The Remote Effect of Typhoon Megi (2010) on the Heavy Rainfall over Northeastern Taiwan
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he goal of this work is to improve understanding of the mechanisms leading to a heavy rainfall event under the combined influences of the outer circulation of Typhoon Megi (2010), the Asian monsoon, and the topography of ...
Radiative Effects of Cloud-Type Variations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Radiative flux changes induced by the occurrence of different cloud types are investigated using International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project cloud data and a refined radiative transfer model from National Aeronautics ...
Sensitivity of Atmospheric Radiative Heating Rate Profiles to Variations of Cloud Layer Overlap
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Three different cloud overlap schemes are applied to the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) vertical distribution of clouds in the radiative transfer model from the National Aeronautics and Space ...
Investigating a Mixed-Initiative Workflow for Digital Mind-Mapping
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we report on our investigation of human-AI collaboration for mind-mapping. We specifically focus on problem exploration in pre-conceptualization stages of early design. Our approach leverages the notion of ...
Design Ideation Through Speculative Fiction: Foundational Principles and Exploratory Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The objective of this study is to position speculative fiction as a broader framework to stimulate, facilitate, and study engineering design ideation. For this, we first present a comprehensive and detailed review of the ...
Reflect–Express–Transform: Investigating Speech-Based Iterative Digital Design for Young Designers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We investigate speech-based input as a means to enable reflective thinking for younger individuals (middle- and high-school students) during design iterations. Verbalization offers a unique way to externalize ideas in early ...
Experimental Study of Load Variations on Pressure Fluctuations in a Prototype Reversible Pump Turbine in Generating Mode
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The characteristics of pressure fluctuations in a prototype reversible pump turbine (RPT) is investigated within a wide range of load conditions with a focus on the low-load condition (e.g., 25% of rated power) with the ...
Assessment of a Regional Flood Disaster Indicator via an Entropy Weighting Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: With the limited resources for disaster prevention and reduction, it is crucial that a flooding disaster hazard level is established. Therefore, this study establishes the flooding disaster indicator (FDI), which serves ...
Assessment of Conditional Symmetric Instability from Global Reanalysis Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractSlantwise convection, the process by which moist symmetric instability is released, has often been linked to banded clouds and precipitation, especially in frontal zones within extratropical cyclones. Studies also ...
Uncertainty and Predictability of Tropical Cyclone Rainfall Based on Ensemble Simulations of Typhoon Sinlaku (2008)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: sing special data from the field campaign of 2008 and an ensemble Kalman filter?based vortex initialization method, this study explores the impact of different track clusters categorized under the ensemble simulations of ...
