approach whereby adaptive mesh refinement is used to capture the energy-bearing scales of the turbulence on the grid. Three-dimensional numerical simulations of explosion fields from 1.5-g PETN/TNT charges were performed. Explosions in six different chambers were studied: three calorimeters (volumes of 6.6-L, 21.2-L and 40.5-L with L/D = 1), and three tunnels (L/D = 3.8, 4.65 and 12.5 with volumes of 6.3-L)-to investigate the influence of chamber volume and geometry on the combustion process. Predicted pressures histories were quite similar to measured pressure histories for all cases studied. Experimentally, mass-fraction of products, Y-P(exp), reached a peak value of 88% at an excess air ratio of twice stoichiometric, and then decayed with increasing air dilution; mass-fractions Y-P(calc) computed from the numerical simulations followed similar trends. Based on this agreement, we conclude that the dominant effect that controls the rate of TNT combustion with air is the turbulent mixing rate; the ILES approach along with the fast-chemistry model used here adequately captures this effect.

SO PROCEEDINGS OF THE COMBUSTION INSTITUTE
LA English
DT Article
DE Detonation; Non-ideal explosive; Homemade explosive; Precursor; Confiner
AB Detonations in explosive mixtures of ammonium-nitrate-fuel-oil (ANFO) confined by aluminum allow for transport of detonation energy ahead of the detonation front due to the aluminum sound-speed exceeding the detonation velocity. The net effect of this energy transport on the detonation is unclear. It could enhance the detonation by precompressing the explosive near the wall. Alternatively, it could decrease the explosive performance by crushing porosity required for initiation by shock compression or destroying confinement ahead of the detonation. At present, these phenomena are not well understood. But with slowly detonating, non-ideal high explosive (NIHE) systems becoming increasing prevalent, proper understanding and prediction of the performance of these metal-confined NIHE systems is desirable. Experiments are discussed that measured the effect of ANFO detonation energy transported upstream of the front by a 76-mm-inner-diameter aluminum confining tube. Detonation velocity, detonation front-shape, and aluminum response are recorded as a function of confiner wall thickness and length. Detonation shape profiles display little curvature near the confining surface, which is attributed to energy transported upstream modifying the flow. Average detonation velocities were seen to increase with increasing confiner thickness, while wavefront curvature decreased due to the stiffer, subsonic confinement. Significant radial sidewall tube motion was observed immediately ahead of the detonation. Axial motion was also detected, which interfered with the front-shape measurements in some cases. It was concluded that the confiner was able to transport energy ahead of the detonation and that this transport has a definite effect on the detonation by modifying its characteristic shape.

AB This paper presents soot processes of a blend of 23% m-xylene and 77% n-dodecane, which has been selected by several working groups as a surrogate for jet fuel. Fuel sprays were injected into high-temperature, high-pressure ambient conditions that are representative of practical engine combustion. Simultaneous laser extinction (KL) measurement and planar laser-induced incandescence imaging were performed to derive the in situ soot volume fraction. Also, soot particles were extracted from different positions within the reacting jet by means of a thermophoretic probe, and analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to clarify the soot structure and its correlation with the measured soot volume fraction. The same measurements were repeated for the conventional jet fuel to understand the overall performance of the selected surrogate fuel. The soot volume fraction results show that, at fixed ambient conditions, the surrogate fuel produces more soot than the conventional jet fuel. The TEM images show that the soot aggregates are more agglomerated, which may not be easily eliminated by in-cylinder oxidation. The total number of primary particles and the mean primary particle size are higher for the surrogate fuel, consistent with the soot volume fraction trend. Considering that there is similar lift-off length between fuels, the differences in soot level and morphology are caused by molecular structure effects, such as a higher aromatic content. The quantitative soot database obtained from the present study offers data for the validation of soot kinetic models, particularly at high temperature and pressure conditions where little fundamental data exist.

AB Turbulent nitrogen-diluted hydrogen jet diffusion flames with high velocity coaxial air flows are investigated for their NOx emission levels. This study is motivated by the DOE Turbine program's goal of achieving 2 ppm NOx from gas turbine combustors running on diluted high-hydrogen fuels. In this study, effects of coaxial air velocity and momentum are varied while maintaining low overall equivalence ratios to eliminate the effects of combustion product recirculation on flame lengths, flame temperatures, and resulting NOx emission levels. The nature of flame length and NOx emission scaling relationships are found to vary, depending on whether the combined fuel and coaxial air jet is fuel-rich or fuel-lean. In the absence of differential diffusion effects, flame lengths agree well with predicted trends, and NOx emissions levels decrease with increasing coaxial air velocity, as expected. Normalizing the NOx emission index with a flame residence time reveals that a global flame strain based on the difference between the fuel and coaxial air velocities is not a viable scaling parameter, as has traditionally been used. A new scaling relationship that accounts for enhanced mixing via flame length reduction is found to provide an excellent collapse of the data with the correct Damkohler number scaling.

ID BURNING VELOCITIES; IGNITION
AB A detailed chemistry mixed-mode flamelet model for the prediction of combustion in spark-assisted homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engines is presented in this paper.
The complex phenomena of spark-channel processes (turbulent corrugation, multiple restrikes) and of early flame kernel propagation (localized flame kernel formation, non-spherical early flame shapes), both induced by spray-guided spark-ignition combustion initiation, are captured by the recently introduced SparkCIMM ignition model. In this paper, laminar burning velocities and flame thicknesses are calculated along the mean turbulent flame front, using tabulated detailed chemistry flamelet calculations to appropriately consider locally rich, highly diluted, and auto-igniting stratified mixtures. Flame extinction criterions are formulated and incorporated into an extended G-equation flame front tracking scheme. Auto-ignition processes in the unburnt mixture, controlled by the flame-induced pressure and temperature increase, are captured by a recently developed multi-zone flamelet model that accounts for detailed chemistry and effects of scalar mixing on turbulent combustion. The laminar burning velocity is shown to increase significantly as the flame propagates into the chemically reacting mixture within the first stage of auto-ignition. After the initiation of the thermal runaway, however, flame extinction occurs rapidly. These interactions of mixed-mode combustion processes are captured by the presented flamelet model. It is developed based on a time and length scale analysis, revealing a scale separation between the ignition delay of diffusion combustion and the flame time of flame propagation.
The analysis of the mixture preparation process, along with the simulation of turbulent flame front propagation and its extinction, demonstrates that the prediction of combustion in spark-assisted HCCI engines requires the on hand comprehensive mixed-mode combustion model. A comparison of simulation results from this new model with data from experiments and combustion models of reduced physical complexity proofs its qualification. (C) 2010 The Combustion Institute.

TI Effects of EGR and its constituents on HCCI autoignition of ethanol

DE Ethanol; HCCI; Autoignition; EGR
ID 2-STAGE IGNITION FUELS; SINGLE-STAGE
AB The thermodynamic and chemical effects of real EGR, simulated EGR, and individual EGR constituents (N-2, CO2, and H2O) on the HCCI autoignition processes of ethanol have been investigated experimentally and computationally. The results for ethanol were compared in detail with existing data for gasoline, iso-octane, PRF80, and PRF60. The data show that addition of EGR retards the autoignition timing for all five fuels when the intake temperature is maintained constant. However, the amount of retard is dependent on the specific fuel type, with ethanol showing the lowest sensitivity to the addition of clean simulated EGR gases. The response to EGR can be explained by quantifying the various underlying mechanisms.
The results show that the single-stage ignition fuel ethanol is quite sensitive to the reduction of compression heating that occurs with EGR due to the higher heat capacity of the EGR gases compared to air. This high sensitivity to the cooling effect of EGR is similar to that of gasoline and iso-octane, which also are single-stage ignition fuels under these conditions. On the other hand, ethanol is very insensitive to the reduction of O-2 concentration associated with the addition of EGR. Both of these characteristics relate to ethanol's molecular stability - it does not react much until just before the hot-ignition point is reached. Consequently, ethanol has a low intermediate-temperature heat-release rate, which leads to a low temperature-rise rate prior to hot ignition, and therefore a high sensitivity to the cooling effect of EGR. Also, the relative lack of intermediate-temperature heat release prevents [O-2] from having much influence on the temperature rise prior to hot ignition, leading to a low sensitivity of the autoignition timing to changes of [O-2]. Finally, both H2O and trace species have significant ignition-enhancing effects for ethanol that to some degree counteract the retarding effect of EGR. (C) 2010 The Combustion Institute.

TI Tailoring HCCI heat-release rates with partial fuel stratification:
Comparison of two-stage and single-stage-ignition fuels

DE HCCI; Charge stratification; Heat-release rate; Two-stage ignition;
Isooctane
AB This work concerns one of the major issues restricting the application of homogeneous charge compression-ignition (HCCI) engines, overly rapid combustion at high-load conditions, which can lead to engine knock and potential engine damage. To overcome this problem, partial fuel stratification was used, where most fuel was premixed with intake air and the rest of the fuel was directly injected during the compression stroke. To be effective, this technique depends critically on the fuel autoignition chemistry. PRF73, a mixture of 73 vol% isooctane and 27 vol% n-heptane that exhibits two-stage ignition under these conditions, successfully enabled control of the combustion heat-release rate with properly adjusted injection parameters. More than a 70% reduction in the maximum pressure-rise rate (PRRmax) was achieved, compared to the fully premixed case at the same combustion phasing. Meanwhile, combustion remained stable, efficient, and clean. In particular, NOx emissions were kept well below the US-2010 limits. On the other hand, isooctane, which exhibits single-stage ignition under the present conditions, responded much differently to partial fuel stratification. Instead of reducing PRRmax, isooctane partial stratification increased PRRmax and drastically raised NOx emissions and combustion instability. Such differences between single- and two-stage fuels result from the different response of their autoignition rates to the variations in equivalence ratio produced by partial fuel stratification, termed phi-sensitivity.

AB Flame chemiluminescence is widely acknowledged to be an indicator of heat release rate in premixed turbulent flames that are representative of gas turbine combustion. Though heat release rate is an important metric for evaluating combustion strategies in reciprocating engine systems, its correlation with flame chemiluminescence is not well studied. To address this gap an experimental study was carried out in a single-cylinder natural gas fired reciprocating engine that could simulate turbocharged conditions with exhaust gas recirculation. Crank angle resolved spectra (266-795 nm) of flame luminosity were measured for various operational conditions by varying the ignition timing for MBT conditions and by holding the speed at 1800 rpm and Brake Mean effective Pressure (BMEP) at 12 bar. The effect of dilution on CO2* chemiluminescence intensities was studied, by varying the global equivalence ratio (0.6-1.0) and by varying the exhaust gas recirculation rate.
It was attempted to relate the measured chemiluminescence intensities to thermodynamic metrics of importance to engine research - in-cylinder bulk gas temperature and heat release rate (HRR) calculated from measured cylinder pressure signals. The peak of the measured CO2* chemiluminescence intensities coincided with peak pressures within +/- 2 CAD for all test conditions. For each combustion cycle, the peaks of heat release rate, spectral intensity and temperature occurred in that sequence, well separated temporally. The peak heat release rates preceded the peak chemiluminescent emissions by 3.8-9.5 CAD, whereas the peak temperatures trailed by 5.8-15.6 CAD. Such a temporal separation precludes correlations on a crank-angle resolved basis. However, the peak cycle heat release rates and to a lesser extent the peak cycle temperatures correlated well with the chemiluminescent emission from CO2*. Such observations point towards the potential use of flame chemiluminescence to monitor peak bulk gas temperatures as well as peak heat release rates in natural gas fired reciprocating engines.

ID IGNITION
AB Basic engine thermodynamics predicts that spark ignited engine efficiency is a function of both the compression ratio of the engine and the specific heat ratio of the working fluid. In practice the compression ratio of the engine is often limited due to knock. Both higher specific heat ratio and higher compression ratio lead to higher end gas temperatures and increase the likelihood of knock. When the knock limit is not reached, increased heat transfer losses at higher compression ratios can limit efficiency. In this paper, we investigate the role of both the compression ratio and the specific heat ratio on engine efficiency by conducting experiments comparing operation of a single-cylinder variable-compression ratio engine with both hydrogen-air and hydrogen-oxygen-argon mixtures. For low load operation, it is found that the hydrogen-oxygen-argon mixtures result in higher indicated thermal efficiencies. Peak efficiency for the hydrogen-oxygen-argon mixtures is found at compression ratio 5.5, whereas for the hydrogen-air mixture with an equivalence ratio of 0.24 the peak efficiency is found at compression ratio 13. The spark timing when operating the engine with hydrogen-oxygen-argon was found to be knock limited for compression ratios above 4.5. However, for operation with hydrogen-air the spark timing was not limited by knock. We apply a three-zone model to help explain the effects of specific heat ratio and compression ratio on efficiency. Operation with hydrogen-oxygen-argon mixtures at low loads is more efficient because the lower compression ratio results in a substantially larger portion of the gas residing in the adiabatic core rather than in the boundary layer and crevices, leading to less heat transfer and more complete combustion.

AB An approach directed at rapid sequestration and disposal of technetium-99 from UREX (uranium extraction) liquid waste streams is presented. This stream is generated during reprocessing of light-water-reactor spent fuel to recycle the actinides and separate fission products for waste disposal. U and Tc are co-extracted from a nitric acid solution using tri-n-butylphosphate in dodecane, so that Tc(VII) is present in the strip solution after the actinide separations. The goal is to separate uranyl from the pertechnetate in this U-Tc stream and then sequester Tc in the metallic form. Our approach is based on reductive stripping of pertechnetate either from aqueous solution (for column extractions) or organic solvents (for liquid-liquid extractions). In both of these methods, metallic zinc in the presence of formic acid serves as a reducing agent, and 99Tc is recovered as a co-precipitate of Zn(II) hydroxide and hydrous Tc(IV) oxide, with a Zn:Tc ratio between 1:1 and 2:1mol/mol. This solid residue can be reduced to a Zn-Tc alloy by high temperature (500-700 degrees C) hydrogenation, and the resulting heterophase alloy can be added to a metallic Fe-Zr-Mo waste form that is processed at 1600 degrees C, with subsequent loss of Zn by evaporation. Alternatively, Zn and Tc can be separated and 99Tc sequestered as NH4TcO4 for further reduction to Tc(0) metal. The aqueous Zn reduction process removes 90% of 99Tc per cycle. The nonaqueous Zn reduction in 1:1 methanol - formic acid removes 60-70% of 99Tc per cycle, depending on the extracting agent (such as a tetraalkylammonium nitrate). The extracting agent is recycled in the process. The pertechnetate is extracted from the aqueous phase into 1,2-dichloroethane, which is removed by evaporation and reused. The residue is either calcined and steam reformed to Tc(0) or processed by the nonaqueous Zn reduction method. These methods can be used not only to remove the pertechnetate from the U-Tc product stream, but also to sequester the pertechnetate from aqueous waste streams generated through the processes described in this paper, thereby closing the cycle. The same approaches can be used to close the 99Tc cycle for other methods that are currently being developed at Los Alamos and Argonne National Laboratories.

AB Water in the subsurface of the Earth's cold regions-and possibly the subsurface of Mars-resides in the liquid, vapor, and ice phases. However, relatively few simulations addressing full three-phase, non-isothermal water dynamics in below-freezing porous media have been undertaken. This paper presents a non-isothermal, three-phase approach to modeling water migration in partially frozen porous media. Conservation equations for water (as ice, liquid, and vapor) and a single gas species (in the gas phase and dissolved in water) are coupled to a heat transport equation and solved by a finite-volume method with fully implicit time stepping. Particular attention is given to the method of spatial differencing when the pore space is partially filled with ice. The numerical model is able to reproduce freezing-induced water redistribution observed in laboratory experiments. Simulations of Earth permafrost dynamics and of the formation and evolution of a planetary-scale cryosphere on Mars demonstrate the new capabilities.

AB Stream-dwelling fish face highly-variable environmental conditions from fall to winter due to fluctuations in water temperatures, discharge, and ice conditions. We provide an in-depth description of the interactions between these complex environmental conditions and behaviors of stream-dwelling salmonids during winter. Fisheries managers should be aware of the conditions that fish confront during winter in order to make appropriate management decisions. Diverse habitats, including deep pools with low water velocities, coarse rock substrate, and abundant cover, as well as side channels and backwaters, aid in the survival of overwintering fish. The inflow of relatively warm groundwater into the water column can be an important factor affecting winter habitat. Considering the length of winter and the vulnerability of fish during winter, a broad understanding of winter ice process and their effects on stream dwelling fish can aid in the preservation and improvement of winter habitats.

A Case Study

LA English
DT Article
ID COVER
AB Attention is currently being given to methods that assess the ecological condition of rangelands throughout the United States. Bare ground is being considered by a number of agencies and resource specialists as a key indicator that can be evaluated over a broad area. Traditional methods of measuring bare ground rely on field technicians collecting data along a line transect or from a plot. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) provide an alternative to collecting field data, can monitor a large area in a relatively short period of time, and in many cases, can enhance the safety and time required to collect data. In this study, both fixed-wing and helicopter UAVs were used to measure bare ground in a sagebrush steppe ecosystem. The data were collected with digital imagery and read using the image analysis software, Sample-Point. The approach was tested over seven different plots and compared against traditional field methods to evaluate accuracy for assessing bare ground. The field plots were located on the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) site west of Idaho Falls, Idaho, in locations where there is very little disturbance by humans and the area is grazed only by wildlife. Mean fixed-wing and helicopter UAV bare ground values were within 1% of field estimates. This study shows that if a high degree of detail and data accuracy is desired, a helicopter UAV may be a good platform. If the data collection objective is to assess broad-scale landscape level changes, the collection of imagery with a fixed-wing system is probably more appropriate.

AB The stress-temperature-lifetime response of Si-Ti-C-O fiber-bonded ceramic (Tyrannohex (TM)) and sintered SiC fiber-bonded ceramic (SA-Tyrannohex (TM)) materials as investigated in air from 500 to 1150 degrees C and 500 to 1400 degrees C, respectively. The apparent threshold stress in bending of Si-Ti-C-O fiber-bonded ceramic with a lifetime of more than 1000 h was about 175 MPa in the 500-1150 degrees C temperature range. In the case of sintered SiC fiber-bonded ceramic, when the applied stress was below an apparent threshold stress in bending (e.g., similar to 225 MPa) for tests conducted < 1150 degrees C, no failures were observed for lifetimes up to >= 1000 h. While, at the temperature of >= 1300 degrees C, the apparent threshold stress in bending decreased to 175 MPa. The decrease in strength was caused by grain growth, which was confirmed from scanning electron microscopic fractography. Both fiber-bonded ceramics exhibited much higher durability than a commercial SiC/SiC composite at temperatures above 500 degrees C. In addition, results suggested that the sintered SiC fiber-bonded ceramic (SA-Tyrannohex) exhibited better mechanical performance than a Hi-Nicalon/MI SiC composite with BN/SiC fiber coating at temperatures above 1300 degrees C.

AB A cross-polarization confocal microscopy (CPCM) method was developed to image subsurface flaws in optically translucent silicon nitride (Si3N4) ceramics. Unlike conventional confocal microscopy, which measures reflected light so is applicable only to transparent and semi-transparent materials, CPCM detects scattered light from subsurface while filtering out the reflected light from ceramic surface. For subsurface imaging, the refractive-index mismatch between imaging (air) and imaged (ceramic) medium may cause image distortion and reduce resolution in the depth direction. This effect, characterized by an axial scaling factor (ASF), was analyzed and experimentally determined for glass and Si3N4 materials. The experimental CPCM system was used to image Hertzian C-cracks generated by various indentation loads in the subsurface of a Si3N4 specimen. It was demonstrated that CPCM may provide detailed information of subsurface cracks, such as crack angle and path, and subsurface microstructural variations.

AB R-hadrons are only one of many possible stable colored states that the LHC might produce. All such particles would provide a spectacular, if somewhat unusual, signal at ATLAS and CMS. Produced in large numbers and leaving a characteristic signature throughout all layers of the detector, including the muon chamber, they could be straightforward to discover even with low luminosity. Though such long lived colored particles (LLCPs) can be realized in many extensions of the Standard Model, most analyses of their phenomenology have focused only on R-hadrons. In order to distinguish among the possibilities, fundamental quantum numbers of the new states must be measured. In this paper, we demonstrate how to identify the SU(3)(C) charge and spin of such new particles at the LHC.

AB We analyze the collider signals of composite scalars that emerge in certain little Higgs models and models of vectorlike confinement. Similar to the decay of the pion into photon pairs, these scalars mainly decay through anomaly-induced interactions into electroweak gauge bosons, leading to a distinct signal with three or more photons in the final state. We study the standard model backgrounds for these signals, and find that the LHC can discover these models over a large range of parameter space with 30 fb(-1) at 14 TeV. An early discovery at the current 7TeV run is possible in some regions of parameter space. We also discuss possibilities to measure the spin of the particles in the gamma gamma and Z gamma decay channels.

TI An information-theoretic, vector-space-model approach to cross-language

DT Article
ID LATENT SEMANTIC ANALYSIS; AUTOMATIC TEXT RETRIEVAL
AB In this article, we demonstrate several novel ways in which insights from information theory (IT) and computational linguistics (CL) can be woven into a vector-space-model (VSM) approach to information retrieval (IR). Our proposals focus, essentially, on three areas: preprocessing (morphological analysis), term weighting, and alternative geometrical models to the widely used term-by-document matrix. The latter include (1) PARAFAC2 decomposition of a term-by-document-by-language tensor, and (2) eigenvalue decomposition of a term-by-term matrix (inspired by Statistical Machine Translation). We evaluate all proposals, comparing them to a 'standard' approach based on Latent Semantic Analysis, on a multilingual document clustering task. The evidence suggests that proper consideration of IT within IR is indeed called for: in all cases, our best results are achieved using the information-theoretic variations upon the standard approach. Furthermore, we show that different information-theoretic options can be combined for still better results. A key function of language is to encode and convey information, and contributions of IT to the field of CL can be traced back a number of decades. We think that our proposals help bring I R and CL more into line with one another. In our conclusion, we suggest that the fact that our proposals yield empirical improvements is not coincidental given that they increase the theoretical transparency of VSM approaches to ER; on the contrary, they help shed light on why aspects of these approaches work as they do.

AB Grain boundaries (GBs) in high-temperature superconductors suppress the critical current density (J(c)) dramatically, with the Jc decreasing exponentially with GB angle, especially when GB misorientation exceeds 4 degrees. To reduce the number of high-angle GBs, fabrication of biaxially textured, superconducting wires via heteroepitaxial growth on cube-textured metals has been widely investigated worldwide. Such wires exhibit very high Jc in applied magnetic fields despite having a majority of GBs with total misorientations in the range 4-8 degrees. Here, we show that GB networks in these wires have numerous GBs with out-of-plane misorientations greater than 4 degrees but few boundaries having in-plane misorientations greater than 4 degrees. Transport measurements on bicrystal GBs show that GBs with out-of-plane tilts between 4 degrees and 8 degrees are well linked. Together, these results explain the high performance of superconducting films on cube-textured metals.

AB Charged polysaccharides play an essential role in biology and also serve as a promising class of biomaterials. We demonstrate, at the single molecule level, a simple method to cross-link anionic polysaccharides using polyions as electrostatic staples; positive charges on the polyion bridge opposite charges on the polysaccharide and trap its conformation. Cross-linking is detected by measuring step-like conformational transitions when the polysaccharides are stretched using an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM). The probability of cross-linking can be tuned by either titrating or screening the polysaccharide charges; this probability is measured from the width of transitions in the AFM force-extension curves. Polyion mediated cross-linking can be used to reversibly fold polysaccharides and engineer carbohydrates as a stimuli-responsive material that responds to changes in pH and ionic environment.

AB The population balance model represents a time-dependent formulation of mass conservation for a ground biomass that flows through a set of sieves. The model is suitable for predicting the change in size and distribution of ground biomass while taking into account the flow rate processes of particles through a grinder. This article describes the development and application of this model to a switchgrass grinding operation. The mass conservation formulation of the model contains two parameters: breakage rate and breakage ratio. A laboratory knife mill was modified to act as a batch or flow-through grinder. The ground switchgrass was analyzed over a set of six Tyler sieves with apertures ranging from 5.66 mm (top sieve) to 1 mm (bottom sieve). The breakage rate was estimated from the sieving tests. For estimating the breakage ratio, each of the six fractions was further ground and sieved to 11 fractions on a set of sieves with apertures ranging from 5.66 to 0.25 mm (and pan). These data formed a matrix of values for determining the breakage ratio. Using the two estimated parameters, the transient population balance model was solved numerically. Results indicated that the population balance model generally underpredicted the fractions remaining on sieves with 5.66, 4.00, and 2.83 mm apertures and overpredicted fractions remaining on sieves with 2.00, 1.41, and 1.00 mm apertures. These trends were similar for both the batch and flow-through grinder configurations. The root mean square of residuals (RSE), representing the difference between experimental and simulated mass of fractions, was 0.32 g for batch grinding and 0.1 g for flow-through grinding. The breakage rate exhibited a linear function of the logarithm of particle size, with a regression coefficient of 0.99.

AB The discovery of high temperature superconductivity in layered systems has evoked a heated discussion about the microscopic electron (hole) pairing mechanism. In particular, the proximity of these systems to magnetic phases has been taken as evidence for a purely electronic mechanism. However, structural anomalies and unconventional isotope effects suggest that the lattice plays a crucial role and must be incorporated in modeling the mechanism. Here we show that polarizability effects and Jahn-Teller centers are of special importance, since these enable dynamical charge transfer, interband interactions, polaron and bipolaron formation. In this respect the layered superconductors approach ferroelectrics, where dynamical covalency is known to trigger the structural instability.

AB Counterflow virtual impaction is used to inertially separate cloud elements from inactivated aerosol. Previous airborne, ground-based, and laboratory studies using this technique exhibit artifacts that are not fully explained by the impaction theory. We have performed laboratory studies that show small particles can be carried across the inertial barrier of the counterflow by collision and/or coalescence or riding the wake of larger particles with sufficient inertia. We have also performed theoretical calculations to show that aerodynamic forces associated with the requisite acceleration and deceleration of particles within a counterflow virtual impactor can lead to breakup. The implication of these processes on studies using this technique is discussed.

TI Performance of the HOMME dynamical core in the aqua-planet configuration
of NCAR CAM4: equatorial waves
SO ANNALES GEOPHYSICAE
LA English
DT Article
DE Meteorology and atmospheric dynamics; Tropical meteorology
AB A new atmospheric dynamical core, named the High Order Method Modeling Environment (HOMME), has been recently included in the NCAR-Community Climate System Model version 4 (CCSM4). It is a petascale capable high-order element-based conservative dynamical core developed on a cubed-sphere grid. We have examined the model simulations with HOMME using the aqua-planet mode of CAM4 (atmospheric component of CCSM4) and evaluated its performance in simulating the equatorial waves, considered a crucial element of climate variability. For this we compared the results with two other established models in CAM4 framework, which are the finite-volume (FV) and Eulerian spectral (EUL) dynamical cores. Although the gross features seem to be comparable, important differences have been found among the three dynamical cores. The phase speed of Kelvin waves in HOMME is faster and more satisfactory than those in FV and EUL. The higher phase speed is attributed to an increased large-scale precipitation in the upper troposphere and a more top-heavy heating structure. The variance of the n = 1 equatorial Rossby waves is underestimated by all three of them, but comparatively HOMME simulations are more reasonable. For the n = 0 eastward inertio-gravity waves, the variances are weak and phase speeds are too slow, scaled to shallow equivalent depths. However, the variance in HOMME is relatively more compared to the two other dynamical cores. The mixed Rossby-gravity waves are feeble in all the three cases. In summary, model simulations using HOMME are reasonably good, with some improvement relative to FV and EUL in capturing some of the important characteristics associated with equatorial waves.

We, in our innermost aspect, are our minds, and, strange as it may seem, our ideas about the nature of our minds are rooted in astronomy. It is not that our minds themselves are rooted in the stars, instead of in our brains. It is rather that our ideas about our minds are rooted in science, and that our basic science is rooted in astronomy.

AB As part of the international project entitled "African Monsoon Multidisciplinary Analysis (AMMA)", NAMMA (NASA AMMA) aimed to gain a better understanding of the relationship between the African Easterly Waves (AEWs), the Sahara Air Layer (SAL), and tropical cyclogenesis. The NAMMA airborne field campaign was based out of the Cape Verde Islands during the peak of the hurricane season, i.e., August and September 2006. Multiple Sahara dust layers were sampled during 62 encounters in the eastern portion of the hurricane main development region, covering both the eastern North Atlantic Ocean and the western Saharan desert (i.e., 5-22 degrees N and 10-35 degrees W). The centers of these layers were located at altitudes between 1.5 and 3.3 km and the layer thickness ranged from 0.5 to 3 km. Detailed dust microphysical and optical properties were characterized using a suite of in-situ instruments aboard the NASA DC-8 that included a particle counter, an Ultra-High Sensitivity Aerosol Spectrometer, an Aerodynamic Particle Sizer, a nephelometer, and a Particle Soot Absorption Photometer. The NAAMA sampling inlet has a size cut (i.e., 50% transmission efficiency size) of approximately 4 mu m in diameter for dust particles, which limits the representativeness of the NAMMA observational findings. The NAMMA dust observations showed relatively low particle number densities, ranging from 268 to 461 cm(-3), but highly elevated volume density with an average at 45 mu m(3) cm(-3). NAMMA dust particle size distributions can be well represented by tri-modal lognormal regressions. The estimated volume median diameter (VMD) is averaged at 2.1 mu m with a small range of variation regardless of the vertical and geographical sampling locations. The Angstrom Exponent assessments exhibited strong wavelength dependence for absorption but a weak one for scattering. The single scattering albedo was estimated at 0.97 +/- 0.02. The imaginary part of the refractive index for Sahara dust was estimated at 0.0022, with a range from 0.0015 to 0.0044. Closure analysis showed that observed scattering coefficients are highly correlated with those calculated from spherical Mie-Theory and observed dust particle size distributions. These values are generally consistent with literature values reported from studies with similar particle sampling size range.

AB Coupled-carbon-climate simulations are an essential tool for predicting the impact of human activity onto the climate and biogeochemistry. Here we incorporate prognostic desert dust and anthropogenic aerosols into the CCSM3.1 coupled carbon-climate model and explore the resulting interactions with climate and biogeochemical dynamics through a series of transient anthropogenic simulations (20th and 21st centuries) and sensitivity studies. The inclusion of prognostic aerosols into this model has a small net global cooling effect on climate but does not significantly impact the globally averaged carbon cycle; we argue that this is likely to be because the CCSM3.1 model has a small climate feedback onto the carbon cycle. We propose a mechanism for including desert dust and anthropogenic aerosols into a simple carbon-climate feedback analysis to explain the results of our and previous studies. Inclusion of aerosols has statistically significant impacts on regional climate and biogeochemistry, in particular through the effects on the ocean nitrogen cycle and primary productivity of altered iron inputs from desert dust deposition.

By incorporating a coupled set of Cahn-Hilliard and Allen-Cahn equations, the model captures the processes of point defect generation and recombination, annihilation of defects at sinks, as well as void nucleation and growth in the presence of grain boundaries. Illustrative results are presented that characterize the rate of void growth or shrinkage due to supersaturated vacancy or interstitial concentrations, void nucleation and growth kinetics due to cascade-induced defect production, as well as void denuded and peak zones adjacent to grain boundaries.

The techniques discussed involve the solution of inverse problems, formulated using both optimization-based and Bayesian approaches. The forward modeling capability is handled using a specially developed hull structural analysis tool, CU-BEN, while the solution of the inverse problem is handled using stochastic search methods that are part of a dedicated inverse solution algorithm "toolbox," CU-PSST. Results from the application of these tools to problems of detecting section loss in hull plating due to corrosion, and isolating damaged framing due to an internal blast, are discussed.

AB The p-regions problem involves the aggregation or clustering of n small areas into p spatially contiguous regions while optimizing some criteria. The main objective of this article is to explore possible avenues for formulating this problem as a mixed integer-programming (MIP) problem. The critical issue in formulating this problem is to ensure that each region is a spatially contiguous cluster of small areas. We introduce three MIP models for solving the p regions problem. Each model minimizes the sum of dissimilarities between all pairs of areas within each region while guaranteeing contiguity. Three strategies designed to ensure contiguity are presented: (1) an adaptation of the Miller, Tucker, and Zemlin tour-breaking constraints developed for the traveling salesman problem; (2) the use of ordered-area assignment variables based upon an extension of an approach by Cova and Church for the geographical site design problem; and (3) the use of flow constraints based upon an extension of work by Shirabe. We test the efficacy of each formulation as well as specify a strategy to reduce overall problem size.

AB Antifuses are electronic devices that can be irreversibly converted from a high-resistance state to a low-resistance state. Thus, they are ideal candidates for one-time-programmable many-times-readable nonvolatile memories. In this paper, the reliability and the programming characteristics of Si-rich SiNx antifuses have been studied using time-dependent dielectric breakdown and pulse-breakdown measurements on both single-device test structures and full read-only memories. Contrary to measurements on thick films in which the Poole-Frenkel barrier lowering dominates breakdown, these measurements on fully processed and integrated antifuses indicate that a Fowler-Nordheim-like mechanism governs both programming and long-term reliability.

AB Two effective approaches for obtaining ratchet boundaries of a structure undergoing cyclic loads are presented. The approaches use limit analysis of a structure whose yield surface is modified according to the cyclic load. In the first approach, Uniform Modified Yield (UMY) surface is used. UMY approach reduces the Mises-based cylindrical yield surface by Mises stress of the cyclic stress amplitude. UMY method was slightly conservative, and sometimes overly conservative, especially at high ratio of cyclic load to primary steady load. Conservatism, caused by the assumption that the modified yield surface remains isotropic, is eliminated by considering anisotropic Load Dependent Yield Modification approach, LDYM. This approach reduces yield strength based on relative orientation of steady primary and cyclic stress tensors. This work assumed elastic perfect plastic material behavior, with no si rain hardening for both original and modified yield surfaces. Ratchet boundaries of several structures, published in literature, were obtained using UMY and LDYM approaches and verified against published data and results of conventional methods. Numerical procedures for UMY and LDYM approaches are extremely fast relative to conventional numerical schemes, and are not restricted by complex geometry or loading. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

AB An improved synthetic method has been designed and demonstrated to reproducibly generate hollow gold nanospheres (HGNs) with strong surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption in the near infrared (NIR). The HGNs have been synthesized via galvanic replacement of cobalt with gold while utilizing different amounts of poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) as a template stabilizing agent. Ninety percent of syntheses performed by this modified method resulted in HGNs with an SPR near 800 nm, which is highly desirable for biomedical applications such as photothermal ablation (PTA) therapy, while other polymers (PAA and PEG) did not. Based on absorption and TEM measurements, PVP stabilizes the cobalt template particles via carbonyl-induced stabilization that slows nucleation and growth of the gold shell allowing for the generation of a reproducibly thin shell, thereby inducing a significant red shift of the SPR to 800 nm. The results are significant to various potential applications of HGNs, e.g. cancer therapy and sensing.

AB Gamma-ray holdup measurements of a Mossbauer spectroscopy instrument are described and modeled. In the qualitative acquisitions obtained in a low background area of Savannah River National Laboratory, only Am-241 and Np-237 activity were observed. The Am-241 was known to be the instrumental activation source, while the Np-237 is clearly observed as a source of contamination internal to the instrument. The two sources of activity are modeled separately in two acquisition configurations using two separate modeling tools. The results agree well, demonstrating a content of (1980 +/- 150) mu Ci Am-241 and (110 +/- 50) mu Ci of Np-237.

AB The structure of anhydrous nickel chloride in the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium chloride and aluminum chloride has been investigated with extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) in both Lewis acid and Lewis base solutions. The EXAFS data of NiCl2 center dot 6H(2)O crystals were also recorded and analyzed to demonstrate the difference file technique. The difference file technique is used to obtain the structural information for the very closely spaced coordination shells of chloride and oxygen in NiCl2 center dot 6H(2)O and they are found to agree very closely with the X-ray diffraction data. The difference file technique is then used to analyze the nickel chloride in the ionic liquid solutions. Even though anhydrous NiCl2 is more soluble in the basic solution than in the acidic solution, the EXAFS data show a single coordination of four chlorides in a tetrahedron around the nickel atom in the basic solution. In a weak acid solution, there are six chlorides in a single octahedral coordination shell around the nickel. However, in a strong acid solution, in addition to the octahedral chloride-coordination shell, there is a second coordination shell of eight aluminum atoms in the form of a simple cube.

AB First-principles calculations have been employed to assist in the development of a three-zone model for hydrogen uptake promoted by sulfur on the (111) surface plane of Ni. The three zones suggested by previous work of Protopopoff and Marcus [J. Vac. Sci. Technol. A, 5, 944 (1987).] consist of (1) a site-blocking zone, where sulfur prevents hydrogen occupation at four adsorption sites per sulfur atom, (2) a promotion zone, where nearby sulfur raises the chemical potential of hydrogen in the six next-nearest-neighbor sites and beyond these two zones, (3) a free zone in which there is no influence of the adsorbed sulfur. The model is based on adsorption energies of hydrogen on Ni(111) as well as the sulfur-hydrogen interaction energies calculated from density functional theory. The results from the model indicate that the maximum promotion for hydrogen uptake occurs when up to 0.1 monolayer (ML) coverage of sulfur is present, and beyond this limit the site-blocking features of sulfur begin to dominate, thus reducing the available surface area down to 0 at 0.25 ML of sulfur.

TI Mechanisms of Schottky Barrier Control on n-Type Germanium Using Ge3N4
Interlayers
SO JOURNAL OF THE ELECTROCHEMICAL SOCIETY
LA English
DT Article
ID SILICON; HEIGHT
AB The influence of a few monolayers of crystalline and amorphous Ge3N4 on the Schottky barrier height of n-type Ge has been investigated. Low temperature capacitance-voltage measurements are used to accurately determine the barrier height. Both amorphous and epitaxial Ge3N4 effectively eliminate pinning of the Fermi level at the metal/Ge interface. Metal/Ge3N4/n-Ge contacts therefore show a linear dependence of the Schottky barrier height with metal work function. Our results indicate that the Fermi level unpinning is achieved mainly due to the passivation of interface states related to defects at the metal/Ge interface. Aluminum on amorphous and epitaxial Ge3N4 delivers barrier heights of 0.09+/-0.05 and 0.0+/-0.1 eV, respectively, resulting in Ohmic behavior. The formation of epitaxial Ge3N4 requires temperatures above 600 degrees C, whereas amorphous layers can be formed at much lower temperatures. Amorphous Ge3N4 can therefore be used to form Ohmic contacts at a low thermal budget. (C) 2011 The Electrochemical Society. [DOI: 10.1149/1.3545703] All rights reserved.

AB Nonlinear effects are known to occur in light sources when the wiggler parameter, or normalized 4-potential, A = e root-A(mu)A(mu)/m(0)c, approaches unity. In this paper, it is shown that nonlinear spectral features can appear at arbitrarily low values of A if the fractional bandwidth of the undulator, Delta phi(-1), is sufficiently small and satisfies the condition A(2)Delta phi similar to 1. Consequences for the spectral brightness of Compton scattering light sources are outlined. Compton and Thomson scattering theories are compared with the Klein-Nishina cross-section formula to highlight differences in the case of narrow band gamma-ray operation. A weakly nonlinear Compton scattering theory is developed in one (plane wave) and three (local plane wave approximation) dimensions. Analytical models are presented and benchmarked against numerical calculations solving the Lorentz force equation with a fourth-order Runge-Kutta algorithm. Finally, narrow band gamma-ray spectra are calculated for realistic laser and electron beams. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3536457]

AB The presence of the magnetic stochasticity induced by resonant magnetic perturbations in fusion experiments leads to radial electron particle and heat diffusivities which are substantially different from quasilinear predictions. In this paper, using neoclassical simulation, the effects of the self-consistent electric field on the radial electron particle and heat transports are investigated. The presence of stochasticity produces positive contribution to the radial electric field, consistent with experimental observations. Bringing both radial and poloidal components of the electric field into the simulation might help recover some of the trends observed in the experiment and is currently under investigation.

ID NONUNIFORM PLASMA; DISCHARGES; PHYSICS; WAVES
AB Measurements of the radio frequency (rf) field structure, plasma density, and electron temperature are presented for a 1 kW argon helicon plasma source. The measured profiles change considerably when the equilibrium magnetic field is reversed. The measured rf fields are identified as fields of radially localized helicon waves, which propagate in the axial direction. The rf field structure is compared to the results of two-dimensional cold plasma full-wave simulations for the measured density profiles. Electron collision frequency is adjusted in the simulations to match the simulated and measured field profiles. The resulting frequency is anomalously high, which is attributed to the excitation of an ion-acoustic instability. The calculated power deposition is insensitive to the collision frequency and accounts for most of the power supplied by the rf-generator. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics.

AB Reduced model simulations of turbulence in the edge and scrape-off-layer (SOL) region of a spherical torus or tokamak plasma are employed to address the physics of the scrape-off-layer heat-flux width. The simulation model is an electrostatic two-dimensional fluid turbulence model, applied in the plane perpendicular to the magnetic field at the outboard midplane of the torus. The model contains curvature-driven-interchange modes, sheath losses, and both perpendicular turbulent diffusive and convective (blob) transport. These transport processes compete with classical parallel transport to set the SOL width. Midplane SOL profiles of density, temperature, and parallel heat flux are obtained from the simulation and compared with experimental results from the National Spherical Torus Experiment [S. M. Kaye et al., Phys. Plasmas 8, 1977 (2001)] to study the scaling of the heat-flux width with power and plasma current. It is concluded that midplane turbulence is the main contributor to the SOL heat-flux width for the low power H-mode discharges studied, while additional physics is required to fully explain the plasma current scaling of the SOL heat-flux width observed experimentally in higher power discharges. Intermittent separatrix-spanning convective cells are found to be the main mechanism that sets the near-SOL width in the simulations. The roles of sheared flows and blob trapping versus emission are discussed. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3526676]

SIMULATIONS; SPECTRUM; ENERGY; LAWS
AB In the study of incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence the correlation lengths along the directions parallel and perpendicular to the local mean magnetic field may be defined by iso-energy surfaces derived from second order structure functions. The correlation time of the turbulence may be defined in a similar manner by means of a temporal second order structure function. Moreover, there is a natural correspondence between the lengthscales of fluctuations with a given energy and the timescale of fluctuations of the same energy so that each iso-energy surface is associated with a unique pair of parallel and perpendicular correlation lengths and a unique correlation time. In the case when the magnetic Prandtl number is unity, Pr(m) equivalent to nu/eta = 1, it is shown that the correlation time tau associated with an iso-energy contour of energy E is equal to the energy cascade time of the turbulence in the sense that E/tau similar to epsilon, where epsilon is the energy cascade rate. For balanced MHD turbulence, turbulence with vanishing cross-helicity, both the Goldreich and Sridhar theory and Boldyrev's theory are shown to have this same property. An attempt is made to generalize these ideas to imbalanced MHD turbulence, turbulence with nonvanishing cross-helicity. It is shown that if the normalized cross-helicity sigma(c) is a constant in the inertial range, independent of wavenumber, then one obtains a model in which the energy cascade times of the two Elsasser fields are equal throughout the inertial range, that is, tau(+)/tau(-) = 1. This result appears to be contradicted by numerical simulations and, therefore, the generalization to imbalanced turbulence discussed here requires further development; this is an important unsolved problem.

