## The Problem: Collection Site Quality

- USGAO November 1st Report
- Sites failed to restrict access to adulterants
- Adulterants are readily available to donors
- Adulterants can be added to the sample during the collection process

## What can Pembrooke do about it?	

- 1 – Find the biggest problems
- Survey sent to 500 recently tested donors
- Analysis of cancelled test data
- On-site inspections by Pembrooke employees
- 2 – Train them
- HHS collection procedures included in setup materials
- Collection process checklists
- Phone review of cancelled test analysis
- Certification training programs
- 3- Weed out the bad ones

## Earned Value Management

**Marilyn Holland, Chief**
**PPMD/OCIO/USDA**

**For the Acquisition Workforce Conference**
*On April 19, 2005*

## What is Earned Value Management (EVM)?

-  Earned Value is–value of completed work expressed in terms of budget assigned to that work.
- EVM is—A management methodology for objectively measuring project performance and progress
- EVM System is—a “_*process*_” for objectively measuring project performance and progress. (defined in ANSI/EIA-748-A)
- What it isn’t — just a tool

## Why Earned Value Management?

- Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996; Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act; OMB Circular A-11
-  With over $60 billion each year spent government-wide on IT, OMB wants to ensure that all significant federal IT investments are well-managed.
- August 23, 2004, OMB Memo expanded EVM to PMA scorecard

##  Who has to do EVM?

-  Project managers of “Major investments” with significant development/ modernization/enhancements (D/M/E) expenditures
-  Contracting Officers are critical

## Status of EVM at USDA

-  Senior Procurement Exec/CIO memo directing use of EVM-9/2004
-  DR drafted
-  Creating Implementation Guide
-  Creating EVM Reference Guide (based on DOD)
-  25 Majors have started reporting EVM results into the USDA repository (WorkLenz)

## DQ by LBN – wants verses needs

- Luminosity Group:
- What earliest data we can reasonably get  in the database ?
- We need to justify this internally and to the collaboration
- We just want to load the DQ data, set up the interfaces so you can test it.  We will not do it in stages.
- The Luminosity Group is not interested in answering Question A.
- Data Quality Group:
- What is the QUALITY of DATA QUALITY for these early runs ?
- DQ Group is probably not interested in all the issues of  Question 1, but is there a Run number before which you do not care about Data Quality ?

## Surface-Challenged Polymers

- Steve Granick, University Illinois, DMR 0605947

***Novelty:***   **First-ever measurement of how polymer surface diffusion depends on surface concentration.**

***Enabling idea:***   Single-molecule methods borrowed from the field of biophysics.

***Materials Relevance:***  **Surface diffusion underpins functional properties of polymers, for example adhesion, friction, and nanotechnology.  These novel measurements, not previously possible, were enabled by applying single-molecule methods to this fundamental problem for the first time.**

***Key Result:***  **Surface diffusion rate first rises with increasing surface coverage, then drops precipitously as coverage exceeds dilute levels.  This probably reflects jamming and mutual entanglement in layers one molecule thick.  This unexpected experimental finding presents a challenge for materials theory.  **

## VCP 121 can be effective in reducing range-folding (purple haze) -  a well-known problem for 88D tropical cyclone observations.

- However, _problems remain_ in increasing the velocity measurement increment in VCP 121.
- 2004 – increasing VMI not possible
- 2005 – possible, but there appears to be a bug in the VCP 121 code.
- 2006 – problem should be solved in Build 8

## Additional issues – 

- AWIPS display (product legend) should clearly indicate VMI at a glance.  Currently, it does **not** do so.
- Comms failure at KLIX during landfall emphasized the need for a local (WFO) level II archive.

## Slide 15

## TDWR locations

## Significant damage to Unisys dish demonstrated the value of redundancy.

- In this case, AWIPS remained operational.
- TDWR provided additional backup.

## Slide 19

## Conclusions

-  Central collection of radar data vastly improved, but local backup will ensure that valuable data is not lost during extreme events.
-  Catastrophic failures are possible.
-  VCP 121** **is an effective tool for reducing range-folding (purple haze).  A residual bug should be resolved for 2006.

