Chemical Mechanisms and Their Applications in the Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS) Earth System Model

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2017
NASA's Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS) Earth System Model (ESM) is a modular, general circulation model (GCM), and data assimilation system (DAS) that is used to simulate and study the coupled dynamics, physics, chemistry, and biology of our planet.

Electrochemical Behavior of Flame‐Sprayed Sc‐Doped AlCoCrFeMo High‐Entropy Alloy Coatings in 3.5% Sodium Chloride Solution

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Scandium (Sc)‐doped AlCoCrFeMo HEA coatings are fabricated via flame spraying with 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 wt% Sc additions. Among these, the HEA‐Sc0.3 coating exhibits the highest corrosion resistance, indicated by a more positive corrosion potential and lower current density.

On the stabilization of leading-edge vortices with different reduced frequencies over finite-aspect-ratio pitch-up wings

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2020
An implicit large-eddy simulation method is used to numerically simulate the flowfield around a finite-span rectangular wing in pitch motion. The effect of the reduced frequency (k) on the stability of the leading-edge vortex (LEV) is studied.

Performance Enhancement by Wing Sweep for High-Speed Dynamic Soaring

open access: yesAerospace, 2021
Dynamic soaring is a flight mode that uniquely enables high speeds without an engine. This is possible in a horizontal shear wind that comprises a thin layer and a large wind speed.

Attitude Estimation of Skis in Ski Jumping Using Low-Cost Inertial Measurement Units

open access: yesProceedings, 2018
This paper presents an approach to estimate the attitude of skis for an entire ski jump using wearable, MEMS-based, low-cost Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs). First of all, a kinematic attitude model based on rigid-body dynamics and a sensor error model

The NASA Carbon Airborne Flux Experiment (CARAFE): instrumentation and methodology [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2018
The exchange of trace gases between the Earth's surface and atmosphere strongly influences atmospheric composition. Airborne eddy covariance can quantify surface fluxes at local to regional scales (1–1000 km), potentially helping to bridge gaps between

All‐in‐One Analog AI Hardware: On‐Chip Training and Inference with Conductive‐Metal‐Oxide/HfOx ReRAM Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An all‐in‐one analog AI accelerator is presented, enabling on‐chip training, weight retention, and long‐term inference acceleration. It leverages a BEOL‐integrated CMO/HfOx ReRAM array with low‐voltage operation (<1.5 V), multi‐bit capability over 32 states, low programming noise (10 nS), and near‐ideal weight transfer.