AB Phenomenological theories of strong incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence derived by Goldreich and Sridhar (GS) in 1995 and by Boldyrev in 2006 are only applicable to turbulence with vanishing cross-helicity. In this study, these two theories are generalized to treat turbulence with nonvanishing cross-helicity in such a way that the relation (w(+)/w(-))(2) = (epsilon(+)/epsilon(-))(2) observed in numerical simulations is satisfied. The average energy (second order structure function) in the generalized GS theory is E(r(perpendicular to)) = phi(1)(sigma(c))(epsilon r(perpendicular to))(2/3) and that in the generalized Boldyrev theory is E(r(perpendicular to)) = phi(2)(sigma(c))(v(A)epsilon r(perpendicular to))(1/2), where the function phi(sigma(c)) describes the dependence on the normalized cross-helicity sigma(c). The form of the function phi(sigma(c)) is derived through a renormalization of the variable sigma(c) that yields a one parameter family of solutions. The theory derived by Lithwick, Goldreich, and Sridhar (LGS) in 2007 is a special case of the generalized GS theory derived here; however, other generalizations of the GS theory are obtained that have a different cross-helicity dependence than the LGS theory. This new class of solutions and similar generalizations of Boldyrev's theory are investigated to see how the energy cascade rate epsilon changes as a function of sigma(c) when the energy at a given scale is held fixed. The generalization of Boldyrev's theory derived here is applicable to homogeneous MHD turbulence in the solar wind, for example, and can be used to obtain the turbulent dissipation rate epsilon from measurements of the energy spectrum and the normalized cross-helicity.

AB Fluctuations in the edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) of L-mode plasmas in the National Spherical Torus Experiment [Kaye et al., Phys. Plasmas 8, 1977 (2001)] as observed by the gas puff imaging (GPI) diagnostic are studied. Calculation of local, time resolved velocity maps using the hybrid optical flow and pattern matching velocimetry code enables analysis of turbulent flow and shear behavior. Periodic reversals in the direction of the poloidal flow near the separatrix are observed. Also, poloidal velocities and their radial shearing rate are found to be well correlated with the fraction of D(alpha) light contained in the SOL, which acts as a measure of turbulent bursts. The spectra of GPI intensity and poloidal velocity both have a strong feature near 3 kHz, which appears to correspond with turbulent bursts. This mode exhibits a poloidal structure with poloidal wavenumber of 7.7 m(-1) for GPI intensity and 3.4 m(-1) for poloidal velocity, and the poloidal velocity fluctuations near 3 kHz remain coherent over length scales in excess of the turbulent scales. Furthermore, recent SOL turbulence simulations find a parameter regime that exhibits periodic bursty transport and shares many qualitative similarities with the experimental data. Strong correlations between the shearing rate and the turbulent bursts are observed for time periods of similar to 2 ms, but the relationship is complicated by several factors. Finally, measurements of the radial profiles of the Reynolds shear stresses are reported. These radial profiles exhibit many similarities for several shots, and a region with positive radial gradient is seen to be coincident with local flow shear. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics.

ID CONSERVATION-LAWS; SCHEMES; SYSTEMS; HYBRID
AB It is shown that the two-fluid model under a generalized Ohm's law formulation and the resistive magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) can both be described as relaxation systems. In the relaxation model, the under-resolved stiff source terms constrain the dynamics of a set of hyperbolic equations to give the correct asymptotic solution. When applied to the collisional two-fluid model, the relaxation of fast time scales associated with displacement current and finite electron mass allows for a natural transition from a system where Ohm's law determines the current density to a system where Ohm's law determines the electric field. This result is used to derive novel algorithms, which allow for multiscale simulation of low and high frequency extended-MHD physics. This relaxation formulation offers an efficient way to implicitly advance the Hall term and naturally simulate a plasma-vacuum interface without invoking phenomenological models. The relaxation model is implemented as an extended-MHD code, which is used to analyze pulsed power loads such as wire arrays and ablating foils. Two-dimensional simulations of pulsed power loads are compared for extended-MHD and MHD. For these simulations, it is also shown that the relaxation model properly recovers the resistive-MHD limit.

AB Stable acceleration of relativistic ions by the radiation pressure of a superintense, circularly polarized laser pulse with sharp front is investigated by analytical modeling and particle-in-cell simulation. For foils with given density and thickness, the suitable steepness of the laser front is found to suppress instabilities and efficiently drive a stable monoenergetic ion beam. With a laser pulse of peak amplitude a(0)=200, a proton beam of energy about 10 GeV can be generated. The dynamics of the laser-compressed electron layer and the ions in the hole-boring stage are investigated.

AB Naturally occurring radioactive material in containerized cargo challenges the state of the art in national and international efforts to detect illicit nuclear and radiological material in transported containers. Current systems are being evaluated and new systems envisioned to provide the high probability of detection necessary to thwart potential threats, combined with extremely low nuisance and false alarm rates necessary to maintain the flow of commerce impacted by the enormous volume of commodities imported in shipping containers. Maintaining flow of commerce also means that inspection must be rapid, requiring relatively non-intrusive, indirect measurements of cargo from outside containers to the extent possible. With increasing information content in such measurements, it is natural to ask how the information might be combined to improve detection. Toward this end, we present an approach to estimating isotopic activity of naturally occurring radioactive material in cargo grouped by commodity type, combining container manifest data with radiography and gamma-ray spectroscopy aligned to location along the container. The heart of this approach is our statistical model of gamma-ray counts within peak regions of interest, which captures the effects of background suppression, counting noise, convolution of neighboring cargo contributions, and down-scattered photons to provide estimates of counts due to decay of specific radioisotopes in cargo alone. Coupled to that model, we use a mechanistic model of self-attenuated radiation flux to estimate the isotopic activity within cargo, segmented by location within each container, that produces those counts. We test our approach by applying it to a set of measurements taken at the Port of Seattle in 2006. This approach to synthesizing disparate available data streams and extraction of cargo characteristics, while relying on several simplifying assumptions and approximations, holds the potential to support improvement of detection systems using current capabilities and to enable simulation-based evaluation of new candidate detection systems.

AB Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) cavities provide enhanced efficiency and reduced energy consumption in present-day particle accelerators. Niobium is the material of choice for SRF cavities due to its high critical temperature and critical magnetic field. In order to understand why certain treatments, especially a low temperature bake, improve performance, it is important to study Nb surface characteristics and identify elemental contaminants which may affect the performance of the cavity.([1]) Initial studies using SIMS and Focused Ion Beam (FIB) prepared specimens for Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) have helped to characterize the Nb surface and measure the surface oxide layer thickness.([2]) C, N and O are of particular interest as interstitial contaminants and earlier studies suggested very high H concentration. In the present study, ion implants of C, N, O and deuterium (D) in Nb and Si were analyzed using SIMS. D was implanted to characterize H while avoiding interference from the high H background. The D implant was easily detectable in Si, but showed a constant value and no implant shape in Nb. This result implies either that D (and by implication, hydrogen) has a high mobility in Nb, or that there is movement of D due to the primary ion beam. Nevertheless, C, N, and O could be quantified using the ion implants. Depth profiles of polycrystalline and single crystal Nb samples were also obtained. While both types of Nb samples contained low C concentration, the single crystal Nb samples showed higher N and O content. Copyright (C) 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AB RIMS depth profiles have been measured for Cr and Ca in Genesis solar wind collector made from Si and compared to such measurements for ion-implanted Si reference material. The presence of surface contamination has been shown to be a significant factor influencing the total Ca and Cr fluence measured in the Genesis collectors. A procedure to remove the contaminant signal from these depth profiles using the reference material implanted with a minor isotope demonstrated that 36% of the measured Ca fluence in our Genesis sample comes from terrestrial contamination.

AB Long-term field experiments (LTE) are ideal for predicting the influence of agricultural management on soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics and examining biofuel crop residue removal policy questions. Our objectives were (i) to simulate SOC dynamics in LTE soils under various climates, crop rotations, fertilizer or organic amendments, and crop residue managements using the CQESTR model and (ii) to predict the potential of no-tillage (NT) management to maintain SOC stocks while removing crop residue. Classical LTEs at Champaign, IL (1876), Columbia, MO (1888), Lethbridge, AB (1911), Breton, AB (1930), and Pendleton, OR (1931) were selected for their documented history of management practice and periodic soil organic matter (SOM) measurements. Management practices ranged from monoculture to 2- or 3-yr crop rotations, manure, no fertilizer or fertilizer additions, and crop residue returned, burned, or harvested. Measured and CQESTR predicted SOC stocks under diverse agronomic practices, mean annual temperature (2.1-19 degrees C), precipitation (402-973 mm), and SOC (5.89-33.58 g SOC kg(-1)) at the LTE sites were significantly related (r(2) = 0.94, n = 186, P < 0.0001) with a slope not significantly different than 1. The simulation results indicated that the quantities of crop residue that can be sustainably harvested without jeopardizing SOC stocks were influenced by initial SOC stocks, crop rotation intensity, tillage practices, crop yield, and climate. Manure or a cover crop/intensified crop rotation under NT are options to mitigate loss of crop residue C, as using fertilizer alone is insufficient to overcome residue removal impact on SOC stocks.

AB This Resource Letter provides a guide to the literature on the spherical shell model as applied to nuclei. The nuclear shell model describes the structure of nuclei starting with a nuclear core developed by the classical neutron and proton magic numbers N,Z=2,8,20,28,50,82, 126, where gaps occur in the single-particle energies as a shell is filled, and the interactions of valence nucleons that reside beyond that core. Various modern extensions of this model for spherical nuclei are likewise described. Significant extensions of the nuclear shell model include new magic numbers for spherical nuclei and now for deformed nuclei as well. When both protons and neutrons have shell gaps at the same spherical or deformed shapes, they can reinforce each other to give added stability to that shape and lead to new magic numbers. The vanishings of the classical spherical shell model energy gaps and magic numbers in new neutron-rich nuclei are described. Spherical and deformed shell gaps are seen to be critical for the existence of elements with Z > 100. (c) 2011 American Association of Physics Teachers. [DOI: 10.1119/1.3490013]

AB The U.S. Biomass Roadmap set forth a goal that, by the year 2030, biomass will supply energy approximately equivalent to 30% of current petroleum consumption. Here we report on the amount of nutrient fertilizers required to meet the proposed 1-billion tons of sustainable bioenergy biomass production annually. To meet this goal, U.S. agriculture (assuming a scenario with high yield increase and land use change) will have net removals of 40.3, 12.7, and 36.2 Tg (million tons) of N, P2O5, and K2O, respectively. The 1-billion tons of bioenergy biomass production alone will remove 16.9, 5.2, and 18.2 Tg of N, P2O5, and K2O, respectively, from U.S. agricultural land. Considering the efficiencies of fertilizers in soils and the contribution of biomass residuals in fields, the overall bioenergy-focused agriculture would require 58.2, 27.3, and 31.7 Tg of N, P2O5 and K2O fertilizers, respectively; this corresponds to an overall nutrient fertilizer application increase by a factor of 5.5 over the base line (1997). This study indicates an increased need for domestic and/or international production facilities for fertilizers if the goal of the Biomass Roadmap is to be attained. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

AB We demonstrate that nanoporous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) loaded with silver can serve as templates for ordered nanostructures comprising either silver nanoparticles or nanowires. Exposure to an electron beam breaks down the template, leading to rapid silver coalescence. The geometric and chemical structure of the MOF, as well as the extent of metal loading, determine whether nanoparticles or nanowires are formed and define their size and orientation. Nanowires with diameters as small as 4 nm and aspect ratios >125 can be formed, overcoming the limitations of existing templating methods. This method is relatively simple, compatible with many materials, and proceeds by a distinct template-directed growth mechanism. Since MOFs offer an unprecedented level of synthetic flexibility, combined with highly uniform porosity as a result of their crystalline structure, this approach opens a promising new route for synthesis of self-assembled, ordered nanostructures.

ID SPATIALLY DISJOINT DATA; ENSEMBLES; CLASSIFIERS; SETS
AB We describe an ensemble approach to learning salient regions from arbitrarily partitioned data. The partitioning comes from the distributed processing requirements of large-scale simulations. The volume of the data is such that classifiers can train only on data local to a given partition. Since the data partition reflects the needs of the simulation, the class statistics can vary from partition to partition. Some classes will likely be missing from some or even most partitions. We combine a fast ensemble learning algorithm with scaled probabilistic majority voting in order to learn an accurate classifier from such data. Since some simulations are difficult to model without a considerable number of false positive errors, and since we are essentially building a search engine for simulation data, we order predicted regions to increase the likelihood that most of the top-ranked predictions are correct (salient). Results from simulation runs of a canister being torn and from a casing being dropped show that regions of interest are successfully identified in spite of the class imbalance in the individual training sets. Lift curve analysis shows that the use of data driven ordering methods provides a statistically significant improvement over the use of the default, natural time step ordering. Significant time is saved for the end user by allowing an improved focus on areas of interest without the need to conventionally search all of the data.

AB Extremely high concentrations of uranium (U) were discovered in shallow, groundwater-fed hyperalkaline soda lakes in Eastern Mongolia. A representative ground water sample in this area is dilute and alkaline, pH = 7.9, with 10 mM TIC and 5 mM Cl(-). In contrast, a representative lake water sample is pH similar to 10 with TIC and Cl each more than 1,000 mM. Groundwater concentrations of U range from 0.03 to 0.43 mu M L(-1). Lake water U ranges from 0.24 to >62.5 mu M, possibly the highest naturally occurring U concentrations ever reported in surface water. Strontium isotopes (87)Sr/(86)Sr varied in groundwaters from 0.706192 to 0.709776 and in lakes (87)Sr/(86)Sr varied from 0.708702 to 0.709432. High concentrations of U, Na, Cl(-), and K correlate to radiogenic Sr in lake waters suggesting that U is sourced from local Cretaceous alkaline rhyolites. Uranium-rich groundwaters are concentrated by evaporation and U(VI) is chelated by CO(3)(-2) to form the highly soluble UO(2)(CO(3))(3)(-4). Modeled evaporation of lakes suggests that a U-mineral phase is likely to precipitate during evaporation.

AB Kinetically constrained models (KCMs) have been widely used to study and understand the origin of glassy dynamics. These models show an ergodic-nonergodic first-order phase transition between phases of distinct dynamical "activity". We introduce driven variants of two popular KCMs, the FA model and the (2)-TLG, as models for driven supercooled liquids. By classifying trajectories through their entropy production we prove that driven KCMs display an analogous first-order space-time transition between dynamical phases of finite and vanishing entropy production. We discuss how trajectories with rare values of entropy production can be realized as typical trajectories of a mapped system with modified forces.

TI Adiabaticity conditions for volatility smile in Black-Scholes pricing

SO EUROPEAN PHYSICAL JOURNAL B
LA English
DT Article
ID DISTRIBUTIONS; OPTIONS; LAW
AB Our derivation of the distribution function for future returns is based on the risk neutral approach which gives a functional dependence for the European call (put) option price C(K) given the strike price K and the distribution function of the returns. We derive this distribution function using for C(K) a Black-Scholes expression with volatility sigma in the form of a volatility smile. We show that this approach based on a volatility smile leads to relative minima for the distribution function ("bad" probabilities) never observed in real data and, in the worst cases, negative probabilities. We show that these undesirable effects can be eliminated by requiring "adiabatic" conditions on the volatility smile.

AB Single-mode TE10 rectangular waveguides operating near 3 THz have been demonstrated. The waveguides have internal dimensions of 75 mu m x 37 mu m (WR-0.3) and are fabricated using an additive gold electroplating process on a silicon substrate. The impact of photoresist removal holes was minimized by full-wave design of the hole and matching structures. Waveguides were measured at three frequencies from 2.56 to 3.11 THz and demonstrated loss as low as 1.3 dB/mm at 3.11 THz, corresponding to a loss per wavelength of 0.12 dB/lambda. This paper summarizes the design, fabrication, and measurement of these micromachined waveguides operating near 3 THz.

ID SEMICONDUCTOR-LASERS; WAVE-GUIDES
AB Novel transverse-mode behavior and bistability are observed in spectral and far-field measurements of terahertz-distributed feedback quantum cascade lasers. Prior to onset of negative differential resistance (NDR) at the maximum superlattice current, lasing is exclusive to a single (TM00) transverse mode. Precisely at NDR, lasing switches to a distinct (TM01) transverse mode. The spatial redistribution of optical power in the NDR regime is explained in terms of formation of bias domains localized to the lateral edges of the waveguide. As the bias voltage is reduced below NDR, hysteresis is observed as continued lasing on the TM01 mode. Photon-assisted current transport is proposed as the dominant mechanism for the bistability.

DT Article
ID SOFC STACK; DEGRADATION; MODEL
AB Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) operate under harsh environments, which cause the deterioration of anode material properties and service life. In addition to electrochemical performance, the structural integrity of the SOFC anode is essential for successful long-term operation. The SOFC anode is subjected to stresses at high temperature, thermal/redox cycles, and fuel gas contaminant effects during long-term operation. These mechanisms can alter the anode microstructure and affect its electrochemical and structural properties. In this research, anode material degradation mechanisms are briefly reviewed and an anode material durability model is developed and implemented in finite-element analysis. The model takes into account thermomechanical and fuel gas contaminant degradation mechanisms for predicting the long-term structural integrity of the SOFC anode. The proposed model is validated experimentally using a NexTech Probostat (TM) SOFC button cell test apparatus integrated with a Sagnac optical setup for simultaneously measuring electrochemical performance and in situ anode surface deformation.

AB The creep behavior of glass or glass-ceramic sealant materials used in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) becomes relevant under SOFC operating temperatures. In this paper, the creep of glass-ceramic sealants was experimentally examined, and a standard linear solid model was applied to capture the creep behavior of glass-ceramic sealant materials developed for planar SOFCs at high temperatures. The parameters of this model were determined based on the creep test results. Furthermore, the creep model was incorporated into finite-element software programs SOFC-MP and Mentat-FC developed at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory for multiphysics simulation of SOFCs. The effect of creep of glass-ceramic sealant materials on the long-term performance of SOFC stacks was investigated by studying the stability of the flow channels and the stress redistribution in the glass seal and on the various interfaces of the glass seal with other layers. Finite-element analyses were performed to quantify the stresses in various parts. The stresses in glass seals were released because of creep behavior during operations.

AB To understand the corrosion behavior of solid oxide fuel cell interconnect under current effects, two ferritic alloys, Ebrite and SS430, were investigated with a 0.5 A/cm2 loading current. The samples were exposed to coal syngas (29.1CO+28.5H(2)+11.8 CO(2)+27 center dot 6H(2)O+2.1N(2)+0.01CH(4)) at 800 degrees C for 500 h. Surface and cross-section morphologies, chemical compositions, and conductivities of the oxide scales were studied. It was found that the oxide films formed on the different sides of the sample have similar phases. However, oxide films' thicknesses and surface morphologies are significantly different.

AB We present results of a recent study investigating geomechanical and hydrogeological consequences of large-scale deployment of CO2 sequestration within a region spanning tens of kilometres. This initial study considered a faulted aquifer bounded above and below by impermeable rock. We performed a parameter study of fault activation due to elevated pore pressures and addressed several combinations of injection scenarios and in situ stress orientations. The simulations were performed using iteratively coupled flow and geomechanical capabilities. For each scenario, multiple fluid injectors were simulated using a non-steady reservoir flow model while geomechanical analysis predicted the evolving potential for fault reactivation within the reservoir and concomitant permeability evolution. It is observed that the initially considered scenario leads to a loss of containment of fluid from the storage domain. However, alternative scenarios involving either different in situ stress conditions, or modified injection scenarios resulted in successful containment. The results highlight the importance of site selection, site characterization and in situ stress determination when pressure waves from multiple wells and multiple faults interact, and demonstrate the ability of existing tools to help resolve these issues. The results also emphasize that site-specific injection scenarios will be required to manage permitting, deployment, and operations in such a way as to avoid unintended negative consequences, such as large-scale fault activation, related to large-scale deployment.

AB Wellbores represent the weakest link in terms of CO2 storage permanence. As a result, special attention to the numerous existing wells that perforate storage formations is needed. The pre-injection condition of the cement can influence the rate (and type) of alteration by the injected CO2 plume. The condition of the existing well cement depends on a variety of factors including wellbore/formation and wellbore/brine interactions as well as the composition and type of cement placed in the well (i.e. type of admixtures used, water/solids ratio, sulfate resistant mixes, etc.). In this paper, the details of recovering wellbore cement from an older well to determine pre-injection seal integrity are described. Petrographical and chemical analyses are presented for samples of cement that were retrieved from a 19-year-old well at Teapot Dome in Wyoming. Examination revealed that the retrieved cement had altered as a result of original slurry composition and with respect to the local downhole wellbore environment. Although samples were obtained from a single well, significant differences were observed in their alteration and condition. Sulfate attack resulted in abundant ettringite formation in a cement sample taken adjacent to the Wall Creek sandstone (3060 ft), while cement taken adjacent to the Tensleep formation (5478 ft) was decalcified and enriched in magnesium, owing to reaction of calcium hydroxide in the cement with the dolomitic formation.

AB The requirements imposed by the enormous scale and overall complexity of designing new implants or complete organ regeneration are well beyond the reach of present technology in many dimensions, including nanoscale, as researchers do not yet have the basic knowledge required to achieve these goals. The need for a synthetic implant to address multiple physical and biologic factors imposes tremendous constraints on the choice of suitable materials. There is a strong belief that nanoscale materials will produce a new generation of implant materials with high efficiency, low cost, and high volume. The nanoscale in materials processing is truly a new frontier. Metallic dental implants have been used successfully for decades, but they have serious shortcomings related to their osseointegration and the fact that their mechanical properties do not match those of bone. This paper reviews recent advances in the fabrication of novel coatings and nanopatterning of dental implants. It also provides a general summary of the state of the art in dental implant science and describes possible advantages of nanotechnology for future improvements. The ultimate goal is to produce materials and therapies that will bring state-of-the-art technology to the bedside and improve quality of life and current standards of care.

AB In this review, recent progress on studies of the dissociation dynamics of transient neutral species produced by charge exchange (CE) of molecular cations with caesium is reviewed. CE experiments using translational spectroscopy in fast ion beams have made important contributions to understanding the spectroscopy and dynamics of high-lying excited states of transient species for some 50 years. Recent advances in time- and position-sensitive detection techniques coupled to jet-cooled supersonic expansion ion sources have allowed measurements yielding unprecedented detail for dissociation processes occurring from complex molecular species. Applications of this technique to studying the two- and three-body dissociation of H3 and sym-triazine, as well as the two-body dissociation of the HN2 radical to H + N2 are reviewed. These systems illustrate the insights gained into the dynamics of the dissociative states from examination of product kinetic energy release distributions and detailed measurements of momentum partitioning in three-body dissociation processes.

AB We study the electron relaxation processes in nanoporous Au structures using pump-probe thermoreflectance. Using a modified two temperature model, we determine that the electron Fermi relaxation time is unaffected by the ligament size and is an athermal process that is constant with laser pulse excitation, yet the electron-phonon relaxation is affected by boundary scattering and is dependent on electron temperature. The increased, temperature dependent electron-phonon coupling measurements can be explained by electron-boundary scattering and electron-electron scattering that alters the rate of electron equilibration with the surrounding media. These results lend insight into electron relaxation processes in high surface area nanostructures. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3530866]

AB InGaN/GaN nanowire (NW) heterostructures grown by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy were studied in comparison to their GaN and InGaN counterparts. The InGaN/GaN heterostructure NWs are composed of a GaN NW, a thin InGaN shell, and a multifaceted InGaN cap wrapping the top part of the GaN NW. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images taken from different parts of a InGaN/GaN NW show a wurtzite structure of the GaN core and the epitaxial InGaN shell around it, while additional crystallographic domains are observed whithin the InGaN cap region. Large changes in the lattice parameter along the wire, from pure GaN to higher In concentration demonstrate the successful growth of a complex InGaN/GaN NW heterostructure. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of these heterostructure NW ensembles show rather broad and intense emission peak at 2.1 eV. However, mu-PL spectra measured on single NWs reveal a reduced broadening of the visible luminescence. The analysis of the longitudinal optical phonon Raman peak position and its shape reveal a variation in the In content between 20% and 30%, in agreement with the values estimated by PL and HRTEM investigations. The reported studies are important for understanding of the growth and properties of NW heterostructures suitable for applications in optoelectronics and photovoltaics.

The formation of epitaxial CeO2(100) and CeO2(111) thin films occurs at growth rates of 1 angstrom/min and >= 9 angstrom/min, respectively. Glancing-incidence x-ray diffraction measurements have shown that the films grown at intermediate growth rates (2-7 angstrom/min) consist of polycrystalline CeO2 along with CeO2(100). The thin film grown at 1 angstrom/min exhibits six in-plane domains, characteristic of well-aligned CeO2(100) crystallites. The content of the poorly aligned CeO2(100) crystallites increases with increasing growth rate from 2 to 7 angstrom/min, and three out of six in-plane domains gradually decrease and eventually disappear, as confirmed by XRD pole figures. At growth rates >= 9 angstrom/min, CeO2(111) film with single in-plane domain was identified. The formation of CeO2(100) 3D islands at growth rates of 1-7 angstrom/min is a kinetically driven process unlike at growth rates >= 9 angstrom/min which result in an energetically and thermodynamically more stable CeO2(111) surface.

TI Base fluid and temperature effects on the heat transfer characteristics
of SiC in ethylene glycol/H2O and H2O nanofluids
SO JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSICS

DT Article
ID THERMAL-CONDUCTIVITY
AB Experimental data are presented for the thermal conductivity, viscosity, and turbulent flow heat transfer coefficient of nanofluids with SiC particles suspended in ethylene glycol (EG)/water (H2O) mixture with a 50/50 volume ratio. The results are compared to the analogous suspensions in water for four sizes of SiC particles (16-90 nm). It is demonstrated that the heat transfer efficiency is a function of both the average particle size and the system temperature. The results show that adding SiC nanoparticles to an EG/H2O mixture can significantly improve the cooling efficiency while water-based nanofluids are typically less efficient than the base fluids. This is one of the few times that substantial nanofluid heat transfer enhancement has been reported in the literature based on a realistic comparison basis of constant velocity or pumping power. The trends important for engineering efficient heat transfer nanofluids are summarized. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3524274]

AB This article presents a new signal-processing technique, which utilizes ''relative baselines'' instead of ''pre-stored baselines,'' for Lamb wave based SHM. Several successful SHM methods utilizing wave propagations usually involve recording baseline measurements and comparing them to a newly measured response for structural damage identification. However, maintaining an accurate database of baselines remains challenging because of the effects of varying environmental conditions. Therefore, in this study, the relative baseline concept is proposed, in which measured Lamb waves are correlated between different sensor-actuator sets, as opposed to being correlated to pre-stored baseline data. This study focuses on determining the feature best used for this relative baseline concept, and cross-correlation and power spectral density analysis techniques are performed on data sets recorded from composite and aluminum plates. Experiments are performed with these plates under the presence of temperature variations in order to demonstrate the capability of the relative baseline concept. Our experimental results clearly indicate that the proposed technique reduces the complications associated with using pre-stored baselines for SHM under varying environmental conditions, and provides a quantitative means of identifying structural damage.

AB We describe here a one-step synthesis of hybrid metal nanoparticles (MNPs) and polymer composites on glass substrates using poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) as both the reducing agent and polymer matrix. With this method, it takes only one minute to produce a nanocomposite thin film that contains MNPs with controlled size and morphology. The size and morphology of gold nanoparticles can be manipulated by simply modulating the ratio between the PVP and the Au precursor, while the nearly monodispersed spherical silver nanoparticles are insensitive to the reaction conditions, which is believed to result from a better control over the crystal structure of the Ag seeds than that of the Au seeds in the presence of PVP. Moreover, the resulting MNP-polymer composites are high-quality thin films with tunable optical properties-the lambda(max) of absorption spectra changes from 480 nm to greater than 580 nm (from blue to red color). This environmentally friendly synthetic technique may open up a new avenue for facile nanomaterial synthesis that is not accessible by conventional solution chemistry.

AB Jonker plots (Seebeck coefficient versus logarithm of conductivity) have been utilized to obtain the product of the density of states (DOS) and mobility (mu) in oxide semiconductors, from which the maximum electrical conductivity can be estimated for degenerate transparent conducting oxide (TCO) applications. In addition, the DOS-mu product can be utilized to predict the maximum achievable "power factor" (PF, Seebeck coefficient squared times conductivity) for oxide semiconductors. The PF is an important parameter governing the figure of merit for thermoelectric oxide (TEO) applications. The procedure employs an analysis developed by Ioffe, and provides an important screening tool for oxide (and other) thermoelectric materials, based upon data from polycrystalline ceramic specimens. Several oxides, including known transparent conductors, are considered as TCO and TEO case studies in the present work.

AB In situ measurements during the constrained sintering of Gd-doped ceria reveal tensile stresses up to similar to 250 MPa. These large tensile stresses are likely to contribute to the reduced densification (compared with freely sintered material) typically observed during constrained sintering. While existing models postulate that the tensile stress in a densifying constrained film cannot exceed the "sintering stress," Sigma(S), the observed tensile stresses are significantly larger than the estimated Sigma(S) for these materials. To explain this observation, we propose that the formation and extension of interparticle grain boundaries induce substantial tensile stresses in constrained films. A model of this phenomenon shows that converting excess surface energy to elastic strain energy can produce stresses that are comparable to the measured values. Further, if these "cohesive" stresses exceed Sigma(S), grain-boundary diffusion should initially move material from the neck regions into the grain boundaries, not out of the grain boundaries as described by traditional sintering models.

AB The realization of the renewed exploration of the moon presents many technical challenges; among them is the survival of lunar-surface assets during periods of darkness when the lunar environment is very cold. Thermal wadis are engineered sources of stored solar energy using modified lunar regolith as a thermal storage mass that can supply energy to protect lightweight robotic rovers or other assets during the lunar night. This paper describes an analysis of the performance of thermal wadis based on the known solar illumination of the moon and estimates of producible thermal properties of modified lunar regolith. Analysis has been performed for the lunar equatorial region and for a potential outpost location near the lunar south pole. The calculations indicate that thermal wadis can provide the desired thermal energy and temperature control for the survival of rovers or other equipment during periods of darkness.

AB The structure of the turbulent Ekman layer is explored by examining the three-dimensional velocity fields generated by means of direct numerical simulation (DNS). Emphasis is placed on determining the relation between the instantaneous structure of the velocity field and the turbulent dissipation. The results of our simulation show the following: (1) The pseudo-dissipation exhibits lognormal behavior, with a magnitude range spanning many orders of magnitude, (2) in horizontal planes within the Ekman layer, spatially localized regions of high and low pseudo-dissipation are found, with a magnitude ratio of about 104 between low and high regions, (3) the Ekman layer is found to be composed of a series of quasi-periodic plume-like structures, and (4) the pseudo-dissipation is found to be large at the outer edge of a typical plume, with much lower levels in the plume interior. Conjectures are put forth regarding the relevance of this work to known observations of clear air radar scattering, and suggestions are made for possible future efforts.

ID X-RAY-DIFFRACTION
AB The effects of quantum confinement have been observed pronouncedly in the island morphology of Pb thin films. The evolution of these nano-islands on Si (111)-(7 x 7) and sapphire (001) surfaces has been studied with a new X-ray diffraction method. A charge-coupled device (CCD) camera was used to collect two-and three-dimensional (2-D and 3-D, respectively) maps of the surface X-ray diffraction in real time. Large ranges of the reflectivity curves, with rocking curves at every point on the reflectivity curves, could be measured continuously in a relatively short amount of time. The abundance of information from 2-D k-space maps reveals clear changes in the growth modes of these thin Pb films. With the 3-D extension of this method, it was possible to observe the ordering of the islands. The islands maintain a nearly uniform interisland distance but lack any angular correlation. The interisland ordering is correlated well with the development of "magic'' island heights caused by quantum confinement.

AB A combination of in-situ neutron diffraction and elastoplastic self-consistent (EPSC) modeling have been used to elucidate the role played by intergranular stresses in the Bauschinger effect in B2 structured CoZr at room temperature and 423 K (150 degrees C). It is shown that, when insufficient slip modes are present to accommodate arbitrary strains, the large intergranular stresses built up due to inhomogeneous plastic deformation are responsible for the observed Bauschinger effect. Upon the onset of secondary deformation mechanism(s), the stresses are more uniformly distributed among the grains and the influence of intergranular stresses on the Bauschinger effect diminishes. On the other hand, it is speculated that the contribution of intragranular (dislocation- based) stresses is responsible for the persistent Bauschinger effect past the transition point. Similar results are obtained at both room temperature and 423 K (150 degrees C), and while the yield strength decreases with temperature, the high-temperature stress-strain curve progressively becomes harder than the room temperature one. In light of this, the previously characterized yield strength anomaly in CoZr has been re-examined.

AB The influence of strain rate on development of deformation texture under a dynamic shock compression of a 904L stainless steel was quantitatively investigated using synchrotron X-ray diffraction and crystallographic orientation distribution function (ODF) analysis. The Split-Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) technique was used to generate a high strain rate of > 10(3) s(-1) for preparing the deformed samples. Starting with an almost random texture in a solution treatment condition, the deformed material developed several typical texture components, such as Goss texture and Brass texture. Compared to the texture components displayed in the state of quasi-static compression deformation, it was found that the high-speed deformation generated much weaker texture components. In combination with the change in microstructures observed by electron backscattering diffraction (EBSD) and the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) technique, the high-energy X-ray diffraction provides a powerful tool for characterizing the strain-rate dependence of grain rotation at each stage of deformation. The deformation heterogeneity evident in our experiment can be explained by a transition of deformation mechanism from the dislocation/twin-dominated mode to a shear-band-dominated one with increasing strain rate.

AB In this study, the effects of Ce (270 ppm) and La (120 ppm) mischmetal additions on the transient oxidation of an Fe-22Cr alloy were investigated. The oxidation process was imaged in situ using a confocal scanning laser microscope. The oxidation microstructures were studied by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, and transmission electron microscopy with the help of focused ion beam in situ lift-out specimen preparation. The Ce and La, referred to as reactive elements, were found in nonmetallic inclusion particles in the forms of oxides, sulfides, and phosphates. An affected zone formed around rare earth (RE)-containing inclusion particles at the alloy free surface during the transient oxidation. This zone consisted of an internal Cr-oxide formed beneath the particle as well as a thinner external oxide scale on the surface compared with the surroundings. The relation of this microstructure to oxidation kinetics is discussed. With time, the RE elements diffused into the scale from the RE particles on the alloy surface during the high-temperature exposure. A diffusion mechanism is presented to describe these observations.

TI Air-ingress analysis: Part 2-Computational fluid dynamic models
SO NUCLEAR ENGINEERING AND DESIGN
LA English
DT Article
AB Idaho National Laboratory (INL), under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is performing research and development that focuses on key phenomena important during potential scenarios that may occur in very high-temperature reactors (VHTRs). Phenomena identification and ranking studies to date have ranked an air-ingress event, following on the heels of a VHTR depressurization, as important with regard to core safety. Consequently, the development of advanced air-ingress-related models and verification and validation data are a very high priority.
Following a loss of coolant and system depressurization incident, air will enter the core of the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor through the break, possibly causing oxidation of the core and reflector graphite structure. Simple core and plant models indicate that, under certain circumstances, the oxidation may proceed at an elevated rate with additional heat generated from the oxidation reaction itself. Under postulated conditions of fluid flow and temperature, excessive degradation of lower plenum graphite because of oxidation might lead to a reactor safety issue. Computational fluid dynamics models developed in this study will improve our understanding of this phenomenon and is used to mitigate air ingress.
This paper presents three-dimensional (3D) computational fluid dynamic (CFD) results for the quantitative assessment of the air-ingress phenomena. The 3D CFD simulation results show that the air-ingress accident is not controlled by molecular diffusion but density gradient driven stratified flow when the double-ended-guillotine break is assumed in a horizontal pipe configuration. It concludes that the previous air-ingress scenarios based on the molecular diffusion might not be correct and should be extensively modified to include real phenomena. This paper also presents a preliminary two-dimensional (2D) CFD simulation for validating an air-ingress mitigation concept using helium injection at the lower plenum. This simulation shows that the helium replaces air by buoyancy force and effectively mitigates air-ingress into the core. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB In this paper, we prove that the piecewise bilinear Petrov-Galerkin discretization for the mono-directional neutron transport equation described in (J. Comput. Phys. 1986; 64:96-111) is convergent and second-order accurate, provided that the true solution to the problem has continuous partial derivatives of all orders up through three. We do this by giving a bound on the 2-norm of the inverse of the system matrix that is independent of the mesh size. This shows that the global error is of the same order as the local truncation error. Copyright (C) 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AB The proton is a composite object made of fundamental, strongly interacting quarks. Many of the features of the proton can be described by a simple picture based on three "valence" quarks bound by the exchange of gluons. However, protons are much more complex objects with the vast majority of their mass dynamically generated by quantum chromodynamics (QCD). This mass manifests itself through a "sea" of gluons and quark-antiquark pairs. By measuring Drell-Yan scattering, the Fermilab E-906/Drell-Yan experiment will study the sea quark distribution in the proton and, in particular, the unusually large asymmetry between anti-up and anti-down quarks measured by earlier Drell-Yan experiments. This asymmetry cannot simply be generated through pair creation, but rather indicates an underlying, fundamental antiquark component in the proton. Using the same technique, the E-906/SeaQuest experiment will also investigate the differences between the antiquark distributions of the free proton and a proton bound in a nucleus. Nuclear binding is expected to modify the quark distributions and it has long been known that the overall quark distributions are different (the EMC effect). Surprisingly, present data suggest, however, that the antiquark distributions are not modified. To accomplish these goals, the experiment will use a 120 GeV proton beam extracted from the Fermilab Main Injector. While the experiment will be taking advantage of equipment from earlier Drell-Yan experiments, the changes in kinematics of the experiment require several, significant upgrades to the spectrometer. Japanese institutions, including Tokyo Institute of Technology, KEK, RIKEN, Kyoto University and Yamagata University, are making substantial contributions to this upgrade. The collaboration expects to begin data collection in Summer, 2010. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The use of a noble gas as an inert tracer for mixing studies in combustion systems is investigated. Simultaneous two-photon laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) of krypton and Rayleigh scattering are used for imaging measurements of mixture fraction and temperature in turbulent non-premixed jet flames. The turbulent flames investigated in this study include a piloted CH4/air flame (Sandia flame D) and a CH4/H-2/N-2 flame (DLR-B flame). These flames are well-documented in the literature and enable an evaluation of krypton as a tracer in different fuel mixtures with varying degrees of differential diffusion. Krypton is excited from the ground state to the 5p[3/2](2) state using 215 nm laser radiation, and the fluorescence decay to the metastable state, 5s[3/2](2), is detected at 760 nm. Single-shot krypton LIF and Rayleigh scattering images are analyzed in an iterative routine to determine mixture fraction and temperature. Measurements of the temperature- and species-dependent quenching rates for Kr-LIF are incorporated into this routine. The resulting average radial profiles of mixture fraction and temperature for both flames agree well with previously published measurements. The use of a noble gas as a chemically inert tracer has potential applications for mixing studies in a broad range of combustion environments. (C) 2010 The Combustion Institute.

AB In turbulent combustion research, 1-D Raman/Rayleigh spectroscopy is applied to understand turbulence-chemistry interaction by simultaneously measuring the major species concentrations and temperature. Two different methods have been used in the past to evaluate the data: spectral fitting, based on libraries of theoretical spectra; or matrix inversion of signals that are not spectrally resolved, based on extensive calibration of temperature-dependent system response. A hybrid method for Raman/Rayleigh data analysis is presented that combines the strengths of both previous methods. This hybrid approach is demonstrated using measurements in methane/air flat flames and a laminar hydrogen jet diffusion flame. Precision and accuracy of results from the various methods are compared, and benefits of the hybrid method are discussed. The hybrid approach described here may be adapted to any Raman/Rayleigh detection setup that is optically well characterized. (C) 2010 The Combustion Institute. Published by Elsevier Inc.

AB Imaging of turbulent jet flames has provided insights into the dynamic structure of the thermal dissipation field. These insights motivated studies of scalar mixing in non-reacting jets, with emphasis on comparing measurements to large eddy simulations (LES). We use a progressively refined set of calculations to investigate how filter size affects the LES representations of scalar mixing. Results are analyzed using three grids that are successively refined by a factor of two in space and time. The coarsest grid contains 1.3-million cells and provides resolution similar to that used in current LES. The refined grids contain 10- and 82-million cells. Imaging measurements of the instantaneous mixture fraction and dissipation fields provide insights into scalar mixing dynamics and key length scales. They show that dissipation structures reside on the resolved-and subgrid-scales of the LES, and they provide order of magnitude estimates of the relationship between the dissipation layer thickness (the smallest relevant mixing scale), the integral scale (the largest relevant mixing scale), and the filter width. For all grid distributions, the longitudinal dimension of the dissipation layers spans multiple cells, but the ratio of the layer thickness to filter width is of order 1, which is not consistent with typical modeling assumptions. Measurements of mixture fraction were filtered to isolate the effects of spatial averaging on the dissipation field from the combined effects of spatial and temporal averaging. Statistical analysis reveals that the average mixture fraction and dissipation fields for the coarsest grid deviate significantly from the measured profiles as the flow evolves. On the finest grid, however, good agreement is obtained. Trends suggest that temporal damping and dispersion errors compound as the flow evolves downstream, which is directly related to the relationship between the dissipation layer thickness, filter width, and integral scale of the local mixing field.

ID TURBULENT; COMBUSTION
AB Flame surface density (FSD) is an important quantity in premixed turbulent combustion models, many of which use it in order to predict flame behaviour and characteristics. This quantity may be determined using a statistical method based on measurements of temperature and its gradient, or a geometric method based on 2D temperature or LIF imaging. Measurements of FSD obtained using both methods have been reported in the literature, but no direct comparisons have been made between these methods in premixed or stratified flames. This paper compares these methods in both premixed and stratified datasets (up to a stratification ratio of 3) from a slot burner and a swirl burner. Temperature, local equivalence ratio and three dimensional flame normal orientations were obtained from simultaneous cross plane OH-LIF and Rayleigh-Raman line measurements. Three dimensional progress variable gradients, which are used in the statistical FSD calculations, are derived by angle-correcting gradients along the measurement line. Differences between the statistical and geometrical methods of evaluating FSD are shown to be negligible for values of progress variable between 0.2 and 0.9, and differences at extreme values are detailed and explained. This good agreement between methods is demonstrated to hold over a broad range of flame operating condition. (C) 2010 The Combustion Institute. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB The flame surface density approach is one of the most established techniques for the modelling of turbulent premixed combustion. There has been considerable interest in the experimental measurement of the flame surface density and quantities involved in its transport equation, namely: strain, curvature, and displacement speed. Because of the difficulty involved in performing three-dimensional measurements, the vast majority of this work has been performed in two spatial dimensions. Therefore an assumption is required to relate the two-dimensional measurement to the three-dimensional reality. In the present article, new relationships are derived to relate the statistical mean values of measured two-dimensional quantities to those of the true three-dimensional quantity in the case of isotropic scalar fields and turbulence. The relationships are derived for the flame surface density as well as for every term in its transport equation. To assess the performance of the relationships, direct numerical simulations of turbulent, premixed, methane-air slot-jet flames are employed. In all cases considered, the agreement is very good away from a small region near the simulated burner exit. The agreement improves with downstream distance and with Reynolds number.

