Control of Platoons of Nonholonomic Vehicles Using Redundant Manipulator Analogs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, we consider the control of platoons of cooperating nonholonomic vehicles. Using techniques based on redundant manipulator control, the platoon is treated as a single entity with ...
Mitigating Blockage Effects on Flow Over a Circular Cylinder in an Adaptive-Wall Wind Tunnel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effect of wall streamlining on flow development over a circular cylinder was investigated experimentally in an adaptive-wall wind tunnel. Experiments were carried out for a Reynolds number ...

Domain-Independent Attribution. Part I: Reconstructing the Wind from Estimates of Vorticity and Divergence Using Free Space Green's Functions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Free space Green's functions may be used to reconstruct the wind over a limited domain from vorticity, divergence, and the wind at the boundary of the domain. When standard finite-difference estimates of the vorticity/divergence ...
Domain-Independent Attribution. Part II: Its Value in the Verification of Dynamical Theories of Frontal Waves and Frontogenesis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Theories of frontogenesis and frontal waves describe development in terms of the interaction of a basic state or environmental flow with a frontal flow. The basic-state flow may comprise a large-scale confluent?diffluent ...
Divergent Eddy Heat Fluxes in the Kuroshio Extension at 144°–148°E. Part II: Spatiotemporal Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Kuroshio Extension System Study (KESS) provided 16 months of observations to quantify divergent eddy heat flux (DEHF) from a mesoscale-resolving array of current- and pressure-equipped inverted echo sounders. KESS ...
Comparison of Manual Wave Prediction Models
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A comparison of three manual wave prediction models is carried out using 1972 waverider data from two deep‐water locations in Lake Ontario. The Sverdrup‐Munk‐Bretschneider model is compared with the JONSWAP model and with ...
Comparison of Ion-Selective and Carbon Fiber Mercury Film Microelectrodes for Cadmium Measurement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Cadmium ion-selective microelectrodes and carbon fiber mercury film microelectrodes were fabricated and compared in this research. In order to determine whether either microelectrode could be used in biofilm microenvironmental ...
