Evaluation of the single-pass flow-through test to support a low-activity waste specification
McGrail, B.P.; Peeler, D.K. - 2009
A series of single-pass flow-through (SPFT) tests was performed on five reference low-activity waste glasses and a reference glass from the National Institute of Standards and Technology to support a product specification for low-activity waste (LAW) forms. The results showed that the SPFT test...

A framework for the characterization of the transient handling responses of non-linear vehicles
Mavros, George; Rahnejat, Homer; King, P.D. - 2007
The paper attempts to provide an integrated framework for the objective assessment of the transient handling responses of non-linear vehicles. The ultimate aim of the proposed framework is the characterization of such responses as neutral or under/over-steering. A new methodology is employed,...