AB Recent studies have shown that the subgrid-scale (SGS) mixture fraction has different structures and probability distributions for different SGS scalar variances. We study the effects of these structures on the scalar diffusion and temperature diffusion in the context of large-eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent combustion. Line images obtained in turbulent partially premixed (Sandia) flames are used to analyze the scalar and temperature diffusion filtered conditionally on the scalar and temperature, which must be correctly modeled in LES. The results show that for small SGS variance the scalar and temperature diffusion have a relatively simple structure. For large SGS variance the diffusion is much more complex, with the flamelet structure and local extinction playing important roles. The results show that it is important that mixing models for filtered density function methods be able to account for the different SGS mixture fraction and temperature structures for small and large SGS variance.

AB Turbulent combustion under lean stratified conditions appears in many practical applications. However, relatively few experimental or theoretical studies have investigated stratified flames in detail. We present qualitative mixing and quantitative temperature field measurements of jet-like flames in a canonical burner geometry with the focus on comparisons of stratified and premixed flames. Planar laser-induced fluorescence of OH and acetone are used to mark the flame front and the mixing field, respectively. Laser Rayleigh scattering is used to probe the detailed structure of the temperature field. The burner consists of three staged concentric tubes, and flame stabilization is facilitated by a pilot flame burning inside the central tube. This arrangement minimizes the effects of the pilot flame on the shear and stratification layer in-between the two annular slots. Operating conditions are selected in accordance with previous flow field studies in this burner. Shear and stratification between the annular slots are varied independently from each other. Comparisons between stratified and premixed flames show that differences emerge primarily at large scales and are dominated by shear layers. The effect of stratification appears in instantaneous temperature profiles but is washed out in radial profiles of mean and rms temperatures. In combination with earlier flow field measurements, these data serve as well for validation of numerical simulations. (C) 2010 The Combustion Institute. Published by Elsevier Inc.

AB Lean premixed hydrogen flames are thermodiffusively unstable and burn in cellular structures. Within these cellular structures the flame is locally enriched by preferential diffusion of hydrogen, leading to local hotspots that burn more intensely than an idealized flat steady flame at comparable inlet conditions. We investigate the impact of this local enrichment on the formation of nitrogen oxides. We consider a two dimensional configuration in which lean premixed hydrogen-air flames interact with a weakly turbulent velocity field for a range of equivalence ratios. The simulations show that although peak temperatures remain well below 1800 K (where thermal NOx traditionally is thought to become significant), these localized hot spots lead to significant production of nitric oxides, and the relative enhancement becomes increasingly significant with lower fuel equivalence ratios. A detailed examination of the reaction chemistry in these unsteady flames shows that at richer conditions the predominant path taken to convert nitrogen gas to nitric oxide is via NNH. For leaner flames a path through nitrous oxide becomes increasingly important. (C) 2010 The Combustion Institute. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB We examine the combustion of mixed H-2-CH4-air fuels using two-dimensional simulations that incorporate detailed kinetics and a mixture-averaged model for differential species transport. The mixtures range from lean H-2-air at phi = 0.37 to lean CH4-air at phi = 0.7. For each mixture, we compute the quasi-steady propagation of a flame into flow with superimposed low-level turbulent fluctuations, so that the resulting flames are in the laminar flamelet regime. We examine the resulting global flame characteristics, and quantify how the chemistry depends on local flame curvature. We then examine in more detail how the methane chemistry is modulated by the presence of hydrogen. In particular, we find that the local methane burning speed shows a strong positive correlation with local flame curvature when sufficient hydrogen is added to the mixture. Moreover, for higher hydrogen concentrations, the mixtures exhibit cellular burning patterns that are traditionally associated with thermodiffusively unstable fuel mixtures. Various pathways for the oxidation of methane are identified and are shown to be amplified considerably in the presence of H-2 combustion, which varies considerably along the flame surface.

AB Three lean-to-stoichiometric premixed flames were studied in the opposed-jet configuration by counter-flowing fresh reactants and fully burnt products of combustion at 1850 K. The study was performed experimentally under turbulent conditions and computationally under laminar ones. The flame mixtures were selected to have the same unstrained laminar flame speed. The turbulent flames were studied experimentally using simultaneous planar imaging of CO and OH laser-induced fluorescence, which, in combination, yielded a quantity proportional to the forward reaction rate for CO + OH -> CO2 + H. Since the turbulence characteristics of the feed streams were identical for all flames, the turbulent burning regime was also the same, with a turbulent Reynolds number of 1050 and a Karlovitz number of approximately 5. The oxidation layer of the stoichiometric flame was extinguished, whereas the lean flames exhibited substantial evidence of CO conversion as indicated by the CO + OH reaction rate imaging. To aid the interpretation of the experiments, we numerically investigated the extinction of strained laminar premixed flames with compositions identical to those of the experiments. The calculations corroborated the experimental results, indicating that the stoichiometric flame was the least robust and extinguished at the lowest strain rate. Furthermore, extinction occurred when the flames were very close to the gas stagnation plane and the oxidation layer extended beyond it, towards the burnt product side. The quenching of the oxidation layer is suggested as a possible reason for either local or overall extinction of highly strained premixed flames.

AB Hot engine exhaust represents a resource that is often rejected to the environment without further utilization. This resource is most prevalent in the transportation sector, but stationary engine-generator systems also typically do not utilize this resource. Engine exhaust is considered high-grade heat and can potentially be utilized by various approaches to produce electricity or to drive heating and cooling systems. One idea for this application is to combine an organic Rankine cycle and thermoelectric conversion. This approach is being developed to more fully utilize the thermal energy contained in hot exhaust streams. The model developed here is composed of a high-temperature heat exchanger which extracts thermal energy for driving the thermoelectric conversion elements and a closely integrated bottoming cycle to capture the large amount of remaining thermal energy in the exhaust stream. Many interacting parameters that define combined system operation are employed in the model to determine the overall system performance including output power, efficiency, and total energy utilization factors. In addition, the model identifies a maximum power operating point for the combined system. The model can identify the optimal amount of heat to remove from the exhaust flow to drive the thermoelectric elements for maximizing the combined cycle output. The model has been developed such that heat exchanger UAH (heat transfer coefficient multiplied by heat transfer area) values, thermal resistances, and the thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) can be investigated in the context of system operation. The model also has the ability to simultaneously determine the effect of each cycle design parameter on the performance of the overall system, thus giving the ability to utilize as much waste heat as possible. Results of exercising the model give system performance and inter-relationships between various design parameters as they affect overall performance.

AB We develop and analyze least-squares finite element methods for two complementary div-curl elliptic boundary value problems. The first one prescribes the tangential component of the vector field on the boundary and is solved using curl-conforming elements. The second problem specifies the normal component of the vector field and is handled by div-conforming elements. We prove that both least-squares formulations are norm-equivalent with respect to suitable discrete norms, yield optimal asymptotic error estimates, and give rise to algebraic systems that can be solved by efficient algebraic multigrid methods. Numerical results that illustrate scalability of iterative solvers and optimal rates of convergence are also included.

AB We consider the problem of estimating the uncertainty in large-scale linear statistical inverse problems with high-dimensional parameter spaces within the framework of Bayesian inference. When the noise and prior probability densities are Gaussian, the solution to the inverse problem is also Gaussian and is thus characterized by the mean and covariance matrix of the posterior probability density. Unfortunately, explicitly computing the posterior covariance matrix requires as many forward solutions as there are parameters and is thus prohibitive when the forward problem is expensive and the parameter dimension is large. However, for many ill-posed inverse problems, the Hessian matrix of the data misfit term has a spectrum that collapses rapidly to zero. We present a fast method for computation of an approximation to the posterior covariance that exploits the low-rank structure of the preconditioned (by the prior covariance) Hessian of the data misfit. Analysis of an infinite-dimensional model convection-diffusion problem, and numerical experiments on large-scale three-dimensional convection-diffusion inverse problems with up to 1.5 million parameters, demonstrate that the number of forward PDE solves required for an accurate low-rank approximation is independent of the problem dimension. This permits scalable estimation of the uncertainty in large-scale ill-posed linear inverse problems at a small multiple (independent of the problem dimension) of the cost of solving the forward problem.

AB Motivated by the need to determine the dependencies of two-phase flow in a wide range of applications from carbon dioxide sequestration to enhanced oil recovery, we have developed a standard two-dimensional, pore-level model of immiscible drainage, incorporating viscous and capillary effects. This model has been validated through comparison with several experiments. For a range of stable viscosity ratios (M = mu(injected,nwf)/mu(defending,wf) >= 1), we had increased the capillary number, N(c) and studied the way in which the flows deviate from fractal capillary fingering at a characteristic time and become compact for realistic capillary numbers. This crossover has enabled predictions for the dependence of the flow behavior upon capillary number and viscosity ratio. Our results for the crossover agreed with earlier theoretical predictions, including the universality of the leading power-law indicating its independence of details of the porous medium structure. In this article, we have observed a similar crossover from initial fractal viscous fingering (FVF) to compact flow, for large capillary numbers and unstable viscosity ratios M < 1. In this case, we increased the viscosity ratio from infinitesimal values, and studied the way in which the flows deviate from FVF at a characteristic time and become compact for non-zero viscosity ratios. This crossover has been studied using both our pore-level model and micro-fluidic flow-cell experiments. The same characteristic time, tau = 1/M(0.7), satisfactorily describes both the pore-level results

AB The applications of DMA methods for the investigation of the dynamical mechanical properties of materials are reviewed. Experimental details of this method are described including the combination of DMA with Xray rocking curve measurements to investigate the details of the domain patterns. Emphasis is given to the effect of phase transitions, in particular in ferroelastic and co-elastic systems where the 'easy' movement of domain boundaries, twin walls and other interfaces lead to super-elastic softening of the material. Thermodynamic constraints, such as in the adiabatic-isothermal crossover are discussed.
Smooth, ballistic propagation of domain walls are contrasted with the jerky behaviour of interfaces when phase transitions of first order are investigated. It is shown that for the ballistic behaviour, momentum driven wall movements are common and that their representation in Cole-Cole plots leads to depressed semi-circles, similar to methods used in dielectric spectroscopy. In jerky elastic responses the energy dissipation follows power law dependences. Domain wall pinning and domain wall freezing is discussed in some detail.

AB Although recent measurements of the shower profiles of ultra-high energy cosmic rays suggest that they are largely initiated by heavy nuclei, such conclusions rely on hadronic interaction models which have large uncertainties. We investigate an alternative test of cosmic ray composition which is based on the observation of ultra-high energy photons produced through cosmic ray interactions with diffuse low energy photon backgrounds during intergalactic propagation. We show that if the ultra-high energy cosmic rays are dominated by heavy nuclei, the flux of these photons is suppressed by approximately an order of magnitude relative to the proton-dominated case. Future observations by the Pierre Auger Observatory may be able to use this observable to constrain the composition of the primaries, thus providing an important cross-check of hadronic interaction models.

AB The shadowing of cosmic ray primaries by the moon and sun was observed by the MINOS far detector at a depth of 2070 mwe using 83.54 million cosmic ray muons accumulated over 1857.91 live-days. The shadow of the moon was detected at the 5.6 sigma level and the shadow of the sun at the 3.8 sigma level using a log-likelihood search in celestial coordinates. The moon shadow was used to quantify the absolute astrophysical pointing of the detector to be 0.17 +/- 0.12 degrees. Hints of interplanetary magnetic field effects were observed in both the sun and moon shadow. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Improving biofuel yield and water reuse are two important issues in the further development of biorefineries. An alternative to the typical combustion-based approach to handle residual organics stream by implementation of bioelectrochemical systems such as microbial fuel cells (MFCs) and/or microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) to improve energy recovery from biomass is presented. The potential advantages of this alternative scheme in a biorefinery include minimization of heat loss and generation of a higher-value product: electricity (in MFC) or hydrogen (MEC). The need for 5-15 gallons of water per gallon of ethanol can be reduced significantly via recycling of water after MEC treatment. Removal of inhibitory byproducts such as furans, phenolics, and acetate in MFC/MECs to generate energy, thus, has dual advantages: improvements in energy efficiency and ability to recycle water. Conversion of the sugar- and lignin-degradation products to hydrogen is synergistic with biorefinery hydrogen requirements for upgrading Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) liquids and other byproducts to high-octane fuels and/or high-value products. Some of these products include sorbitol, succinic acid, furan and levulinate derivatives, glycols, polyols, 1,4-butenadiol, phenolics polymers, etc. Potential process alternatives utilizing MECs in biorefineries capable of improving energy efficiency by up to 30% are discussed.

AB Population manipulations such as translocation are becoming increasingly important tools in the management of rare and declining species. Evaluating the effectiveness of such manipulations requires comprehensive monitoring of population processes, including dispersal, survivorship, and reproduction. We investigated the mating system of a translocated population of gopher tortoises (Gopherus polyphemus) established through multiple releases, which occurred primarily during 1987-1994. During 2006-2007, we sampled and genotyped 27 candidate males (candidate sires), 34 candidate females (candidate dams), and 121 offspring from 19 clutches at five polymorphic microsatellite loci to determine the relative frequency of multiple paternity and to estimate individual reproductive success. Multiple paternity was detected in 57% of clutches genotyped, and females of single-sire clutches and females of multiple-sire clutches were of similar size. Reproductive success varied among male tortoises, and successful sires were significantly larger than males to which no offspring were attributed. Among successful sires, previously established males sired a disproportionate number of the offspring sampled, despite being significantly smaller than subsequently released males. The high variance in individual reproductive success and the apparent reproductive advantage associated with prior residence observed in this gopher tortoise population has important implications for the design of future translocation projects.

AB This article examines the localization of time harmonic high-frequency modal fields in two-dimensional cavities along periodic paths between opposing sides of the cavity. The cases where these orbits lead to unstable localized modes are known as scars. This article examines the enhancements for these unstable orbits when the opposing mirrors are convex, constructing the high-frequency field in the scar region using elliptic cylinder coordinates in combination with a random reflection phase from the outer chaotic region. The enhancements when the cavity is symmetric as well as asymmetric about the orbit are examined.

AB We have mapped the formation of tars during white oak thermochemical conversion using a bench scale laminar entrained flow reactor (LEFR). White oak particles (80 mesh, < 180 mu m) were pyrolyzed under conditions not limited by heat transfer. Measurements were made with residence times of 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8 s, between 500 and 900 at 100 degrees C increments, and with residence times of 1 s at temperature from 450 to 950 degrees C at 25 degrees C increments. Products were monitored with a molecular beam mass spectrometer (MBMS), and the mass spectra were analyzed using model-free multivariate analysis (multivariate curve resolution). Six groups of correlated masses were identified that suggest the mechanisms of pyrolysis and gasification. The first group of masses (lowest temperature) is associated with primary species from lignin and hemicellulose, followed by cellulose products. The next two groups (increasing temperature) are composed of secondary products resulting from the cracking of carbohydrate vapors and the cracking of lignin in the gas or solid phase. Molecular weight growth products are seen in the next two groups including substituted aromatic compounds in the fifth group and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the sixth group. The results of this study show that as the temperature of pyrolysis is increased, the molecular weight of the tars decreases up to 750 degrees C, because the pyrolysis vapors are cracked. As the temperature increases beyond 750 degrees C, molecular weight growth is seen with increasing temperature. The analysis also shows that as the temperature increases from 450 to 950 degrees C, oxygen is lost from the tars and converted into CO and CO(2). The char samples were collected and analyzed with light and electron microscopy. This analysis revealed that micropores develop in the cell wall around 550 degrees C and increase in size and coalesce into a cenosphere morphology with increasing temperature. Above 850 degrees C, these cenospheres appear to rupture, releasing their contents into the gas phase. This rupture event correlates with increased MBMS signals from PAH-associated masses.

AB FT-IR imaging was used to monitor the structural and chemical changes of wood particles under various pyrolysis conditions. The temperature or reaction profile inside pyrolyzed wood was obtained from a novel approach using chemical images coupled with multivariate analysis. Poplar sections 100 mu m thick were pyrolyzed at 250-500 degrees C and the resulting FT-IR images were used as standards to determine the temperature in a poplar wood block (5 mm x 5 mm x 20 mm). Principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least-squares (PLS) regression were used to develop predictive models to map the temperature profile in the pyrolyzed wood. The results indicate that FT-IR imaging coupled with multivariate analysis is a powerful tool to study the heat transfer effects in the pyrolysis of thick wood particles. We believe that this is a unique and novel approach to visualize the chemical changes in heated biomass and thermal effects in other materials.

AB During biomass gasification, sulfur contained in the feedstock is converted primarily to hydrogen sulfide. Conventional technologies for sulfur removal such as amine scrubbing and ZnO sorption operate at much lower temperatures than those of gasification and tar reforming and are thus thermally inefficient for cleanup of biomass-derived syngas. This work aims to develop options for high-temperature sulfur removal. In this research, we focus our investigation on the regeneration chemistry of a manganese-based sorbent for sulfur removal at the high temperature, high steam conditions (700 degrees C and up to 68% steam) used for biomass gasification and subsequent syngas conditioning. We found that regeneration conditions that have a small amount of air or steam in combination with air would allow for equal sulfidation and regeneration time. We also demonstrated the effectiveness of both fresh and regenerated sorbents in protecting downstream tar and methane reforming catalysts.

AB Detailed X-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements as a function of temperature are reported in ErCo2 at the Co L-2,L-3 edges. The application of magneto-optical sum rules allows for the determination of the Co orbital and spin magnetic moments both in the ferrimagnetic and paramagnetic phases. In agreement with the predictions of Hund's third rule, Co orbital and spin moments are parallel throughout the overall temperature range, except in a narrow temperature window within the paramagnetic phase in which, contrary to what is expected, they are overall coupled antiparallel. This is the first time that such behavior is observed in an intrinsic magnetic moment. A qualitative consideration of the balance between the interatomic and intra-atomic interactions acting on the cobalt atoms explains the phenomenon. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2011

AB The presence of energy shells in metallic clusters and atomic nuclei leads to a peculiar relation between the number of particles N and the structure, and this leads to a strong correlation between the energy spectrum and N. An analysis of experimental data leads to the conclusion that, in addition to the static Jahn-Teller effect, the dynamic effect leading to the quantum coexistence of different configurations (quantum oscillations) plays an important role. Such suggested coexistence is an essential feature of clusters as well as nuclei, both finite Fermi systems. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2011

DE ITER; Tokamak cooling water system; Design modifications
AB ITER (Latin for "the way"), the largest fusion experimental reactor in the world, is designed to demonstrate the technological feasibility of nuclear fusion energy conversion, at plant scale, from high temperature deuterium-tritium plasma using the Tokamak magnetic confinement arrangement.
ITER will have a large vacuum vessel that hosts the plasma facing components. These components include the blanket and the divertor that will operate at temperatures, heat loads, and neutron flux higher than those reached in a nuclear fission power plant reactor.
One of the main critical issues of the ITER reactor is the design of the cooling water system to transfer the heat generated in the plasma to the in-vessel components and the heat loads from the auxiliary systems to the environment.
This paper describes the current ITER cooling water system and recent design modifications and optimizations. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier B.V.

ID START
AB A novel concept for incorporating an iron core transformer within a axisymmetric toroidal plasma containment device with a high neutron flux is described. This design enables conceptual design of low aspect ratio devices which employ standard transformer-driven plasma startup by using all-metal high resistance inserts between the toroidal field windings. This design avoids the inherent problems of a multi-turn air core transformer which will inevitably suffer from strong neutron bombardment and hence lose the integrity of its insulation, both through long term material degradation and short term neutron induced conductivity. A full 3-dimensional model of the concept has been developed within the MAXWELL program and the resultant loop voltage calculated. The utility of the result is found to be dependent on the resistivity of the high resistance inserts. Useful loop voltage time histories have been obtained using expected resistivities.

AB Supervised learning methods such as Maximum Likelihood (ML) are often used in land cover (thematic) classification of remote sensing imagery. ML classifier relies exclusively on spectral characteristics of thematic classes whose statistical distributions (class conditional probability densities) are often overlapping. The spectral response distributions of thematic classes are dependent on many factors including elevation, soil types, and ecological zones. A second problem with statistical classifiers is the requirement of the large number of accurate training samples (10 to 30 x |dimensions|), which are often costly and time consuming to acquire over large geographic regions. With the increasing availability of geospatial databases, it is possible to exploit the knowledge derived from these ancillary datasets to improve classification accuracies even when the class distributions are highly overlapping. Likewise newer semi-supervised techniques can be adopted to improve the parameter estimates of the statistical model by utilizing a large number of easily available unlabeled training samples. Unfortunately, there is no convenient multivariate statistical model that can be employed for multisource geospatial databases. In this paper we present a hybrid semi-supervised learning algorithm that effectively exploits freely available unlabeled training samples from multispectral remote sensing images and also incorporates ancillary geospatial databases. We have conducted several experiments on Landsat satellite image datasets, and our new hybrid approach shows over 24% to 36% improvement in overall classification accuracy over conventional classification schemes.

AB In the event of a chemical terrorist attack on a transportation hub, post-event remediation and restoration activities necessary to attain unrestricted facility re-use and re-entry could require hours to multiple days. While restoration timeframes are dependent on numerous variables, a primary controlling factor is the level of pre-planning and decision-making completed prior to chemical terrorist release. What follows is the first of a two-part analysis identifying key considerations, critical information, and decision criteria to facilitate post-attack and post-decontamination consequence management activities. A conceptual site model and human health-based exposure guidelines are developed and reported as an aid to site-specific pre-planning in the current absence of U.S. state or Federal values designated as compound-specific remediation or re-entry concentrations, and to safely expedite facility recovery to full operational status. Chemicals of concern include chemical warfare nerve and vesicant agents and the toxic industrial compounds phosgene, hydrogen cyanide, and cyanogen chloride. This work has been performed as a national case study conducted in partnership with the Los Angeles International Airport and The Bradley International Terminal. All recommended guidelines have been selected for consistency with airport scenario release parameters of a one-time, short-duration, finite airborne release from a single source followed by compound-specific decontamination.

ID MIXTURE PROPERTIES
AB In the present study, penetration and evaporation of the diesel sprays injected by a group of two closely spaced orifices (a group-hole nozzle) were investigated and compared with those of conventional single-hole nozzle sprays under various engine loads and wall-impinging conditions of direct-injection (DI) diesel engines. Both free and wall-impinging conditions were considered. The experiments were performed inside a constant-volume vessel under simulated ambient conditions for low and high engine loads of DI diesel engines. To investigate the effect of spray targeting, two impinging conditions (impingement angles of 45 degrees and 90 degrees with the same impingement distance) were applied. Geometry and liquid/vapour mass distributions of the evaporating diesel sprays were analysed using a laser absorption scattering (LAS) technique.
Under a free spray condition, fuel evaporation of the group-hole nozzle spray was improved compared with that of the single-hole nozzle spray at low load conditions, while it showed simultaneous deterioration in fuel evaporation and spray tip penetration at high load conditions. Jet axes deflection of the two jets from the group-hole nozzle, which generated a dense liquid region at the central region of the spray, was responsible for this deteriorated evaporation at high load conditions. Under a vertical impingement condition (impingement angle of 90 degrees), the group-hole nozzle spray showed simultaneous improvement in spray tip penetration and fuel evaporation at both low and high load conditions from strong momentum interaction of the two jets on the impingement wall. However, this improvement from the group-hole nozzle did not appear at an inclined wall-impingement condition (impingement angle of 45 degrees) owing to weakened and delayed momentum interaction of the two jets. Both spray tip penetration and fuel evaporation of the group-hole nozzle spray were deteriorated at the inclined wall-impinging condition.

AB We derive new constraints on the coupling of heavy pseudoscalar (axion-like) particles to photons, based on the gamma ray flux expected from the decay of these particles into photons. After being produced in the supernova core, these heavy axion-like particles would escape and a fraction of them would decay into photons before reaching the Earth. We have calculated the expected flux on Earth of these photons from the supernovae SN 1987A and Cassiopeia A and compared our results to data from the Fermi Large Area Telescope. This analysis provides strong constraints on the parameter space for axion-like particles. For a particle mass of 100MeV, we find that the Peccei-Quinn constant, fa, must be greater than about 10(15) GeV. Alternatively, for f(a) = 10(12) GeV, we exclude the mass region between approximately 100 eV and 1GeV.

TI Interface of GaN grown on Ge(111) by plasma assisted molecular beam

AB Early efforts to grow GaN layers on germanium substrates by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy led to GaN domains, rotated by 8 degrees relative to each other. Increased insight in the growth of GaN on germanium resulted in the suppression of these domain and consequently high quality layers. In this study the interface of these improved layers is investigated with transmission electron microscopy. The GaN layers show high crystal quality and an atomically abrupt interface with the Ge substrate. A thin, single crystalline Ge(3)N(4) layer is observed in between the GaN layer and Ge substrate. This Ge(3)N(4) layer remains present even at growth temperatures (850 degrees C) far above the decomposition temperature of Ge(3)N(4) in vacuum (600 degrees C). Triangular voids in the Ge substrate are observed after growth. Reducing the Ga flux at the onset of GaN growth helps to reduce the triangular defect size. This indicates that the formation of voids in the Ge substrate strongly depends on the presence of Ga atoms at the onset of growth. However complete elimination was not achieved. The formation of voids in the germanium substrate leads to diffusion of Ge into the GaN layer. Therefore we examined the diffusion of Ge atoms into the GaN layer and G a atoms into the Ge substrate. It was found that the diffusion of Ge into the GaN layer and Ga into the Ge substrate can be influenced by the growth temperature but cannot be completely suppressed. Our results suggest that Ga atoms diffuse through small imperfections in the Ge(3)N(4) interlayer and locally etch the Ge substrate, leading to the diffusion of Ga and Ge atoms.

AB TiO2 materials have many practical applications due to their intrinsic physico-chemical properties. Research activities on the properties of TiO2 brookite have been restrained by the difficulty of preparing such a phase. Here, we report on the synthesis of TiO2 brookite prepared by thermal decomposition of a titanium oxalate hydrate compound. Since the characteristics of the prepared TiO2 brookite are dictated by those of the precursor, the present work aims to understand the aqueous precipitation process of the oxalate hydrate phase. It was shown that the formation of the phase occurred via different steps that are affected by the synthesis conditions, i.e. the oxalate source and the duration time. At first, in agreement with the Ostwald's rule of stages, the formation of the oxalate phase implied a metastable intermediate that is a poorly crystallized TiO2 phase. The pH of the solution was shown to impact on the kinetic of transformation of this intermediate toward the final compound. In the presence of alkali ions, the oxalate phase was shown to undergo a dissolution/etching phenomenon that is dependent on the nature of the alkali ion used. The apparent difference in adsorption ability of the alkali ions on the different crystal planes of the titanium oxalate hydrate phase accounted for the variety of the obtained morphologies. Finally, it was suggested that the reaction was promoted by a coordination-assisted mechanism involving the complexing properties of the oxalate anions toward Ti4+ ions. The obtained TiO2 brookite materials exhibit unreached high specific surface area lying between 150 and 400 m(2) g(-1) while displaying high packing density around 1-1.2 g cm(-3). The lithium insertion ability of the prepared material depends on the calcination temperature. Increasing the temperature led to a decrease of the lithium uptake properties but was shown to improve the kinetics of lithium insertion. This was due to an increase of the pore radius size that enabled a faster lithium diffusion transport to be achieved under high current density conditions.

AB With the development of high-throughput sequencing techniques, transcriptome sequencing projects which provide valuable resources for designing simple sequence repeat (SSR) primers have been carried out for many plants. However, the utility of SSRs for molecular breeding depends on genome-wide distribution and coverage, as well as moderately high allelic variability, in the available SSR library. In this study, we characterized the exonic SSRs developed from the publicly available Populus genome as a case study to determine their value for molecular breeding. As expected, our results confirmed that microsatellites occurred approximately three times less often in coding regions than in non-coding regions. Mutability test also showed that exonic SSRs contained less allelic variability than intronic SSRs. More importantly, exonic SSRs were unevenly distributed both among and within chromosomes. Large exonic SSRs deserts were observed on several chromosomes. Differential selection between paralogous chromosomes, at the gene level, appears to be responsible for these SSR deserts, though the mechanisms that cause chromosome-specific SSR deserts are not known. This work provides ample evidence that the candidate gene approach based on unigenes identified from transcribed sequences may not be the best strategy to identify highly polymorphic SSRs.

TI Topological origin of subgap conductance in insulating bilayer graphene
SO NATURE PHYSICS
LA English

ID HGTE QUANTUM-WELLS; BERRYS PHASE; STATE
AB The edges of graphene-based systems possess unusual electronic properties, originating from the non-trivial topological structure associated with the pseudospinorial character of the electron wavefunctions. These properties, which have no analogue for electrons described by the Schrodinger equation in conventional systems, have led to the prediction of many striking phenomena, such as gate-tunable ferromagnetism and valley-selective transport(1-3). In most cases, however, the predicted phenomena are not expected to survive the strong structural and chemical disorder that unavoidably affects the edges of real graphene devices. Here, we present a theoretical investigation of the intrinsic low-energy states at the edges of electrostatically gapped bilayer graphene, and find that the contribution of edge modes to the linear conductance of realistic devices remains sizable even for highly imperfect edges. This contribution may dominate over that of the bulk for sufficiently clean devices, such as those based on suspended bilayer graphene samples. Our results illustrate the robustness of those phenomena whose origin is rooted in the topology of the electronic band structure, even in the absence of specific protection mechanisms.

AB The plastic substrates, reflective layers, dyes, and adhesives of four archival-grade, recordable DVDs and one standard-grade recordable DVD were analyzed to determine their chemical compositions and/or physical dimensions. Chemical analyses by attenuated total internal reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, energy-dispersive x-ray/scanning transmission electron microscopy, and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry show that all these DVDs use very similar polycarbonate plastic substrates and acrylate-based adhesives, but different reflective layers and dye write layers. In addition, physical measurements by atomic force microscopy show differences in the DVD groove depth, width, and other dimensions. These chemical and physical analyses may help explain variations in DVD lifetimes and facilitate development of the next-generation archival-grade DVDs.

AB Concentrating photovoltaic (CPV) technology has recently gained interest based on its scalability and expected low levelized cost of electricity. The reliability of encapsulation materials used in CPV systems, however, is not well established. For example, the present qualification test for CPV modules includes only real-time ultraviolet (UV) exposure, i.e., methods for accelerated UV testing have not yet been developed. To better define the stress inherent to CPV systems, the UV and infrared spectra transmitted through representative optical systems were evaluated. Measurements of optical components are used to assess expected optical performance and quantify damaging optical exposure. Optical properties (transmittance, refractive index, reflectance, and absorptance) of candidate materials (including PMMA, soda-lime glass, borosilicate glass, and quartz refractors), components (including Ag- and Al-enabled reflectors), and encapsulants (including EVA, ionomer, PDMS, PPMS, polyolefin, and PVB) were identified. The activation spectrum was calculated for the representative optical systems using an assumed action spectrum to compare the expected damaging dose of UV radiation delivered to the cell encapsulation. The dose and flux analysis identifies the significance of IR relative to UV exposure for CPV systems. Because UV light is typically more highly attenuated, the UV dose within the encapsulation may not greatly exceed the unconcentrated global solar condition, but the thermal load scales nearly directly with the geometric concentration. Relative to a previous analysis for crystalline silicon cell technology, the analysis here is performed for III-V multijunction technology. Novel aspects here also include additional materials (such as TPU encapsulation) and additional components (transmission through silicone on glass lenses, antireflective coatings, and the front glass used with reflective systems, as well as reflection off of the cell).

We describe a time-resolved microscope system that enables the study of the sequence of events and the individual processes involved during the entire timeline from the initial energy deposition to the final state of the material, typically associated with the formation of a crater on the surface. To best capture individual aspects of the damage timeline, this system can be configured to multiple imaging arrangements, such as multiview image acquisition at a single time point, multi-image acquisition at different time points of the same event, and tailored sensitivity to various aspects of the process. As a case example, we present results obtained with this system during laser-induced damage on the exit surface of fused silica. (C) 2011 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).

AB We propose a phase-field model for modeling microstructure evolution during deformation twinning. The order parameters are proportional to the shear strains defined in terms of twin plane orientations and twinning directions. Using a face-centered cubic Al as an example, the deformation energy as a function of shear strain is obtained using first-principle calculations. The gradient energy coefficients are fitted to the twin boundary energies along the twinning planes and to the dislocation core energies along the directions that are perpendicular to the twinning planes. The elastic strain energy of a twinned structure is included using the Khachaturyan's elastic theory. We simulated the twinning process and microstructure evolution under a number of fixed deformations and predicted the twinning plane orientations and microstructures.

AB Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are a powerful tool for modeling dynamic processes with wide applications in a variety of scientific fields. Over the last two decades, ODEs have also emerged as a prevailing tool in various biomedical research fields, especially in infectious disease modeling. In practice, it is important and necessary to determine unknown parameters in ODE models based on experimental data. Identifiability analysis is the first step in determining unknown parameters in ODE models and such analysis techniques for nonlinear ODE models are still under development. In this article, we review identifiability analysis methodologies for nonlinear ODE models developed in the past couple of decades, including structural identifiability analysis, practical identifiability analysis, and sensitivity-based identifiability analysis. Some advanced topics and ongoing research are also briefly reviewed. Finally, some examples from modeling viral dynamics of HIV and influenza viruses are given to illustrate how to apply these identifiability analysis methods in practice.

AB The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is responsible for retrieving, immobilizing, and disposing of radioactive waste generated during the production of nuclear weapons in the United States. The general strategy for treating the radioactive tank waste consists of pretreating the wastes by separating them into high-level and low-activity fractions. The high-level fraction will be immobilized in a glass form suitable for disposal in a geologic repository. The low-activity waste will be immobilized in a waste form suitable for on-site. This paper reviews recent developments in the application of pretreatment technologies to the processing of the DOE radioactive tank wastes.

AB The compound 1-(2,2,3,3,-tetrafluoropropoxy)-3-(4-sec-butylphenoxy)-2-propanol, also called Cs-7SB, is used as a solvent modifier in formulations containing calixarenes and crown ethers for cesium and strontium extraction from nuclear waste solutions. The compound solvates complexes of both metals and decreases in its concentration result in lowered extraction efficiency for both. The use of Cs-7SB in nuclear-solvent extraction ensures that it will be exposed to high-radiation doses, and thus its radiation-chemical robustness is a matter of interest in the design of extraction systems employing it. The behavior of the compound in irradiated solution, both in the presence and absence of a nitric acid aqueous phase was investigated here using steady state- and pulsed-radiolysis techniques. The rate constants for the aqueous reactions of Cs-7SB with center dot H, center dot OH, center dot NO3, and center dot NO2 radicals are reported. UPLC-UV-MS results were used to identify major products of the radiolysis of Cs-7SB in contact with nitric acid, and revealed the production of hydroxylated nitro-derivatives. Reaction mechanisms are proposed and it was concluded that the aryl-ether configuration of this molecule makes it especially susceptible to nitration in the presence of radiolytically-produced nitrous acid. Fluoride yields are also given under various conditions.

AB Hafnium oxide (HfO2) thin films have been made by radio-frequency (rf) magnetron-sputtering onto Si(1 0 0) substrates under varying growth temperature (T-s). HfO2 ceramic target has been employed for sputtering while varying the T-s from room temperature to 500 degrees C during deposition. The effect of T-s on the growth and microstructure of deposited HfO2 films has been studied using grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD), and high-resolution scanning electron microscopy (HR-SEM) coupled with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS). The results indicate that the effect of T-s is significant on the growth, surface and interface structure, morphology and chemical composition of the HfO2 films. Structural characterization indicates that the HfO2 films grown at T-s < 200 degrees C are amorphous while films grown at T-s > 200 degrees C are nanocrystalline. An amorphous-to-crystalline transition occurs at T-s = 200 degrees C. Nanocrystalline HfO2 films crystallized in a monoclinic structure with a (-1 1 1) orientation. An interface layer (IL) formation occurs due to reaction at the HfO2-Si interface for HfO2 films deposited at T-s > 200 degrees C. The thickness of IL increases with increasing T-s. EDS at the HfO2-Si cross-section indicate that the IL is a (Hf, Si)-O compound. The electrical characterization using capacitance-voltage measurements indicate that the dielectric constant decreases from 25 to 16 with increasing T-s. The current-voltage characteristics indicate that the leakage current increases significantly with increasing T-s due to increased ILs. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The detailed balance effect is analyzed by taking into account both gluon emission and absorption in a thermal medium. We also calculate virtual corrections and show that the infrared divergence cancels out in the gluon distribution function at finite temperature.

AB Self-assembled membrane architectures have great potential for the development of materials for the conversion of solar energy into electricity or fuels. Discovering the design principles that promote self-assembly in natural photosynthetic systems may provide inspiration for the development of synthetic solar conversion systems. We report for the first time that naturally occurring light harvesting antennae can alter the phase behavior of a poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly(propylene oxide)-block-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) block copolymer system from micellar to lamellar structures mimicking their role in maintaining the supramolecular architecture of the photosynthetic membrane. Small-angle neutron scattering shows that PEO43-PPO16-PEO43 micelles undergo a phase transition from a micellar state to a lamellar structure with a similar to 60 angstrom spatial repetition in the presence of plant light harvesting complex II (LHCII). In addition, spectrophotometric analysis indicates that the protein self-assembles in the synthetic membrane structure. Photodependent hydrogen production mediated by LHCII embedded in the block copolymer had a maximum rate of 6.4 mmol h(-1) per mg chlorophyll. The production of H-2 was sustained for greater than 100 hours showing the potential of this approach for the development of self-assembled bioinspired photoconversion systems. Although excited energy transfer is the primary function of LHCII, this work provides evidence that the protein complex can also perform electron transfer, a role not known to occur in vivo. The significance of this work is that it provides a novel approach for developing a new class of membrane-based smart material with a well-controlled architecture that is dependent on the assembly of interacting components, and it could also have important implications in self-repair and control of energy transfer in photoconversion devices.

AB BACKGROUND: There remain technological deficiencies in the economical anaerobic digestion of the entire flow of flushed dairy manure on farms within cold climates. In order to develop an anaerobic digester tailored for this purpose, this study investigated the distributions of biomass and biogas generated in three particle-size-characterized zones of flushed dairy manure.
RESULTS: Results demonstrate that comparable biogas generations are equally distributed between the solids and liquid phases of flushed dairy manure, implying that at least 50% of methane generation might be lost when utilizing existing processes that only selectively handle the liquid or solids phases. Microscopic and kinetic studies show that the majority of microorganisms in the manure are attached to the surface of undigested dairy manure fibrous solids. In particular, greater than 70% of acetate-utilizing methanogens were found closely associated with the indigestible solids. This high microbial affinity to the dairy manure solids phase can be traced back to the selection pressure driven bacterial immobilization mechanism in cattle rumen.
CONCLUSION: This study shows that dairy manure fibrous solids have the potential to act as effective natural biomass carriers for high rate and simultaneous methanation of both solids and liquid phases of flushed dairy manure in one digester. (C) 2010 Society of Chemical Industry

AB In the past couple of decades, the massive computational power provided by the most modern supercomputers has resulted in simulation of higher-order computational chemistry methods, previously considered intractable. As the system sizes continue to increase, the computational chemistry domain continues to escalate this trend using parallel computing with programming models such as Message Passing Interface (MPI) and Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) programming models such as Global Arrays. The ever increasing scale of these supercomputers comes at a cost of reduced Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), currently on the order of days and projected to be on the order of hours for upcoming extreme scale systems. While traditional disk-based check pointing methods are ubiquitous for storing intermediate solutions, they suffer from high overhead of writing and recovering from checkpoints. In practice, checkpointing itself often brings the system down. Clearly, methods beyond checkpointing are imperative to handling the aggravating issue of reducing MTBF. In this paper, we address this challenge by designing and implementing an efficient fault tolerant version of the Coupled Cluster (CC) method with NWChem, using in-memory data redundancy. We present the challenges associated with our design, including an efficient data storage model, maintenance of at least one consistent data copy, and the recovery process. Our performance evaluation without faults shows that the current design exhibits a small overhead. In the presence of a simulated fault, the proposed design incurs negligible overhead in comparison to the state of the art implementation without faults.

AB Na27Ru14O48 has been synthesized in air at 700 C. The composition and crystal structure of the phase were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The triclinic crystal structure contains isolated planar Ru7O24 plaquettes made from seven edge-sharing RuO6 octahedra. The complex Na:Ru ratio is a result of tilting of the plaquettes to disrupt the packing of nominally hexagonal close packed planes made of Na ions and RuO6 octrahedra. Resistivity measurements show that the material is semiconducting with an activation energy of 0.53 eV. The observed magnetic moment of 3.11 mu(B) per Ru is lower than the expected spin only value, but is within the range seen in other compounds and is too large to indicate that the fundamental magnetic entities are the isolated Ru7O24 plaquettes. Small, reproducible deviations in the Curie-Weiss behavior occur below 200 K and the onset of a broad magnetic transition is seen between 40 and 32 K. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB The biosphere, our fragile and exquisite home, is changing abruptly and irrevocably, largely from human interference. Most or all of the coming stresses have links to the land, so finding hopeful outcomes depend on wide and deep understanding of soils. In this review, we pose eight urgent issues confronting humanity in coming decades: demands for food, water, nutrients, and energy; and challenges of climate change, biodiversity, "waste" reuse, and global equity. We then suggest some steps soil scientists might take to address these questions: a refocusing of research, a broadening of vision, a renewed enticement of emerging scientists, and more lucid telling of past successes and future prospects. The questions posed and responses posited are incomplete and not yet fully refined. But the conversations they elicit may help direct soil science toward greater relevance in preserving our fragile home on this changing planet.

