  Experimentally synthesizing predicted materials in a reproducible manner remains a key bottleneck in materials science progress. Autonomous synthesis and closed loop integration of prediction and characterization can address these issues, however, this requires autonomous characterization methods for all analysis including crystallographic phase identification which currently remains a rate-limiting step. Here we demonstrate initial results in applying a collection of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis methods at scale, using a workflow running across various compute platforms from High Performance Computing (HPC) to off-premise cloud. We detail the workflow methods, compare model performance on synthetic and experimental data across a wide-array of material systems, and analyze the performance of the AI methods in comparison to manually labeled experimental data.

• Iron oxidation–reduction processes in warming permafrost soils and surface waters expose a seasonally rusting Arctic watershed

  2024-06-21 · 1 citations

  reportOpen access

  Landscape-scale changes from climate change in the Arctic affect the soil thermal regime and impact the depth to permafrost in vulnerable tundra watersheds. When top-down thaw of permafrost occurs, oxygen and porewaters infiltrate deeper in the soil column exposing fresh, previously frozen material and altering redox conditions. A gap remains in understanding how redox stratifications in thawing permafrost impact the geochemistry of watersheds in response to climate change and how investigations into redox may be scaled by coupling extensive geophysical mapping techniques. In this study, we collected soils and soil porewaters from three soil pits and surface water samples from an Arctic watershed on the North Slope of Alaska and analyzed for trace metals iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) and Fe oxidation state using bulk and microscale techniques. We also used geophysical mapping and soil thermistors to measure active layer depths across the watershed to relate accelerating permafrost thaw to watershed geochemistry. Overall, evidence showed that Fe and Mn could be useful as geochemical indicators of permafrost thaw and release of Fe(II) from thawing permafrost and further oxidation to Fe(III) could translate to a higher degree of seasonal rusting coinciding with the warming and thawing of near surface-permafrost.

• Distance-Based Throwing Programs for Baseball Players From Little League to High School

  Pediatric Physical Therapy · 2019-06-20 · 6 citations

  article

  An estimated 2.4 million children play baseball in 80 countries. The majority of these children have experienced pain with throwing. A key component to a successful rehabilitation after an upper extremity injury for a baseball player is an interval throwing program, which allows a youth athlete to increase the demands of throwing in a progressive and controlled manner. Numerous interval throwing programs are designed for baseball players of high school age and older, but few exist for the baseball player who is skeletally immature. Our interval throwing programs take into consideration various field dimensions, injury types, and position requirements for youth. Our goal is to create a guide for rehabilitation specialists and players to return to throwing as quickly and safely as possible.
