National Institute of Standards and Technology Environmental Scan 2023: Societal and Technology Landscape to Inform Science and Technology Research

August 23, 2023
Author(s)
Ashley Boggs-Russell, Kerrianne Buchanan, David W. Griffith, Heather Evans, Dimitrios Meritis, Lisa Ng, Anna Sberegaeva, Michelle Stephens
The 2023 National Institute of Standards and Technology Environmental Scan provides an analysis of key external factors that could impact NIST and the fulfillment of its mission in coming years. The analyses were conducted through three separate lenses

ASCE/SEI 41 Assessment of Reinforced Concrete Buildings: Comparison of the Nonlinear Dynamic Procedure with Other Evaluation Methods

May 22, 2023
Author(s)
Andrew Sen, Dustin Cook, ABBIE LIEL, Tarbin Basnet, Russell Berkowitz, Ariel Creagh, Wassim Ghannoum, Ayse Hortacsu, Insung Kim, Hamid Koodiani, Dawn Lehman, Laura Lowes, Adolfo Matamoros, Farzad Naeim, Siamak Sattar, Rob Smith
The U.S. consensus standard for seismic evaluation and retrofit of existing buildings, ASCE/SEI 41, establishes provisions for seismic analysis procedures that vary in complexity and fidelity. Although ASCE/SEI 41 provides detailed nonlinear dynamic

A Call for a National Community Resilience Extension Partnership: Building a Sustained Multi-Disciplinary Bridge from Community Resilience Research to Practice and Communities

March 31, 2023
Author(s)
Christopher Clavin, Jennifer Helgeson, Matthew Malecha, Shubha Shrivastava
Establishing a national Community Resilience Extension Partnership, a boundary organization directly linking the scientific community with local planners and policymakers, would provide the research-to-practice infrastructure needed to accelerate the

Workshop on Incorporating Climate Change Data in U.S. Building Codes and Standards

March 8, 2023
Author(s)
Jason D. Averill, Therese P. McAllister, Andrew K. Persily, Scott Weaver, James Whetstone, Jiann C. Yang, Michael Kuperberg, Sumant Nigam, Alfredo Ruiz-Barradas
NIST hosted a workshop to advance the availability of climate information sought by organizations developing standards, model building codes, and voluntary certifications by convening interactions between the building codes and climate science communities.

The hazard of UV-induced oxidation to solar-viewing spacecraft optics

March 2, 2023
Author(s)
Charles S. Tarrio, Robert F. Berg, Thomas B. Lucatorto, Dale E. Newbury, Nicholas Ritchie, Andrew Jones, Frank Eparvier
The two most prevalent outgas contaminants on satellites are organic molecules and water vapor. Adsorbed organic molecules can degrade a solar-viewing instrument when they are cracked by ultraviolet radiation (UV) and become a light-absorbing layer of

Validating commonly-used indicators for community resilience measurement

January 25, 2023
Author(s)
Donghwan Gu, Maria Dillard, Michael Gerst, Jarrod Loerzel
This paper quantitatively examines indicators frequently used to measure community resilience. Based on existing frameworks and methodologies rooted in multiple disciplines, a set of 18 indicators were identified as being most prevalent. A data-driven