TI Comparison of Average and Point Capillary Pressure-Saturation Functions
Determined by Steady-State Centrifugation
SO SOIL SCIENCE SOCIETY OF AMERICA JOURNAL
LA English
DT Article
ID WATER-RETENTION CURVE; HYDRAULIC CONDUCTIVITY; SOIL; TRANSPORT
AB The capillary pressure-saturation function can be determined from centrifuge drainage experiments. In soil physics, the data resulting from such experiments are usually analyzed by the "averaging method." In this approach, average relative saturation, < S >, is expressed as a function of average capillary pressure, , i.e., < S >(). In contrast, the capillary pressure-saturation function at a physical point, i.e., S(psi), has been extracted from similar experiments in petrophysics using the "integral method." The purpose of this study was to introduce the integral method applied to centrifuge experiments to a soil physics audience and to compare S(psi) and < S >() functions, as parameterized by the Brooks-Corey and van Genuchten equations, for 18 samples drawn from a range of porous media (i.e., Berea sandstone, glass beads, and Hanford sediments). Steady-state centrifuge experiments were performed on preconsolidated samples with a URC-628 Ultra-Rock Core centrifuge. The angular velocity and outflow data sets were then analyzed using both the averaging and integral methods. The results show that the averaging method smoothes out the drainage process, yielding less steep capillary pressure-saturation functions relative to the corresponding point-based curves. Maximum deviations in saturation between the two methods ranged from 0.08 to 0.28 and generally occurred at low suctions. These discrepancies can lead to inaccurate predictions of other hydraulic properties such as the relative permeability function. Therefore, we strongly recommend use of the integral method instead of the averaging method when determining the capillary pressure-saturation function by steady-state centrifugation. This method can be successfully implemented using either the van Genuchten or Brooks-Corey functions, although the latter provides a more physically precise description of air entry at a physical point.

AB Targets intended to produce ignition on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) are being simulated, and the simulations are used to set specifications for target fabrication. Recent design work has focused on incorporating the implications of NIF experiments that were done in fall 2009 and planning for the campaign in 2010. Near-term experiments will use Ge-doped CH, although Be and diamond are still under active consideration for 2011 and beyond. The emphasis in this paper will be on changes in the requirements over the last year, the characteristics of the 2010 CH-ablator design, and the designs for 2011 and beyond. Capsule defects of particular interest are surface perturbations on the CH ablator and composition variations in the Be shells. Complete tables of specifications are regularly updated for all of the targets. All the specifications are rolled together into an error budget indicating adequate margin for ignition with all of the designs.

AB Delivering targets whose parameters are repeatable within specifications is critical to a successful ignition campaign. Knowing the repeatability of the metrology techniques and determining random error bars is central in achieving this goal. In this paper, we will discuss the relationship of specifications and actual target variability to the processes we have developed to adequately characterize them. The paper covers five broad categories of capsule specifications: dimension, composition, homogeneity, surface finish, and point defects. The instruments include contact radiography, energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray absorption edge spectroscopy, precision radiography system, sphere mapping, and phase-shifting diffraction interferometry.

The techniques are presented from a historical point of view. The techniques reviewed include optical microscopy, electron microscopy, atom probe field ion microscopy, microhardness mapping and nanoindentation. Although these techniques are discussed with examples from fusion welds, they can easily be applied to solid state welding processes. The paper also refers to other advanced characterisation techniques that are discussed in detail in other sections of this special issue.

The two symmetry-independent disulfide molecules are assembled by approximate face-to-face and face-to-edge interactions between their 4-nitrobenzoyloxy groups into an intertwined dimer having a double-helix-type structure.

AB A large percentage of the losses in performance and effectiveness of airborne optical systems are caused by turbulence. In an effort to reduce these adverse effects in airborne optical systems, we are exploring the use of both open- and closed-loop flow control over a cylindrical turret. A series of experiments were performed at a Reynolds number of 2 x 10(6), based on the turret's diameter and freestream velocity, which corresponds to a Mach number of 0.3. The three-dimensional turret contained an actuation system that consists of 17 synthetic jets placed upstream from the leading edge of the aperture. Initially, a large database containing no control and open-loop control was obtained. These data sets provide a rich ensemble for the development and application of a simple proportional closed-loop control with the use of proper orthogonal decomposition. Surface pressure measurements were acquired across the aperture region for all cases studied. Results from the open-loop test demonstrate a reduction of 19.6% in the root-mean-square values when compared to the baseline case. The closed-loop flow control results show that the root-mean-square pressure fluctuations are reduced by 25.7%, the integral scales are significantly reduced, and the flow is driven toward homogeneity.

AB Global butter, concentrated milk, and milk powder products use approximately 15% of annual raw milk production. Similar to cheese and fluid milk, dairy processing of these products can be energy intensive. In this paper, we analyzed production and energy data compiled through extensive literature reviews on butter, concentrated milk, milk and whey powder processing across various countries and plants. Magnitudes of national final and primary specific energy consumption (SEC) exhibited large variations across dairy products; in addition, the final SEC of individual plants and products exhibited significant variations within a country and between countries. Furthermore, we quantified national energy intensity indicators (Ells) accounting for dairy product mixes and technological advancement. The significant variations of SEC and Ell values indicate a high degree of likelihood that there is significant potential for energy savings in the global dairy processing industry. Based upon the study samples, we estimate potential energy savings for dairy processing industry in selected countries, and estimates annual reduction of 9-14 million metric-ton carbon-equivalent(1) could be achieved if measures are implemented to lower SEC values by 50-80% in half of global dairy plants. The paper calls for publication of more energy data from the dairy processing industry. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We present a mesh optimization algorithm for adaptively improving the finite element interpolation of a function of interest. The algorithm minimizes an objective function by swapping edges and moving nodes. Numerical experiments are performed on model problems. The results illustrate that the mesh optimization algorithm can reduce the W (1,a) semi-norm of the interpolation error. For these examples, the L (2), L (a), and H (1) norms decreased also.

AB Finite element mesh adaptation methods can be used to improve the efficiency and accuracy of solutions to computational modeling problems. In many applications involving hexahedral meshes, localized modifications which preserve a conforming all-hexahedral mesh are desired. Effective hexahedral refinement methods that satisfy these criteria have recently become available; however, due to hexahedral mesh topology constraints, little progress has been made in the area of hexahedral coarsening. This paper presents a new method to locally coarsen conforming all-hexahedral meshes. The method works on both structured and unstructured meshes and is not based on undoing previous refinement. Building upon recent developments in quadrilateral coarsening, the method utilizes hexahedral sheet and column operations, including pillowing, column collapsing, and sheet extraction. A general algorithm for automated coarsening is presented and examples of models that have been coarsened with this new algorithm are shown. While results are promising, further work is needed to improve the automated process.

AB The electrochemical reduction of CO2 was studied utilizing halide ions as electrolytes, specifically, aqueous solutions of KCl, KBr, Kl. Electrochemical experiments were carried out in a laboratory-made, divided H-type cell. The working electrode was a copper mesh, while the counter and reference electrodes were a Pt wire and an Ag/AgCl electrode, respectively. The results of our work suggest a reaction mechanism for the electrochemical reduction of CO2 where the presence of Cu-X as the catalytic layer facilitates the electron transfer from the electrode to CO2. Electron-transfer to CO2 may occur via the X-ad(-)(Br-, Cl-, I-)-C bond, which is formed by the electron flow from the specifically adsorbed halide anion to the vacant orbital of CO2. The stronger the adsorption of the halide anion to the electrode, the more strongly CO2 is restrained, resulting in higher CO2 reduction current. Furthermore, it is suggested that specifically adsorbed halide anions could suppress the adsorption of protons; leading to a higher hydrogen overvoltage. These effects may synergistically mitigate the over potential necessary for CO2 reduction, and thus increase the rate of electrochemical CO2 reduction.

AB We consider the connection to the harmonic oscillator, super-symmetric quantum mechanics (SUSY-QM) and coherent states of the recently derived constrained Heisenberg "minimum uncertainty" (mu-) wavelets [Phys Rev Lett 85:5263 (2000); Phys Rev A65: 052106-1 (2002); J Phys Chem A107:7318 (2003)1 We analyze several new types of raising and lowering operators,which also can be viewed as arising from a (non-unitary) similarity transformation of the Harmonic Oscillator Hamiltonian and ladder operators. We show that these new ladder operators lead to a new SUSY formalism for harmonic oscillation, so that the A-wavelets naturally manifest SUSY properties. Using these new ladder operators, we construct coherent and supercoherent states for the oscillator. In the discussion, we consider possible implications of similarity transformations for quantum mechanics. In an appendix we consider the classical limit of the A-wavelet oscillator.

AB The electronic properties of arrays of carbon nanotubes from several different sources differing in the manufacturing process used with a variety of average properties such as length, diameter, and chirality are studied. We used several common surfactants to disperse each of these nanotubes and then deposited them on Si wafers from their aqueous solutions using dielectrophoresis. Transport measurements were performed to compare and determine the effect of different surfactants, deposition processes, and synthesis processes on nanotubes synthesized using CVD, CoMoCAT, laser ablation, and HiPCO.

AB A new single-shot technique based on linear spectral interferometry between a temporally short reader pulse and a temporally long probe pulse is demonstrated for measuring the spatiotemporal phase and amplitude of an optical probe for use as an ultrafast diagnostic. The probe spatiotemporal field information is recovered, with a resolution set by the duration of the reader pulse, by applying a single Fourier transform operation to the interferogram image, without need of any reference data. The technique was used in conjunction with electro-optic sampling to measure waveforms of coherent, ultrashort THz pulses emitted by electron bunches from a laser-plasma accelerator with sub- 50 fs resolution. The presence of strong spatiotemporal coupling in the THz waveforms and of complex temporal electron-bunch structure was determined. (C) 2010 Optical Society of America

AB A detailed method for air-processed, inverted Organic Photovoltaic (OPV) devices using lamination of the metal electrode with a doped conducting polymer adhesive is presented. A poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) - [6,6] phenyl C(61) butyric methyl ester (PCBM) bulk heterojunction is used, with a solution-processed ZnO electron collection layer. The top contact consists of modified polyethylene dioxythiophene: polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) that is spin-coated onto a Ag electrode, and the entire structure is laminated onto the active layer. Lamination produces devices with 3.19% power conversion efficiency at 1 sun illumination, which is higher than the value for control devices produced with the standard sequential process with an evaporated top metal electrode. The laminated interface yields an ohmic contact, as shown by the high fill factor and low series resistance of the laminated devices compared to devices with a thermally evaporated top metal electrode. We examine the lamination parameters and their effect on device performance, and we identify the treatment of the adhesion layer to be one of the more important parameters to control for efficient devices. The optimized protocol described here allows one to fabricate efficient inverted OPV devices in air, without the need for an expensive, high quality evaporation chamber for top contact deposition.

AB Secondary walls have recently drawn research interest as a primary source of sugars for liquid biofuel production. Secondary walls are composed of a complex mixture of the structural polymers cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. A matrix of hemicellulose and lignin surrounds the cellulose component of the plant's cell wall in order to protect the cell from enzymatic attacks. Such resistance, along with the variability seen in the proportions of the major components of the mixture, presents process design and operating challenges to the bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass to fuel. Expanding bioenergy production to the commercial scale will require a significant improvement in the growth of feedstock as well as in its quality. Plant biotechnology offers an efficient means to create "targeted" changes in the chemical and physical properties of the resulting biomass through pathway-specific manipulation of metabolisms. The successful use of the genetic engineering approach largely depends on the development of two enabling tools: (1) the discovery of regulatory genes involved in key pathways that determine the quantity and quality of the biomass, and (2) utility promoters that can drive the expression of the introduced genes in a highly controlled manner spatially and/or temporally. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of the transcriptional regulatory network that controls secondary wall biosynthesis and discuss experimental approaches to developing-xylem-specific utility promoters.

AB The singular stress field generated at the intersection of a grain boundary and a stress-free edge is investigated for a columnar polycrystal. An idealized, plane strain geometry that embeds four columnar cubic crystals within an effective isotropic media is analyzed. This idealized problem permits a detailed finite element analysis that can resolve the nature of stress singularities. Particular emphasis is placed on characterizing the magnitude of the stress fields and defining the size of the region dominated by the singularity. The effects of crystal and grain boundary orientation combinations and crystal properties are examined. [DOI: 10.1115/1.4002118]

AB Amine systems are effective for CO2 capture, but they are still inefficient because the solvent regeneration energy is largely defined by the amount of water in the process. Most amines form heat-stable salts with SO2 and COS resulting in parasitic solvent loss and degradation. Stripping the CO2-rich solvent is energy intensive it requires temperatures above 100 degrees C due to the high specific heat and heat of vaporization of water. CO2-capture processes can be much more energy efficient in a water free process. In addition, if the capture-material can be chemically compatible with other acid gases, less solvent would be lost to heat-stable salts and the process economics would be further improved. One such system that can address these concerns is Binding Organic Liquids (BOLs), a class of switchable ionic liquids. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Aqueous ammonia solvents that capture CO2 as ionic complexes of carbonates with ammonium have recently been advanced as alternatives to amine-based solvents due to their lower energy requirements for thermal regeneration. In ammonia based solvents, the hydration of CO2 to form bicarbonate may become a rate-limiting step as the CO2 loading increases and the resulting pH level of the solvent decreases. Variants of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase can accelerate the reversible hydration of CO2 to yield bicarbonate by more than 10(6)-fold. The possible benefit of bovine carbonic anhydrase (BCA) addition to solutions of aqueous ammonia to enhance CO2 hydration was investigated in semi-batch reactions within continuously stirred tank reactors or in a bubble column gas-liquid contactor. Adding 154 mg/liter of BCA to 2 M aqueous ammonia provided a 34.1% overall increase in the rate of CO2 hydration (as indicated by the production of [H+]) as the pH declined from 9.6 to 8.6 during sparging with a 15% CO2, 85% N-2 gas at a flow rate of 3 lpm. The benefits of adding BCA to enhance CO2 hydration were only discernable below similar to pH 9. The implications of the apparent pH limitations on the utility of BCA are discussed in the context of absorber unit operation design. Possible embodiments of carbonic anhydrase as either an immobilized catalyst or as a dissolved, recirculating catalyst in potential plant scale aqueous ammonia systems are considered as well.

AB Robust ultrathin polymer membranes offer significant technical and economic advantage over conventional carbon capture methods due to their potential for high throughput, high selectivity, and relative ease of implementation. We have been developing a simple, ultrathin, polymer membrane system to capture CO2 from post-combustion industrial exhaust streams. The approach involves nano-engineered membrane fabrication using an LLNL-developed solvent-less vapor deposition followed by in-situ polymerization (SLIP) process. The SLIP process vapor deposits ultrathin polymer films onto high throughput substrates to fabricate composite membranes. Single component gas permeation tests for PMDA-ODA films with thicknesses between 100-1000 nm were conducted. Permeability was found to be in the 30-100 Barrer range while maintaining CO2/N-2 selectivity of similar to 20:1. Membrane performance may be enhanced via improved film quality, reduced thickness, the development of new materials which are compatible with the SLIP process, and a modeling effort to understand the underlying transport phenomena within the membrane material.

AB One method for CO2 capture is to dissolve CO2 in water to form carbonic acid. This reaction (CO2 + H(2)0 -> H2CO3(aq)) is remarkably slow but is catalyzed in biological systems by an enzyme called carbonic anhydrase (CA). The catalyzed reaction is diffusion limited and occurs at near neutral pH. The enzyme catalytic center is composed of a Zn(II) ion that is coordinated by 3 histidine residues and an axial water/hydroxyl group. A nucleophilic attack by the hydroxyl group on the CO2 molecule is the first step in the reaction mechanism. Cu(II), Hg(II), Cd(II), Ni(II), Co(II) and Mn(II) can bind the CA binding site and substitute the zinc ion; however, only Co(II) yields rates comparable to Zn(II). Unfortunately, an enzyme, such as carbonic anhydrase, is not amenable for industrial applications where a wide range of physico-chemical conditions exist. Enzymes are vulnerable to large pressures, high temperature, and high ionic strength. Efforts to isolate the key structural features responsible for catalysis led to the development of small-molecule mimetics of the CA catalytic site. These mimetics can, in turn, be used as catalyst for CO2 sequestration. Two of the fastest catalyst are the cyclic molecules: 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododedacane and 1,5,9-triazacyclododedacane (both complexed with a Zn(II) ion). Nitrogen atoms in these cyclic molecules mimic the imidazole nitrogens of the CA active site. It is possible to examine the energetics of these compounds using transition state theory for the purposes of designing more efficient catalysts. Transition state theory predicts that the reaction rate constant is proportional to exp(-E-a/kT), where E-a denotes the activation energy, k the Boltzmann constant, and T the temperature of the reaction. The activation energy is the energetic cost of forming the reaction transition state from the reactants. Ab initio calculations can yield the activation energy, which can, in principle, be used as a design metric for more efficient catalysts.
Using this approach, the difference in kinetic rate constant between the tetra-and tri-aza dodecane catalysts can be determined. Furthermore, the rates of the corresponding Co(II) catalysts were explored. Our data suggests this is a viable method for the design of inorganic small-molecule catalysts.

AB A significant number of efforts are underway to develop and assess technologies that will lead to technically and economically viable routes to reduce the CO2 emissions of fossil energy systems, particularly coal-fired power plants. Developing technologies to reduce emissions from these sources is essential for controlling atmospheric levels of CO2 because of the widespread reliance on coal as an inexpensive and abundant energy source. Two major systems-level design challenges exist. The first is how to design new plants that incorporate CCS technology. The second is how to retrofit existing plants to capture CO2. Both design challenges can benefit from an optimization approach, which considers the application of multiple potential technologies and analyzes ways in which the whole plant-wide system can be integrated to increase overall efficiency. This paper will present a modular framework for the analysis and optimization of power generation systems with CCS that helps to meet these design challenges.
In order to more completely understand the economic and operational tradeoffs associated with the various potential carbon capture technologies, and how they can be applied to new and existing plants, a unified, systemic framework has been developed to provide a common basis for evaluation. Given the complexity of the design problem and the fact that new technologies are continually being developed, this framework is modular in nature and incorporates algorithms for the selection, integration and optimization of carbon capture technologies for both new and existing plants. In addition to the framework itself, this paper discusses simulation modules representing various capture technologies and power plant components. The framework provides the means to link the various modules together in order to provide a holistic, systems perspective of plant wide operations. Results of analyses and optimization scenarios performed with the framework are also presented. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Widespread adoption of carbon [dioxide] capture and storage (CCS) is limited by infrastructure, market, and cost barriers. Like most nascent technologies, it will be critical to overcome these barriers to fully realize the potential of CCS. Capturing CO2 from the oil refining process and using this CO2 for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is an appealing scenario for knocking down these barriers, jumpstarting a CCS industry, and driving down the cost of CCS technology. CO2 capture from oil refineries can be relatively inexpensive when compared to other stationary sources (supply), EOR provides a market for CO2 (demand), and the spatial proximity of oil fields and refineries reduces transportation issues (cost, right of way, etc.). The oil industry should play a key role in the evolution of CCS since it has vested interests and experience with capturing, transporting, and injecting (and storing) CO2 underground.
In this paper we study the deployment of CCS infrastructure to support CO2 capture from the oil refining industry and EOR and long term geologic storage of the CO2 for the U.S. Gulf States. This region accounts for approximately 45% of U.S. refining capacity, a large percentage of active EOR projects, and an extensive network of pipeline rights-of-way (natural gas, crude and refined oil) including over 80% of the existing CO2 pipelines. Presently, the oil industry predominantly uses natural sources of CO2 for EOR; an obvious goal of integrating CCS technology into the oil industry is displace the natural CO2 sources with anthropogenic CO2. The region is also responsible for approximately 450 MtCO(2) emissions annually from fossil-fuel electricity generation; an oil industry-driven CO2 market and CCS infrastructure could provide the necessary stimulus for capturing this CO2 in the coming decades.
Our approach uses an economic-engineering model to geospatially deploy CCS infrastructure (capture, transportation, and storage) in response to a price on CO2 or a desired CO2 capture amount. The model considers and integrates each of the interdependent CCS components. It calculates at which oil refineries it is cost-effective to capture CO2, where and how new CO2 pipelines should be networked together, and which EOR oil fields balance CCS costs and CO2 credit as well as providing the best long term storage potential. The combination of capture, transport, and storage infrastructure is highly dependent on the CO2 price, both as an inducement (for EOR) and disincentive (price to emit CO2). Consequently, we examine how the expansion of CCS infrastructure could develop given differing CO2 scenarios, including variation in capture and storage costs. Our results show how a CO2 management network (capture, transport, and storage infrastructure) could develop given a set of oil refineries and EOR reservoirs in the U.S. Gulf Coast region. The model outputs and results can be used to help plan policy and regulation for CO2 capture and storage, and help guide how the oil industry could jumpstart a CCS industry.

ID MINERAL SOLUBILITIES; PREDICTION; SYSTEM
AB Brines up to 85,000 ppm total dissolved solids produced during Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) operations in saline formations may be used as the feedstock for desalination and water treatment technologies via reverse osmosis (RO). The aquifer pressure resulting from the injection of carbon dioxide can provide all or part of the inlet pressure for the desalination system. Residual brine from such a process could be reinjected into the formation at net volume reduction, such that the volume of fresh water extracted is comparable to the volume of CO2 injected into the formation. Such a process could provide additional CO2 storage capacity in the aquifer, reduce operational risks (e. g., fracturing, seismicity, leaking) by relieving overpressure in the formation, and provide a source of low-cost fresh water to offset costs or operational water needs equal to about half the water usage of a typical coal ICGG power plant. We call the combined processes of brine removal, treatment, and pressure management active reservoir management.
We have examined a range of saline formation water compositions propose a general categorization for the feasibility of the process based total dissolved solids (TDS):
10,000-40,000 mg/L TDS: Standard RO with >= 50% recovery
40,000-85,000 mg/L TDS: Standard RO with >= 10% recovery; higher recovery possible using 1500 psi RO membranes and/or multi-stage incremental desalination likely including NF (nanofiltration)
85,000-300,000 mg/L TDS: Multi-stage process using process design that may differ significantly from seawater systems
> 300,000 mg/L TDS brines: Not likely to be treatable
Brines in the 10,000-85,000 mg/L TDS range appear to be abundant (geographically and with depth) and could be targeted in planning CCS operations. Costs for desalination of fluids from saline aquifers are in the range of $400-1000/acre foot of permeate when storage aquifer pressures exceed 1200 psi. This is about half of conventional seawater desalination costs of $1000-1400/acre foot. Costs increase by 30 to 50% when pressure must be added at the surface. The primary reason for the cost reduction in pressurized aquifers relative to seawater is the lack of need for energy to drive the high-pressure pumps. An additional cost savings has to do with less pre-treatment than is customary for ocean waters full of biological activity and their degradation products. An innovative parallel low-recovery approach is proposed that would be particularly effective for saline formation waters in the 40,000-85,000 mg/L TDS range. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

DE CCS; EOR; deep saline formation; economics
AB This paper explores the impact of the temporally dynamic demand for CO2 for CCS-coupled EOR by evaluating the variable demand for new (i.e., non-recycled) anthropogenic CO2 within EOR projects and the extent to which EOR-coupled CCS is compatible with the need for baseload CO2 storage options for large anthropogenic point sources. A profile of CO2 demand over an assumed EOR project lifetime is applied across two different storage scenarios to illustrate the differences in cost associated with different EOR-coupled CCS configurations. The first scenario pairs a single EOR field with a DSF used to store any CO2 that is not used to increase oil recovery in the EOR field; the second scenario is designed to minimize storage in the DSF and maximize lower-cost EOR-based storage by bringing multiple EOR projects online over time as the previous project's CO2 demand declines, making the source's CO2 available for a subsequent project. Each scenario is evaluated for two facilities, emitting 3 and 6 MtCO(2)/y. Annual and lifetime average CO2 transport and storage costs are presented, and the impact of added capture and compression costs on overall project economics is examined.
The research reported here suggests that the cost of implementing a CCS-coupled EOR project will be more than is typically assumed; in many cases a positive price on CO2 emitted to the atmosphere will be required to motivate deployment of these CO2-based EOR projects, except in the most idealized cases. The reasons for this conclusion are twofold. First, the costs of capitalizing, operating and monitoring a secondary DSF to provide backup storage for CO2 not demanded by the EOR operation can cut sharply into EOR revenues. Second, except in cases where a single firm figures both the CO2 source emissions and the associated EOR recovery on the same balance sheet, the oil production company is not likely to share a significant portion of revenues from the EOR field with the CO2 source. Thus, while EOR-coupled CCS may offer attractive early opportunities, these opportunities are likely only available to a small fraction of the CO2 source fleet in the U.S. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB This study focuses on the basin and site scales to identify physical constraints for CO2 injection and source-sink infrastructure. We analyze the sequestration of CO2 emissions associated with conventional and unconventional fossil fuel development in the Uinta-Piceance Basins, Colorado and Utah, USA. This area is underlain by abundant saline formations with excellent potential geologic sequestration. Land access, as a proxy for pore space access, is an important consideration in this area of rugged terrain, protected natural areas, and Indian and private lands. We integrate a model of geologic CO2 sequestration (CO2-PENS) and a model of infrastructure optimization (SimCCS) to evaluate the design of CCS infrastructure under uncertainty.
This research focuses on the effect of uncertainty in properties of sequestration reservoirs on CCS infrastructure, including the dedicated CO2 pipeline network and which sources should capture CO2 or where new CO2 emitting facilities should be located. CO2 source emissions and capture costs can be estimated with reasonable certainty based on current separation technologies. In contrast, the actual capacity and injectivity of saline aquifers (sinks) may vary over several orders of magnitude compared with estimated values, due to geologic heterogeneities that affect porosity, permeability, thickness, and extent of the saline aquifers.
We report on modeling using CO2-PENS, an injectivity/capacity and risk assessment simulator package for geologic sequestration, and SimCCS, a geospatial decision optimization model for comprehensively designing CCS infrastructure. CO2-PENS uses statistically distributed input parameter values to characterize CO2 migration through the sequestration reservoir, caprock, and overlying freshwater aquifers, as well as potential leakage pathways like wellbores and faults. Representative parameter ranges were developed for the Cretaceous Castlegate and Jurassic Entrada sandstones, widespread permeable saline formations in the Uinta-Piceance basins. A GIS mask based on land use, land ownership, slope, and hydrology was developed to define land surface access for developing sequestration sites. Several sites of varying area and formation depth were defined for both the Castlegate and Entrada formations. Using the Monte Carlo modeling capability of CO2-PENS, multiple realizations were run for each site in order to develop probability density functions (PDFs) of reservoir capacity and cost for sequestration of various rates of CO2 delivery. These PDFs were provided to SimCCS for use in the calculation of optimal pipeline networks among CO2 sources and sinks. SimCCS plans CCS infrastructure with respect to objective functions that include information on financial budget, regional CO2 capture target, or a price on carbon (i.e., what scale of infrastructure is economically feasible). Because the model simultaneously examines source-network-sink components, it is ideal for analyzing the impact of sink uncertainty on overall CCS infrastructure. Model outputs include CCS costs, spatial network routing, and the scale at which deploying CCS infrastructure makes sense.
Coupling CO2-PENS and SimCCS, both state-of-the-art models, allows us for the first time to examine how reservoir uncertainty propagates through, or even drives, the entire CCS infrastructure system. In our study this effect is evidenced by preferential selection of sinks with spatially proximal alternatives, robust pipeline networks that can respond to changes in CO2 flow, and sources chosen that make economical sense (though not necessarily financially optimal) and integrate well into a dynamic CCS system.

DE CO2; carbon capture and storage; China; USA; cost curves
AB The United States and China are the two largest emitters of greenhouse gases in the world and their projected continued growth and reliance on fossil fuels - especially coal - make them strong candidates for the large-scale deployment of carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) systems in a greenhouse gas constrained world. Previous work has revealed that both nations have over 1600 large electric utility and other industrial point CO2 sources as well as very large CO2 storage resources on the order of 2000 billion metric tons (Gt) of onshore storage capacity. In each case, the vast majority of this capacity is found in deep saline formations. In both the USA and China, candidate storage reservoirs are likely to be widely accessible with over 80% of these large industrial CO2 sources having a CO2 storage option within just 80 km. This suggests a strong potential for CCS to help bring about meaningful, sustained CO2 emissions reductions for these large, vibrant economies. However, while the USA and China possess many similarities with regards to the potential value that CCS might provide, including the range of costs at which CCS may be available to most large CO2 sources in each nation, there are a number of more subtle differences that may help us to understand the ways in which CCS deployment may differ as the the two nations work together - and in step with the rest of the world - to most efficiently reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This paper details the first ever analysis of CCS deployment costs in these two countries based on methodologically comparable CO2 source and sink inventories, economic analysis, geospatial source-sink matching and cost curve modeling. This type of analysis provides valuable insight into the degree to which early and sustained opportunities for climate change mitigation via commercial-scale CCS are available to the two countries, and could facilitate greater collaboration in areas where those opportunities overlap.

AB The success of carbon capture and storage (CCS) in reducing CO2 emissions on a large scale will depend on effectively deploying CCS infrastructure. Key decisions will include where to build new capture-ready power plants or retrofit existing facilities, how to construct an integrated and robust CO2 pipeline network, and which geologic reservoirs offer the best and safest storage potential. Critically, the capture, transportation, and storage components are highly interdependent and must be considered simultaneously.
In previous work, we have developed and applied a CCS system optimization model that simultaneously optimizes the investments in, and operation of, the source capture facilities, the pipeline network, and the geologic sinks. The simCCS model combines GIS and operations research techniques to optimize seven sets of decisions simultaneously: source capture investment; source capture amounts; pipeline network configuration; pipeline diameters; routing of CO2 amounts through the pipeline; sink injection investment; and sink injection amounts. In choosing the corridors for the pipelines, the model considers geographic factors such as steep topography, protected lands, urban areas, and rivers and roads. SimCCS develops a fully integrated and networked CO2 pipeline network in which pipelines can merge and branch to create trunk lines that reduce the overall network length and take advantage of cost savings through economies of scale and high capacity utilization.
In this paper, we demonstrate the cost savings of using a model like simCCS to optimize simultaneously the seven key CCS decisions. Using a case study of the Midwest USA consisting of eight coal-fired power plants and seven depleted oil fields as potential sources and sinks, we use simCCS to optimize a networked CCS infrastructure system with trunk and feeder pipelines. We then compare those results to constrained runs of simCCS in which the pipeline branching capability is restricted to allow only direct pipelines between single sources and single sinks. For small amounts of CO2 captured, the optimal networks are the same, but as soon as the system requires more than one source and sink, the advantages of networking the pipelines begin to emerge. For systems involving more than one source and sink, total costs average 6.5% lower for networked systems than for direct systems, based on savings of 2% on source costs, 34% on transport costs, and 22% on sink costs. The source and sink savings are generated in the model by connecting the less expensive sources and sinks to the pipeline network. The total length of pipelines for the networked system is on average 43% lower, and pipeline capacity utilization is 12% higher. This analysis helps to demonstrate why comprehensive infrastructure modeling is important to the financial success of CCS. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB This paper explores the resource intensity and major cost elements of direct air capture of carbon dioxide. The levelized cost of carbon removal is calculated as the sum of costs resulting from interdependent capture devices, energy supplies, water supplies and sequestration resources. The analysis considers "generic" air capture technology characterized only by its energy use, capture footprint, and water use. Capital costs dominate the analysis, followed by energy efficiency. Four dedicated energy resources are considered: wind, enhanced geothermal, natural gas combined cycle (NGCC), and NGCC with 90% carbon capture. Nearly carbon-free energy is critical to keeping overall cost of carbon mitigation low. The analysis shows that high second law capture efficiencies (on the order of 10%) and relatively inexpensive capture devices (on the order $0.5M for an individual device capturing one tonne CO2/day) must be achieved if the cost of air capture is to approach $300/tonne-CO2. Reaching those goals is likely to require substantial research into the kinetics and thermodynamics of capture chemistry which, respectively, keep the capital and energy costs as low as possible.

AB Food-grade CO2 was injected into a shallow aquifer through a perforated pipe placed horizontally 1-2 m below the water table at the Montana State University Zero Emission Research and Technology (MSU-ZERT) field site at Bozeman, Montana. The possible impact of elevated CO2 levels on groundwater quality was investigated by analyzing 80 water samples taken before, during, and following CO2 injection. Field determinations and laboratory analyses showed rapid and systematic changes in pH, alkalinity, and conductance, as well as increases in the aqueous concentrations of trace element species. The geochemical data were first evaluated using principal component analysis (PCA) in order to identify correlations between aqueous species. The PCA findings were then used in formulating a geochemical model to simulate the processes likely to be responsible for the observed increases in the concentrations of dissolved constituents. Modeling was conducted taking into account aqueous and surface complexation, cation exchange, and mineral precipitation and dissolution. Reasonable matches between measured data and model results suggest that: (1) CO2 dissolution in the groundwater causes calcite to dissolve. (2) Observed increases in the concentration of dissolved trace metals result likely from Ca+2-driven ion exchange with clays (smectites) and sorption/desorption reactions likely involving Fe (hydr)oxides. (3) Bicarbonate from CO2 dissolution appears to compete for sorption with anionic species such as HAsO4-2, potentially increasing dissolved As levels in groundwater.

ID SEDIMENT; CALCITE
AB A vital aspect to public and regulatory acceptance of carbon sequestration is assurance that groundwater resources will be protected. Theoretical and laboratory studies can, to some extent, be used to predict the consequences of leakage. However, direct observations of CO2 flowing through shallow drinking water aquifers are invaluable for informing credible risk assessments. To this end, we have sampled shallow wells in a natural analog site in New Mexico, USA, where CO2 from natural sources is upwelling from depth. We collected major ion, trace element, and isotopic (H-3, O-18, and Sr) data and, coupled with laboratory experiments and reactive transport modeling, have concluded that the major control on groundwater quality at this site is not chemical reaction of CO2 with the aquifer but intrusion of saline waters upwelling with the CO2.
Using reactive transport modeling based on field data, we show the difference in reactivity of the CO2 and CO2/saline water source terms, particularly with respect to carbonate mineralogy. Sr isotopes were used to investigate whether aquifer waters were affected by carbonate mineral reaction with CO2 or by saline water intrusion. Preliminary data suggest that Sr isotopes can successfully be used to discriminate between the two types of source terms at Chimayo; this technique shows promise for monitoring CCS sites.
In developing predictive capabilities for future sites, it is critical to identify the solid phases and specific reactions controlling dissolved trace metal concentrations in both the presence and absence of CO2. We have conducted laboratory experiments to identify these phases and have found that some elements (e.g., U, Ca) are largely controlled by ion exchange and/or carbonate minerals. In the experiments, the concentration of some metals increases after exposure to CO2 (although concentrations remain below the U.S. EPA primary drinking water standards); we are currently extending these experiments to determine if the reactions causing the increase are reversible and, if so, on what time scales. Metal scavenging by secondary mineral precipitation, as observed at other natural analog sites, may be important at certain temporal scales.
We are using the information gained from this field and laboratory study to develop predictive models for application to risk assessment at future CCS sites. The models will be particularly useful in identifying the temporal and spatial scales of water quality changes and in developing possible mitigation strategies in the case of leaks at engineered CCS sites.

AB Large-scale carbon capture and storage projects involve injecting CO2 into a porous, permeable formation that is overlain by an impermeable "caprock". The In Salah Project (a joint venture of BP, Statoil and Sonatrach) includes a CO2 sequestration effort that has successfully injected just over three million of tons of CO2 into a deep saline formation close to a producing gas field in Algeria. We have performed detailed simulations of the hydromechanical response in the vicinity of the KB-502 CO2 injector specifically because the morphology of the observed surface deformation differed from that above the other injectors at the field. Associated with the injection, we have simulated the mm-scale uplift of the overburden and compared the results with observed deformation using InSAR data. Our results indicate that the best fit is obtained through a combination of reservoir and fault pressurization (rather than either alone). However, our analysis had to make assumptions regarding the mechanical properties of the faults and the overburden. These results demonstrate that InSAR provides a powerful tool for gaining insight into fluid fate in the subsurface, but also highlight the need for detailed, accurate static geomodels.

AB The Midwest Geological Sequestration Consortium is conducting a large-scale carbon capture and storage (CCS) project in Decatur, Illinois, USA to demonstrate the ability of a deep saline formation to store one million tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) from an ethanol facility. Beginning in early 2011, CO2 will be injected at a rate of 1,000 tonnes/day for three years into the Mount Simon Sandstone at a depth of approximately 2,100 meters.
An extensive Monitoring, Verification, and Accounting (MVA) program has been undertaken for the Illinois Basin Decatur Project (IBDP) and is focused on the 0.65 km(2) project site. Goals include establishing baseline conditions to evaluate potential impacts from CO2 injection, demonstrating that project activities are protective of human health and the environment, and providing an accurate accounting of stored CO2. MVA efforts are being conducted pre-, during, and post-CO2 injection. Soil and net CO2 flux monitoring has been conducted for more than one year to characterize near-surface CO2 conditions. More than 2,200 soil CO2 flux measurements have been manually collected from a network of 118 soil rings since June 2009. Three ring types have been evaluated to determine which type may be the most effective in detecting potential CO2 leakage. Bare soil, shallow-depth rings were driven 8 cm into the ground and were prepared to minimize surface vegetation in and near the rings. Bare soil, deep-depth rings were prepared similarly, but were driven 46 cm. Natural-vegetation, shallow-depth rings were driven 8 cm and are most representative of typical vegetation conditions. Bare-soil, shallow-depth rings had the smallest observed mean flux (1.78 mu mol m(-2)s(-1)) versus natural-vegetation, shallow-depth rings (3.38 mu mol m(-2)s(-1)). Current data suggest bare ring types would be more sensitive to small CO2 leak signatures than natural ring types because of higher signal to noise ratios.
An eddy covariance (EC) system has been in use since June 2009. Baseline data from EC monitoring is being used to characterize pre-injection conditions, and may then be used to detect changes in net exchange CO2 fluxes (F-c) that could be the result of CO2 leakage into the near-surface environment during or following injection. When injection at IBDP begins, soil and net CO2 monitoring efforts will have established a baseline of near-surface conditions that will be important to help demonstrate the effectiveness of storage activities.

AB The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is the lead federal agency for the development and deployment of carbon sequestration technologies. The Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships (RCSPs) are the mechanism DOE utilizes to prove the technology and to develop human capital, stakeholder networks, information for regulatory policy, best practices documents and training to work toward the commercialization of carbon capture and storage (CCS). The RCSPs are tasked with determining the most suitable technologies, regulations, and infrastructure for carbon capture, transport, and storage in their respective geographic areas of responsibility. The seven partnerships include more than 400 state agencies, universities, national laboratories, private companies, and environmental organizations, spanning 43 states and four Canadian provinces.
The Regional Partnerships Initiative is being implemented in three phases: Characterization, Validation, and Development. The initial Characterization Phase began in 2003 and was completed in 2005 and focused on characterization of CO2 storage potential within each region. It was followed by the Validation Phase, which began in 2005 and is nearing completion in 2011. The focus of the Validation Phase has been on small-scale field tests throughout the seven partnerships in various formation types such as saline, oil-bearing, and coal seams. The Validation Phase has characterized suitable CO2 storage reservoirs and identified the need for comprehensive legal and regulatory frameworks to enable commercial-scale CCS deployment. Finally, the Development Phase will consist of a series of large-scale, one-million-ton, injection tests throughout the United States and Canada. The objective of these large-scale tests is to identify the regulatory path or challenges in permitting CCS projects, to demonstrate the technology can inject CO2 safely, and to verify its permanence in geologic formations in preparation for the commercialization of geologic sequestration.

DE Carbon Sequestration; Field Test; Monitoring
AB The Southeast Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership (SECARB) early project in western Mississippi has been testing monitoring tools and approaches to document storage efficiency and storage permanence under conditions of CO2 EOR as well as downdip injection into brine. Denbury Onshore LLC is host for the study and has brought a depleted oil and gas reservoir, Cranfield Field, under CO2 flood. Injection was started in July 2008 and has now achieved injection rates greater than 1.2 million tons/year though 23 wells, with cumulative mass injected as of August, 2010 of 2.2 million metric tons. Injection is into coarse grained fluvial deposits of the Cretaceous lower Tuscaloosa Formation in a gentle anticline at depths of 3300 m. A team of researchers from 10 institutions has collected data from five study areas, each with a different goal and different spatial and temporal scale.
The Phase 2 study began at the start of injection and has been using pressure and temperature as a tool for assessing permanence mostly in the oil productive interval. Real-time read-out shows high sensitivity to distant changes in injection rate and confirms the geologic model of reservoir compartmentalization. Above-zone pressure monitoring similar to 120 m above the injection interval is used to test the sensitivity of this approach for documentation of integrity of the confining system in an area of numerous well completions as pressure increase is induced in the reservoir by more than 70 bar.
Monitoring of the High Volume Injection Test (HiVIT) area includes repeat measurements of aqueous geochemistry in the injection zone. Rock-water-CO2 interactions in the reservoir as CO2 dissolves are minimized by mineral "armoring" by abundant chlorite cement in high permeability reservoir sandstone. Geochemical monitoring of confined freshwater aquifers at depths of 70-100 m is underway. Groundwater analysis focuses on assessment of the sensitivity of this method to detect leakage above background variability.
A repeat seismic survey of the HiVIT is planned for late 2010 to assess saturation change especially in downdip brine-only areas. A study focused on feasibility of monitoring the shallow subsurface to separate leakage from normal complex surface fluxes is underway at an monitoring array installed in October 2009 to assess the interactions of recharge, soil gas, and shallow groundwater aquifers. Recent well re-entry and tracer injection will provide further information to interpret observed elevated deep-sourced methane.
The Detailed Area Study (DAS) is collecting dense time-lapse data from closely-spaced three well array of an injector and two observation wells. The observation wells were completed with fiberglass casing to facilitate electrical resistance tomography (ERT) measurements, and a diverse array of instrumentation was both cemented behind casing and suspended on tubing. Injection started at the DAS December 1, 2009. We have measured pulsed neutron and resistivity via wireline, downhole and above-zone pressure, distributed temperature, and fluid chemistry including introduced pulses of perfluorocarbons, noble gases, and SF6 as tracers. Between wells, time-lapse cross-well seismic and electrical resistance tomography (ERT) are used to measure saturation change. The goals are to measure changes as fluids evolve from single phase (brine) to two phase (CO2-brine) in order to document linkages between pressure and sweep efficiency. A time-lapse VSP survey bridges the vertical resolution and areal coverage between cross-well and surface seismic. The repeat surveys for many tools are scheduled for September, 2010.
Reservoir characterization based on cores, historic and new wireline log data, production history, hydrologic tests, fluid analysis, and a three-D seismic survey have been used in multiple numerical models to predict reservoir response in order to design effective monitoring strategies and optimize deployment. History matching of observed response to predicted response is used to interpret results and improve confidence in conceptual models and numerical approaches. Probabilistic methods have been used to assess the significant uncertainties resulting from reservoir heterogeneity.

AB The first stage of the CO2CRC Otway Project, located in south-eastern Australia, has stored 65,445 tonnes of CO2-rich gas in the depleted Naylor Gas Field. Comparisons have been made between simulations using the non-isothermal multi-phase flow simulator TOUGH2/EOS7C and the accumulated field data up to and beyond the end of injection. The geological models and the derived simulation models have been able to fit most of the key features of the field data, including the downhole pressure measurements and the arrival time at the observation well. When fitting to the downhole pressure only, the observed arrival time was in the range of uncertainty of the model predictions. The use of multiple geostatistical realisations of heterogeneity demonstrates the importance of capturing the range of uncertainty in the geology and the consequent scatter in forward predictions. Thus the storage of CO2 in the Naylor depleted gas field is shown to be adequately modelled by numerical simulation, and this increases confidence in the suitability of similar depleted gas fields for underground storage.