## The Airport Capital Improvement Plan (ACIP)

- ANM Conference  - April, 2001

**What it is**

**What it isn’t**

- 3 year plan of what we think is reasonable to accomplish
- An agreement between the sponsor and FAA on what should be done, and when it is planned to be accomplished.
- As a planning document, it is deliberative (not public)
- A collaborative effort to accommodate regional needs within a national context

- A simple compilation of sponsors CIP’s
- It is not a commitment to fund
- Set in stone
- Something I concoct in my office

**The Airport Capital Improvement Plan (ACIP)**

## ACIP: Critical Elements

- People: ability to transmit critical need in a timely manner
- Funds:  availability and prioritizing competing needs
- Selling/communicating the plan

**ACIP: Critical Elements**

## Demystifying the ACIP Process

**ADO’s meet to prioritize projects and update database**
**ACIP Development Team meets and synthesizes data (and checks for compliance with the RAP)**
**ACIP is submitted to Management for evaluation**

## Recent JET Experiments and Science IssuesJim StrachanPPPL Students seminarFeb. 14, 2005

- JET is presently world’s largest tokamak, being 1⁄2 linear dimension of ITER and twice DIII-D.
- JET has produced the highest plasma current, largest fusion power, longest confinement time, and has Tritium and Be capability
- JET first operated in 1983, making many contributions
- This talk will discuss some issues on:
- Size scaling
- DT results
- Divertor/wall material studies
- Some references:
- J. Wesson “Tokamaks” Oxford Sci. Publ. (2004) general
- G. Federici, *et al*, Nuclear Fusion _**41**_, 1967 (2001) wall processes
- J. Jacquinot, *et al*, Nuclear Fusion _**39**_, 235 (1999) DT physics

## D. Meade

## Mushrooms

**Mushrooms**

**Be**

**Be**

**LH + ICRH protection**

**Total main wall tiles = 4404**

## The JET plasma has a shape and relationship to its vacuum vessel which is similar to ITER, making the JET discharges an indication of ITER plasmas

- JET plasmas have
- achieved many of
- the scaled parameters
- needed for ITER

- J. Pamela

## JET results extend scaling to conditions closest to ITER

- J. Cordey

- Confinement scales like:
- I R n1/3 (a/P)1/2

## J. Cordey

- New regimes often tested at JET to understand size scaling

- Confinement is complex: with interplay between pressure gradients, MHD, and transport irregularities

## PTE

- DTE1

- TTE

- DTE2

- Largest machines have the performance to make it worth tritium

- DT experiments study tritium technology, isotope and α particle effects

- D. Meade

## Time Evolution of JET DT pluses

- Highest Fusion Power

- Highest Fusion Energy
- ITER prototype plasma

- P. Lomas

## 10% of heating was attributed to alpha heating

- P. Thomas

## Slide 10

## One major effort is to mitigate ELMs and scale to ITER 

- Atop ~ 0.6 m2
- Alimiters ~ 0.3-0.6 m2

- Power density estimate:
- WELMwall ~(0.5-1.0) WELMdiv
-  AELMwall ~ AELMdiv
-  ELMwall ~ ELMdiv ~ 200 - 500 s
- WELM = 1MJ

- Be-wall loads 9 – 39 MJm-2s-1/2
- (melting ~ 16  MJm-2s-1/2)

- One major effort is to mitigate ELMs and scale to ITER

- G. Matthews

## IAEA summary 2004

## JET Wall Proposal: Option 1

**Objectives are to study: **
-  Material migration / lifetime
** **Tritium retention / inventory control
-  Damage due to transients / control

**350 MJ**

**20 MJ**

## JET Wall Proposal: option 2.

**Objectives **
-  Demonstrate low T retention
-  Test de-tritiation techniques
-  Study effect of Be on W erosion
-  Study melt layer loss – wall + divertor   ELMs and disruptions
-  Refine control / mitigation techniques   Limit disruption / ELM damage
-  Operate without C - radiation

**Demonstrate routine / safe operation of fully integrated ITER compatible scenarios at 3-5MA******** NBI power upgrade  **

**350 MJ**

**20 MJ**

## Discussion

- JET being largest machine, and highest performance, and closest to ITER: tests size scaling
- JET DT capability tests tritium technology, isotope effects, alpha particle effects, and trace tritium transport
- Similarity to ITER shape and relation to walls means JET tests power handling and wall material issues

## Elliptic Flow at BRAHMS

- APS: April 16, 2005
- Erik Johnson
- University of Kansas

## Elliptic Flow

- Anisotropic flow is measured with respect to a reaction plane, R.

- The particle density in  can be described using a Fourier expansion.

