Paul
J.
Brown
Intro ucfon by Lawrence M. K shner
Our next speaker is Paul Brown. Paul is going to
talk about the transfer from NBS to the Depart
ment of Transportation, of a good bit of work here
that had to do with automotive safety that was ini
tiated in the period after World War II, and grew
at the Bureau as the Department of Transportation
was established and put money into the Bureau to
conduct research and testing on important automo
tive components. Our speaker, Paul Brown, is an
engineer. He received his B.S. in mechanical engi
neering and a master's degree in engineering ad
ministration from Washington University in St.
Louis. He joined the Bureau in 1966 after having a
number of engineering management positions in
industry. At the Bureau, he headed up the automo
tive safety work. In 1972, the entire package of au
tomotive safety research and testing at the Bureau
was transferred to the Department of Transporta
tion becoming the technical arm of the then new
National Highway Traffic Safety Agency. I regard
this spinoff as in the classic mold, that is, the Bu
reau taking On some early work when an agency
didn't have its own technical capabilities, building
it up to a point at which it was viable, and then
when the other agency was ready to accept it,
transferring it to the agency.
I'd like now to call on Paul Brown, who when
leaving the Department of Transportation, went to
the Department of Energy, where he became in
volved and very much interested in electric vehi
cles. Now, in his "retirement," is the Executive
Director of the Electrical Vehicle Association of
the Americas. Paul Brown.

In roductioD by Lawrence M. Kus
Our final speaker this afterno 0 is Dr. Gordon
Little, who is going to talk about the Central Radio
Propagation Laboratory and its spinoff from the
Bureau. Dr. LitHe was educated: in Manchester,
England, where he received a bachelor of science
degree in 1948, and a Ph.D. in radio astronomy in
1952. In 1953, he came to the United States, where
be b ,came Deputy Djrector and ReseaJ"ch Profes
sor jn the Geophysical Institute at the University of
Alaska. He was there until 1958, at which time he
er
left to join the Central Radio Propagation Labora
t ry at Boul .er. He transferred with the CRPL to
the Environmental Science Services Administra
tion, that is ES A, in 1965. It subsequently became
part of the Nation 1 Oceanic and A ospheric Ad'nislration in 1970. Dr. Little resigned from
NOAA in 1986, and since 1987 he has been with
the Navy, based in Monterey, C lifoml3, but he is a
Senior Fellow at Lhe atioal C nl r for Atmo
spheric Research in B ulder. Dr. Gordon Little.

THE U.S. STANDARD
A LROAD GAUGE
Or
HOW MIL PEes UVE FOREVER
The U.S. Standard Railroad Gange (distance between the rails) is
4 feel, 8-l/2 inches (fnrther obscured in metric measnres as 1.44
meters). That's an odd nnmber.
Why is this gauge used? Because thal's the way they bnilt them
in England, and the U.S. railroads were built by English expatri
ates.
Why did the English bnild them like that? Becanse the first rail
lines were built by the same people who built the pre-railroad tram
ways, and that's the gauge they nsed.
Why did they use that gauge then? Because the people who built
the tramways used the same jigs and tools as they used for build
ing wagons, which used that wheel spacing.
OK! Why did the wagons use that wheel spacing? Well, if they
tried to use any other spacing the wagons would break on some of
the old. long distance roads, because that's the spacing of the ruts.
So who built these old rutted roads? The first long distance roads
in Europe were built by Imperial Rome for the benefit of their
legions. The roads have been used ever since.
DOE
TROlOGY MEETING 0
BE HOSTED BY
~IST
And the ruts? The initial mts, which everyone else had to match
for fear of breaking their wagons, were tirst made by Roman war
chariots. Since the chariots were made by or for Imperial Rome
they were all alike in the matter of wheel spacing (mts again).
A meeting to address DOE metrology issues and concerns is sched
uled for March 19-20, 1997, at the National Institute of Science
and Technology in Gaithersburg, MD. The principallopics of the
meeting will be those identified during an organizational work
shop iu August, 1996, at Sandia National Laboratories (Sandia).
The meeting will provide an overview of DOE metrology and will
establish a centralized, DOE-sponsored group to help identify
metrology needs aud spearhead DOE metrology efforts. One of
the key issues at the NIST meeting will bc the new group's formal
recognition, through acceptance by the general membership of a
pro posed charter.
Thus we have the answer to the original qnestion. The UniLed
States standard railroad gauge of 4 feet 8-1/2 inches derives from
the original military specification (MILSPEC) for an Imperial
Roman army war charioL MILSPECs live forever.
Those attending will form a standing committee to be sponsored
by the DOE Technical Standards Program. Membership will be
open to all DOE and DOE-contractor metrology personnel. The
March meeting at NIST will address issues identified at the orga
nizational workshop on communication, resources, and uni formity,
plus other common areas of concern expressed by personnel work
ing in standards and related measurements field. In addtion to