AB We present recent results of coupled non-isothermal, fluid flow and geomechanical modeling associated with the In Salah CO2 storage operation at the Krechba gas field, Algeria. Much recent modeling efforts have been dedicated to analyze satellite based measurements of ground surface uplift at one of the injection wells where a double-lobe uplift pattern has been observed. Both semi-analytical inverse deformation analyses and coupled numerical modeling have indicated that the observed double-lobe uplift pattern can be explained by injection-induced deformation in a deep vertical fracture zone or fault intersecting the injection well and extending a few hundred meters above the injection zone (up to a depth below 1600 m). Recently, a 3D seismic survey indicated that such a fault or fracture zone may indeed intersect the well with the orientation originally predicted by the semi-analytical inverse deformation analysis. A coupled numerical analysis indicates that observed progressive uplift during active CO2 injection and relatively slower subsidence rate during a subsequent shut-in period could be modeled as an elastic response, i.e. indicating elastic deformation of an existing geological feature rather than the creation of a new hydraulic fracture. Finally, we analyzed the simulation results in terms of reservoir stress evolution and the potential for injection-induced micro-seismicity at Krechba. Our analysis shows that the highest potential for injection-induced micro-seismicity occurs along the horizontal injection wells caused by the combined effects of injection-induced cooling and pressure. However, for the best-estimated present-day strike-slip stress regime at Krechba, our analysis indicates a relatively low potential for injection-induced micro-seismicity.

AB The Scurry Area Canyon Reef Operators Committee (SACROC) field, located in the Permian Basin of West Texas is an enhanced oil recovery (EOR) site into which large volumes of CO2 have been injected. We acquired core samples and 3D seismic surveys from the site in order to better characterize the movement of the CO2 injection plumes. The samples of SACROC reef limestone were used for ultrasonic velocity measurements, detailed mineralogy and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) characterization, Computed Tomography (CT) scanning, thin section studies, and porosity measurements. Using a NER AutoLab 1500 at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) Core Flow Lab we have measured P and S wave velocities, porosity, and permeability at varying pressures, temperatures, and fluid saturations that simulate reservoir conditions after successive floods. Measurements were also taken with supercritical CO2 at in situ pressures and temperatures. We also modeled the expected velocities for our samples using the standard Gassmann and other rock physics. We created a tool that groups grayscale ranges into three categories, cleans boundaries between groups, and produces a polygon map of the macropores, micropores, mineral grains, and matrix. In addition, the CT and SEM pore maps were analyzed to reveal pore shape statistics. Pore volume, area, and connectivity is essential for chemistry experiments that will emulate time exposure of CO2 to limestone. Further, this analysis technique allows us to obtain pore orientation information, which is important in understanding the anisotropic conditions that may affect seismic data. This multi-scale approach can help to characterize what is occurring inside of the reservoir. Fine scale measurements of how CO2 affects pore-space dissolution can help to inform us of any changes in overall reservoir storage capacity due to changing porosity. Core-scale velocity measurements under in situ conditions will allow us to predict changes in future well log or seismic surveys. Combining microscale, mesoscale, and macroscale information should lead to a better understanding of the various processes at work when CO2 is sequestered in a limestone reservoir.

AB In this project three 3-D reflection seismic surveys were analyzed with respect to pre and post stack reflection processing steps that resulted in the identification of a possible pre-stack seismic attribute proxy for subsurface supercritical CO2. The project was part of the Bureau of Economic Geology collaboration with the National Energy Technology Laboratory of the United States Department of Energy and the Bureau of Economic Geology as part of a Southwest Regional CO2 Sequestration Partnership. A variety of processing techniques were used to calculate seismic attributes and invert the seismic post stack seismic data to determine acoustic impedance. Methodologies for acoustic impedance inversion included Model-based inversion, bandwidth limited inversion, colored inversion, sparse spike, and neural network. In addition, pre-stack amplitude variation with offset (AVO) analysis was completed using second order polynomial, third order polynomial, Shuey 2-term, Shuey 3-term, linear, Verm-Hilterman, Aki-Richards 2-term and Aki-Richards 3-term methods. Using a combination of Shuey 3-term coefficients we believe that we have identified a useful proxy for monitoring subsurface CO2. In our analysis the attribute anomaly variation proxy is spatially located above brine fluid, flat bottomed and appears to be pore-phase variation. It follows reasonable trapping geometries and appears to be linked with possible earlier CO2 injection sites. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB As sequestration projects become larger, a framework for addressing potential induced seismicity will become necessary. We have drawn heavily on work done in the geothermal research community as a basis for a best practices approach for geologic storage. The seven step approach involves documentation of the historical natural seismicity, assessment of the potential for induced seismicity, and recommended steps for mitigation of the risk of the induced seismicity. The approach recognizes the importance of addressing the human element in addition to technical issues. The proposed approach is being applied in a sequestration field pilot in California.

AB Storage of CO2 in saline aquifers would be made at supercritical pressure and temperature conditions, but leaking from a geologic storage reservior and migrating towards the land surface (through faults, fractures, or improperly abandoned wells) would reach sub-critical conditions above 500-700 m depth for typical temperature and pressure conditions in terrestrial crust. At shallower horizons, subcritical CO2 can form two-phase mixtures of liquid and gaseous CO2, with significant latent heat effects during boiling and condensation processes. Additional strong non-isothermal effects can arise from decompression of gas-like subcritical CO2, the so-called Joule-Thomson effect. In this paper we describe the development of comprehensive simulation capabilities that can cope with all possible phase conditions in brine-CO2 systems. Our model formulation includes
an accurate description of phase properties as function of temperature, pressure, and composition, including the mutual dissolution of CO2 and H2O in aqueous and CO2-rich phases;
transitions between super- and sub-critical conditions, including phase change between liquid and gaseous CO2;
one-, two-, and three-phase flow of brine-CO2 mixtures, including heat flow;
non-isothermal effects associated with phase change, mutual dissolution of CO2 and water, and (de-) compression effects;
effects of dissolved NaCl, and the possibility of precipitating solid halite, with associated porosity and permeability change.
Application to specific leakage scenarios demonstrate that the peculiar thermophysical properties of CO2 provide a potential for positive as well as negative feedbacks on leakage rate. The interplay of self-enhancing and self-limiting effects on different space and time scales can induce non-monotonic behavior of CO2 flow rates. Such behavior may facilitate monitoring of CO2 storage systems, as it may provide signals that may be more easily distinguished from background noise. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Geologic storage projects associated with large anthropogenic sources of greenhouse gases (GHG) will have lifecycles that may easily span a century, involve several numerical simulation cycles, and have distinct modeling teams. The process used for numerical simulation of the fate of GHG in the subsurface follows a generally consistent sequence of steps that often are replicated by scientists and engineers around the world. Site data is gathered, assembled, interpreted, and assimilated into conceptualizations of a solid-earth model; assumptions are made about the processes to be modeled; a computational domain is specified and spatially discretized; driving forces and initial conditions are defined; the conceptual models, computational domain, and driving forces are translated into input files; simulations are executed; and results are analyzed. Then, during and after the GHG injection, a continuous monitoring of the reservoir is done and models are updated with the newly collected data. Typically the working files generated during all these steps are maintained on workstations with local backups and archived once the project has concluded along with any modeling notes and records. We are proposing a new concept for supporting the management of full-scale GHG storage projects where collaboration, flexibility, accountability and long-term access will be essential features: the Geologic Sequestration Software Suite, GS(3).

AB Injecting CO2 into a subsurface formation causes a buildup of pressure in the vicinity of the injection well. While a large injection rate can reduce the cost associated with injection, an indefinitely large injection rate can result in excessive formation damage. To obtain an optimal injection rate without exceeding the safe pressure limits, one would like to have some knowledge of the transient pressure buildup characteristics resulting from a particular injection rate. Using some simplifying assumptions, we have developed an analytical solution to predict the transient buildup of pressure resulting from injection of supercritical carbon dioxide from a partially penetrating well into a gas reservoir. We use the analytical solution to study pressure transient characteristics for different formation permeabilities and anisotropy ratios. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

DE Geomechanics; CO2 EOR-Sequestration; fractured reservoir
AB Mature oil and gas reservoirs are attractive targets for geological sequestration of CO2 because of their potential storage capacities and the possible cost offsets from enhanced oil recovery (EOR).
In this work, we analyze the fracture system of the Tensleep Formation to develop a geomechanically-constrained 3D reservoir fluid flow simulation at Teapot Dome Oil Field, WY, USA. Teapot Dome is the site of a proposed CO2-EOR and sequestration pilot project. The objective of this work is to model the migration of the injected CO2 in the fracture reservoir, as well as to obtain limits on the rates and volumes of CO2 that can be injected, without compromising seal integrity. Furthermore we want to establish the framework to design injection experiments that will provide insight into the fracture network of the reservoir, in particular of fracture permeability and connectivity.
Teapot Dome is an elongated asymmetrical, basement-cored anticline with a north-northeast axis. The Tensleep Fm. in this area is highly fractured, and consists of an intercalation of eolian-dune sandstones and inter-dune deposits. The dune sandstones are permeable and porous intervals with different levels of cementation that affects their porosity, permeability, and fracture intensity. The inter-dune deposits consist of thin sabkha carbonates, minor evaporates, and thin but widespread extensive beds of very low-permeability dolomicrites. The average permeability is 30 mD, ranging from 10 - 100 mD. The average reservoir thickness is 50 ft. The caprock for the Tensleep Fm. consists of the Opeche Shale member, and the anhydrite of the Minnekhata member. The reservoir has strong aquifer drive. In the area under study, the Tensleep Fm. has its structural crest at 1675 m. It presents a 2-way closure trap against a NE-SW fault to the north and possibly the main thrust to the west.
The CO2-EOR and sequestration project will consist of the injection of 1 million cubic feet of supercritical CO2 for six weeks. A previous geomechanical analysis suggested that the trapping faults do not appear to be at risk of reactivation and it was estimated that caprock integrity is not a risk by the buoyancy pressure of the maximum CO2 column height that the formation can hold. However, in the present study we established the presence of critically stressed minor faults and fractures in the reservoir and caprock, which if reactivated, could not only enhance the permeability of the reservoir, but potentially compromise the top seal capacity. The results of the preliminary fluid flow simulations indicate that the injected CO2 will rapidly rise to the top layers, above the main producing interval, and will accumulate in the fractures, where almost none will get into the matrix.

AB We describe preliminary application of the CO2-PENS performance and risk analysis tool to a planned geologic CO2 sequestration demonstration project in the Rock Springs Uplift (RSU), located in south western Wyoming. We use data from the RSU to populate CO2-PENS, an evolving system-level modeling tool developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory. This tool has been designed to generate performance and risk assessment calculations for the geologic sequestration of carbon dioxide. Our approach follows Systems Analysis logic and includes estimates of uncertainty in model parameters and Monte-Carlo simulations that lead to probabilistic results. Probabilistic results provide decision makers with a range in the likelihood of different outcomes. Herein we present results from a newly implemented approach in CO2-PENS that captures site-specific spatially coherent details such as topography on the reservoir/cap-rock interface, changes in saturation and pressure during injection, and dip on overlying aquifers that may be impacted by leakage upward through wellbores and faults. We present simulations of CO2 injection under different uncertainty distributions for hypothetical leaking wells and faults. Although results are preliminary and to be used only for demonstration of the approach, future results of the risk analysis will form the basis for a discussion on methods to reduce uncertainty in the risk calculations. Additionally, we present ideas on using the model to help locate monitoring equipment to detect potential leaks. By maintaining site-specific details in the CO2-PENS analysis we provide a tool that allows more logical presentations to stakeholders in the region. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

DE In Salah; risk assessment; leakage risk; carbon dioxide
AB The Certification Framework (CF) is a simple risk assessment approach for evaluating CO2 and brine leakage risk at geologic carbon sequestration (GCS) sites. In the In Salah CO2 storage project assessed here, five wells at Krechba produce natural gas from the Carboniferous C10.2 reservoir with 1.7-2% CO2 that is delivered to the Krechba gas processing plant, which also receives high-CO2 natural gas (similar to 10% by mole fraction) from additional deeper gas reservoirs and fields to the south. The gas processing plant strips CO2 from the natural gas that is then injected through three long horizontal wells into the water leg of the Carboniferous gas reservoir at a depth of approximately 1,800 m. This injection process has been going on successfully since 2004. The stored CO2 has been monitored over the last five years by a Joint Industry Project (JIP) - a collaboration of BP, Sonatrach, and Statoil with co-funding from US DOE and EU DG Research. Over the years the JIP has carried out extensive analyses of the Krechba system including two risk assessment efforts, one before injection started, and one carried out by URS Corporation in September 2008. The long history of injection at Krechba, and the accompanying characterization, modeling, and performance data provide a unique opportunity to test and evaluate risk assessment approaches. We apply the CF to the In Salah CO2 storage project at two different stages in the state of knowledge of the project: (1) at the pre-injection stage, using data available just prior to injection around mid-2004; and (2) after four years of injection (September 2008) to be comparable to the other risk assessments. The main risk drivers for the project are CO2 leakage into potable groundwater and into the natural gas cap. Both well leakage and fault/fracture leakage are likely under some conditions, but overall the risk is low due to ongoing mitigation and monitoring activities. Results of the application of the CF during these different state-of-knowledge periods show that the assessment of likelihood of various leakage scenarios increased as more information became available, while assessment of impact stayed the same. Ongoing mitigation, modeling, and monitoring of the injection process is recommended. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

DE Rock Springs Uplift; CO2 storage; displaced fluid management
AB The Wyoming State Geological Survey has completed a thorough inventory and prioritization of all Wyoming stratigraphic units and geologic sites capable of sequestering commercial quantities of CO2 (5-15 Mt CO2/year). This multi-year study identified the Paleozoic Tensleep/Weber Sandstone and Madison Limestone (and stratigraphic equivalent units) as the leading clastic and carbonate reservoir candidates for commercial-scale geological CO2 sequestration in Wyoming. This conclusion was based on unit thickness, overlying low permeability lithofacies, reservoir storage and continuity properties, regional distribution patterns, formation fluid chemistry characteristics, and preliminary fluid-flow modeling. This study also identified the Rock Springs Uplift in southwestern Wyoming as the most promising geological CO2 sequestration site in Wyoming and probably in any Rocky Mountain basin.
The results of the WSGS CO2 geological sequestration inventory led the agency and colleagues at the UW School of Energy Resources Carbon Management Institute (CMI) to collect available geologic, petrophysical, geochemical, and geophysical data on the Rock Springs Uplift, and to build a regional 3-D geologic framework model of the Uplift. From the results of these tasks and using the FutureGen protocol, the WSGS showed that on the Rock Springs Uplift, the Weber Sandstone has sufficient pore space to sequester 18 billion tons (Gt) of CO2, and the Madison Limestone has sufficient pore space to sequester 8 Gt of CO2.

Risk mitigation; Area of Review; Reverse Osmosis
AB For industrial-scale CO2 injection in saline formations, pressure increase can be a limiting factor in storage capacity. To address this concern, we introduce Active CO2 Reservoir Management (ACRM), which combines brine extraction and residual-brine reinjection with CO2 injection, contrasting it with the conventional approach, which we call Passive CO2 Reservoir Management. ACRM reduces pressure buildup and CO2 and brine migration, which increases storage capacity. Also, "push-pull" manipulation of the CO2 plume can counteract buoyancy, exposing less of the caprock seal to CO2 and more of the storage formation to CO2, with a greater fraction of the formation utilized for trapping mechanisms. If the net extracted volume of brine is equal to the injected CO2 volume, pressure buildup is minimized, greatly reducing the Area of Review, and the risk of seal degradation, fault activation, and induced seismicity. Moreover, CO2 and brine migration will be unaffected by neighboring CO2 operations, which allows planning, assessing, and conducting of each operation to be carried out independently. In addition, ACRM creates a new product, as extracted brine is available as a feedstock for desalination technologies, such as Reverse Osmosis. These benefits can offset brine extraction and treatment costs, streamline permitting, and help gain public acceptance. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

ID AQUIFERS; BASIN
AB Several international researchers have in recent years evaluated the potentially far-reaching brine pressurization and migration processes resulting from the storage of large volumes of CO2 in deep saline aquifers (e. g, [1]-[6]). Predictive simulations have been conducted for idealized geologic systems as well as for large sedimentary basins with promising CO2 sequestration potential. In contrast to the latter studies, which often involve laterally extensive sediments with large storage capacity, we investigate here the potential impact of geologic carbon sequestration in a partially compartmentalized sandstone basin in the Southern San Joaquin Valley in California, USA. The expected CO2 plume behavior and injection-related pressure perturbation are modeled for a hypothetical CO2 sequestration project situated in the center of the basin. Uncertainty about fault behavior is addressed by assessing two distinctive fault property scenarios. A systematic sensitivity study is conducted for each scenario to identify key parameters and processes affecting pressure buildup and brine migration. We distinguish in this sensitivity study between the near-field region comprising the projected size of the CO2 plume, where hydrogeological properties are expected to be better constrained, and the far-field region comprising the projected extent of pressure buildup, where parameter uncertainty can be quite high.

AB Geochemical simulations indicate that co-injection of CO2 and SO2 results in mineral sequestration of SO2. The amounts sequestered are greater and more persistent in dolomite and basalt than in glauconitic sandstone. In a predominantly dolomite formation, dissolution of calcite, and to a lesser extent, dolomite, will provide Ca in solution to promote the precipitation of anhydrite, thus removing the SO2 from solution. In basalt, dissolution of basaltic glass under acidic conditions provides Ca and Fe in solution, which promotes the sequestration of SO2 as anhydrite and, eventually, pyrite. As magnetite in the formation is consumed, pyrite redissolves. In the basalt, 86% to 47% of the SO2 remains sequestered after 5000 years. In glauconitic sandstone, SO2 precipitates as alunite, but it eventually redissolves. After 5000 years, 87% to 0% of the SO2 remains sequestered in the glauconitic sandstone. In all cases, co-injection of 1% SO2 with CO2 did not appreciably reduce the amount of CO2 sequestered, and did not induce a measureable change in porosity versus injection of CO2 alone.

DE Sequestration; Partnerships; Characterization; Storage Framework; NETL
AB The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is the lead Federal agency for the development and deployment of carbon sequestration technologies. As part of its mission to facilitate technology transfer and develop guidelines from lessons learned, DOE is developing a series of best practice manuals (BPMs) for carbon capture and storage (CCS). The "Site Screening, Site Selection, and Initial Characterization for Storage of CO2 in Deep Geological Formations" BPM is a compilation of best practices and includes flowchart diagrams illustrating the general decision making process for Site Screening, Site Selection, and Initial Characterization. The BPM integrates the knowledge gained from various programmatic efforts, with particular emphasis on the Characterization Phase through pilot-scale CO2 injection testing of the Validation Phase of the Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership (RCSP) Initiative. Key geologic and surface elements that suitable candidate storage sites should possess are identified, along with example Site Screening, Site Selection, and Initial Characterization protocols for large-scale geologic storage projects located across diverse geologic and regional settings. This manual has been written as a working document, establishing a framework and methodology for proper site selection for CO2 geologic storage. This will be useful for future CO2 emitters, transporters, and storage providers. It will also be of use in informing local, regional, state, and national governmental agencies of best practices in proper sequestration site selection. Furthermore, it will educate the inquisitive general public on options and processes for geologic CO2 storage. In addition to providing best practices, the manual presents a geologic storage resource and capacity classification system. The system provides a "standard" to communicate storage and capacity estimates, uncertainty and project development risk, data guidelines and analyses for adequate site characterization, and guidelines for reporting estimates within the classification based on each project's status.

AB We present experimental results based on computed x-ray microtomography (CMT) for quantifying capillary trapping mechanisms as a function of fluid properties using several pairs of analog fluids to span a range of potential supercritical CO2-brine conditions. Our experiments are conducted in a core-flood apparatus using synthetic porous media and we investigate capillary trapping by measuring trapped non-wetting phase area as a function of varying interfacial tension, viscosity, and fluid flow rate. Experiments are repeated for a single sintered glass bead core using three different non-wetting phase fluids, and varying concentrations of surfactants, to explore and separate the effects of interfacial tension, viscosity, and fluid flow rate. Analysis of the data demonstrates distinct and consistent differences in the amount of initial (i.e. following CO2 injection) and residual (i.e. following flood or WAG scheme) non-wetting phase occupancy as a function of fluid properties and flow rate. Further experimentation and analysis is needed, but these preliminary results indicate trends that can guide design of injection scenarios such that both initial and residual trapped gas occupancy is optimized.

AB Carbonation of formation minerals converts low viscosity supercritical CO2 injected into deep saline reservoirs for geologic sequestration into an immobile form. Until recently the scientific focus of mineralization reactions with reservoir rocks has been those that follow an aqueous-mediated dissolution/precipitation mechanism, driven by the sharp reduction in pH that occurs with CO2 partitioning into the aqueous phase. For sedimentary basin formations the kinetics of aqueous-mediated dissolution/precipitation reactions are sufficiently slow to make the role of mineralization trapping insignificant over a century period. For basaltic saline formations aqueous-phase mineralization progresses at a substantially higher rate, making the role of mineralization trapping significant, if not dominant, over a century period. The overlooked mineralization reactions for both sedimentary and basaltic saline formations, however, are those that occur in liquid or supercritical CO2 phase; where, dissolved water appears to play a catalyst role in the formation of carbonate minerals. A model is proposed in this paper that describes mineral carbonation over sequestration reservoir conditions ranging from dissolved CO2 in aqueous brine to dissolved water in supercritical CO2. The model theory is based on a review of recent experiments directed at understanding the role of water in mineral carbonation reactions of interest in geologic sequestration systems occurring under low water contents.

DE Single-well test; residual CO2 saturation; geologic carbon sequestration
AB Residual trapping is one of the four trapping mechanisms that have been identified for geological CO2 storage, a means to reduce atmospheric emissions and the related impacts as a result of continued use of fossil fuels. The objective of this research is to design a single-well injection-withdrawal test to estimate residual CO2 trapping (Sgr) in brine aquifers. Due to the high cost associated with drilling to depths of potential CO2 storage site, single-well test can cost-effectively provide data sets to assess reservoir properties and reduce uncertainties in the appraisal phase for finding commercial scale storage sites. The main challenges in the design are the following: (1) It is difficult to quantify the amount that is trapped using a mass balance approach; (2) correlations among various parameters leads to a highly uncertain or non-unique Sgr estimate; and (3) the Sgr estimate could be biased due to heterogeneity of the geological medium. We have proposed our design to address each of these challenges by (1) use a detailed reservoir model to simulate the relevant physical processes in the tests; (2) perform a test sequence that yields multiple types of complementary data to constrain the estimate of Sgr; (3) remove or reduce the bias caused by the heterogeneity of the storage formation by repeating the same test under different saturation conditions. The design will be applied to a practical field test that will be carried out as part of the CO2CRC Otway Project, at Victoria Australia.

AB LUCI, the Laboratory for Underground CO2 Investigations, is an experimental facility being planned for the DUSEL underground laboratory in South Dakota, USA. It is designed to study vertical flow of CO2 in porous media over length scales representative of leakage scenarios in geologic carbon sequestration. The plan for LUCI is a set of three vertical column pressure vessels, each of which is similar to 500 m long and similar to 1 m in diameter. The vessels will be filled with brine and sand or sedimentary rock. Each vessel will have an inner column to simulate a well for deployment of down-hole logging tools. The experiments are configured to simulate CO2 leakage by releasing CO2 into the bottoms of the columns. The scale of the LUCI facility will permit measurements to study CO2 flow over pressure and temperature variations that span supercritical to subcritical gas conditions. It will enable observation or inference of a variety of relevant processes such as buoyancy-driven flow in porous media, Joule-Thomson cooling, thermal exchange, viscous fingering, residual trapping, and CO2 dissolution. Experiments are also planned for reactive flow of CO2 and acidified brines in caprock sediments and well cements, and for CO2-enhanced methanogenesis in organic-rich shales. A comprehensive suite of geophysical logging instruments will be deployed to monitor experimental conditions as well as provide data to quantify vertical resolution of sensor technologies. The experimental observations from LUCI will generate fundamental new understanding of the processes governing CO2 trapping and vertical migration, and will provide valuable data to calibrate and validate large-scale model simulations.

AB Carbon dioxide (CO2) injected into a permeable rock stratum will be stored via four major mechanisms, 1) bulk containment of the mobile supercritical phase CO2, 2) small-scale trapping by capillary forces, 3) dissolution into the local brine, and 4) chemical reactions with aqueous species and host rock resulting in mineral precipitation. The security and permanence of CO2 storage increases along this pathway from containment to mineralization. After injection into the subsurface, the less-dense free-phase CO2 will tend to rise to the top of the permeable formation and will accumulate beneath a confining layer (cap rock) as a result of buoyancy. Beneath the confining layer, the CO2 will spread out, governed by capillary, buoyant, and viscous forces, forming a relatively horizontal layer at some distance from the injection location. CO2 in contact with local fluids will begin to dissolve into the fluids. The dissolution of CO2 into the brine will result in increasing the brine density. Brine with increased density over less dense brine will result in a fluid dynamics instability such that the heavier brine containing CO2 will tend to flow downward. This will cause lighter brine without dissolved CO2 to move upward, contacting the CO2 plume, dissolving more CO2, and then convecting downward. This dissolution-induced density-driven convection is a desirable process because it can significantly enhance the CO2 dissolution rates, thereby increasing storage security. We have performed laboratory visualization studies in transparent cells and quantitative CO2 absorption tests at elevated pressure to investigate this phenomenon. Numerical modeling of the tests was performed with results comparing favorably with experimental results. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB It is important to determine the geochemical reactions between common cements used in wellbore construction, formation mineralogy, and supercritical CO2 stored in deep saline reservoirs, because abandoned and completed wells provide a pathway for release of the stored CO2 back to overlying aquifers and to the atmosphere. Although it is known that alkaline cements readily react with acidic CO2-rich waters, the influence of the formation and cement mineralogy on the bonding of the wellbore cement to the caprock at pressure and temperature conditions associated with saline CO2 storage reservoirs is uncertain.
We reacted end member components of the heterolithic sandstone and shale unit that forms the upper section of the carbon storage reservoir at the Krechba Field, In Salah, Algeria with supercritical CO2 and class G cement in a representative brine at 95 degrees C and 10 MPa in gold bag autoclaves to identify geochemical reactions that occur in the wellbore environment. The experimental system allows reaction progress of complex geochemical environments to be tracked by sampling the aqueous phase periodically over the two-month long experiments.
Analysis of the solution chemistry over time and the solid products show that the wellbore environment is dominated by reactions between cement, carbonate, and clay minerals when exposed to CO2-rich fluid. Reaction of the hydrated cement with synthetic brine equilibrated with supercritical CO2 rapidly forms amorphous silica, calcite, and aragonite. Similar reaction products were observed when cement reacted with sandstone and CO2 (reservoir). However in the vicinity of the shale (caprock) cement minerals altered to calcium carbonate minerals and smectite (clay). (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

ID DISSOLUTION
AB A reactive transport modeling approach was used to assess key geochemical reactions between wellbore cement, formation mineralogy, and injected supercritical CO2 at the Krechba natural gas field at In Salah, Algeria. Characterization of these reactions is important for understanding changes in porosity and permeability and the propagation or sealing of fractures in the formation or wellbore cement. Experiments involving the reaction of CO2 with reservoir mineral assemblages and wellbore cement under in situ conditions, combined with geochemical modeling, were used to identify candidate reactive mineral phases and reaction rates specifically applicable to CO2 injection at In Salah. These findings informed a reactive transport model which considered advective transport of CO2 along the wellbore-formation interface and diffusive transport of CO2 and brine constituents into juxtaposed wellbore cement. Model results indicate shallow carbonation of the cement along the interface, leading to changes in cement porosity. Diffusive transport of cations such as Ca, Fe, and Al between the cement and formation materials results in mineralogical changes in the formation material immediately adjacent to the cement, including localized dissolution of calcite and precipitation of siderite, magnesite, gibbsite, smectite, and amorphous silica. In contrast to the cement, the modeled porosity changes in the formation material appear to be minor. Taken together, these results suggest (1) significant retardation of the rate of advance of CO2 along the interface, and (2) relatively minor impacts to permeability.

AB Acid gas (mixed CO2 and H2S) injection into geological formations is increasingly used as a disposal option. For example, more than 40 acid gas injection projects are currently operating in Alberta, Canada [1]. In contrast to pure CO2 injection, there is little understanding of the possible effects of acid gases under geological sequestration conditions on exposed materials ranging from reactions with reservoir minerals to the stability of proppants injected to improve oil recovery to the possible failure of wellbore cements. The number of laboratory studies investigating effects of acid gas has been limited by safety concerns and the difficulty in preparing and maintaining single-phase H2S/CO2 mixtures under the experimental pressures and temperatures required.
In an effort to address the lack of experimental data addressing the potential effects of acid gas injection, the Plains CO2 Reduction Partnership (PCOR) in the United States has developed approaches using conventional syringe pumps (ISCO 260D pumps) and reactor vessels (Parr Instruments) to prepare and maintain H2S/CO2 mixtures under relevant sequestration conditions of temperature, pressure, and exposure to water and dissolved salts. Exposures up to several months can be conducted at temperatures and pressures up to 350 degrees C and 414 bar (6000 psi) using any desired H2S/CO2 mole ratio. Up to 16 individual samples racked in separate glass vials can be exposed at one time, and the use of separate glass vessels allows different salt brine concentrations to be evaluated.
In addition to performing static exposure experiments, the pumps and vessels are sufficiently leak-free that reaction rates can be determined by monitoring mass flow at the pumps. Interestingly, this is much easier to perform for reactions with H2S than with CO2, because H2S is much less compressible and has lower Joule-Thompson heating/cooling effects than CO2. Thus, obtaining accurate values for the mass of CO2 used during an experiment based on pump volume is much more difficult than for H2S, although controlling the pump cylinder temperature with a water jacket allows reasonable measurements to be made. These systems have been used to determine reaction rates of model systems, such as the formation of magnesium carbonate from magnesium silicate and the formation of pyrite from iron oxide (Fe3O4). For example, the use of H2S (as measured at the pump) was steady at ca. 0.5 grams per day (for 18.6 grams of Fe3O4) until the reaction was complete. The half-life of the reaction was 20 days, and the mass balance (0.54 moles H2S actual compared to 0.48 moles theoretical) was reasonable. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

DE Geologic carbon sequestration; Caprock integrity; Brine leakage;
Carbonate caprock
AB In geologic carbon sequestration, caprock fractures may act as leakage pathways, threatening the long term sealing ability of the formation. A flow-through experiment was performed to investigate fracture evolution of a fractured carbonate caprock during simulated leakage of CO2-acidified brine. The initial brine composition represented that of a CO2-saturated brine having previously reacted with the injection formation minerals resulting in a starting pH of 4.9. Experimental temperature and pressure conditions were 40 degrees C and 10 MPa, corresponding to injection at a depth of 1 km. A combination of X-ray computed tomography and scanning electron microscopy was used to observe fracture evolution and investigate the mineralogical changes that occurred along the fracture wall. After one week of brine flow, the cross-sectional fracture area increased by an average of 2.7 times that of the initial fracture. The fracture surface was not eroded uniformly, with the largest areas of aperture growth corresponding to direct contact between the acidified brine and calcite. This preferential dissolution of calcite led to a large increase in fracture surface roughness and in some instances, created a silicate mineral-rich microporous coating along the fracture wall. Results from this study suggest that the clay content of low permeability carbonate formations may be an important factor in controlling their long term integrity while in contact with acidified brine and should be considered when selecting appropriate injection sites for geologic CO2 sequestration.

AB The long term fate of wells proximal to CO2 sequestration operations remains poorly understood. To date, experiments have shown that total degradation of well cement is unlikely [1] and that severe, uniform degradation of a conductive pathway can lead to self-healing of a fracture [2]. However these experiments did not carry out the degradation reactions while the (fractured) cement was under mechanical load comparable to subsurface conditions. A new experiment procedure that couples reactive flow through a fracture in cement with confining pressure has shown reaction along well defined flow channels along the fracture face. Injection of acidic (2 < pH < 3) aqueous solutions yielded effluent pH histories with a characteristic spike of rapid neutralization followed by a slow approach toward inlet pH. In all experiments, the effective hydraulic aperture after acid injection was smaller than the initial hydraulic aperture. This indicates that in a system with a slow leak of brine saturated with CO2 along a defect in a wellbore, the leakage rate would decrease over time. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

DE CO2; flood basalts; carbon sequestration
ID WASHINGTON; OREGON; FLOWS
AB Mafic continental flood basalts form a globally important, but under-characterized CO2 sequestration target. The Columbia River Basalt Group (CRBG) in the northwestern U. S. is up to 5 km thick and covers over 168,000 km(2). In India, flood basalts are 3 km thick and cover greater than 500,000 km(2). Laboratory experiments demonstrate that the CRBG and other basalts react with formation water and super critical (sc) CO2 to precipitate carbonates, thus adding a potential mineral trapping mechanism to the standard trapping mechanisms of most other types of CO2 sequestration reservoirs.
Brecciated tops of individual basalt flows in the CRBG form regional aquifers that locally have greater than 30% porosity and three Darcies of permeability. Porous flow tops are potential sites for sequestration of gigatons of scCO(2) in areas where the basalts contain unpotable water and are at depths greater than 800 m. In this paper we report on the U. S. DOE Big Sky Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership surface seismic and borehole geophysical characterization that supports a field test of capacity, integrity, and geochemical reactivity of CRBG reservoirs in eastern Washington, U.S.A.
Traditional surface seismic methods have had little success in imaging basalt features in on-shore areas where the basalt is thinly covered by sediment. Processing of the experimental 6.5 km, 5 line 3C seismic swath included constructing an elastic wavefield model, identifying and separating seismic wave modes, and processing the swath as a single 2D line. Important findings include: 1) a wide variety of shear wave energy modes swamp the P-wave seismic records; 2) except at very short geophone offsets, ground roll overprints P-wave signal; and 3) because of extreme velocity contrasts, P-wave events are refracted at incidence angles greater than 7-15 degrees. Subsequent removal of S-wave and other noise during processing resulted in tremendous improvement in image quality.
The application of wireline logging to onshore basalts is underexploited. Full waveform sonic logs and resistivity-based image logs acquired in the 1250 m basalt pilot borehole provide powerful tools for evaluating geomechanics and lithofacies. The azimuth of the fast shear wave is parallel to S-H and records the changes through geologic time in basalt flow and tectonic stress tensors. Combined with image log data, azimuthal S-wave data provide a borehole technique for assessing basalt emplacement and cooling history that is related to the development of reservoirs and seals, as well as the orientation of tectonic stresses and fracture systems that could affect CO2 transport or containment. Reservoir and seal properties are controlled by basalt lithofacies, and rescaled P- and S-wave slowness curves, integrated with image logs, provide a tool for improved recognition of subsurface lithofacies.

AB Consistent with other published studies, the modelling presented here reveals that baseload power plants are the first aspects of the electricity sector to decarbonize and are essentially decarbonized once CO2 permit prices exceed a certain threshold ($90/tonCO(2) in this study). The decarbonization of baseload electricity is met by significant expansions of nuclear power and renewable energy generation technologies as well as the application of carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) technologies applied to both coal and natural gas fired power plants. Relatively little attention has been paid thus far to whether intermediate and peaking units would respond the same way to a climate policy given the very different operational and economic context that these kinds of electricity generation units operate under. In this paper, the authors discuss key aspects of the load segmentation methodology used to imbed a varying electricity demand within the GCAM (a state-of-the-art Integrated Assessment Model) energy and economic modelling framework and present key results on the role CCS technologies could play in decarbonizng subpeak and peak generation (encompassing only the top 10% of the load) and under what conditions. To do this, the authors have modelled two hypothetical climate policies that require 50% and 80% reductions in US emissions from business as usual by the middle of this century. Intermediate electricity generation is virtually decarbonized once carbon prices exceed approximately $150/tonCO(2). When CO2 permit prices exceed $160/tonCO(2), natural gas power plants with CCS have roughly the same marketshare as conventional gas plants in serving subpeak loads. The penetration of CCS into peak load (upper 6% here) is minimal under the scenarios modeled here suggesting that CO2 emissions from this aspect of the U.S. electricity sector would persist well into the future even with stringent CO2 emission control policies in place.

We have compared the various approaches that United States' state and federal governments have taken to provide regulatory frameworks to address carbon sequestration. A major purpose of our work is to inform the development of any future legislation in California, should it be deemed necessary to meet the goals of Assembly Bill 1925 (2006) to accelerate the adoption of cost-effective geologic sequestration strategies for the long-term management of industrial carbon dioxide in the state.
Our analysis shows that diverse issues are covered by adopted and proposed carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) legislation and that many of the new laws focus on defining regulatory frameworks for underground injection of CO2, ambiguities in property issues, or assigning legal liability. While these approaches may enable the progress of early projects, future legislation requires a longer term and broader view that includes a quantified integration of CCS into a government's overall climate change mitigation strategy while considering potentially counterproductive impacts on CCS of other climate change mitigation strategies. Furthermore, legislation should be crafted in the context of a vision for CCS as an economically viable and widespread industry.
In California, CCS is not included quantitatively as a strategy to reduce future greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In part, this reflects the focus of most state agencies on short term goals, such as the AB 32 goal to return California emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. It also reflects the lack of data necessary to predict how rapidly and to what degree CCS could be deployed to meet short or long term goals. The lack of timely consideration of CCS as a mitigation alternative, however, has the potential to lead, albeit unintentionally, to policies which may make CCS adoption less likely and more expensive in the long run. For example, consideration of the economic and other risks associated with CCS is presently a disincentive to adopt CCS if other alternatives, such as fuel switching, can meet legislated requirements to reduce carbon emissions.
While an important function of new CCS legislation is enabling early projects, it must be kept in mind that applying the same laws or protocols in the future to a widespread CCS industry may result in business disincentives and compromise of the public interest in mitigating GHG emissions, particularly in cases where different stakeholders are responsible for capture, transport, and sequestration elements of a project. Protection of the public interest requires that monitoring and verification track the long term fate of pipelined CO2 regardless of its end use in order to establish that climate change goals are being met. Legislative mandates that require CO2 producers to verify carbon reductions via sequestration, and which are crafted under the assumption that CO2 capture, transport and storage is linear and maintained under a single stewardship, may result in reducing the incentive to participate in the efficiencies of a collective transport and sequestration system.

AB The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) Fifth Assessment (to be published in 20132014) will to a significant degree be built around four Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) that are intended to represent four scenarios of future development of greenhouse gas emissions, land use, and concentrations that span the widest range of potential future atmospheric radiative forcing. Under the very stringent climate policy implied by the 2.6 W/m(2) overshoot scenario, all electricity is eventually generated from low carbon sources. However, carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) technologies never comprise more than 50% of total electricity generation in that very stringent scenario or in any of the other cases examined here. There are significant differences among the cases studied here in terms of how CCS technologies are used, with the most prominent being is the significant expansion of biomass+CCS as the stringency of the implied climate policy increases. Cumulative CO2 storage across the three cases that imply binding greenhouse gas constraints ranges by nearly an order of magnitude from 170GtCO(2) (radiative forcing of 6.0W/m(2) in 2100) to 1600GtCO(2) (2.6W/m(2) in 2100) over the course of this century. This potential demand for deep geologic CO2 storage is well within published estimates of total global CO2 storage capacity. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB CCS technology is particularly important to China due to its large and rapidly rising emissions and high dependence on fossil fuel. There is a huge basin scale theoretical CO2 storage capacity in China; however the CCS deployments will consider firstly those matched source-sink pairs with early opportunities at present. This paper presents the key results of evaluation of early opportunities for the deployment of CCS technologies within China. The proximity analysis suggests that there also are many early opportunities for CCS deployment, such as the promising EOR/EGR opportunities from using high concentration CO2 sources. The combined benefits of short distance between sources and sinks, the potential hydrocarbon revenues and low CO2 capture cost make these pairs as promising near-term CCS candidates. These near-term CCS candidates can be deployed at very low cost or even with some revenue. In this paper, several sources-sink pairs in China are analyzed in details, such as, the pairs of high purity CO2 emission sources and aquifer, co-storage of waste gas stream and depleted gas fields, IGCC and aquifer. These early opportunities will provide China the chance to develop and spread CCS technologies steadily from early stage to commercial stage. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB FutureGen, as originally planned, was to be the world's first coal-fueled, near-zero emissions power plant with fully integrated, 90% carbon capture and storage (CCS). From conception through siting and design, it enjoyed strong support from multiple stakeholder groups, which benefited the overall project. Understanding the stakeholder engagement process for this project provides valuable insights into the design of stakeholder programs for future CCS projects. FutureGen is one of few projects worldwide that used open competition for siting both the power plant and storage reservoir. Most site proposals were coordinated by State governments. It was unique in this and other respects relative to the site selection method used on other DOE-supported projects. At the time of site selection, FutureGen was the largest proposed facility designed to combine an integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) coal-fueled power plant with a CCS system. Stakeholder engagement by states and the industry consortium responsible for siting, designing, building, and operating the facility took place simultaneously and on parallel tracks. On one track were states spearheading state-wide site assessments to identify candidate sites that they wanted to propose for consideration. On the other track was a public-private partnership between an industry consortium of thirteen coal companies and electric utilities that comprised the FutureGen Alliance (Alliance) and the U. S. Department of Energy (DOE). The partnership was based on a cooperative agreement signed by both parties, which assigned the lead for siting to the Alliance. This paper describes the stakeholder engagement strategies used on both of these tracks and provides examples from the engagement process using the Illinois semi-finalist sites.

AB High-brightness x-ray sources, such as next-generation synchrotrons and free-electron lasers (FELs), pose unique challenges for the development of x-ray optics. The peak intensities of FEL pulses can be high enough to convert any material placed in a focused beam into plasma. X-ray optics, which are used close to the focal spot, are likely to be partially or completely damaged in a single shot. Such optics would need to be replenished after each shot. Optics that are used in the unfocused or indirect beam may survive much longer, perhaps indefinitely, if care is used to limit the energy absorbed in the optics. Here we present different types of multilayer-based optics, which were used successfully in FEL experiments for reflecting, focusing, and filtering high-intensity, pulsed x-rays in a variety of novel science applications.

AB The new NSLS-II deposition laboratory has been commissioned to include a variety of thin-film characterization equipment and a next-generation deposition system [1]. The primary goal for this effort is R&D on the multilayer Laue lens (MLL) [2-4], which is a new type of x-ray optic with the potential for an unprecedented level of x-ray nano-focusing. This unique deposition system contains many design features in order to facilitate growth of combined depth-graded and laterally graded multilayers with precise thickness control over many thousands of layers, providing total film growth in one run of up to 100 mu m thick or greater. A precision in-vacuum linear motor servo system raster scans a substrate over an array of magnetrons with shaped apertures at well-defined velocities to affect a multilayer coating. The design, commissioning, and performance metrics of the NSLS-II deposition system will be discussed. Latest growth results of both MLL and reflective multilayers in this machine will be presented.