- Pressure gradients in the asymmetric collision region result in an azimuthally anisotropic particle distribution

## Measuring Elliptic Flow

- A. Poskanzer and S. Voloshin, PRC 58, 1671 (1998)
- The elliptic flow signal is measured with respect to an event plane.

- Index i stands for
- one detector element

- DNP Chicago

- Oct 30, 2004

## Calculating the Resolution Correction

- Other RHIC experiments use only two symmetric measurements of the event plane to get the correction factor.
- BRAHMS is required to use three measurements of the event plane.

- DNP Chicago

- Oct 30, 2004

## 2 Resolution Correction Factor

- The BRAHMS measurement requires more events.

## Summary

- The BRAHMS flow array **WORKS.**
- The large Au Au 2004 data set allows BRAHMS to measure elliptic flow with our large resolution correction factor.
- The major corrections have been understood.
- The v2 dependence on centrality is reasonable and comparable to the Phobos results.
- There are few obstacles at this point to measure a flow signal at more forward regions using the spectrometers.
- Work partially supported by the Office of Nuclear Physics of USDOE under contract DE-FG03-96ER40981

## Dipole-related Technology DevelopmentPeter Wanderer, BNLLARP Annual MeetingOctober 19-21, 2004

## Assemble existing LBL subcoils in open midplane dipole configuration

- Analysis:  2D (and 3D?) forces and fields versus size of midplane gap
- Compare to more complete designs
- Use LBL models of subcoils?  (ProE used in both places)  Is this actually a shortcut?
- Instrumentation: Use printed circuit strain gauges and/or voltage taps now in subscale coils?

## open midplane fixture

- Design fixture at BNL
- Iterate with LBL (e.g., tolerances)
- Plan for > 1 test per fixture
- Begin manufacture in FY05
- Need FY06 funds to complete it, if FY05 holdbacks stay in place.
- Understand interaction with design of a model “separation dipole”

## Base program topics

- Complete 12 T dipole for background field
- 45 turn coil
- React and wind studies –
- strain sensitivity of reacted cable (10-turn coils)
- stability of cable with high interstrand resistivity (short sample tests and 10-turn coils)
- Cable test facility –
- improvements to short sample fixture
- Vacuum impregnation –
- small-scale studies

## Tasks for the near term

- Apply “explore the limits of the technologies” to FY05 and work on separation dipoles with available resources
- Hardware deliverable important
- Make agreements for collaborative work
- Develop “resource-loaded schedule”
- Milestones + budgets = task sheets

- “task sheets”

## National River Forecast Verification System NOAA Science Advisory Board Meeting July 16, 2003 Gary CarterDirector, Office of Hydrologic Development

**Notes:**

NOAA plays a key role in protecting life and property and in providing decision-makers with valuable information through its weather and climate services.

Water services are an important part of NOAA’s National Weather Service’s forecast and warning capabilities.  NOAA’s water science activities include research and operations – from the U.S. Weather Research Program, to existing flood and river forecasts, to the Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Services.

## Verification of River Stage Forecasts  

**Started April 2001 for 194 locations nationwide**
**Data archived at each River Forecast Center **
**Mean Absolute Error (MAE) results stratified by:**
**	****Flow Level**** - above and below flood stage**
** ****	****Forecast Lead Time**** - 6 to 72 hours**
**	****River Response to Rainfall**** - fast, intermediate, ****	****	****and slow**
**Note: more robust verification methodology will be introduced, data points are not statistically independent **

## River Forecasting Challenges: Conceptual Catchment Representation

- Evapo-
- transpiration

- Rainfall

- Infiltration

- Soil moisture storage

- Groundwater storage

- Fast flow

- Percolation

- Slow flow

- Base flow

- Total flow

## Above and Below Flood StageSample Sizes April 2001 to March 2003

## Below Flood Stage ForecastsMean Absolute Error (feet) April 2001 to March 2003

##  Above Flood Stage ForecastsMean Absolute Error (feet) April 2001 to March 2003

## Summary of Verification Issues

**MAEs range from about ****0.2 to 2.5 feet**** and generally increase with forecast lead time**
**NWS River Forecast System ****performs well for locations below flood stage and for Slow rivers**** with 3 days, or more, delay between heavy rainfall and the crest (e.g., Ohio River at Evansville, IL)**
**Intermediate Rivers with 1 - 2 days between heavy rainfall and crest (e.g., Russian River at Guerneville, CA) ****are difficult to forecast above flood stage****: investigate impacts of improved quantitative precipitation forecasts and deploy high resolution hydrologic models **
