by Matthew Miller Hoping to head off a potential security threat, Sandia National Laboratories has demonstrated a passive technique that unsavory characters could use to identify the device driver in use by an 802.11 radio. The perpetrators ...
Mark Smith, FASM, researcher at Sandia National Laboratories, and his fellow researchers are striving to improve fundamental scientific understanding of the cold spray technique. They are working with a consortium of eight U.S. companies, including a Mark Smith, FASM, researcher at Sandia National Laboratories, and ...
Sandia National Laboratories will manage a research center to develop advanced techniques for monitoring the safety and performance of the nation's aging jetliners. The Aging Aircraft Nondestructive Inspection Development and Demonstration Center AANC will be operated for the Federal Aviation Administration FAA at Sandia and the Albuquerque International Airport....
A powerful new tool for characterizing the shape and density of materials is believed to hold promise for use in a variety of industrial and medical areas, including the study of cancer ad Alzheimer's disease. Called ion microtomography IMT, the emerging technology produces detailed images of slices of objects...
A new technique developed by researchers at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, New Mexico using an inexpensive disposable fiber optics telemetry system to relay real-time information about the drilling process is capturing oil and gas indu A new technique developed by researchers at Sandia National...
Brigham Young University scientist Larry Baxter concedes that carbon sequestration will make electricity more expensive and power plants less efficient. Yet because of global warming concerns, the technology may be required. If it is, he may have developed better sequestration technology. In addition, he and his team...
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Researches at Sandia National Laboratories (www.sandia.gov) have developed an inexpensive way to focus laser light. Many laser systems are focused with adaptive optics, which use a number of small computer-controlled mirrors to make minute corrections to the beam. The Sandia system consists of a...
Networks of sensors mounted on commercial aircraft might one day check continuously for the formation of structural defects, possibly reducing or eliminating scheduled aircraft inspections. Like nerve endings in a human body, in situ sensors offer levels of vigilance and sensitivity to problems that periodic...
A project at Sandia National Laboratories is aiming to use computational modeling techniques to make "extreme" enzymes - so-called for their affinity to extreme environments - relevant to cellulosic ethanol production's technical debate. The focus at Sandia, a National Nuclear Security Administration NNSA laboratory, is Sulfolobus solfataricus, an organism...
Common aquatic plants offer economies of scale without affecting competition for food, land resources. Scientists are turning humble pond scum into fuel. A research effort seeks to develop techniques to grow algae economically and to convert the oils produced by the tiny plants into biodiesel on an...
It lurks in Albuquerque, N.M., a partially submerged particle accelerator built to generate data [or supercomputers that simulate nuclear explosions. But in its 10 violent years of life, the Z machine has surprised its creators at Sandia National Laboratories. Using a technique known as the z-pinch--which...
The next time you're sipping a latte and surfing the Net at your favorite neighborhood wireless cafe, someone around you could be breaking into your laptop, causing irreparable damage to your computer's operating system by secretly tapping into your network card's unique device driver, researchers at...
Intermittent electrical short circuits in aging commercial airliners can make cabin lights blink, air conditioning falter, or even cause fatal crashes. But a novel technique helps pinpoint potentially dangerous shorts hidden in the miles of wiring, say developers at Sandia National ...
Laser beam shaping applications. Ed. by Fred M. Dickey et al. Taylor & Francis 2006 357 pages $139.95 Hardcover Optical science and engineering; 102 TA1677 Given the wide range of applications that...
Researchers at Vanderbilt University have discovered a formula for a quantum-dot coating that transforms the light emitted by a blue LED into a broad-spectrum white light with a slightly yellow cast-similar to that of incandescent bulbs. The dots, which are crystals of cadmium and selenium that...
Scientists at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, N.M., made a disturbing discovery in the fall of 2004: the techniques used to decontaminate an area after an anthrax exposure-namely swabbing, wiping, and vacuuming-are apparently much less thorough than most emergency professionals are aware. Specifically, the methods used...
Before their re-entry into Earth's atmosphere early August 10, the crew of the Space Shuttle Discovery used a Laser Camera System LCS to scan the shuttle's protective skin for damage. Built by Neptec Design Group, the LCS uses a triangulation-based laser-scanning...
Single-Ion Microscopy techniques are gaining ground in applications ranging from integrated circuit IC characterization to biological studies. Researchers from Sandia National Laboratories, Albuquerque, NM, and Quantar Technology Inc., Santa Cruz, Calif., have recently extended the capabilities of single-ion microscopy with their invention, the Ion Photon...