AB Studies of materials on mesoscopic length-scales require a penetrating structural probe with submicron point-to-point spatial resolution. The principle research activities at beamline 34-ID-E of the Advanced Photon Source (APS) involve development of exciting new micro-/nano-diffraction techniques for characterization and microscopy in support of both applied engineering and fundamental materials research. Taking advantage of the high brightness of the source, advanced focusing mirrors, a novel depth profiling technique, and high-speed area detectors, three-dimensional scanning Laue diffraction microscopy provides detailed local structural information of crystalline materials, such as crystallographic orientation, orientation gradients, and strain tensors. It is general and applicable to single-crystal, polycrystalline, composite, deformed, and functionally graded materials. Applications include 3D diffraction investigations for a diverse and growing user community with interests in materials deformation, electro-migration, recrystallization, fatigue, solid-solution precipitation, high-pressure environments, and condensed matter physics.

AB While hard x-ray zone plates have made great advances recently towards improved resolution, their focusing efficiency requires further development. This problem becomes more important as higher-energy x-rays are used for x-ray microscopy. The current method for fabricating zone plates involves a dielectric mold, which is then electroplated into, but the materials used for this mold are not mechanically stiff enough for the zone plates desired. Ultrananocrystalline diamond (UNCD) is a form of diamond that can be grown as a thin film by chemical vapor deposition and offers many of the physical properties of bulk diamond. Its mechanical stiffness, resistance to radiation damage, dielectric properties, and ability to be etched suggests UNCD as a capable mold material. Reported is progress in the fabrication of hard x-ray zone plates with gold electroformed into a UNCD mold.

AB Most full-field microscopes at synchrotrons exhibit a highly peaked illumination in the center of the field of view for stationary condenser and objective optics. This illumination pattern is typically reference-corrected by division with an image without the sample to correct for the uneven illumination. However, this correction does not rectify problems such as the poor signal-to-noise ratio away from the center and the variation in image quality across the field of view due to the unbalanced illumination. These non-uniformity issues affect imaging strategies that stitch several fields of view together as is needed for large samples. We present the implementation of a condenser scanner that time-averages the illumination on the sample, leading to vastly improved image uniformity and the avoidance of image artifacts.

In this paper we present the design and development of an advanced sample-scanning stage system prototype for an MLL-based hard x-ray nanoprobe. The design and prototyping activities for the Brookhaven NSLS-II nanopositioning system will also benefit the ongoing development of the Argonne CNM/APS MLL-based hard x-ray nanoprobe with hard x-ray focusing in the nanometer scale.

AB The hard x-ray nanoprobe (HXN) beamline of the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) requires high levels of stability in order to achieve the desired instrument resolution. To ensure that the design of the endstation helps meet the stringent criteria and that natural and cultural vibration is mitigated both passively and actively, a comprehensive study complimentary to the design process has been undertaken. Vibration sources that have the potential to disrupt sensitive experiments such as wind, traffic, and NSLS II operating systems have been studied using state-of-the-art simulations and an array of field data. Further, final stage vibration isolation principles have been explored.

AB We have modified scanning transmission x-ray microscopes (STXM) at the Canadian Light Source and the Advanced Light Source with total electron yield (TEY) detection (TEY-STXM). This provides improved surface-sensitive detection, simultaneous with existing bulk-sensitive transmission detection in the STXM microscopes. We have explored sample-current and channeltron-based electron yield detection. Both approaches provide improved surface sensitive imaging and spectroscopy, although channeltron-based detection is superior. TEY-STXM provides surface sensitive imaging of ultrathin films such as phase-separated Langmuir-Blodgett monolayer films, as well as differentiation of surface and bulk oxides of patterned metallic thin films. This paper will outline the experimental challenges of this method and the opportunities for correlative surface and bulk measurements of complex samples.

AB A hard x-ray micro-nanoprobe has commenced operation at the Australian Synchrotron providing versatile x-ray fluorescence microscopy across an incident energy range from 4 to 25 keV. Two x-ray probes are used to collect mu-XRF and mu-XANES for elemental and chemical microanalysis: a Kirkpatrick-Baez mirror microprobe for micron resolution studies and a Fresnel zone plate nanoprobe capable of 60-nm resolution. Some unique aspects of the beamline design and operation are discussed. An advanced energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence detection scheme named Maia has been developed for the beamline, which enables ultrafast x-ray fluorescence microscopy.

Nanofocused Bragg CXDI uses hard x-rays focused to <100 nm to measure volumetric diffraction peaks with curved phase illumination. Here, we discuss the experimental challenges associated with this measurement and present the first coherent Bragg volumes measured from an individual beta-Bi2O3 epitaxial nanocrystal.

AB The use of inline insertion devices at third-generation synchrotron radiation sources can result in destructive interference effects if the relative phase between the devices is not properly adjusted. The destructive interference can strongly affect the emission spectrum and coherent wavefront of a compound insertion device. We simulate the photon source generated by a dual-inline elliptically polarizing undulator (EPU) situated in a low-beta straight section of the planned NSLS-II storage ring and show that a magnetic chicane with adjustable field integral can be used to phase-match the devices. Furthermore, we show that the maximum coherent intensity is delivered by a focusing x-ray beamline if the chicane is adjusted to phase-match the off-axis and red-shifted radiation. Such a system will be installed at the coherent soft x-ray (CSX) beamline of the NSLS-II in order to provide the highest possible coherent flux for coherent soft x-ray scattering experiments.

ID MICROSCOPY
AB Coherent x-ray diffractive imaging (CXDI) is a microscopy technique that numerically inverts measured diffraction intensities to arrive at the complex index of refraction of the specimen under investigation. We explore here the performance of scanning CXDI using the Difference Map algorithm when using diffraction with degraded signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and diffraction with missing regions, due to, for example, a beam stop. We quantify reconstruction quality as a function of SNR using the concept of the phase retrieval transfer function which seeks to identify a cutoff spatial resolution up to which we can trust spatial features in the image. We also explore reconstruction degradation as a function of missing data region size.

The production of Portland cement is responsible for 7% of the CO2 emissions in the world and existing reinforced concrete infrastructure is deteriorating at a fast pace. The change in the existing technology requires new developments in our understanding of the nanostructure of hydration products and the complex deterioration reactions. We have been developing an elaborate research program to advance the existing cement and concrete science by characterizing its nanostructure by synchrotron radiation. A new generation of green cements is being studied using high-resolution soft x-ray microscopy at the nano-level.

ID EDGE XANES SPECTROSCOPY
AB A combination of x-ray microscopy, elemental mapping, and XANES spectroscopy at the K-absorption edge of sulfur was used to analyze the elemental and particulate composition of an urban soil loaded with building rubble from WWII, exemplarily from Berlin, Germany. This combination of element specific high-resolution microscopy with high spectral resolution capabilities allows for the determination of elemental composition as well as chemical speciation and is therefore well suited for the analysis of highly heterogeneous environmental samples. Different soil and debris constituents could be assigned to elemental distribution patterns within collected fluorescence maps, allowing for a detailed analysis of the sulfur pool and release from war debris in subsequent studies. A detailed understanding of this sulfur lixiviation is central to preserve urban water quality.

ID TRANSPORT; SPECTROMICROSCOPY; CONTAMINANTS
AB A prominent feature of soil colloids is their huge specific surface. It determines colloidal properties such as adsorption capacity or diffusion. The colloidal interactions differ significantly from the behavior of the same materials in a bulk system. Interactions in the colloidal regime are crucial, for example, for the transport and release of nutrients and toxicants in soils, which then influences directly the growth of plants. However, there is still a need for more analytical resources to study those interactions. To reveal the correlation of the particular trace elements and their distribution in correlation to colloidal interactions as well as changing pH values, experiments at the hard x-ray fluorescence microprobe at beamline 2-ID-E of the Advanced Photon Source (APS), were performed with colloidal clay and soil samples in an aqueous environment as naturally relevant. To obtain further spatial information, stereo imaging has been used. To study the dynamical behavior of these colloidal suspensions at changing pH, a wet sample chamber allowing in situ manipulation was developed and utilized.

AB The aim of this study is the comparison of samples at dry and aqueous ambient conditions. Especially in biological and environmental sciences, x-ray spectromicroscopy is a powerful tool for investigating key questions, e. g., the study of structures in soil samples or cells showing dimensions on the nanoscale, concurrently gaining insight into chemical interactions. The spectral range around the C K-edge, in the so-called water window (285 eV - 523 eV), is especially well suited for the samples mentioned above, since it allows for working under aqueous and natural conditions. Exemplarily we present x-ray spectromicroscopy experiments of three different samples of high carbon content to demonstrate the importance of a sample environment as close to natural conditions as possible.

AB A multimodal nanocomposite was designed, synthesized with super-paramagnetic core (CoFe2O4), noble metal corona (Au), and semiconductor shell (TiO2). The sizes of core, core-corona, and core-corona-shell particles were determined by TEM. This multimodal nanocrystal showed promise as a contrast agent for two of the most widely used biomedical imaging techniques: magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and x-ray computed tomography (CT). Finally, these nanocomposites were coated with a peptide SN-50. This led to their ready uptake by the cultured cells and targeted the nanocomposites to the pores of nuclear membrane. Inside cells, this nanocomposite retained its integrity as shown by x-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM). Inside cells imaged by XFM we found the complex elemental signature of nanoconjugates (Ti-Co-Fe-Au) always co-registered in the 2D elemental map of the cell.

In verifying that metal ion dynamics are not artifactual, particularly where some samples have been chemically fixed, a comparison of our past results with samples studied with cryofixation and immunofluorescence add validation to our previous findings. Our work demonstrating cryofixation in human microvascular endothelial cells and metallothionein immunofluorescence in stem cells is presented.

ID EPIDERMAL GROWTH-FACTOR; NUCLEAR-LOCALIZATION; RECEPTOR
AB We are developing TiO2 nanoconjugates that can be used as therapeutic and diagnostic agents. Nanoscale TiO2 can be surface conjugated with various molecules and has the unique ability to induce the production of reactive oxygen species after radiation activation. One way to improve the potential clinical usefulness of TiO2 nanoparticles is to control their delivery to malignant cells by targeting them to cancer-cell-specific antigens. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is one potential target that is enriched in epithelial cancers and is rapidly internalized after ligand binding. Hence, we have synthesized TiO2 nanoparticles and functionalized them with a short EGFR-binding peptide to create EGFR-targeted NCs. X-ray fluorescence microscopy was used to image nanoconjugates within EGFR-positive HeLa cells. Further labeling of fixed cells with antibodies against EGFR and Protein A nanogold showed that TiO2 nanoconjugates can colocalize with receptors at the cell's plasma membrane. Interestingly, with increased incubation times, EGFR-targeted nanoconjugates could also be found colocalized with EGFR within the cell nucleus. This suggests that EGFR-targeted nanoconjugates can bind the receptor at the cell membrane, which leads to the internalization of NC-receptor complexes and the subsequent transport of nanoconjugates into the nucleus.

The divergence of the illumination allows for very high magnification, limited only by the achievable ratio of the crystal-to-sample and sample-to-detector distances. In this case an x-ray magnification of approximately 115 was achieved.

ID F-18(P,ALPHA)O-15 REACTION
AB The Argonne Tandem Linear Accelerator System (ATLAS) at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) provides a wide range of stable ion beams and radioactive beams which have contributed to our understanding of nuclear structure and reactions. Until now, most radioactive ion beams at ATLAS were produced in flight using light-ion reactions such as, (p, n), (d, n),(d, p), (d, He-3), and (He-3, n). Within the next few months, the radioactive ion beam program at ATLAS will acquire much extended, new capabilities with the commissioning of a new facility: the CAlifornium Rare Isotope Breeder Upgrade (CARIBU). CARIBU will supply ion beams of Cf-252 fission fragments, which are thermalized in a gas catcher. The singly- and doubly-charged ions extracted from the gas catcher will be mass-separated and either delivered to a low-energy experimental area, or charge bred with a modified ECR source and subsequently reaccelerated by the ATLAS facility. Properties of hundreds of these neutron-rich nuclides will be investigated using ion traps, decay stations, the newly commissioned HELical Orbit Spectrometer (HELIOS), and other available experimental equipment such as Gammasphere and the FMA. HELIOS was constructed to take advantage of rare ion beams, such as those provided by CARIBU, through light-ion transfer reactions in inverse kinematics, and represents a new approach to the study of direct reactions in inverse kinematics which avoids kinematic broadening. Experiments are currently being conducted with HELIOS, and first results with the d(Si-28,p) and d(B-12,p) reactions have shown excellent energy resolution.

DE speaker diarization; overlap detection
AB We present our ongoing work in addressing the issue of overlapped speech in speaker diarization through the use of overlap segmentation, overlapped speech exclusion, and overlap segment labeling. Using feature analysis, we identify the most salient features from a candidate list including those from our previous system and a set of newly proposed features. In addition, through independent optimization of overlap exclusion and labeling, we obtain a relative diarization error rate improvement of 15.1% on a sampled subset of the AMI Meeting Corpus, more than double our previous result. When analyzed independently, we show that the performance improvement due to overlapped speech exclusion now rivals that of an oracle system using reference overlap segments.

AB A covariant spectator quark model is applied to estimate the valence quark contributions to the F-1(*) (Q(2)) and F-2(*) (Q(2)) transition form factors for the gamma N -> P-11(1440) reaction. The Roper resonance, P-11(1440), is assumed to be the first radial excitation of the nucleon. The model requires no extra parameters except for those already fixed by the previous studies for the nucleon. The results are consistent with the experimental data in the high Q(2) region, and those from the lattice QCD. Finally the model is also applied to estimate the meson cloud contributions from the CLAS and MAID analysis.

DE alloy 690; PWSCC; CRDM; plate; cold rolling; crack growth rate
AB Stress corrosion crack-growth experiments have been performed on cold-rolled alloy 690 materials in simulated PWR primary water at 360 degrees C. Extruded alloy 690 CRDM tubing in two conditions, thermally treated (TT) and solution annealed (SA), was cold rolled (CR) in one direction to several reductions reaching a maximum of 31% and tested in the S-L orientation. High stress corrosion cracking (SCC) propagation rates (similar to 8x10(-8) mm/s) were observed for the 31% CR alloy 690TT material, while the 31% CR alloy 690SA exhibited 10X lower rates. The difference in intergranular SCC susceptibility appears to be related to grain boundary carbide distribution before cold rolling. SCC growth rates were found to depend on test temperature and hydrogen concentration. Tests were also performed on two alloy 690 plate heats, one CR to a reduction of 26% and the other to 20%. SCC growth rates at 360 degrees C were similar to that measured for the 31% CR alloy 690TT CRDM tubing. Comparisons will be made to other results on CR alloy 690 materials.

DE Stress Corrosion Cracking; Alloy 690 HAZ
AB The objective of this work is to determine the cyclic and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) crack growth rates (CGRs) in a simulated PWR water environment for Alloy 690 heat affected zone (HAZ). In order to meet the objective, an Alloy 152 J-weld was produced on a piece of Alloy 690 tubing, and the test specimens were aligned with the HAZ. The environmental enhancement of cyclic CGRs for Alloy 690 HAZ was comparable to that measured for the same alloy in the as-received condition. The two Alloy 690 HAZ samples tested exhibited maximum SCC CGR rates of 10(-11) m/s in the simulated PWR environment at 320 degrees C, however, on average, these rates are similar or only slightly higher than those for the as-received alloy.

DE Stress Corrosion Cracking; Alloy 152 weld
AB The objective of this work is to determine the crack growth rates (CGRs) in a simulated PWR water environment for Alloy 152. In order to meet the objective, specimens made from a laboratory-prepared Alloy 152 double-J weld in the as-welded condition were tested. For the SCC CGR measurements, the specimens were pre-cracked under cyclic loading in a primary water environment, and the cyclic CGRs were monitored to determine the transition from the fatigue transgranular fracture mode to the intergranular SCC fracture mode. The environmental enhancement of cyclic CGRs for Alloy 152 was minimal; nevertheless, the transition from transgranular to intergranular cracking was successful. Weld samples tested from the single heat of Alloy 152 exhibited SCC CGR rates of 10(-11) m/s in the simulated PWR environment at 320 degrees C, which was about an order of magnitude lower than typical for Alloy 182.

DE alloy 52M; PWSCC; crack growth rate
AB Crack-growth experiments have been performed on five different alloy 52M welds in simulated PWR primary water at 350 degrees C or 360 degrees C. The alloy 52M test matrix included V-groove and narrow-gap welds, an overlay on alloy 182, and an inlay on alloy 82. For the overlay and inlay materials, crack growth rates are reported only on the alloy 52M weld well beyond the dilution zone. In one of the narrow gap welds, the crack path was oriented to pass through a distribution of pre-existing weld cracks and their influence on stress-corrosion behavior is evaluated. Intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) is observed in several alloy 52M welds, however propagation rates remain below 5x10(-9) mm/s in all cases. Comparisons will be made to our previous SCC measurements on alloy 152 and 52 welds.

DE Stress Corrosion Cracking; Alloy 52M; Weld overlay
AB The objective of this work is to investigate the behavior of a crack initiated in Alloy 182 as it approaches the Alloy 52M WOL interface. For this purpose, an Alloy 52M WOL was deposited on a double-J Alloy 182 weld. Compact tension specimens were fabricated with the notch in Alloy 182 and oriented towards the WOL, and tested in a simulated PWR environment. The first such test revealed that the SCC rates in Alloy 182 were found to decrease by an order of magnitude ahead of the interface, and that the crack advanced from Alloy 182 into Alloy 52M. The post test examination found that crack branching occurred at the interface between the two alloys. Growth in Alloy 52M along the interface appears severe, approx. 10(-10) m/s. While for the most part (70%) the crack propagated along the interface, SCC cracking was also found to extend into Alloy 52M along the original direction. This cracking is substantial, yielding SCC rates of 10(-11) m/s.

DE alloy 690; grain boundaries; cold work; stress corrosion cracking; PWR
primary water
AB Unidirectional cold rolling has been shown to promote intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) in alloy 690 tested in PWR primary water. High-resolution scanning (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) have been employed to investigate the microstructural reasons for this enhanced susceptibility in two stages, first examining grain boundary damage produced by cold rolling and second by characterization of stress corrosion crack tips. The degree of permanent grain boundary damage from cold rolling was found to depend directly on the initial IG precipitate distribution. Cold rolling to high levels of reduction was discovered to produce small IG voids and cracked carbides in alloys with a high density of grain boundary carbides. For the same degree of cold rolling, alloys with few IG carbides exhibited much less permanent damage. Although this difference in grain boundary damage appears to correlate with measured SCC growth rates, crack tip examinations reveal no interaction between the pre-existing voids and cracked carbides with the propagation. In many cases, these features appeared to blunt propagation of IGSCC cracks. High-resolution characterizations are described for cold-rolled alloy 690 CRDM tubing and plate materials to gain insights into IGSCC mechanisms.

DE Alloy 690; penetrative oxidation; SCC
AB Analytical electron microscopy and three-dimensional atom probe tomography (ATP) examinations of surface and near-surface oxidation have been performed on Ni-30%Cr alloy 690 materials after exposure to high-temperature, simulated PWR primary water. The oxidation nanostructures have been characterized at crack walls after stress-corrosion crack growth tests and at polished surfaces of unstressed specimens for the same alloys. Localized oxidation was discovered for both crack walls and surfaces as continuous filaments (typically <10 nm in diameter) extending from the water interface into the alloy 690 matrix reaching depths of similar to 500 nm. These filaments consisted of discrete, plate-shaped Cr2O3 particles surrounded by a distribution of nanocrystalline, rock-salt (Ni-Cr-Fe) oxide. The oxide-containing filament depth was found to increase with exposure time and, at longer times, the filaments became very dense at the surface leaving only isolated islands of metal. Individual dislocations were oxidized in non-deformed materials, while the oxidation path appeared to be along more complex dislocation substructures in heavily deformed materials. This paper will highlight the use of high resolution scanning and transmission electron microscopy in combination with APT to better elucidate the microstructure and microchemistry of the filamentary oxidation.

ID STRESS-CORROSION CRACKING
AB Cracking susceptibility of austenitic stainless steels is known to be affected by dissolved oxygen (DO) or corrosion potential. In low-DO environments, crack growth rate (CGR) is significantly lower than that in high-DO environments. A strong dependence of CGR on corrosion potential has also been seen in irradiated stainless steels. While it has been shown that reducing the potential can reduce the CGRs of irradiated SSs, some high-dose specimens have shown elevated CGRs even in low potential environments. Thus, it is not clear how irradiation affects the dependence of CGR on corrosion potential. In the present study, a disk-shaped compact tension specimen of Type 316 SS was tested in low-DO environment. The specimen had been irradiated in the BOR-60 reactor to 5 dpa at 320 degrees C. Post-irradiation CGR tests were performed in a low-DO environment. The effect of unloading on crack growth behavior in low-DO environment is discussed.

ID STRESS-CORROSION CRACKING; MICROSTRUCTURAL EVOLUTION
AB Irradiation-assisted stress corrosion cracking is of concern for the safe and economic operation of light water reactors. In this study, cracking susceptibility of austenitic stainless steels was investigated by using slow strain rate tensile (SSRT) tests in a simulated pressurized water reactor (PWR) environment. The specimens were irradiated to 5, 10, and 48 dpa in the BOR60 reactor at 320 degrees C. The SSRT results showed that yield strength was increased significantly in irradiated specimens while ductility and strain hardening capability were decreased. Irradiation hardening was found to be saturated below 10 dpa. The irradiated yield strength of cold-worked specimens was higher than that of solution-annealed specimens. Fractographic examinations were also performed on the tested specimens, and the dominant fracture morphology was ductile dimples. Intergranular cracking was rarely seen on the fracture surface. Transgranular cleavage cracking, however, was found more frequently on the specimen tested in simulated PWR environment.

AB Detailed examinations of intergranular attack (IGA) in alloy 600 were performed after exposure to simulated PWR primary water at 325 degrees C for 500 h. High-resolution analyses of IGA characteristics were conducted on specimens with either a 1 mu m diamond or 1200-grit SiC surface finish using scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and atom probe tomography techniques. The diamond-polish finish with very little preexisting subsurface damage revealed attack of high-energy grain boundaries that intersected the exposed surface to depths approaching similar to 2 mu m. In all cases, IGA from the surface is localized oxidation consisting of porous, nanocrystalline MO-structure and spinel particles along with regions of faceted wall oxidation. Surprisingly, this continuous IG oxidation transitions to discontinuous, discrete Cr-rich sulfide particles up to similar to 50 nm in diameter. In the vicinity of the sulfides, the grain boundaries were severely Cr depleted (to <1 at%) and enriched in S. The 1200 grit SiC finish surface exhibited a preexisting highly strained recrystallized layer of elongated nanocrystalline matrix grains. Similar IG oxidation and leading sulfide particles were found, but the IGA depth was typically confined to the near-surface (similar to 400 nm) recrystallized region. Difference in IGA for the two surface finishes indicates that the formation of grain boundary sulfides occurs during the exposure to PWR primary water. The source of S remains unclear, however it is not present as sulfides in the bulk alloy nor is it segregated to bulk grain boundaries.

ID CORROSION BEHAVIOR; ALLOYS
AB The Supercritical water-cooled reactor (SCWR) is one of the advanced nuclear reactors being developed to meet the soaring energy demand. The corrosion resistance of structural materials used in the SCWR becomes one of the major concerns as the operation conditions are raised up to similar to 600 degrees C and similar to 25 MPa as compared to pressurized water reactors (PWRs) at similar to 315 degrees C and similar to 15.5 MPa. Oxidation has been observed as the major corrosion behavior. To mitigate the oxidation corrosion, stabilities of metals and oxides need to be understood with respect to environmental temperature and oxygen partial pressure. Computational thermodynamics provides a practical approach to assess phase stabilities of such multicomponent multi-variable systems. In this study, calculated phase stability diagrams of alloys and corresponding oxides were used to guide the interpretation of oxidation behavior of SCW-exposed structural materials. Examples include ferritic-martensitic steel, austenitic steels and Ni-base alloy, e. g., HCM12A (Fe-11Cr), D9 (Fe-15Cr-15Ni), 800H (Fe-21Cr-32Ni), and 690 (Ni-30Cr-10Fe). Calculated results are in good overall consistence with the experimental data.

AB Pinoresinol structures, being important components of softwood lignin, are readily detected by NMR. They escaped detection from beta-ether cleaving degradation analysis presumably due to linkage at their 5-positions in 5-5- or 4-O-5-linked units. In this study, new lignin model compounds related to such pinoresinol structures have been synthesized via a peroxidase-catalyzed H2O2 oxidative coupling reaction using 5-5- or 4-O-5-linked coniferyl alcohol (proposed intermediates) and coniferyl alcohol (CA). It was found that 5-5- or 4-O-5-linked coniferyl alcohol can ertg:T-gzoOn.ple with CA producing pinoresinols in addition to other homo- and cross-coupled products. A total of seven new model compounds have been obtained and characterized by NMR. Based on NMR data of these model compounds, it was demonstrated that 5-5-linked pinoresinol and 4-O-5-linked pinoresinol models could be differentiated in HMBC spectra. With appropriate modification (etherification) to the model compounds obtained in this study, it is likely that 5-5- or 4-O-5-linked pinoresinol structures in softwood lignin can be identified.

AB We review some applications of aberration-corrected electron microscopy for the detailed characterization of semiconducting nanostructures using a combination of high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy. The study of self-assembled quantum wires shows that it is possible to determine the composition of the nanostructures with better than 1 nm resolution down to the atomic level while the contrast in the high-angle annular dark-field images is used to determine the presence of wetting layers separating quantum wires and the strain field arising from the local compositional changes. The local measurements of energy loss spectra demonstrate the shift of plasmon peaks consistent with the changes in lattice parameters. High-angle annular dark-field images are also used to study the contrast in GaSb thin films deposited and study the presence of anti-phase domain boundaries. These examples show that aberration-corrected microscopy combined with electron energy loss spectroscopy provide not only enhanced resolution but also increased sensitivity to atomic site compositional changes.

AB The Domain Name System (DNS) is a foundational component of today's Internet for mapping Internet names to addresses. With the DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC) DNS responses can be cryptographically verified to prevent malicious tampering. The protocol complexity and administrative overhead associated with DNSSEC can significantly impact the potential for name resolution failure. We present metrics for assessing the quality of a DNSSEC deployment, based on its potential for resolution failure in the presence of DNSSEC misconfiguration. We introduce a metric to analyze the administrative complexity of a DNS configuration, which contributes to its failure potential. We then discuss a technique which uses soft anchoring to increase robustness in spite of misconfigurations. We analyze a representative set of production signed DNS zones and determine that 28% of the validation failures we encountered would be mitigated by the soft anchoring technique we propose.

AB We present TopicView, an application for visually comparing and exploring multiple models of text corpora. TopicView uses multiple linked views to visually analyze both the conceptual content and the document relationships in models generated using different algorithms. To illustrate TopicView, we apply it to models created using two standard approaches: Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) and Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA). Conceptual content is compared through the combination of (i) a bipartite graph matching LSA concepts with LDA topics based on the cosine similarities of model factors and (ii) a table containing the terms for each LSA concept and LDA topic listed in decreasing order of importance. Document relationships are examined through the combination of (i) side-by-side document similarity graphs, (ii) a table listing the weights for each document's contribution to each concept/topic, and (iii) a full text reader for documents selected in either of the graphs or the table. We demonstrate the utility of TopicView's visual approach to model assessment by comparing LSA and LDA models of two example corpora.

AB We experimentally and numerically study the nature of coupling between laterally paired terahertz metamaterial split-ring resonators. Coupling is shown to modify the inductive-capacitive (LC) resonances resulting in either red or blue-shifting. These experiments illustrate additional degrees of freedom in tuning the electromagnetic response of metamaterials.

AB We have developed a compressive sampling method based on Hadamard transform for active and passive millimeter wave (mmW) imaging. Hadamard masks of subwavelength sized pixels were used for collecting spatial mmW modulated data with a single-pixel detector system. The image reconstruction from subsampled data was based on a real time, iterative interpolation relaxation technique in the Hadamard space. Compressive sampled active and passive imaging results show that high-fidelity images of objects may be obtained with as small as 1/9 of the data needed for a full set of acquisitions.

AB We report the results of a project aimed to construct a novel passive millimeter-wave spectrometer based on a Photonic Band Gap (PBG) channel-drop filter (CDF). There is a need for a compact wide-band versatile and configurable millimeter-wave spectrometer for applications in millimeter-wave communications, radio astronomy, and radar receivers for remote sensing and nonproliferation. PBG CDFs allow channeling of selected frequencies from spectra into separate waveguides through a PBG structure. We have successfully designed, fabricated and tested a dielectric PBG CDF operating in a low THz frequency range at 240 GHz. This technology is expandable to frequencies up to 1 THz. We have also fabricated and tested a 3-channel device using the same technology, with the channels at around 240 GHz, 260 GHz and 280 GHz. To cover the lower frequency part of the spectrum, we have designed, fabricated and tested a metal version of the PBG CDF operating at 108 GHz. This technology is expandable to frequencies as low as 30 GHz. Design, fabrication and testing of the above filters will be presented at the conference.

ID UNCERTAINTIES
AB Linear mathematical models frequently provide good approximations to the input-output relations for real systems. However, ensembles of systems that are nominally identical cannot, usually, be adequately represented with a single model because real systems are stochastic. The randomness in real systems must be modeled if the randomness bears on critical behaviors of the system. The behavior of linear systems can be represented in parametric or non-parametric form; the latter framework is used, here. Among the frameworks available for characterization of system behavior, we choose the frequency response function (FRF). We choose to work with the FRF because many system attributes can be interpreted by inspection of the FRF, and it can be used directly for control design. This paper improves a previously developed Karhunen-Loeve expansion (KLE) representation for linear system behavior based on FRF data. The improvement yields a compact representation of the uncertainty inherent in an ensemble of systems and avoids the introduction of unwanted features in the system representation. This non-parametric, compact representation of the distribution of linear systems can then be used to characterize the performance and stability of a given feedback control law, as well as for control law design.

AB Sliding-mode observers are used to construct unknown input estimators. Then, these unknown input estimators are combined with sensor fault estimation schemes into one architecture that employs two sliding-mode observers for simultaneously estimating the plant's actuator faults (part of the unknown input) and detecting sensor faults. Closed form expressions are presented for the estimates of unknown inputs and sensor faults. A benchmark example of a controlled inverted pendulum system from the literature is utilized in the simulation study. The study shows that the observers analyzed in this paper generate good estimates of the unknown input and sensor faults signals in noisy environments for nonlinear plants.

AB Advances in materials science are fundamental to technological developments and have broad societal impacts. For example, years of materials science research has gone into developing cellular phones which are composed of polymer cases, liquid crystal displays, LEDs, silicon chips, Ni-Cd batteries, resistors, capacitors, speakers, and microphones, and compacted into a space equivalent to that of a deck of cards. Like many technological developments, cellular phones have become a ubiquitous part of society, and yet most people know little about the materials science associated with their development. The rich context that materials science provides for learning Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) content and the need to enhance K-12 educators' knowledge of materials science was the motivation for developing and offering a 20 hour four-day professional development course entitled "Living in a Materials World." In addition to exposing the participating K-12 educators to the fundamentals of materials science, the course provided a means for bridging our every day experiences and the work of scientists and engineers.
"Living in a Materials World" was one of the fifteen STEM content courses offered as part of the Idaho Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (i-STEM) summer institute for upper elementary and middle school teachers. The four-day institute included a 20 hour course and 12-16 hours of plenary sessions, planning, and collaborative sharing. The goal of the i-STEM institute was to enhance the participating educators' STEM content knowledge, capacity for teaching STEM, comfort and attitudes toward teaching STEM, knowledge of how people learn, and strategies for integrating STEM throughout the curriculum. In addition, the participants received STEM curriculum in materials science and a resource kit composed of STEM materials and equipment, valued at about $300, to support the implementation of curriculum and content learned at the institute with their students.
The i-STEM summer institute participants were pre/post tested on their comfort with STEM, perceptions of STEM education, pedagogical discontentment, implementations of inquiry, attitudes toward student learning of STEM, and content knowledge associated with the specific course they took during the institute. The results from our research indicate a significant increase in content knowledge for the Living in a Materials World strand participants (t = 11.36, p < .01) (results were similar in the other courses). As a whole the summer institute participants expressed significant increases in their comfort levels for teaching STEM (t = 10.94, p < .01), inquiry implementation (t = 5.72, p < .01) and efficacy for teaching STEM (t = 6.27, p < .01), and a significant decrease in pedagogical discontentment (t = -6.26, p < .01).

AB We report a novel laser cavity design in third-order distributed feedback terahertz quantum-cascade lasers based on true phase-matching technique. This approach dramatically increases the usable length of third-order DFB lasers and leads to even narrower beam patterns and likely higher output power. Single frequency emissions from 150 apertures (5.6-mm long device) are coherently added up to form a narrow beam with similar to 6 degrees divergence. Similar device with 40 apertures shows more than 5 mW optical power with slope efficiency similar to 140 mW/A at 10 K pulsed operation. (C) 2010 Optical Society of America

AB Stoichiometric vanadium dioxide in all of its bulk, thin film and nanostructured forms exhibits an insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) accompanied by structural change, induced by various physical and chemical stimuli such as temperature, ultrashort light pulses, electric field, doping or strain. In these applications, the optical qualities of the films are of paramount importance, but are often highly variable depending on fabrication procedure. We have grown epitaxial films of vanadium dioxide on c-plane (0001) of sapphire using two different procedures involving room temperature growth followed by annealing and direct high temperature growth. Strain at the interface of the substrate and the film due to growth at different temperatures leads to significantg differences in morphologies and phase transition characteristics. We present a comparative study of the morphologies and switching characteristics of the two films and conclude that contrary to conventional wisdom, the room-temperature grown films have smoother, more continuous morphologies and better switching performance. Our observation is supported by theoretical and experimental studies of epitaxial growth of semiconductors. (C) 2010 Optical Society of America

AB The fabrication of digital planar holograms by Step and Repeat UV nanoimprint lithography is reported. It opens a route for commercial development of new nanophotonic devices based on digital planar holography. Two first applications to be demonstrated are the high resolution spectrometer chips and the enhancement of brightness and power of laser diodes.

We observe a clear switching effect in the plasmonic as well as metamaterial devices as the superconducting film undergoes phase change at the transition temperature.

DE optical fiber; thermographic phosphor (TGP); decay time; thermometry
AB Luminescence from a thermographic phosphor (TGP) can be very sensitive to temperature, an attribute exploited in commercial and scientific applications at various levels. Depending on the formulation and the processing method, phosphor particle sizes may range from a few nanometers to dozens of microns across. The size, then, may be comparable to or even much smaller than a typical biological cell. In previous biomedical efforts we have explored using TGP's as 1) flow tracers in simulations of positive pressure infusion for brain tumors, 2) their performance for nanoscale thermometry at physiological temperatures, and 3) as surrogates for green fluorescent protein-labelled cells in tests of cytometric neurocatheters. The present effort provides additional supporting quantitative information to aid deployment of phosphor thermometry for cellular level applications. One of the most temperature-sensitive phosphors is La2O2S:Eu. At normal body temperature, a one degree C change in temperature results in a greater than 5% change in decay time. In this work, it is demonstrated that temperature changes of at least 0.05 C can be resolved using this phosphor. Also demonstrated is detection of phosphor signal using small diameter multimode and even single-mode optical fiber. The latter fiber had a 5 micron diameter core and is therefore only slightly larger than biological cells. In conclusion, the results may serve as a guide to further investigations and application of phosphors to biomedical applications.

AB Renewable biofuels are primary research targets as sources for sustainable, net-zero-carbon, alternative energy. In this vein, we are developing an imaging device for whole plant measurement of vascular and metabolic processes. It will provide new information geared towards increasing the output of biofuels and the resilience of plant feedstock. Single Photon Emission Computer Tomography (SPECT) is a commonly used medical imaging technique capable of creating three dimensional images as well as time-lapsed, four dimensional images. SPECT relies upon the administration of radionuclides that emit photons at discrete energies. Establishing uptake and detectable emission threshold levels of delivered activity to a SPECT imaging subject is essential for successful quantitative studies. We present application of radionuclide based uptake and decay measurement of the commonly used medical isotope, Tc-99m, to the quantitative study of Populus deltoids physiology for the purposes of developing this species as a lignocellulose based biofuel feedstock.

AB A team from Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has developed an RFID Accountability System (RAS) that allows items with active RFID tags to be tracked in environments where tags may not be able to transmit their location continuously. The system uses activators that transmit a short range signal. Active RFID tags are in a sleep state until they encounter an activator. Then they transmit a signal that is picked up by the antennas installed throughout the building. This paper presents the theory of operation, application areas, lessons learned, and key features developed over the course of seven years of development and use.

AB Power Supply Controls are being developed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) to test transmission line components of the Electron Cyclotron Heating (ECH) system, with a focus on gyrotrons and waveguides, in support of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). The control is performed by several Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC's) located near the different equipment. A technique of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) is presented to monitor, control, and log actions of the PLC's on a PC through use of Allen Bradley's Remote I/O communication interface coupled with an Open Process Control/Object Linking and Embedding [OLE] for Process Control (OPC) Server/Client architecture. The OPC data is then linked to a National Instruments (NI) LabVIEW system for monitoring and control. Details of the architecture and insight into applicability to other systems are presented in the rest of this paper. Future integration with an EPICS (Experimental Physics Industrial Control System) - based mini-CODAC (Control, Data Access and Communication) SCADA system is under consideration, and integration considerations will be briefly introduced.

AB Biometric authentication modalities such as face and iris recognition provide a minimally invasive means to uniquely identify individuals and verify identity. Most commercially available biometric systems perform authentication based on a single modality and/or only capture features from a short distance. Most existing standoff iris sensors capture at a lower frame rate, lower resolution, and wider field of view than our system. This work describes the design of a prototype standoff biometric sensor. The complete system is comprised of three sensors, their respective software control modules, and a command and control graphical user interface. Sensor 1 is a high resolution monochrome camera with telephoto zoom and video rate image acquisition. Co-aligned, collimated near infrared (NIR) light emitting diodes (LEDs) provide controlled illumination to facilitate the capture of face and iris images. Sensor 2 is a monochrome stereo camera that acquires low resolution frontal face images and scene depth information. Sensor 3 is dual spectrum camera that acquires pixel registered visible and NIR images at video rate. Ambient room light and NIR flood LEDs provide illumination for capturing profile face and gait images. Real-time analysis of the stereo camera output provides feedback for pan, tilt, zoom, and focus of the sensor platform. A Modularized software control system provides scalability and flexible management. Commodity hardware can be used to control all system components with the exception of sensor 1.

AB Given the growing concerns surrounding declared and undeclared nuclear activities around the world, a novel multi-modal imaging system combining gamma imaging, visible-light imaging, and multi-resolution 3D imaging has been developed at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). As part of an international collaborative effort, this research aims at providing a portable imaging system to assess, monitor and/or detect nuclear material dispersion in nuclear facilities. This novel imaging system includes (1) a coded-aperture gamma-ray imager that provides a map of all major radiological sources present in the field-of-view and (2) a low-resolution stereo system to retrieve high-level 3D scene information. Using a unique approach to combine the data a 3D model of the scene can be rendered with the gamma information as a projected texture, therefore allowing easy visualization of the location of all detected radiological sources. In this paper, we give a summary of this research by first presenting the instruments, then by detailing our approach to project gamma information on the high-resolution 3D point-cloud, and presenting the results of the first field trial of the system.

This paper will discuss technologies needed to ensure safe and effective operation of the existing fleet. There will be an increased need for condition-based maintenance applied to active components. It is increasingly recognized that new and advanced sensors and systems will be needed to enable the move from current NDE, with periodic inspections and a find-and-fix approach, to prognostics: using online monitoring to enable operators to proactively manage systems with prediction of remaining useful life.

AB A custom signal processing and data acquisition platform has been developed to facilitate optimization of optics-based sensors and associated electronics for tissue perfusion assessment. This laboratory system allows simultaneous use of four optical probes, two photo-spectrometer probes, and up to eight external analog inputs intended for synchronized digitization of commercial physiological monitoring equipment. Each optical probe is composed of a photo-detector and three LED-based excitation wavelengths, for use in either transmission or reflection mode. The system is operated using a custom, LabVIEW-based program to allow programming of system control and data acquisition parameters. Details of this system including the measurement methodology, electronics specifics, control software, and signal processing will be reviewed. Limited data from porcine studies collected using this system will also be presented. When optimized, the required portions of the system will be miniaturized and integrated with data telemetry to enable use as an implanted, post-transplant perfusion monitor. This miniaturized platform may also be suitable for both acute and routine multi-parameter physiological monitoring in medical, sports, and military applications.

AB America's 4.7 million commercial buildings account for nearly one-fifth of the U. S. energy consumption. Studies estimate that commercial building instrumentation and control systems that can provide energy management and control, HVAC commissioning, HVAC fault detection, and lighting management have the potential to reduce up to 30% energy consumption. The most significant key enabler for this progress is future instrumentation systems that can be deployed in commercial buildings with the proper balance of life cycle cost and performance. A synopsis of an ongoing ORNL R&D activity involving advanced instrumentation designed for deploying in single-story and two-story flexible research platforms at ORNL is presented. This includes low cost wireless sensor networks (WSN), energy management and control, intelligent building fault detection and diagnosis (FDD), and advanced control methodologies and how they can be applied to existing buildings as a retrofit strategy.

AB Increasing concern over the smuggling of fissile material has prompted recent interest in constructing portable, rapidly deployable portal monitors to detect gamma radiation in passing vehicles. In this paper, we introduce a stereo system for precise, real-time, road side tracking of vehicles in multi-lane roadways. The stereo system reports 3-D vehicle tracks to a gamma imager, which uses the track information to compensate for vehicle motion and produce detectable gamma peaks. We first describe the algorithmic components of the system, including calibration, camera motion correction, point tracking, stereo correspondence, and vehicle clustering. We also describe the physical system configuration. We then report results from tracking two different vehicles at speeds ranging from 5 to 20 MPH. We report on the accuracy of the system, where we observed a worst-case tracking error of 31 cm and an average tracking error of 9 cm in the direction of motion from a viewing distance of approximately 15 m.

AB Miscellaneous and electronic loads (MELs) consume about 30% of the electricity used in U. S. commercial buildings, but our understanding of their energy use lags the traditional end-uses. A key component of reducing energy use is understanding how devices are used, but few studies have collected field data on the long-term energy used by a large sample of devices due to the difficulty and expense of collecting device-level energy data. This paper describes a wireless MELs metering system and an office building case study where these meters were deployed. Hundreds of miscellaneous and electronic devices where metered for several months. This paper includes key findings on the meters, network and MELs energy use.

AB Highway queue warning provides early congestion estimation to motorists and reduces potential delay by allowing them to either change lanes or take alternate routes. It can facilitate effective highway operations as well as lower energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission by preventing traffic from congestion. Quality of the estimation depends heavily on real-time traffic data. This paper proposes a framework for early queue warning and presents an initial effort on intelligent network flow optimization with near real-time data collected by passive sensory systems. Along with near real-time traffic data, highway performance is visualized and traffic congestion can be observed from its beginnings. The framework not only shows a systematic approach to conduct queue warning for highway operations but also severs as a platform to bridge the demand and supply of sensing technologies. Primary components of the framework and future needs on traffic data are also discussed.