ITH ARC SENSING AN'O
Can process sensing and control replace a skilled welder so that
high-quality welds are consistently made under a variety of con
ditions? Yes, say NIST researchers, particularly for gas metal are
welding. The areas where they believe arc sensing and control
systems can improve weld quality are: (1) in seem-automatic weld
ing where control systems can detect and correct problems faster
than a human, and (2) in fully automatic welding where control
systems can emulate the eyes and ears of a skilled welder. In a
recent paper, the NIST researchers say the control systems are
only as good as the sensing information they receive. "The wider
the range of sensory data, the better the ability to maintain weld
quality," t.hey report. The paper shows how arc current and volt
age signals and arc light intensity can be used to monitor and con
trol contact tube wear, degradation of shielding gas, wire feed in
terruptions, arc length and droplet transfer. For a copy of paper

NEW WEB S'ITECUTS METRIC QUESTIONS DOWN TO
SIZE
U.S. businesses and organizations are increasing their use of the
metric system. realizing its importance in science, international
trade and manufacturing. The metric system, or International
System of Units (abbreviated SI from the French "Systems Inter
national d'Unites"). is the preferred system of weights and mea
sures for U.S. trade and commerce. To assist users, the NIST
Physics Laboratory recently created a special home page on the
World Wide Web at hnp://physics.nisl.gov/SJ. From this page,
computer users can access three NIST publications on SI units
and a helpful diagram. The Guide to the Internalional System of
Units gives detinitions of the Sl units and guidance on how to use
them. The International System of Units is an English Language
Translation of a brochure published by the International Bureau
of Weights and Measures. The third document, Metric System of
Measuremenl: !llIerpretation of lhe I,.,temational System of Units
for the United States, was published in the Federal Register in
1990, and gives the Department of Commerce interpretation of
the SI fol' the United States. The diagram shows how the 21 SI
derived units with special names are related to the seven SI based
units. The new SI home page is expected to be the most definitive
and up-to-date site for information on the SI
IMPROVED ACCURACYN O,pnCAl RADIATION
REPORTED
Accurate measurements of infrared, visible and ultraviolet light
are critical to our national defense, in monitoring environmental
changes and for a variety of industrial processes. NIST provides
optical radiation standards to ensure the accuracy of these mea
surements. For many years, photometry units wcre established
using optical sources, such as standard lamps available through
the NIST Calibration Program. Now, teehnological advances have
enabled NIST's Optical Technology Division to switch to a more
accurate, detector-based system for transferring standards for ra
diometry, photometry and pyrometer. NIST is encourage all of its
customers to switch to this improved method of calibration. A
National Measurement System for Radiometry, Photometry, and
Pyrometer Based Upon Absolute Detectors (NIST Technical
Note1421) describes the more accurate measurement methodolo
gies in detail. A limited number of copies are available from the

