Gravity Waves in a Forest: A Linear Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Wavelike oscillations are a common form of air motion in the forest canopy at night. This paper investigates the canopy wave phenomenon using a two-dimensional inviscid linear wave model taking into account the drag force ...
Finite-Amplitude Equilibration of Baroclinic Waves on a Jet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A two-layer quasigeostrophic model is used to study the equilibration of baroclinic waves. In this model, if the background flow is relaxed toward a jetlike profile, a finite-amplitude baroclinic wave solution can be ...
Experimental Investigation of Thermal Load in High Speed Direct Injection Diesel Engine Under the Control of Various Engine Performance Parameters
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Multiple injection strategies are being widely utilized to reduce the vibration, noise, and particle emission in diesel engines. A considerable amount of research related to attempts to increase ...
Chemical Temperature Integration
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The sugar-inversion method (Pallmann method) of deriving mean temperatures related the reaction velocity of sucrose hydrolysis to temperature by means of an Arrhenius-type equation. The method was tested for precision, ...
Impact of Neighborhood Walkability on Trip Generation and Trip Chaining: Case of Los Angeles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to test whether a compact neighborhood design is associated with trip-chaining behavior. Trip chaining is regarded as a growing phenomenon in travel and activity behavior because people seek ...
Discussion of “Horton Infiltration Equation Revisited” by A. Osman Akan (September/October, 1992, Vol. 118, No. 5)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Discussion of “Construction Robot Path-Planning for Earthwork Operations” by Sung-Keun Kim, Jeffrey S. Russell, and Kyo-Jin Koo
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Concept-Based Method for Extracting Valid Subsets from an EXPRESS Schema
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An EXPRESS schema is a data schema defined in EXPRESS, an international standard language for defining product data schemas. This technical paper proposes and formally defines a set of conditions for generating a minimum ...
What Information Can or Cannot Be Exchanged?
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: What information can or cannot be exchanged between different systems? Since the dawn of the computer-aided design and engineering era, interoperability has been an issue. The exchangeable set of information between different ...