AB Soldiers returning from the global war on terror requiring lower leg prosthetics generally have different concerns and requirements than the typical lower leg amputee. These subjects are usually young, wish to remain active and often desire to return to active military duty. As such, they demand higher performance from their prosthetics, but are at risk for chronic injury and joint conditions in their unaffected limb. Motion analysis is a valuable tool in assessing the performance of new and existing prosthetic technologies as well as the methods in fitting these devices to both maximize performance and minimize risk of injury for the individual soldier. We are developing a mobile, low-cost motion analysis system using inertial measurement units (IMUs) and two custom force sensors that detect ground reaction forces and moments on both the unaffected limb and prosthesis. IMUs were tested on a robot programmed to simulate human gait motion. An algorithm which uses a kinematic model of the robot and an extended Kalman filter (EKF) was used to convert the rates and accelerations from the gyro and accelerometer into joint angles. Compared to encoder data from the robot, which was considered the ground truth in this experiment, the inertial measurement system had a RMSE of <1.0 degree. Collecting kinematic and kinetic data without the restrictions and expense of a motion analysis lab could help researchers, designers and prosthetists advance prosthesis technology and customize devices for individuals. Ultimately, these improvements will result in better prosthetic performance for the military population.

AB Modern sensors are often integrated into microprocessor chips or into packages with embedded processors to provide "smart sensor" capabilities or to function in networks (e. g., wireless sensor networks) to make complex measurements and to distribute the processing load by performing initial data analysis tasks close to the point of measurement. These systems have many of the operating characteristics of distributed control systems (DCSs), including attendant advantages and vulnerabilities. Important desirable features of DCSs include use of network communications, access to file servers and services supported by modern operating systems. Cyber security, however, is a significant area of vulnerability requiring attention. The International Society for Automation (ISA) has and is developing standards (ISA99) to address all aspects of cyber security for industrial automation. One of these aspects deals with development of security metrics that can be used to determine compliance with the security standards and can also serve as a basis for an effort to monitor in real time those processes that have potential associated security risks and to provide warning of the occurrence of possible security incidents. Security metrics developed for ISA99 are described and some ways to use them to protect instrument systems are proposed.

AB We discuss how sensor technologies have enabled the development of proactive energy management (EM) systems. At the same time, we discuss how these emerging EM systems motivate the development of new sensor technologies. Proactive EM systems integrate advances in weather forecasting, sensors, predictive models, and real-time optimization algorithms to anticipate uncertain factors that affect energy performance and costs and make real-time set-point corrections (supply conditions, ventilation rates, thermostats) to modulate them. Ongoing deployment studies have found that up to 30% HVAC energy savings are achievable with this type of technology. We describe extensions of these systems to exploit emerging sensor technologies including occupancy, ventilation, and air quality sensors.

AB The emergence of Petascale systems has raised new challenges to performance analysis tools. Understanding every single detail of an execution is important to bridge the gap between the theoretical peak and the actual performance achieved. Tracing tools are the best option when it comes to providing detailed information about the application behavior, but not without liabilities. The amount of information that a single execution can generate grows so fast that it easily becomes unmanageable. An effective analysis in such scenarios necessitates the intelligent selection of information.
In this paper we present an on-line performance tool based on spectral analysis of signals that automatically identifies the different computing phases of the application as it runs, selects a few representative periods and decides the granularity of the information gathered for these regions. As a result, the execution is completely characterized at different levels of detail, reducing the amount of data collected while maximizing the amount of useful information presented for the analysis.

AB Hardware and software co-design is becoming increasingly important due to complexities in supercomputing architectures. Simulating applications before there is access to the real hardware can assist machine architects in making better design decisions that can optimize application performance. At the same time, the application and runtime can be optimized and tuned beforehand. BigSim is a simulation-based performance prediction framework designed for these purposes. It can be used to perform packet-level network simulations of parallel applications using existing parallel machines. In this paper, we demonstrate the utility of BigSim in analyzing and optimizing parallel application performance for future systems based on the PERCS network. We present simulation studies using benchmarks and real applications expected to run on future supercomputers. Future petascale systems will have more than 100,000 cores, and we present simulations at that scale.

The LOBAR design allows for high transduction efficiency and quality factors, by decoupling the transduction and energy storage schemes in the resonator. The frequency and bandwidth of the resonator were lithographically defined and controlled. A LOBAR operating at 2.93GHz with a Q greater than 100,000 in air was fabricated and characterized, having the highest reported fxQ product of any acoustic resonator to date.

AB The difficulty of securing computer infrastructures increases as they grow in size and complexity. Network-based security solutions such as IDS and firewalls cannot scale because of exponentially increasing computational costs inherent in detecting the rapidly growing number of threat signatures. Host-based solutions like virus scanners and IDS suffer similar issues that are compounded when enterprises try to monitor them in a centralized manner.
Swarm-based autonomous agent systems like digital ants and artificial immune systems can provide a scalable security solution for large network environments. The digital ants approach offers a biologically inspired design where each ant in the virtual colony can detect atoms of evidence that may help identify a possible threat. By assembling the atomic evidences from different ant types the colony may detect the threat. This decentralized approach can require, on average, fewer computational resources than traditional centralized solutions; however there are limits to its scalability. This paper describes how dividing a large infrastructure into smaller, managed enclaves allows the digital ant framework to effectively operate in larger environments. Experimental results will show that using smaller enclaves allows for more consistent distribution of agents and results in faster response times.

AB Understanding shared cache performance when executing multithreaded object-oriented applications and optimizing these applications for multicores have not received much attention. In this paper, we first quantify the intra-thread and inter-thread cache line (block) reuse characteristics of a set of multithreaded C++ programs when executed in shared cache based multicores. Our results show that, as far as shared on-chip caches are concerned, inter-thread cache line (block) reuse distances are much higher than intra-thread cache line reuse distances. We study the impact of these characteristics on the hit/miss behavior of the shared last-level cache on a commercial multicore machine. We then show that, by rearranging accesses to the objects shared across different threads and to the objects stored in nearby memory locations, inter-thread (temporal and spatial) object reuse distances can be reduced, which in turn helps to reduce inter-thread cache line reuse distances. The results we collected using eight multithreaded applications show that our proposed shared cache-aware code restructuring strategy can reduce misses in the last-level on-chip cache of a commercial multicore machine by 25.4%, on average. These savings in cache misses translate in turn to average execution time improvement of 11.9%.

AB Many subsystems encountered in communication systems can be modeled as linear periodic time-varyiing (LPTV) systems. In this paper, we present a novel structure preserving reduced-order modeling algorithm for LPTV systems. A key advance of our approach is that it preserves the periodic time-varying structure during the reduction process, thus resulting in reduced LPTV systems. Unlike prior LPTV model order reduction (MOR) techniques which recast the LPTV systems to artificial linear time-invariant (LTI) systems and apply LTI MOR techniques for reduction, our structure preserving algorithm uses a time-varying projection directly on the original LPTV systems. Our approach always produces a smaller system than the original system, which was not valid for previous LPTV MOR techniques. We validate the proposed technique with several circuit examples, demonstrating significant size reductions and excellent accuracy.

AB In this work, we developed a self-organizing map (SOM) technique for using web-based text analysis to forecast when a group is undergoing a phase change. By "phase change, we mean that an organization has fundamentally shifted attitudes or behaviors. For instance, when ice melts into water, the characteristics of the substance change. A formerly peaceful group may suddenly adopt violence, or a violent organization may unexpectedly agree to a ceasefire. SOM techniques were used to analyze text obtained from organization postings on the world-wide web. Results suggest it may be possible to forecast phase changes, and determine if an example of writing can be attributed to a group of interest.

AB This work presents an approach to determine the input voltage value of each cell in a cascade H-bridge multilevel inverter using a sensor at the output of the inverter to eliminate all the dc voltage sensors measuring the individual source voltages. The input voltages can be equal or unequal. The MOSFET device datasheet, the ambient temperature, and the modulation strategy are utilized to estimate the switch voltage drop to compensate for the measurement. The output voltage is then processed by a DSP unit that uses the signals that command the switches to estimate the voltage at each cell. Simulation and experimental results are shown for a seven-level cascade multilevel inverter operating under a RLC load.

AB The use of variable-speed wind power generation has seen considerable growth. The use of gearboxes in wind turbines allows for smaller size, lower weight, and higher speed generators. In this paper, we attempt to describe methods to extend the life and reliability of wind turbine drivetrains by reducing the mechanical stress. We will represent a two-mass model for the drivetrain of a 750-kW wind turbine. This model is verified by using simulation and experimental results. A controller is designed to adjust the generator torque at the end of the drivetrain to remove the unwanted and damaging torque variations from the drivetrain. The ultimate goal of this study is to present a detailed model of the drivetrain, including the gearbox and ways to mitigate the stress on the gearbox.

AB This paper presents the use of inter-phase interleaving for three-phase voltage source converter (VSC). With the proposed inter-phase interleaving, the output three-phase voltages can be balanced even though low non-triple carrier ratios, such as 5 or 7, are used for the VSC. First, the impacts of sideband harmonic components on the fundamental component are analyzed in detail. The validity of analysis is demonstrated by the explanation of beat phenomenon related to non-integer carrier ratio. Based on the analysis, the unbalance issue of output voltages due to non-triple carrier ratio is explained. After that, the inter-phase interleaving control method is proposed to correct such unbalance. With this control method, the output voltages are balanced even with non-triple carrier ratios. The corresponding penalty of potential higher current THD is also discussed in detail. The analysis and control method can be applied to both two-level and multi-level converters. Experimental results verify the analysis and the feasibility of the proposed control method.

ID ELECTROTHERMAL SIMULATION
AB Most of the failures in IGBTs are caused by thermal fatigue. Hence, the thermal analysis of IGBTs for each particular application is an important step in determining their lifetime. In this paper, the thermal analysis of a STATCOM is presented for two different applications, power factor correction and harmonic elimination. The STATCOM model is developed in EMTP for the above mentioned functions. The analytical equations for average conduction losses in an IGBT and a diode are derived. The electrothermal model is used to estimate the temperature of the IGBT. A comparative analysis of the thermal stresses on the IGBT with various parameters such as power factor, harmonic frequency, and harmonic amplitude is presented as a basis for future reliability testing of IGBTs in FACTS applications.

ID MODELS
AB To accommodate the wind power fluctuation, a hybrid energy storage system (HESS) consisting of battery energy system (BESS) and super-capacitor is adopted in this paper. A probability-based power capacity specification approach for the BESS and super-capacitors is proposed. Through this method the capacities of BESS and super-capacitor are properly designed to combine the characteristics of high energy density of BESS and the characteristics of high power density of super-capacitor. It turns out that the super-capacitor within HESS deals with the high frequency fluctuations, which contributes to the extension of BESS lifetime, and the super-capacitor can handle the peaks in wind power fluctuations without the severe penalty of round trip losses associated with a BESS. The proposed approach has been verified based on the real wind data from an existing wind power plant in Iowa.

Attention is focused on the design of the IPM rotor, including investigations of the impact of varying the magnet height and the depth of the magnet chevron midpoint on key performance metrics. This paper also addresses interaction between the electromagnetic and structural characteristics of the rotor as bridge and post widths are varied. Predicted performance characteristics of the machine are presented and design techniques are described for improving the machine efficiency at high operating speeds. Test results gathered from an experimental machine exhibit promising agreement with the predicted performance.

AB The purpose of this study is to determine the thermal feasibility of an air-cooled 55-kW power inverter with SiC devices. Air flow rate, ambient air temperature, voltage, and device switching frequency were studied parametrically by performing transient and steady-state simulations. The transient simulations were based on inverter current that represents the US06 supplemental federal test procedure from the US EPA. The results demonstrate the thermal feasibility of using air to cool a cylindrical-shaped 55-kW SiC traction drive inverter with axial-flow of air. When the inverter model is subject to one or multiple current cycles, the maximum device temperature does not exceed 164 degrees C ( 327 degrees F) for an inlet flow rate of 270 cfm, ambient temperature of 120 degrees C, voltage of 650 V, and switching frequency of 20 kHz. The results show that the ideal blower power input for the entire inverter with a total inlet air flow rate of 540 cfm is 312 W.

The idea is to use the angle of the current vector to regulate the rotor speed while keeping the two dc-dc converter power switches on all the time to boost system efficiency. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme was verified with a 3 kW CSI-SPMSM drive prototype.

The electrochemical processes that cause specific dynamic behaviors have been investigated. These processes are explained and a non-linear electric model, which captures the results of some of these electrochemical dynamics, is presented. The method to determine model parameters using experimental data is shown. To verify the battery model, both a pulsed current profile and an arbitrary current profile were applied to the battery and to the battery model and the voltage responses of the two were compared.

AB In the analysis of iterative coding systems it is often necessary to compare two densities and to measure how close they are. Sometimes it is convenient to compare their entropy or their Battacharyya parameter. But sometimes a more powerful measure is required. The Wasserstein metric is a convenient choice. We derive some basic properties of the Wasserstein metric which are important in the context of iterative coding. In particular, we will see how the Wasserstein metric compares to some other natural measures (such as the difference of entropies or Battacharyya parameters) and how the Wasserstein metric behaves under "natural" operations, like variable-or check-node convolution or under convex combinations.
As an "application" we show how to prove the existence of the belief propagation Generalized EXIT curve for a non-trivial portion of the parameters.

AB Protein identification is an important objective for proteomic and medical sciences as well as for pharmaceutical industry. With recent large-scale automation of genome sequencing and the explosion of protein databases, it is important to exploit latest data processing technologies and design highly scalable algorithms to speed up protein identification. In this study, we design, implement, and evaluate a new software tool, Bitmapped Mass Fingerprinting (BMF), that can efficiently construct a bitmap index for short peptides, and quickly identify candidate proteins from leading protein databases. BMF is developed by integrating the FastBit indexing technology and the popular Message Passing Interface (MPI) for parallelization. By exploiting FastBit for peptide mass fingerprinting across protein boundaries, we are able to accomplish parallel computation and I/O for a scalable implementation of protein identification. Our experimental results show that BMF brings dramatic performance improvement for protein identification from various protein databases. In particular, we demonstrate that BMF can effectively scale up to 8,192 cores on the Jaguar Supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, achieving superb performance in identifying proteins from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) non-redundant (NR) protein database.

AB The scalability and performance of collective communication operations limit the scalability and performance of many scientific applications. This paper presents two new blocking and nonblocking Broadcast algorithms for communicators with arbitrary communication topology, and studies their performance. These algorithms benefit from increased concurrency and a reduced memory footprint, making them suitable for use on large-scale systems. Measuring small, medium, and large data Broadcasts on a Cray-XT5, using 24,576 MPI processes, the Cheetah algorithms outperform the native MPI on that system by 51%, 69%, and 9%, respectively, at the same process count. These results demonstrate an algorithmic approach to the implementation of the important class of collective communications, which is high performing, scalable, and also uses resources in a scalable manner.

AB The IDX data format provides efficient, cache oblivious, and progressive access to large-scale scientific datasets by storing the data in a hierarchical Z (HZ) order. Data stored in IDX format can be visualized in an interactive environment allowing for meaningful explorations with minimal resources. This technology enables real-time, interactive visualization and analysis of large datasets on a variety of systems ranging from desktops and laptop computers to portable devices such as iPhones/iPads and over the web. While the existing ViSUS API for writing IDX data is serial, there are obvious advantages of applying the IDX format to the output of large scale scientific simulations. We have therefore developed PIDX - a parallel API for writing data in an IDX format. With PIDX it is now possible to generate IDX datasets directly from large scale scientific simulations with the added advantage of real-time monitoring and visualization of the generated data.
In this paper, we provide an overview of the IDX file format and how it is generated using PIDX. We then present a data model description and a novel aggregation strategy to enhance the scalability of the PIDX library. The S3D combustion application is used as an example to demonstrate the efficacy of PIDX for a real-world scientific simulation. S3D is used for fundamental studies of turbulent combustion requiring exceptionally high fidelity simulations. PIDX achieves up to 18 GiB/s I/O throughput at 8,192 processes for S3D to write data out in the IDX format. This allows for interactive analysis and visualization of S3D data, thus, enabling in situ analysis of S3D simulation.

DE High Performance Computing; Energy Optimization; Templates
AB In this work we consider a novel application centric approach for saving energy on large-scale parallel systems. By using a priori information on the expected application behavior we identify points at which processor-cores will wait for incoming data and thus may be placed in a low power state to save energy. The approach is general and complements many of the existing approaches that rely on saving energy at points of global synchronization. We capture the expected application behavior into an Energy Template whose purpose is to identify when cores are expected to be in an idle state and allow the runtime to use the template information and change the power state of the core. We prototype an Energy Template for a wavefront algorithm that contains an complex processing pattern in which cores wait for incoming data before processing local data and whose wait-time varies from phase to phase. The implementation uses PMPI and requires minimal changes to the application code. Using a power instrumented cluster we demonstrate that using an Energy Template for the wavefront application lowers the power requirements by 8% when using 216 cores, from the system maximum of 23%, and the energy requirements by 4%. We also show that the wavefront's inherent parallel activity will lead to increased savings on larger systems.

AB In this work we provide an early performance analysis of the communication network in a small-scale POWER7-IH processing system from IBM. Using a set of communication micro-benchmarks we quantify the achievable bandwidth of the communication links available in the system that differ in their peak performance characteristics. We also identify the bottlenecks within the communication network and show that the bandwidth a single node can inject into the network is considerably less than the bandwidth available to the IBM hub chip, that acts as a NIC to the node as well as being an integral part of the P7-IH network. Using a communication pattern that is representative of activities in many scientific applications that have regular communication patterns, we show how the default task-to-core assignment on the P7-IH achieves sub-optimal performance in most cases. We also show that when using a diagonal-cyclic assignment, as developed in this work that takes into account the network topology as well as routing strategy, the communication performance can be improved by up to 75%. We expect even greater improvements in the communication performance on larger P7-IH systems.

DE load balancing; causal message logging; fault tolerance
AB Computing systems will grow significantly larger in the near future to satisfy the needs of computational scientists in areas like climate modeling, biophysics and cosmology. Supercomputers being installed in the next few years will comprise millions of cores, hundreds of thousands of processor chips and millions of physical components. However, it is expected that failures become more prevalent in those machines to the point where 10% of an Exascale system will be wasted just recovering from failures. Further, with such large numbers of cores, fine-grained and dynamic load balance will become increasingly critical for maintaining good system utilization. This paper addresses both fault tolerance and load balancing by presenting a novel extension of traditional message logging protocols based on team checkpointing.
Message logging makes it possible to recover from localized failures by rolling back just the failed processing elements. Since this comes at a high memory overhead from logging all communication, we reduce this cost by organizing processing elements into teams and only logging messages between teams. Further, we show how to dynamically partition the application into teams to simultaneously minimize the cost of fault tolerance and to balance application load. We experimentally show that this scheme has low overhead and can dramatically reduce the memory cost of message logging.

DE Parallel programming; multicore; manycore; GPGPU
AB Large, complex scientific and engineering application code have a significant investment in computational kernels to implement their mathematical models. Porting these computational kernels to the collection of modern manycore accelerator devices is a major challenge in that these devices have diverse programming models, application programming interfaces (APIs), and performance requirements. The Trilinos-Kokkos array programming model provides library-based approach to implement computational kernels that are performance-portable to CPU-multicore and GPGPU accelerator devices. This programming model is based upon three fundamental concepts: (1) there exists one or more manycore compute devices each with its own memory space, (2) data parallel kernels are executed via parallel_for and parallel_reduce operations, and (3) kernels operate on multidimensional arrays. Kernel execution performance is, especially for NVIDIA (R) GPGPU devices, extremely dependent on data access patterns. An optimal data access pattern can be different for different manycore devices - potentially leading to different implementations of computational kernels specialized for different devices. The Trilinos-Kokkos programming model support performance-portable kernels by separating data access patterns from computational kernels through a multidimensional array API. Through this API device-specific mappings of multi-indices to device memory are introduced into a computational kernel through compile-time polymorphism; i.e., without modification of the kernel.

ID VISUALIZATION
AB Using multi-GPU systems, including GPU clusters, is gaining popularity in scientific computing. However, when using multiple GPUs concurrently, the conventional data parallel GPU programming paradigms, e. g., CUDA, cannot satisfactorily address certain issues, such as load balancing, GPU resource utilization, overlapping fine-grained computation with communication, etc. In this paper, we present a fine-grained task-based execution framework for multi-GPU systems. By scheduling finer-grained tasks than what is supported in the conventional CUDA programming method among multiple GPUs, and allowing concurrent task execution on a single GPU, our framework provides means for solving the above issues and efficiently utilizing multi-GPU systems. Experiments with a molecular dynamics application show that, for non-uniform distributed workload, the solutions based on our framework achieve good load balance, and considerable performance improvement over other solutions based on the standard CUDA programming methodologies.

AB Performance portability is a major challenge faced today by developers on heterogeneous high performance computers, consisting of an interconnect, memory with non-uniform access, many-cores and accelerators like GPUs. Recent studies have successfully demonstrated that dense linear algebra operations can be efficiently handled by runtime systems using a DAG representation. In this work, we present the GPU subsystem of the DAGuE runtime, and assess, on the Cholesky factorization test case, the minimal efforts required by a programmer to enable GPU acceleration in the DAGuE framework. The performance achieved by this unchanged code, on a variety of heterogeneous and distributed many cores and GPU resources, demonstrates the desired performance portability.

DE sorting; GPUs; performance analysis
AB In the past few years, performance improvements in CPUs and memory technologies have outpaced those of storage systems. When extrapolated to the exascale, this trend places strict limits on the amount of data that can be written to disk for full analysis, resulting in an increased reliance on characterizing in-memory data. Many of these characterizations are simple, but require sorted data. This paper explores an example of this type of characterization-the identification of quartiles and statistical outliers-and presents a performance analysis of a distributed heterogeneous radix sort as well as an assessment of current architectural bottlenecks.

DE I/O Forwarding; Scientific Data Compression
ID STANDARD
AB While network bandwidth is steadily increasing, it is doing so at a much slower rate than the corresponding increase in CPU performance. This trend has widened the gap between CPU and network speed. In this paper, we investigate improvements to I/O performance by exploiting this gap. We harness idle CPU resources to compress network traffic, reducing the amount of data transferred over the network and increasing effective network bandwidth. We created a set of compression services within the I/O Forwarding Scalability Layer. These services transparently compress and decompress data as it is transferred over the network. We studied the effect of the compression services on a variety of data sets and conducted experiments on a high-performance computing cluster.

DE IO; data structure; data management; high performance
AB A library called HIO has been developed for large-scale multi-physics simulations, based on the UDM library [10]. The goal of the library is to provide sustainable, interoperable, efficient, scalable, and convenient tools for parallel IO and data management for high-level data structures in applications, and to provide tools for the connection between applications. The high-level data structures include one-and multi-dimensional arrays, structured meshes, unstructured meshes, and the meshes generated through adaptive mesh refinement. The IO mechanism can be collective and non-collective. The data objects suitable for the library could be either large or small data sets. Even for small data sets, the IO performance is close to one of MPI-IO performance.

AB Modern scientific datasets present numerous data management and analysis challenges. State-of-the-art index and query technologies such as FastBit can significantly improve accesses to these datasets by augmenting the user data with indexes and other secondary information. However, a challenge is that the indexes assume the relational data model but the scientific data generally follows the array data model. To match the two data models, we design a generic mapping mechanism and implement an efficient input and output interface for reading and writing the data and their corresponding indexes. To take advantage of the emerging many-core architectures, we also develop a parallel strategy for indexing using threading technology. This approach complements our on-going MPI-based parallelization efforts.
We demonstrate the flexibility of our software by applying it to two of the most commonly used scientific data formats, HDF5 and NetCDF. We present two case studies using data from a particle accelerator model and a global climate model. We also conducted a detailed performance study using these scientific datasets. The results show that FastQuery speeds up the query time by a factor of 2.5x to 50x, and it reduces the indexing time by a factor of 16 on 24 cores.

DE Parallel I/O; checkpointing; fault tolerance; Blue Gene/P
AB As the number of processors increases to hundreds of thousands in parallel computer architectures, the failure probability rises correspondingly, making fault tolerance a highly important and challenging task. Application-level checkpointing is one of the most popular techniques to proactively deal with unexpected failures because of its portability and flexibility. During the checkpoint phase, the local states of the computation spread across thousands of processors are saved to stable storage. Unfortunately, this approach results in heavy I/O load and can cause an I/O bottleneck in a massively parallel system. In this paper, we examine application-level checkpointing for a massively parallel electromagnetic solver system called NekCEM on the IBM Blue Gene/P at Argonne National Laboratory. We discuss an application-level, two-phase I/O approach, called "reduced-blocking I/O" (rbIO), and a tuned MPI-IO collective approach (coIO), and we demonstrate their performance advantage over the "1 POSIX file per processor" approach. Our study shows that rbIO and coIO result in 100x improvement over previous checkpointing approaches on up to 65,536 processors of the Blue Gene/P using the GPFS. Our study also demonstrates a 25x production performance improvement for NekCEM. We show how to optimize parameter settings for those parallel I/O approaches and to verify results by I/O profilings. In particular, we examine the performance advantage of rbIO and demonstrate the potential benefits of this approach over the traditional MPI-IO routine, coIO.

DE Process Affinity; Locality; NUMA; MPI; Resource Management
AB High Performance Computing (HPC) systems are composed of servers containing an ever-increasing number of cores. With such high processor core counts, non-uniform memory access (NUMA) architectures are almost universally used to reduce inter-processor and memory communication bottlenecks by distributing processors and memory throughout a server-internal networking topology. Application studies have shown that the tuning of processes placement in a server's NUMA networking topology to the application can have a dramatic impact on performance. The performance implications are magnified when running a parallel job across multiple server nodes, especially with large scale HPC applications.
This paper presents the Locality-Aware Mapping Algorithm (LAMA) for distributing the individual processes of a parallel application across processing resources in an HPC system, paying particular attention to the internal server NUMA topologies. The algorithm is able to support both homogeneous and heterogeneous hardware systems, and dynamically adapts to the available hardware and user-specified process layout at run-time. As implemented in Open MPI, the LAMA provides 362,880 mapping permutations and is able to naturally scale out to additional hardware resources as they become available in future architectures.

DE performance impact; resource management; delayed failure repairing
AB With the fast improvement in technology, we are now moving toward exascale computing. Many experts predict that exascale computers will have millions of nodes, billions of threads of execution, hundreds of petabytes of inner memory and exabytes of persistent storage. For systems of such a scale, frequent failures are becoming a serious concern. One of the most important reasons is that in a large-scale system it is hard to detect failures. As a result, failure repair may take substantial time. In this paper, we investigate the effect of delayed repairing on two popular types of high-performance computing systems: IBM Blue Gene/P and general cluster. We analyze how delayed failure repairing will affect the performance of jobs when some computing units are at fault but not fixed in time. Our study is based on real workload traces and RAS logs collected from production supercomputing systems. Our Trace-based simulations indicate that fast failure detection and recovery is essential for moving towards petascale and beyond computing.

AB We report our effort in engineering a high performance remote method invocation (RMI) mechanism for the Common Component Architecture (CCA). This mechanism provides a highly efficient and easy-to-use mechanism for distributed computing in CCA, enabling CCA applications to effectively leverage parallel systems to accelerate computations. This work is built on the previous work of Babel RMI. Babel is a high performance language interoperability tool that is used in CCA for scientific application writers to share, reuse, and compose applications from software components written in different programming languages. Babel provides a transparent and flexible RMI framework for distributed computing. However, the existing Babel RMI implementation is built on top of TCP and does not provide the level of performance required to distribute fine-grained tasks. We observed that the main reason the TCP based RMI does not perform well is because it does not utilize the high performance interconnect hardware on a cluster efficiently. We have implemented a high performance RMI protocol, HPCRMI. HPCRMI achieves low latency by building on top of a low-level portable communication library, Aggregated Remote Message Copy Interface (ARMCI), and minimizing communication for each RMI call. Our design allows a RMI operation to be completed by only two RDMA operations. We also aggressively optimize our system to reduce copying. In this paper, we discuss the design and our experimental evaluation of this protocol. Our experimental results show that our protocol can improve RMI performance by an order of magnitude.

ID CONSISTENCY ANALYSIS; SYSTEMS
AB In this paper we apply a state-of-the-art algorithm for subspace identification of linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems to identify the coupled dynamics of the drive-train and the edgewise bending motion of the rotor blades of three-bladed wind turbines. These dynamics are varying with the rotor speed. The identification algorithm uses a factorization which makes it possible to form predictors based on past inputs, outputs, and the known rotor speed. The predictors contain the LPV equivalent of the Markov parameters. Using the predictors, ideas from Predictor Based Subspace IDentification (PBSID) were developed to estimate the state sequence from which the LPV system matrices can be constructed. The algorithm was applied not only to synthetic data generated by a computer simulation of a reference wind turbine, but also to data measured from the CART3 research wind turbine at the National Wind Technology Center of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). This paper demonstrates that the linear time-varying behavior of the aeroelastic dynamics of the wind turbine rotor can be captured in an LPV model identified with measured input-output data.

AB The swing equations for conventional and renewable generators connected to the electric power grid and microgrids are developed. Simple diesel and wind turbine generators with Unified Power Flow Control (UPFC) are used as an example. The swing equations for a renewable generator and conventional generators in an islanded microgrid are formulated as a natural Hamiltonian system with externally applied non-conservative forces. A two-step process referred to as Hamiltonian Surface Shaping and Power Flow Control (HSSPFC) is used to analyze and design feedback controllers for the renewable generator and islanded microgrid systems. This paper presents the analysis and design of nonlinear controller examples that include a two-machine infinite bus system with UPFC's in an islanded microgrid and applied to simplified diesel and wind turbine generators connected to the grid. The needed power and energy storage/charging responses are also determined. Necessary and sufficient conditions for stability of renewable generators systems are determined based on the concepts of Hamiltonian systems, power flow, exergy (the maximum work that can be extracted from an energy flow) rate, and entropy rate.

AB Developing requirements for renewable power sources that are able to meet specified load needs is the motivation for this work. The approach used here is to formulate energy storage as an optimal control problem. Alternative objective functions are applied to a tutorial LC circuit yielding insight into the relationship between the supply characteristics and the rate of storage. Given a specified storage target and time, several objective functions are considered. These are used to form a spectrum of voltage source time histories that minimize the objective functions while achieving the storage target. Although the system being considered is linear, the complexity of the solutions arises due to the nonlinearity of the objective functions employed. The resulting source characteristics provide insight into desirable renewable source characteristics. More importantly, this work describes a methodology for addressing more complex renewable integration designs using an optimal control approach.

AB Microgrids are envisioned to contain several interconnected sources supplying power to multiple loads. While many technologies may be used for generation, such as fossil fuels or renewables, there will likely be some amount of storage capacity. Efficient use of the stored energy is the motivation for this work. This paper focuses on developing closed loop control laws that define optimal load forms. Optimal will be defined as a combination of energy dissipation rate and power flow. In general, the control laws are nonlinear and thus the optimal load forms are nonlinear functions of the states of the network. A tutorial LC circuit is used to illustrate the method for developing the optimal load that efficiently uses the available stored energy.

ID WIND TURBINES
AB In this paper, the swing equations for renewable generators are formulated as a natural Hamiltonian system with externally applied non-conservative forces. A two-step process referred to as Hamiltonian Surface Shaping and Power Flow Control (HSSPFC) is used to analyze and design feedback controllers for the renewable generator system. The results of this research include the determination of the required performance of a proposed Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS)/storage device, such as a Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC), to enable the maximum power output of a wind turbine while meeting the power system constraints on frequency and phase. The UPFC is required to operate as both a generator and load (energy storage) on the power system in this design. Necessary and sufficient conditions for stability of renewable generator systems are determined based on the concepts of Hamiltonian systems, power flow, exergy (the maximum work that can be extracted from an energy flow) rate, and entropy rate. An illustrative example demonstrates this HSSPFC methodology. It includes a 600 kW wind turbine, variable speed variable pitch configuration. The wind turbine is operated with a turbulent wind profile for below-rated wind power conditions. The wind turbine is connected in series through a UPFC to the infinite bus. Numerical simulation cases are reviewed that best demonstrate the stability and performance of HSSPFC as applied to a renewable energy system.

AB The current LANSCE LLRF system is an analog PI Feedback control system which achieves amplitude and phase error of 1% and 1 degree respectively. The feedback system receives cavity amplitude and phase, crosstalk between the amplitude and phase paths is significant. We propose an In-phase (I) and Quadrature (Q) based feedback control system which easily decouples the crosstalk of the I and Q channels. A PI feedback controller is implemented with an Altera Stratix III FPGA. The control system is modeled with DSP Builder which automatically generates HDL. Altera SOPC Builder is used for the hardware integration of the DSP Builder model, memories, peripherals, and 32 bit NIOS II embedded processor. The NIOS II processor communicates with the host computer via Ethernet, uploads data, computes parameters, and downloads parameters. The network support of the design makes it possible to set and tune the control system parameters on-line and to conduct the calibration of the whole RF system easily. The proposed control system is successfully tested with a LANSCE sided-coupled linear accelerator at 720kw.

ID CONDUCTIVITY; RESISTIVITY; FILMS
AB As interconnect dimensions decrease, the resistivity of copper increases dramatically because of electron scattering from surfaces, impurities, and grain boundaries (GBs), and threatens to stymie continued device scaling. Here we directly measure individual GB resistances in copper nanowires with a one-to-one correspondence to the GB structure. The resistance of high symmetry coincidence GBs is then calculated using a first-principle method. GB resistance is found to differ by orders of magnitude between different types of GB, with random GBs showing an intrinsically higher resistance compared to coincidence GBs.

AB Simplified wire-type models for split-ring resonators (SRRs), both in free-space and above a dielectric half-space, are developed. The gap of the SRR in the wire model is accurately represented by including a lumped load which is the difference between the actual gap fringe capacitance and the capacitance inherent in the code wire kernel for a delta gap voltage source. The SRR arms are represented by generalized thin wires that have both an electric equivalent radius (for the rectangular conductor resting on a dielectric substrate) and a magnetic equivalent radius (for a rectangular conductor in free space, since the substrate is assumed to be nonmagnetic). In addition, an impedance per unit length (due to finite penetration of the fields into the metal) enters a local transmission line part of the generalized thin-wire algorithm. The results from the thin-wire subcell model are compared to full wave simulations of the arrays of SRR's. The full wave simulations require tens of thousands of unknowns to resolve the field penetration into the finite conductors for a single SRR, whereas the thin-wire model has good accuracy with only tens of unknowns.

ID DIPOLE ANTENNAS; RADIATION Q; BOUNDS; LIMITS
AB We present a new study of an electrically small spherical antenna with Q approaching the lower bound. The structure is a natural successor to earlier work by some of the present authors [1] and is designed to excite the TM10 spherical mode for minimum Q. This new topology consists of meanderline arms entirely conformal to a spherical surface, facilitated by a precise conformal printing technique. Measurements of some antenna prototypes are presented in [2] but without a complete discussion of the electromagnetic design considerations. Here, we discuss details of the design parameters, material choices and a technique for mitigating the excitation of higher order modes which disrupt the impedance behavior of the structure. The presentation will include measured results of antennas at several different electrical sizes printed on both the concave and convex surface of a hemisphere.

ID MODEL
AB As early as 2014, wireless network operators' spectral capacity will be overwhelmed by the demand brought on by new devices and applications. To augment capacity and meet this demand, operators may choose to deploy a Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) overlay. The signaling and functionality required by such an overlay have not yet been fully considered in the architecture of the planned Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE+) networks. This paper presents a Spectrum Accountability framework to be integrated into LTE+ architectures, defining specific element functionality, protocol interfaces, and signaling flow diagrams required to enforce the rights and responsibilities of primary and secondary users. We also quantify, through simulation, the benefits of using DSA channels to augment capacity. The framework proposed here may serve as a guide in the development of future LTE+ network standards that account for DSA.

AB We analyze Linear Programming (LP) decoding of graphical binary codes operating over soft-output, symmetric and log-concave channels. We show that the error-surface, separating domain of the correct decoding from domain of the erroneous decoding, is a polytope. We formulate the problem of finding the lowest-weight pseudo-codeword as a non-convex optimization (maximization of a convex function) over a polytope, with the cost function defined by the channel and the polytope defined by the structure of the code. This formulation suggests new provably convergent heuristics for finding the lowest weight pseudo-codewords improving in quality upon previously discussed. The algorithm performance is tested on the example of the Tanner [155,64,20] code over the Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel.

AB We consider spatially coupled code ensembles over a multiple access channel. Convolutional LDPC ensembles are one instance of spatially coupled codes. It was shown recently that, for transmission over the binary erasure channel, this coupling of individual code ensembles has the effect of increasing the belief propagation threshold of the coupled ensembles to the maximum a-posteriori threshold of the underlying ensemble. In this sense, spatially coupled codes were shown to be capacity achieving. It was observed, empirically, that these codes are universal in the sense that they achieve performance close to the Shannon threshold for any general binary-input memoryless symmetric channels.
In this work we provide further evidence of the threshold saturation phenomena when transmitting over a class of multiple access channel. We show, by density evolution analysis and EXIT curves, that the belief propagation threshold of the coupled ensembles is very close to the ultimate Shannon limit.

AB We present and study linear programming based detectors for two-dimensional intersymbol interference channels. Interesting instances of two-dimensional intersymbol interference channels are magnetic storage, optical storage and Wyner's cellular network model.
We show that the optimal maximum a posteriori detection in such channels lends itself to a natural linear programming based sub-optimal detector. We call this the Pairwise linear program detector. Our experiments show that the Pairwise linear program detector performs poorly. We then propose two methods to strengthen our detector. These detectors are based on systematically enhancing the Pairwise linear program. The first one, the Block linear program detector adds higher order potential functions in an exhaustive manner, as constraints, to the Pairwise linear program detector. We show by experiments that the Block linear program detector has performance close to the optimal detector. We then develop another detector by adaptively adding frustrated cycles to the Pairwise linear program detector. Empirically, this detector also has performance close to the optimal one and turns out to be less complex then the Block linear program detector.

AB We consider spatially coupled code ensembles. A particular instance are convolutional LDPC ensembles. It was recently shown that, for transmission over the memoryless binary erasure channel, this coupling increases the belief propagation threshold of the ensemble to the maximum a-posteriori threshold of the underlying component ensemble. This paved the way for a new class of capacity achieving low-density parity check codes. It was also shown empirically that the same threshold saturation occurs when we consider transmission over general binary input memoryless channels.
In this work, we report on empirical evidence which suggests that the same phenomenon also occurs when transmission takes place over a class of channels with memory. This is confirmed both by simulations as well as by computing EXIT curves.

AB Systems with hardware accelerators speedup applications by offloading certain compute operations that can run faster on accelerators. Thus, it is not surprising that many of top500 supercomputers use accelerators. However, in addition to procurement cost, significant programming and porting effort is required to realize the potential benefit of such accelerators. Hence, before building such a system it is prudent to answer the question 'what is the projected performance benefit from accelerators for workloads of interest?' We address this question by way of a performance-modeling framework, which predicts realizable application performance on accelerators speedily and accurately without going to the considerable effort of porting and tuning.

AB A compact (R-0 similar to 1.2-1.3m), low aspect ratio, low-Q (< 3) Fusion Nuclear Science Facility (FNSF) was recently assessed to provide a fully integrated, D-T-fueled, continuously driven plasma, volumetric nuclear environment of copious neutrons. This environment would be used, for the first time, to carry out discovery-driven research in fusion nuclear science and materials, in parallel with and complementary to ITER. This research would aim to test, discover, and understand new nuclear-nonnuclear synergistic interactions involving plasma material interactions, neutron material interactions, tritium fuel breeding and transport, and power extraction, and innovate and develop solutions for DEMO components. This facility properly designed could provide, initially using conservative JET-level D-T plasmas in Hot-Ion H-Mode, and an outboard fusion neutron flux of similar to 0.33 MW/m(2). If the research, facility operation, and component solutions were successful, the performance could be raised to 1 MW/m(2) (fusion power similar to 76 MW) by reaching for twice the JET plasma pressure and Q. Stable high-safety factor q and beta plasmas would be chosen to minimize plasma-induced disruptions, and deliver reliably a neutron fluence of 1 MWyr/m(2), if duty factors of similar to 10% (accumulated plasma burn time in a year) can be achieved. Such duty factors would therefore require time-efficient installation and replacement of all components using remote handling (RH). These in turn would require RH-compatible modular designs for all internal components, a single-turn toroidal field coil center-post, and placement of support structures and vacuum seal welds behind the internal and shielding components. RH-enabled hot-cell laboratories would enable preparation and investigations of damages of the internal test components. The scientific and technical basis for such an FNSF, and the research needed in the next decade to manage the potential risks in its research capabilities, will be described.

AB The development of xTCA for Physics standard extensions began in June 2009 with the formation of hardware and software technical subcommittees under the PICMG industry consortium. This was a new experiment in standards collaboration since up to this time labs had developed standards without members from industry and PICMG membership consisted only of companies supporting telecom and some military applications. Since then the physics hardware subcommittee, formally known as 10, Synchronization and Timing has completed two specifications which have been approved with a third guideline document in preparation; while the software subcommittee known as Software Architectures and Protocols has worked on a broad road map of guidelines aimed at increasing the level of compatibility (interoperability) between similar functional modules designed by different laboratories or companies. The subcommittees are currently supported by 9 labs that have joined PICMG plus approximately 40 companies that joined the subcommittees. This paper reviews specific progress of standards and guidelines to date; briefly summarizes some of the key infrastructure product developments made by the lab-industry collaboration; and lists examples of new lab initiatives underway to test the standards against a range of applications. It also discusses the key motivations, challenges and strategies involved in bringing a new standard into broad usage so as to reap maximum benefits to both the collaborating laboratories and supporting industries.

AB We are developing a large area thick continuous LYSO-solid state photomultiplier (SSPM) array based PET detectors to exploit the potential applications in clinical and small volume imaging studies. The PET detector design for clinical applications consists of a 47x47x14 mm(3) slab of LYSO crystal sandwiched between two 8x8 element SSPM arrays with 5x5 mm(2) elements. The detector module for higher resolution, small volume imaging studies consists of a thin sheet similar to 5-10mm of LYSO scintillator sandwiched between two 12x12 element SSPM arrays with 1.5x1.5 mm(2) elements. Towards addressing this goal, here we present the construction and evaluation of 8x8 element SSPM array with each element being 5mm x 5mm in size. The SSPM array with an imaging area of 47x47 mm(2) was created by close-tiling RMD's 2x2 array of 5x5 mm(2) SSPM chips in a 4x4 format. Pixel uniformity, energy resolution and timing resolution for individual pixels in the 8x8 array was studied by coupling a single LYSO crystal measuring 3x3x15 mm(3) to each SSPM pixel in the array. The measured photopeak amplitude for 511 keV gamma-rays varied from 66 to 100 over the array. The energy resolution for all pixels in the array ranged from 10% to 12.5% (FWHM). The measured timing resolution for all pixels was in 700ps to 800ps range. Continuous crystal based PET module was also built by coupling a 47x47x8 mm(3) slab of polished LYSO crystal to the 8x8 SSPM array. The energy resolution measured in the center of the crystal was 16.4% (FWHM) and at the edge it was 16.8% (FWHM). The coincidence timing resolution measured against LYSO-PMT detector was 1.1ns in the center and 1.3ns at the edge of the crystal. We also discuss the performance of a monolithic 6x6 SSPM array with each element 1.5mm x 1.5mm for smaller volume, higher resolution PET detectors. The energy resolution for all pixels in the array ranged from 13% to 15%. The measured timing resolution for all pixels was in the range of 500ps to 550ps.