U.S. ACTIVITIES .DOCUMENTED NNW DIR,E TORY
The 1996 edition of a popular NIST directory summarizes the stan
dard activities of more than 700 organizations in the United States,
ineluding approximately 80 federal agencies and 620 private-sec
tor groups. The new directory is the seveuth in a series started in
1941. Its largest section contains an alphabetical listing of ap
proximately 620 non-government organizations that develop stan
dards or contribute to the standardization process by working with
other organizations, or arc sources of documents and information.
Each listing includes the type of organization, the scope of its
standards and standardization activities (whether voluntary or
mandatory), the availability of its standards and its other confor
mity assessment activities. The directory also contains a section
on sources for standard and related information; a subject index;
and listings that cover organizational aerouyms and initials, former
names and groups listed in the previous directory that are no longer
involved with standards. Copies of Standards AClivilies of Orga

In order to promote the status of poster papers, the CPEM 96 gave
a prize each day for the best poster paper. The pl;zes were do
nated by the exhibitors and given ont at the closing session.
Plan to visit our WWW-site at <http://www.eee!.nisLgov/
cpem98>.
The conference and its sponsors supported the attendance of 23
promising young scientists from aronnd the world and there were
26 Sl11dents in attendance. The conference was enhanced by cor
porate and governmental sponsorship and had an exhibit featur
ing products from 23 companies. The exhibits were in the hall
ways around the entrances to the meeting rooms and there was
very heavy interaction between the attendees and the exhibitors.
On the first evening of the conference, attendees were invited to a
reception and welcome by the Mayor of Braunschweig in the
Altstadtrathaus. The conference banquet was held in a tenth cen
tury Imperial Palace, the Kaiserpfalz, in the walled. medieval city
of Goslar, some 60 km south of Braunschweig. following a guided
walking tour of the city. Entertainment consisted of a minstrel
show followed by a sing-along.
This was a very successful conference. The Conference Digest, a
compendium of su mmaries of the presentations, is available
through the IEEE, Catalog Number 96CH35956, and selected pa
pers will be published in a speeial issne of the IEEE Transactions
on Insllumentation and Measurement in April 1997.
CPEM 1998
The CPEM 98 will be held in Renaissance Washington Hotel, Ju ly
6 - 10, 1998, with a reception Sunday evening, July 5. We have
blocked 300 rooms for the conference and are guaranteed a rate
equal to the U.S. government per diem, including taxes. The ho
tel is pleased to extend the rate to the evenings of July 3 - 5, for
those attendees interested in the lavish rndependence Day festivi
ties and spectacular lireworks that take place on the Mall.
We distributed the initial announcement of tbe conference at CPEM
96, and plan a general mailing later this month. Abstracts and
summaries for proposed papers should be received by the Con
ference Secretary January 5, 1998.
Tours of NIST laboratories will be available on Friday afternoon,
July 10. following the conference closing. An extensive Compan
ions Program is being planned, including trips to many tourist
attractions in the area as wcJl as shopping opportunities.
Because of the success of the exhibit at CPEM 96 and input from
a number of companies, we plan on having an associated equip
ment exhibit, and are in the process of developing a prospectus
for potential exbibitors. Those interested should contact the Ex
hibits Chair (see below).
We will offer free exhibit space to NCSL, lhe Measurement Sci
ence Conference, and the IEEE I&M Society.

Dear MI: Benda,
The atwched graph [Char' 1] describes the reduction of FY 1996
fundsfor the eight N/ST Laboratories. More subsu:mtia/ cuts were
made in the extramural Applied Technology and Manufacturing
Engineering Programs. The funds came in eight separate budget
allocations, some covering only two weeks, interrupted by peri
ods when we had no funds and had to send everybody home. The
N1ST budget for FY 1997 has not been passed by Congress, but
will undoubtedly containfurrher Ctlls. In spile of the cuts, we are
expected to provide the same or expanded services. If you are
interested to see the FY 1997 budget, please contact me in a few
weeks.
