Batch Process and Sensitivity Analysis of Collision Detection of Planar Convex Polygons in Motion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new method for formulation, solution, and sensitivity analysis of collision detection of convex objects in motion is presented. The collision detection problem is formulated as a parametric programming problem governed ...
On the Verification and Comparison of Extreme Rainfall Indices from Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The interpretation of model precipitation output (e.g., as a gridpoint estimate versus as an areal mean) has a large impact on the evaluation and comparison of simulated daily extreme rainfall indices from climate models. ...
The Characteristics of Cloud Fields Associated with Midlatitude Circulation Systems in a General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Cloud fields and concurrent dynamical structures associated with extratropical cyclones in a general circulation model are investigated with emphasis on the cool season (October?March). An ensemble approach is used for ...
A Finite Difference Lattice Boltzmann Method to Simulate Multidimensional Subcontinuum Heat Conduction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
A Network Interference Approach to Analyzing Change Propagation in Requirements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Requirements are frequently revised due to the iterative nature of the design process. If not properly managed, these changes may result in financial and time losses due to undesired propagating effect. Currently, predictive ...
Regional Perspective on Mechanisms for Tropical Precipitation Frequency and Intensity under Global Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: rom a global point of view, a shift toward more intense precipitation is often found in observations and global warming simulations. However, similar to changes in mean precipitation, these changes associated with precipitation ...
Evolution of Large-Scale Circulation and Heating during the First Transition of Asian Summer Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study investigates the characteristics of large-scale circulation and heating during the first transition of the Asian summer monsoon by a compositing technique. The first transition is characterized by a sudden change ...
Near Time-Optimal Real-Time Path Following Under Error Tolerance and System Constraints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An online fast path following control algorithm subject to contouring error tolerance and other prototypical constraints, analogous to a racing car within track boundaries, is presented. A receding horizon quadratic ...
Surge Vibration-Induced Nonlinear Behavior Regulation of Power Amplifier for Magnetic Bearing in a 315 kW Centrifugal Compressor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The severe vibration induced by surge and rotating stall is an obstacle to the stability of a magnetically suspended centrifugal compressor (MSCC). In order to suppress the severe vibration caused by surge instability, ...
Behavior of Amorphous Peaty Soil under Long-Term Cyclic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A series of one-way and long-term (1, cycles) cyclic triaxial tests was carried out to investigate the cyclic behavior of peaty soil from Kunming, China. The organic components of the peaty soil were generally highly ...