AB In recent years the transmission network expansion planning problem (TNEP) has become increasingly complex. As the TNEP is a non-linear and non-convex optimization problem, researchers have traditionally focused on approximate models of power flows to solve the TNEP. Existing approaches are often tightly coupled to the approximation choice. Until recently these approximations have produced results that are straight-forward to adapt to the more complex (real) problem. However, the power grid is evolving towards a state where the adaptations are no longer easy (e. g. large amounts of limited control, renewable generation) and necessitates new approaches. Recent work on deterministic Discrepancy Bounded Local Search (DBLS) has shown it to be quite effective in addressing this question. DBLS encapsulates the complexity of power flow modeling in a black box that may be queried for information about the quality of proposed expansions. In this paper, we propose a randomization strategy that builds on DBLS and dramatically increases the computational efficiency of the algorithm.

AB Demand response is playing an increasingly important role in smart grid research today. Technologies that control building equipment and appliances using signals such as real-time prices are making their way into our lives. But the behavior of load both affects and is affected by load control strategies that are designed to support the electric grid. This paper explores the natural behavior of electric load, how it is affected by various load control strategies and what the implications are for concepts such as using load control to support the integration of renewable energy resources.

DE Topology Change; Inter-area Modes; Mode Shape; Small Signal Stability
AB The topology of a power grid network is a piece of critical information for power grid operations. Different power grid topologies can change grid characteristics, inter-area oscillation modes, mode shapes, and even the robustness of the power system. This paper presents some preliminary study results, based on an approved WECC operating case and a modified low damping WECC system, to show the impact of topology changes resulting from N-1 contingencies on power system modes and mode shapes. The results show that topology changes can have very different impact on modal properties in a power system: some result in an unstable situation, while others can improve small signal stability. For the former, the studies show about a 4.5% damping reduction, so a 5% damping margin would be required to ensure the system can sustain the contingencies. For the latter, those topology changes could be used as a control method to improve small signal stability. Mode shapes normally do not change when there is an N-1 topology change. These observations suggest that the inclusion of topological information is useful for improving the accuracy and effectiveness of power system control schemes.

ID EXPERT-SYSTEM; RESTORATION
AB This paper studies the Power System Stochastic Storage Problem (PSSSP), a novel application in power restoration which consists of deciding how to store power system components throughout a populated area to maximize the amount of power served after disaster restoration. The paper proposes an exact mixed-integer formulation for the linearized DC power flow model and a general column-generation approach. Both formulations were evaluated experimentally on real-life benchmarks. The results show that the column-generation algorithm produces near-optimal solutions quickly and produces orders of magnitude speedups over the exact formulation for large benchmarks. Moreover, both the exact and the column-generation formulations produce significant improvements over a greedy approach and hence should yield significant benefits in practice.

ID GENERATION; SECURITY
AB With the advent of wind power generation on worldwide power systems, many operators and researchers are analyzing the impacts that higher future amounts may have on system operations. Many of the tools are analyzing longer term impacts on the steady-state operations of power systems and are primarily using cost as a metric. They are also using tools that are often inflexible to accommodating different market designs or operational structures. In this paper a model was developed to mimic operator behavior using a combination of security-constrained unit commitment, security-constrained economic dispatch, and automatic generation control programs. New metrics are used to compare reliability in terms of energy imbalance for different systems or different market and operational structures at very high time resolution. Finally an example application of the tool and results for a test system are shown.

AB Accurate representation of wind power plants (WPP) in both offline and online power system stability studies has gained importance because of the rapid increase in installation of wind generation around the world. However, because increases in accuracy reduce computational efficiency, reduced WPP representation is preferred. To improve accuracy of the reduced WPP model, other authors have proposed changes in structure of the reduced model for large WPPs. Another alternative is model validation and calibration.
In this paper, we compare accuracy improvements brought by changes in model structure with accuracy improvements brought by validation and calibration of the reduced WPP model with minimum changes in structure. We illustrate our findings using a 168-machine WPP connected to the IEEE 39-bus test system. The parameters of the reduced WPP model are either calculated with current equivalencing techniques or validated and calibrated against a more accurate model. The changes in structure of the reduced model are one-machine or two-machine reduced models connected with a one-line or two-line collector equivalent. We show that the most accurate response is obtained by calibrating the parameters of the reduced model with minimum changes in structure.

Plant Representation
AB The need for generic, standard, non-proprietary models for wind power plants continues to be the subject of much discussion and debate. From a technical point of view, the representation of the often complex dynamic behavior of modern wind power plants is not trivial. However, system planners and compliance organizations continue to struggle with the process deficiencies associated with the black-box and proprietary nature of manufacturer-specific models. For several years, the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) has championed the development of generic models for wind power plant models, and the progress to date is reported in this document. Recently, other organizations including the International Electromechanical Commission (IEC), manufacturers, software developers, and even utilities have been pursuing similar technical goals. It is anticipated that, through the collective efforts of these stakeholders, generic models will fulfill a much needed gap. This paper reports on the progress made to-date within the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) regarding the development of generic models suitable for representing wind power plants in typical transmission planning studies. The manuscript address technical issues associated with the representation of wind turbine generators for load flow and transient stability analyses. Current capabilities and envisioned enhancements to existing models are also discussed.

AB Demand response and dynamic pricing programs are expected to play increasing roles in the modern smart grid environment. While direct load control of end-use loads has existed for decades, price driven response programs are only beginning to be explored at the distribution level. These programs utilize a price signal as a means to control demand. Active markets allow customers to respond to fluctuations in wholesale electrical costs, but may not allow the utility to control demand. Transactive markets, utilizing distributed controllers and a centralized auction, can be used to create an interactive system which can limit demand at key times on a distribution system, decreasing congestion. With the current proliferation of computing and communication resources, the ability now exists to create transactive demand response programs at the residential level. With the combination of automated bidding and response strategies, coupled with education programs and customer response, emerging demand response programs have the ability to reduce utility demand and congestion in a more controlled manner. This paper will explore the effects of a residential double-auction market, utilizing transactive controllers, on the operation of an electric power distribution system.

ID STATISTICAL-ANALYSIS
AB Wind forecasting is an important consideration in integrating large amounts of wind power into the electricity grid. The wind power forecast error distribution assumed can have a large impact on the confidence intervals produced in wind power forecasting. In this work we examine the shape of the persistence model error distribution for ten different wind plants in the ERCOT system over multiple timescales. Comparisons are made between the experimental distribution shape and that of the normal distribution. The shape of the distribution is found to change significantly with the length of the forecasting timescale. The Cauchy distribution is proposed as a model distribution for the forecast errors and model parameters are fitted. Finally, the differences in confidence intervals obtained using the Cauchy distribution and the normal distribution are compared.

AB Increasing fault current contribution from wind farms into the utility network presents new engineering challenges for utility protection engineers. Traditionally, sequence component networks are used to calculate fault currents for relay settings, but there is at present uncertainty on the appropriate sequence component models of the various wind generator types for inclusion into protection calculation software. This paper develops a sequence component model for Type I (cage rotor induction generators) wind generators. Time-domain transient simulations of wind turbine-generator fault currents are run using several popular power system simulation packages, including PSCAD/EMTDC, EMTP-RV, and SimPowerSystems; these results are compared with the calculations based on the sequence network circuits, and found to have good agreement.

DE Contingency Analysis; Energy Management System; Parallel Computing;

AB Contingency analysis is a key function in control centers to assess the impact of various combinations of power system component failures based on state estimates. Today's practice analyzes only a limited set of contingency cases and lacks of capabilities in presenting the results in a way that is easy to be understood by grid operators in a short time frame of seconds to minutes. This limits the ability to operate the power grid for better reliability and efficiency. Faster analysis of more cases is required to safely and reliably operate today's power grids which have a less margin and more intermittent renewable energy sources. This paper explores the advancements in high performance computing and visual analytics for improving the computational speed and the information representation in contingency analysis. A framework of advanced contingency analysis is proposed. Case studies using the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) system are presented to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed framework. Comparative assessment by real power grid operators has been performed as part of a WECC operator training class. The assessment results demonstrate the validity of the proposed contingency analysis and visualization approach.

AB A method is developed to generate optimal bid schedules for a hybrid energy storage system participating in both energy and regulation service markets. The hybrid energy storage system includes a fast-response component, such as a flywheel or battery, and a slow response component, such as a pumped-hydro or a conventional generator. This paper describes the objective function and constraints of the cross-market optimization problem. A genetic algorithm is used to solve the problem with a nonlinear penalty curve applied to the energy constraints. A single market optimization method based on priority search is used as a baseline. The results show that the cross-market optimization can improve revenue of the energy storage system by 6.9% over the baseline. Although the method was applied to a hybrid energy storage system, it can be generalized to any energy storage systems.

DE Hybrid energy storage system; coordinated control; regulation service;
fast energy storage unit; slow unit; wear and tear
AB Energy storage is an essential element of future power systems to integrate high level of variable renewable energy resources. Earlier studies have found that energy storage can compensate for the stochastic nature of intermittent energy sources by absorbing the excessive energy when generation exceeds predicted levels and providing it back to the grid when generation levels fall short. However, earlier economic studies have shown that battery energy storage and flywheel energy storage is not economically competitive comparing to traditional generation units. An optimal control algorithm has been developed to coordinate the slow unit (having respond time greater than 1 minute) and fast energy storage unit (having response time less than 1 minute) to maximize the revenue (or minimize the total cost) of the hybrid energy storage system. The fast energy storage unit, (which can be a flywheel or battery bank) is tuned to pick up the fluctuations of regulation signal while the slow unit, (which can be a traditional generation unit or slow energy storage system) is adjusted less than once per hour to provide regulation service. Simulation models of hydro, combined cycle, and flywheel unit have been developed and implemented in MATLAB. Extensive simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the control algorithm. The value of the algorithm has been shown from power plant wear and tear aspect and reducing system balancing reserve aspect.

To evaluate various renewable energy source conditions, a prototypical circuit is evaluated in Detroit, Los Angeles, and Orlando locations for both summer and winter loading conditions. Various load adoption scenarios are simulated by randomly assigning specified loading to target customer classes on the circuit.

AB Large-scale renewable resources and novel smart-grid technologies continue to increase the complexity of power systems. As power systems continue to become more complex, accurate modeling for planning and operation becomes a necessity. Inaccurate system models would result in an unreliable assessment of system security conditions and could cause large-scale blackouts. This motivates the need for model parameter calibration, since some or all of the model parameters could either be unknown or inaccurate. In this paper, the extended Kalman filter is used to calibrate the parameters of a multi-machine power system in the presence of faults. The calibration performance is tested under varying fault locations, parameter errors, and measurement noise giving an insight into how many generators and which generators could be difficult to calibrate.

AB This paper investigates the possibility of providing aggregated regulation services with small loads, such as water heaters or air conditioners. A direct-load control algorithm is presented to aggregate the water heater load for the purpose of regulation. A dual-element electric water heater model is developed, which accounts for both thermal dynamics and users' water consumption. A realistic regulation signal was used to evaluate the number of water heaters needed and the operational characteristics of a water heater when providing 2-MW regulation service. Modeling results suggest that approximately 33,000 water heaters are needed to provide a 2-MW regulation service 24 hours a day. However, if water heaters only provide regulation from 6:00 to 24:00, approximately 20,000 will be needed. Because the control algorithm has considered the thermal setting of the water heater, customer comfort is maintained. Therefore, the aggregated regulation service provided by water heater loads can become a major source of revenue for load-serving entities when the smart grid enables the direct load control.

AB The Electrical Network Frequency (ENF) criterion is a novel method for digital audio recording authentication in the field of forensic science. Both an accurate frequency estimation method and a reliable frequency reference database are the key requirements for this technique. This paper briefly introduces the Frequency Monitoring Network (FNET) at UTK and analyzes the frequency characteristics of the four North American interconnections. Wide-area frequency measurements in each interconnection conform to the Gaussian distribution, but with slightly varied parameters. Short-time Fourier transform (STFT) is adopted to estimate the power system frequency signal embedded in audio files, and a procedure for using the ENF criterion, ranging from signal preprocessing to frequency estimation and frequency data matching, is proposed and then tested by two cases. Results show that the STFT can be used as an accurate ENF extraction method. Furthermore, factors which influence the accuracy of frequency estimation, such as the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the recording hardware, are also discussed.

AB This paper presents the modeling approach, methodologies, and initial results of setting up a multi-layer, hierarchical information management system (IMS) for the smart grid. The IMS allows its users to analyze the data collected by multiple control and communication networks to characterize the states of the smart grid. Abnormal, corrupted, or erroneous measurement data and outliers are detected and analyzed to identify whether they are caused by random equipment failures, human error, or tampering. Data collected from different information networks are crosschecked for data integrity based on redundancy, dependency, correlation, or cross-correlations, which reveal the interdependency between data sets. A hierarchically structured reasoning mechanism is used to rank possible causes of an event to enable system operators to proactively respond or provide mitigation recommendations to remove or neutralize the threats. The model satisfactorily identifies the cause of an event and significantly reduces the need to process myriads of data.

AB This paper presents a smart distribution grid testbed to test or compare designs of integrated information management systems (I2MSs). An I2MS extracts and synthesizes information from a wide range of data sources to detect abnormal system behaviors, identify possible causes, assess the system status, and provide grid operators with response suggestions. The objective of the testbed is to provide a modeling environment with sufficient data sources for the I2MS design. The testbed includes five information layers and a physical layer; it generates multi-layer chronological data based on actual measurement playbacks or simulated data sets produced by the physical layer. The testbed models random hardware failures, human errors, extreme weather events, and deliberate tampering attempts to allow users to evaluate the performance of different I2MS designs. Initial results of I2MS performance tests showed that the testbed created a close-to-real-world environment that allowed key performance metrics of the I2MS to be evaluated.

AB This paper investigates the control strategies for distributed energy resources (DERs), including diesel generators, energy storage and demand response (DR), to achieve high penetration of wind energy in a rural microgrid. In such a system, it could be both economical and environmentally friendly to harness wind power and displace the consumption of fossil fuels. In the study, energy storage and DR are used to contain frequency deviations and reduce diesel generators' movement, while maximizing the use of wind energy. Detailed dynamic models of DERs and household loads are built to simulate the microgrid. Combinations of centralized (direct control) and decentralized (autonomous response) control strategies on DERs are implemented. The control capabilities of each type of DERs are also explored under different scenarios. The system responses under high wind speeds and to large disturbances are tested. Results show that coordinated DR and energy storage can effectively compensate for wind variability as well as provide desired frequency response. This consequently reduces the movements of diesel generators and thereby the amount of mechanical stress.

AB The impact of integrating 20% of renewable resources, primarily wind and solar, on regulation and load following requirements within the California Independent System Operator (CAISO)'s Balancing Authority Area is analyzed in detail. The analysis entails a stochastic process that employs Monte Carlo simulations and uses a random number generator to generate forecast errors over multiple iterations. Load and wind forecast errors are simulated based on the statistical characteristics (standard deviation and autocorrelation) of actual historical forecast error data. A refined persistence model is used to simulate real-time solar forecast errors. Clearness Index (CI) is used in the simulation of hour-ahead and real-time solar forecast errors. Various aspects of the CAISO operating practices and market timelines are modeled in detail from hour-ahead to real-time dispatch to provide realistic intra-hour operational requirements. Also, statistical interactions of load, wind and solar generation in a minute-to-minute interval are modeled with sufficient details to evaluate the regulation and load following capacity, ramp rate and ramp duration requirements in the 2012 timeframe. A comparison of these requirements is made between 2006 and 2012.

AB Contemporary power systems face uncertainties coming from multiple sources, including forecast errors of load, wind and solar generation, uninstructed deviation and forced outage of traditional generators, and unscheduled loss of transmission lines. With increasing amounts of wind and solar generation being integrated into the system, these uncertainties have been growing significantly. It is critically important to build the knowledge of major sources of uncertainties, learn how to model them, and then incorporate this information into decision-making processes and power system operations, for better reliability and efficiency. This paper gives a comprehensive overview on the sources of uncertainties in power systems, their important characteristics and models, and approaches for integrating uncertainty information into system operations. It is primarily based on previous works conducted at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL).

DE Blackouts; cascading outages; critical events corridors; extreme events;
power system planning; power system reliability
AB Massive blackouts of electrical power systems over the past decade has focused increasing attention to cascading events that may lead to widespread network collapses. It is important to be able to identify places in the system where the cascading events are most likely or/and lead to the most severe consequences. Based on this information, transmission planning decisions can be made that minimize the risk of blackouts in the most efficient way. This paper addresses all these issues. First, it outlines a method to simulate cascading failures resulting from multiple extreme initiating events. The method is currently confined to analyzing steady state power-system responses to extreme events and uses a simplified model of protection system. The second goal is to determine parts of the network vulnerable cascading failures. The hypothesis of critical events corridors is proposed to represent repeating sequential outages that can occur in the system for multiple initiating events. The new concept helps to identify system reinforcements that planners could engineer in order to "break" the critical events sequences and therefore lessen the likelihood and consequences of cascading outages. This hypothesis has been successfully validated with a California power system model.

AB Demand response (DR) is becoming an increasingly important part of power grid planning and operation. The advent of the Smart Grid, which mandates its use, further motivates selection and development of suitable software protocols to enable DR functionality. The OpenADR protocol has been developed and is being standardized to serve this goal. We believe that the development of a distributable, open source implementation of OpenADR will benefit this effort and motivate critical evaluation of its capabilities, by the wider community, for providing wide-scale DR services.

DE Wind energy; balancing area; wind integration
AB During the past few years, there has been significant interest in alternative ways to manage power systems over a larger effective electrical footprint. Large regional transmission organizations in the Eastern Interconnection have effectively consolidated balancing areas, achieving significant economies of scale that result in a reduction in required reserves. Conversely, in the Western Interconnection there are many balancing areas, which will result in challenges if there is significant wind and solar energy development in the region. A recent proposal to the Western Electricity Coordinating Council suggests a regional energy imbalance service (EIS). To evaluate this EIS, a number of analyses are in process or are planned. This paper describes one part of an analysis of the EIS's implication on operating reserves under several alternative scenarios of the market footprint and participation. We improve on the operating reserves method utilized in the Eastern Wind Integration and Transmission Study and apply this modified approach to data from the Western Wind and Solar Integration Study.

ID WIND TURBINES; SYSTEMS
AB Worldwide interest in the deployment of photovoltaic generation (PV) is rapidly increasing. Operating experience with large PV plants, however, demonstrates that large, rapid changes in the output of PV plants are possible. Early studies of PV grid impacts suggested that short-term variability could be a potential limiting factor in deploying PV. Many of these early studies, however, lacked high-quality data from multiple sites to assess the costs and impacts of increasing PV penetration. As is well known for wind, accounting for the potential for geographic diversity can significantly reduce the magnitude of extreme changes in aggregated PV output, the resources required to accommodate that variability, and the potential costs of managing variability. We use measured 1-min solar insolation for 23 time-synchronized sites in the Southern Great Plains network of the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement program and wind speed data from 10 sites in the same network to characterize the variability of PV with different degrees of geographic diversity and to compare the variability of PV to the variability of similarly sited wind. We find in our analysis of PV and wind plants similarly sited in a 5 X 5 grid with 50 km spacing that the variability of PV is only slightly more than the variability of wind on time scales of 5-15 min. Over shorter and longer time scales the level of variability is nearly identical. Finally, we use a simple approximation method to estimate the cost of carrying additional reserves to manage sub-hourly variability. We conclude that the costs of managing the short-term variability of PV are dramatically reduced by geographic diversity and are not substantially different from the costs for managing the short-term variability of similarly sited wind in this region.

AB An important aspect of wind power plant (WPP) impact studies is to evaluate short-circuit current (SCC) contribution of the plant into the transmission network under different fault conditions. This information is needed to size the circuit breakers, to establish the proper system protection, and to choose the transient suppressor in the circuits within the WPP. This task can be challenging to protection engineers due to the topology differences between different types of wind turbine generators (WTGs) and the conventional generating units.
This paper investigates the short-circuit behavior of a WPP for different types of wind turbines. The short-circuit behavior will be presented. Both the simplified models and detailed models are used in the simulations and both symmetrical faults and unsymmetrical faults are discussed.

AB An important aspect of wind power plant (WPP) impact studies is to evaluate the short-circuit (SC) current contribution of the plant into the transmission network under different fault conditions. This task can be challenging to protection engineers due to the topology differences between different types of wind turbine generators (WTGs) and the conventional generating units.
While it is important to size the circuit breaker to accommodate the available SC current, the available rating of a circuit breaker is limited. A fault current limiter (FCL) has the capability to limit the SC current, and in some cases, may be necessary to limit the SC current from a WPP to defer the replacement of a circuit breaker currently installed in the transmission line.
This paper investigates the capability of a saturable core FCL to limit the SC current of different types of WTGs. Different faults are simulated to investigate the effectiveness of the FCL to limit the SC current and to reduce transient torque during faults. Several cases will be considered to demonstrate the benefits of using FCLs in unique situations.

AB This paper describes a modeling approach that simulates the impacts of different climate change mitigation technologies on power grids for power system planning purposes. Because the historical data is less credible when new technologies are being deployed to the system, it is then critical to model them to address their impacts. This paper illustrates how to integrate modeling results obtained from different modeling tools to give a reasonable forecast of the future. Building simulation tools, distribution power grid modeling tools, and power system planning tools are used to model and aggregate the impacts from the end-use to the system level. Electricity generation, production cost, emission, and transmission congestions are used to quantify the influence of different mitigation technologies. Modeling results have shown that the cross-discipline modeling approach provided the modeler with the necessary time resolution and input details to address the variables that influence the modeling results. Different modeling issues are also addressed in the paper.

AB Open source software has a leading role in research on simulation technology for electrical power systems. Research simulators demonstrate new features for which there is nascent but growing demand not yet provided for by commercial simulators. Of particular interest is the inclusion of models of software-intensive and communication-intensive controls in simulations of power system transients. This paper describes two features of the ORNL power system simulator that help it meet this need. First is its use of discrete event simulation for all aspects of the model: control, communication, and electro-mechanical dynamics. Second is an interoperability interface that enables the ORNL power system simulator to be integrated with existing, discrete event simulators of digital communication systems.

AB this paper is a result of ongoing activity carried out by Understanding, Prediction, Mitigation and Restoration of Cascading Failures Task Force under IEEE Computer Analytical Methods Subcommittee (CAMS). The task force's previous papers [1, 2] are focused on general aspects of cascading outages such as understanding, prediction, prevention and restoration from cascading failures. This is the second of two new papers, which extend this previous work to summarize the state of the art in cascading failure risk analysis methodologies and modeling tools. The first paper reviews the state of the art in methodologies for performing risk assessment of potential cascading outages [3]. This paper describes the state of the art in cascading failure modeling tools, documenting the view of experts representing utilities, universities and consulting companies. The paper is intended to constitute a valid source of information and references about presently available tools that deal with prediction of cascading failure events. This effort involves reviewing published literature and other documentation from vendors, universities and research institutions. The assessment of cascading outages risk evaluation is in continuous evolution. Investigations to gain even better understanding and identification of cascading events are the subject of several research programs underway aimed at solving the complexity of these events that electrical utilities face today. Assessing the risk of cascading failure events in planning and operation for power transmission systems require adequate mathematical tools/software.

AB We introduce a new microscopic model of the outages in transmission power grids. This model accounts for the automatic response of the grid to load fluctuations that take place on the scale of minutes, when the optimum power flow adjustments and load shedding controls are unavailable. We describe extreme events, initiated by load fluctuations, which cause cascading failures of loads, generators and lines. Our model is quasi-static in the causal, discrete time and sequential resolution of individual failures. The model, in its simplest realization based on the Directed Current description of the power flow problem, is tested on three standard IEEE systems consisting of 30, 39 and 118 buses. Our statistical analysis suggests a straightforward classification of cascading and islanding phases in terms of the ratios between average number of removed loads, generators and links. The analysis also demonstrates sensitivity to variations in line capacities. Future research challenges in modeling and control of cascading outages over real-world power networks are discussed.

AB Inverter-based distributed energy resource (DR) systems have been designed to provide constant, close to unity power factor and thus do not provide voltage support by producing non-active power in the form of reactive power. Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has been working on control schemes to provide variable reactive power which is summarized here. The Distributed Energy Communications & Controls Laboratory (DECC) at ORNL is a unique facility for studying dynamic voltage, active power/non-active power and power factor control from inverter-based DR. DECC interfaces with the ORNL campus distribution system to provide actual power system testing. Using mathematical software tools and DECC, ORNL is developing and testing local, autonomous and adaptive controls for local voltage control and active/non-active power control for inverter-based DR. These control algorithms are being tested using a real-time software and processor system interface to our computer controls interface at DECC. The control aspects of voltage regulation and active/non-active power control using inverter-based DR are discussed and simulation and experimental results from testing are presented.

AB This paper provides a follow-up to an earlier one on impacts of distributed energy resources (DR) on distribution feeders. As DR penetration level on the feeder increases, there can be impacts to distribution system/feeder capacity, line losses, and voltage regulation. These can vary as the penetration level reaches the capacity of the distribution feeder/system or loading. The question is how high of a DR level can be accommodated without any major changes to system operation, system design and protection. Our objective for this work was to address the question of how the DR impacts vary in regards to both DR voltage regulation capability and load mix. A dynamic analysis was used to focus on the impacts of DR with and without volt/var control with different load composition on the distribution feeder. The study considered an example 10MVA distribution feeder in which two inverter-based DRs were used to provide voltage regulation. The results due to DR without voltage regulation capability are compared with DR capable of providing local (at its bus) voltage regulation. The analysis was repeated for four different feeder load compositions consisting of (1) constant power, (2) constant impedance, (3) constant current and (4) ZIP (equal combination of the previous three).

AB Conservation Voltage Reduction (CVR) is the reduction of energy consumption resulting from a reduction of the service voltage. While there have been numerous CVR deployments in North America, there has been little substantive analytic analysis of the effect; the majority of the published results are based on empirical field measurements. Due to the lack of analytic study, it is difficult to determine the impacts of CVR outside of sites that have conducted demonstration projects. This panel paper will examine a framework for the analysis of CVR using the open source software package GridLAB-D. An open source simulation environment is used to highlight the effectiveness of open source software programs and their ability to be used for evaluating multi-disciplinary smart grid technologies.

AB Due to the complex interconnected nature of power system, aggregate or reduced system is commonly used by operators and engineers for various power system studies. Transient stability studies need dynamically reduced models to include the dynamic effects of the generating units. Dynamic generator reduction is therefore an important component of power system dynamic reduction. The many different methods for generator reduction in power systems taken from the earliest available literature are discussed. This paper aims to provide an easy reference to researchers interested in exploring dynamic reduction of power systems.

AB Conservation voltage reduction (CVR) is one of the cheapest technologies that can be intelligently leveraged to provide considerable energy savings. The addition of renewables in the form of distributed resources can affect the entire power system, but more importantly, affects the traditional substation control schemes at the distribution level. This paper looks at the effect on energy consumption, peak load reduction, and voltage profile changes caused bu the addition of distributed generation in a distribution feeder using a volt-var control (VVC) technique for CVR with different end-of-line (EOL) measurements. An IEEE 13-node system is used to simulate the various cases. Energy savings and peak load reduction for different simulation scenarios are compared.

AB The Virtual Control System Environment (VCSE) is a hybrid simulator that is used to analyze the effects of cyber security vulnerabilities for control systems on the power grid. The VCSE allows a heterogeneous environment of real, emulated, and simulated components which allow the modeler freedom to instantiate components at varying levels of detail necessary for the analysis. Stronger modeling effort can be applied to specific systems under test while the remainder of the environment can be filled in with less labor-intensive elements. The VCSE includes software that federates and automates together capabilities across simulation domains (here, the control system components, their networking, and the power grid).
This document introduces the VCSE approach to hybrid simulation of the grid and control systems (compared with other approaches). In particular, the VCSE incorporates one key feature: simulation software and hardware are federated through networking interfaces (both real and virtual). This allows for straightforward system-in-the-loop (SITL) analysis, which is of paramount importance for cyber security analysis, as the failure modes of the system under test depend so strongly on its ensemble characteristics (hardware/ software/configuration/application). The paper also details the existing modeling approaches in VCSE for each major domain of simulation elements at the real/emulated/simulated levels.

AB Marine and hydrokinetic energy can be broadly categorized as wave energy, tidal current, open-ocean current, river current, and ocean thermal gradient. Salinity gradient energy is often included as a form of marine energy. The technologies used to convert these forms of energy to electricity are often referred to collectively as marine hydrokinetic (MHK) energy technologies. This paper will give a brief introduction to MHK technologies and their current status. It will also explore the scientific, technical, and nontechnical challenges and barriers to the wide-spread use of MHK technologies. The challenges and barriers include: 1) siting and permitting barriers, 2) environmental impact research needs, 3) technical research and development issues, 4) policy issues, 5) market development barriers, 6) economic and financial issues, 7) grid integration barriers, and 8) education and workforce training needs.

Renewable portfolio standards and initiatives to reduce the dependency on foreign energy sources drive much of the deployment. Unfortunately, renewable energy generation sources like wind and solar tend to be highly variable in nature. To counter the energy imbalance caused by this variability, wind generation often requires additional balancing resources to compensate for the variability in the electricity production. With the expected electrification of transportation, electric vehicles may offer a new load resource for meeting all, or part, of the imbalance created by the renewable generation.
This paper investigates a regulation-services-based battery charging method on a population of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles to meet the power imbalance requirements associated with the introduction of 11 GW of additional wind generation into the Northwest Power Pool. It quantifies the number of vehicles required to meet the imbalance requirements under various charging assumptions.

AB This paper is a result of ongoing activity carried out by Understanding, Prediction, Mitigation and Restoration of Cascading Failures Task Force under IEEE Computer Analytical Methods Subcommittee (CAMS). The task force's previous papers are focused on general aspects of cascading outages such as understanding, prediction, prevention and restoration from cascading failures. This is the first of two new papers, which extend this previous work to summarize the state of the art in cascading failure risk analysis methodologies and modeling tools. This paper is intended to be a reference document to summarize the state of the art in the methodologies for performing risk assessment of cascading outages caused by some initiating event(s). A risk assessment should cover the entire potential chain of cascades starting with the initiating event(s) and ending with some final condition(s). However, this is a difficult task and heuristic approaches and approximations have been suggested. This paper discusses different approaches to this and suggests directions for future development of methodologies. The second paper summarizes the state of the art in modeling tools for risk assessment of cascading outages.

Average Approximation
AB Wind power bidding is critical for wind power producers operations in an electricity market. Due to the uncertainly and variability of wind power output, some markets impose a penalty on the deviation between the wind power bids in the day-ahead market and the real wind power output in the real-time market. The objective of a wind power producers bidding problem is to maximize the producers profit while minimizing the penalty and ensuring the output from its wind farms can be utilized to the largest extent. In this paper, we present a wind power bidding strategy based on chance-constrained optimization. The chance constraint is used to define the probability that certain amount of wind power bid into the market can be accepted. We formulate the problem as a chance-constrained two-stage (CCTS) stochastic optimization program. The second stage represents the many possible realizations of wind power output by scenarios. We also consider pumped-storage hydro power plants as storage to accommodate the fluctuation of wind power. Sample Average Approximation (SAA) is used to solve the problem. Numerical examples are also provided.

AB The electric industry is gaining experience with innovative price responsive demand pilots and limited roll-outs to customers. One of these pilots is investigating real-time pricing signals to engage end-use systems and local distributed generation and storage in a distributed optimization process. Attractive aspects about the approach include strong scalability characteristics, simplified interfaces between automation devices, and the adaptability to integrate a wide variety of devices and systems. Experience in this nascent field is revealing a rich array of engineering decisions to consider along with the application of complexity theory. To test the decisions, computer simulations are used to reveal insights about design, demand elasticity, and the limits of response (including consumer fatigue). Agent-based approaches lend themselves well in the simulation to modeling the participation and interaction of each piece of equipment on a distribution feeder. This paper discusses rate design and simulation experiences at the distribution feeder level where consumers and their HVAC systems and water heaters on a feeder receive real-time pricing signals.

It has been monitoring the North American power grid since 2004. Various advanced situational awareness tools have been added using FNET data. Examples include disturbance alert, event location triangulation, oscillation detection, and a number of real-time visualization tools. Power system disturbances characteristics in North American power grid is examined in this paper based on FNET captured events from 2009 to 2010. Further, this paper investigates system dynamics during several major disturbances in Eastern Interconnection and Western Interconnection captured by FNET in 2010.

AB Analysis of power system dynamics helps to understand the operation of a power system. Therefore, it is significant to design and develop advanced visualization tools to interpret frequency, voltage magnitude, and phase angle information so that it can be presented to the operators in an intuitive manner. On the basis of the measurement data collected by widely-distributed frequency disturbance recorders (FDRs), visualization tools have been implemented for the FNET system. A number of FNET visualization tools are discussed in this paper, including real-time visualization, animated event replay, visualization of oscillation mode analysis and visualization of propagation effects in two dimensional systems. These tools correlate the FDR measurements with their corresponding geographical information, and transform the combined matrices into different graphic formats using various computer techniques and programming languages. The graphics generated by these tools facilitate power system operation by allowing an operator to monitor power system dynamics, perform post-event analysis and identify modal oscillations more efficiently.

AB Small signal stability problems are one of the major threats to grid stability and reliability. Low damping of inter area modes is usually considered to be a result of heavy power transfer over long distances. This paper proposes a modified stepwise regression method to estimate the modal sensitivity with respect to power flow on the transmission lines based on measurement. This sensitivity is used to identify dominant transmission lines, whose power flow has significant influence on the inter-area modal damping. It is shown through simulation study that the proposed method can effectively estimate the modal sensitivity with respect to line power flow. This, in turn, provides insight on how to improve damping through adjusting tie line flow.

AB Microprocessor-based systems are the most common design for high-performance computing (HPC) platforms. In these systems, several thousands of microprocessors can participate in a single calculation that could take weeks or months to complete. When used in this manner, a fault in any of the microprocessors could cause the computation to crash or cause silent data corruption (SDC), i.e. computationally incorrect results. In recent years, neutron-induced failures in HPC hardware have been observed, and researchers have started to study how neutron radiation affects microprocessor-based scientific computations. This paper presents results from an accelerated neutron test focusing on two microprocessors used in Roadrunner, the first Petaflop system.

The dynamics of the fading channels are captured using a mean-reverting linear stochastic differential equation driven by a Brownian motion. Recursive estimation and identification algorithms solely from received signal strength data are developed. These algorithms are based on combining the particle filter (PF) with the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm that estimate and identify the power path-loss of the channel and its parameters, respectively. Numerical results are provided to evaluate the accuracy of the proposed algorithms.

AB In many signal processing applications, a signal to be classified has been corrupted by a channel and additive noise. A standard approach is to estimate the clean signal, then classify it. We consider two robust approaches that account for the estimation procedure. The first approach is an application of the MAP rule for noisy features, and the second is an approach for discriminative classifiers that treats that training points as random. An experiment confirms that the robust approaches offer performance gains.

AB The expected kernel for missing features is introduced and applied to training a support vector machine. The expected kernel is a measure of the mean similarity with respect to the distribution of the missing features. We compare the expected kernel SVM with the robust second-order cone program (SOCP) SVM, which accounts for missing kernel values by estimating the mean and covariance of missing similarities. Further, we extend the SOCP SVM to utilize the expected kernel by deriving the expected kernel variance. Results show that the expected kernel-used with a traditional SVM solver-shows competitive performance on benchmark datasets to the SOCP SVM at a far-reduced computational burden.

AB Virtual machine (VM)-based simulation is a method used by network simulators to incorporate realistic application behaviors by executing actual VMs as high-fidelity surrogates for simulated end-hosts. A critical requirement in such a method is the simulation time-ordered scheduling and execution of the VMs. Prior approaches such as time dilation are less efficient due to the high degree of multiplexing possible when multiple multi-core VMs are simulated on multi-core host systems. We present a new simulation time-ordered scheduler to efficiently schedule multi-core VMs on multi-core real hosts, with a virtual clock realized on each virtual core. The distinguishing features of our approach are: (1) customizable granularity of the VM scheduling time unit on the simulation time axis, (2) ability to take arbitrary leaps in virtual time by VMs to maximize the utilization of host (real) cores when guest virtual cores idle, and (3) empirically determinable optimality in the tradeoff between total execution (real) time and time-ordering accuracy levels. Experiments show that it is possible to get nearly perfect time-ordered execution, with a slight cost in total run time, relative to optimized non-simulation VM schedulers. Interestingly, with our time-ordered scheduler, it is also possible to reduce the time-ordering error from over 50% of non-simulation scheduler to less than 1% realized by our scheduler, with almost the same run time efficiency as that of the highly efficient non-simulation VM schedulers.

ID PERFORMANCE
AB Photovoltaic (PV) system modeling is used throughout the photovoltaic industry for the prediction of PV system output under a given set of weather conditions. PV system modeling has a wide range of uses including: pre-purchase comparisons of PV system components, system health monitoring, and payback (return on investment) times. In order to adequately model a PV system, the system must be characterized to establish the relationship between given weather inputs (e.g., irradiance, spectrum, temperature) and desired system outputs (e.g., AC power, module temperature). Traditional approaches to system characterization involve characterizing and modeling each component in a PV system and forming a system model by successively using component models. This paper lays the groundwork for using a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) to characterize and model an entire PV system without the need to characterize or model the individual system components. Input/output relationships are "learned" by the RNN using measured system performance data and correlated weather data. Thus, this method for characterizing and modeling PV systems is useful for existing PV system installations with several weeks of correlated system performance and weather data.

AB Hippocampus within medial temporal lobe of the brain is essentially involved in episodic memory formation. Rather than simply being a mechanism of storing information, episodic memory associates information such as the spatial and temporal context of an event. Using hippocampus neurophysiology and functionality as an inspiration, we have developed an artificial neural network architecture called Associative-ART to associate k-tuples of inputs. In this paper we present an overview of hippocampus neurophysiology, explain the design of our neural network architecture, and present experimental results from an implementation of our architecture.

AB Conventional sparse coding learns optimal dictionaries of feature bases to approximate input signals; however, it is not favorable to classify the inputs. Recent research has focused on building discriminative sparse coding models to facilitate the classification tasks. In this paper, we develop a new discriminative sparse coding model via bidirectional flows. Sensory inputs (from bottom-up) and discriminative signals (supervised from top-down) are propagated through a hierarchical network to form sparse representations at each level. The l(0)-constrained sparse coding model allows highly efficient online learning and does not require iterative steps to reach a fixed point of the sparse representation. The introduction of discriminative top-down information flows helps to group reconstructive features belonging to the same class and thus to benefit the classification tasks. Experiments are conducted on multiple data sets including natural images, handwritten digits and 3-D objects with favorable results. Compared with unsupervised sparse coding via only bottom-up directions, the two-way discriminative approach improves the recognition performance significantly.

AB Ceramic films of high permittivity and breakdown strength are critical to advanced power electronic devices. We have grown ferroelectric films of lead lanthanum zirconate titanate (PLZT) on base metal foils by chemical solution deposition. We measured a dielectric constant of approximate to 700 and dielectric loss of approximate to 0.07 at -50 degrees C and a dielectric constant of approximate to 2200 and dielectric loss of approximate to 0.06 at 150 degrees C. At room temperature, we measured a leakage current density of approximate to 6.6 x 10(-9) A/cm(2), mean breakdown strength of 2.6 MV/cm, and energy density >85 J/cm(3). Highly accelerated lifetime testing (HALT) was performed to determine the reliability of these PLZT film-on-foil capacitors under high temperature and high field stress conditions. Samples were exposed to temperatures ranging from 100 to 150 degrees C and electric fields ranging from 8.7 x 10(5) V/cm to 1.3 x 10(6) V/cm during HALT. The breakdown behavior of the samples was evaluated by Weibull analysis. The mean time to failure, >3000 h, was projected at 100 degrees C with a dc electric field of approximate to 2.6 x 10(5) V/cm.

AB User association logs play an important role in wireless network research. One concern of sharing such logs with other researchers, however, is that they pose potential privacy risks for the network users. Today, the common practice in sanitizing these logs before releasing them to the public is to anonymize users' sensitive information, such as their devices' MAC addresses and their exact association locations. In this work, we aim to study whether such sanitization measures are sufficient to protect user privacy. By simulating an adversary's role, we propose a novel type of correlation attack in which the adversary uses the anonymized association log to build signatures against each user, and when combined with auxiliary information, such signatures can help to identify users within the anonymized log. Using a user association log that contains more than four thousand users and millions of association records, we demonstrate that this attack technique, under certain circumstances, is able to pinpoint the victim's identity exactly with a probability as high as 70%, or narrow it down to a set of 20 candidates with a probability close to 100%. We further evaluate the effectiveness of standard anonymization techniques, including generalization and perturbation, in mitigating correlation attacks; our experimental results reveal only limited success of these methods, suggesting that more thorough treatment is needed when anonymizing wireless user association logs before public release.

AB All technology programs progress through three phases: Discovery, Definition, and Deployment. The form and application of program metrics needs to evolve with each phase.
During the discovery phase, the program determines what is achievable. A set of tools is needed to define program goals, to analyze credible technical options, and to ensure that the options are compatible and meet the program objectives. A metrics system that scores the potential performance of technical options is part of this system of tools, supporting screening of concepts and aiding in the overall definition of objectives.
During the definition phase, the program defines what specifically is wanted. What is achievable is translated into specific systems and specific technical options are selected and optimized. A metrics system can help with the identification of options for optimization and the selection of the option for deployment.
During the deployment phase, the program shows that the selected system works. Demonstration projects are established and classical systems engineering is employed. During this phase, the metrics communicate system performance.
This paper discusses an approach to metrics evolution within the Department of Energy's Nuclear Fuel Cycle Research & Development Program, which is working to improve the sustainability of nuclear energy.

Purpose of this roadmap is to explore adoption barriers and drivers associated with diffusion of variable capacity heat pump technology, and facilitate a regional consortium towards developing an energy efficiency program in the case of Northwest U. S. Adoption barriers have been observed to group under the names; contractor, designer and owner related unfamiliarity; difficulty in measure development and incentive programs, lack of information in savings and measure cost effectiveness, conflicting incentives and codes/standards. Policy tools and necessary action items have been developed to address specified issues by considering relevant regional efforts in attempt to prevent duplicating the efforts already underway elsewhere.
