Municipal Landfill Biodegradation and Settlement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Landfills are frequently considered for urban development, but have limited end uses due to large differential settlements, leachate generation, and gas emissions. Current landfill design with top- and bottom-liner systems ...
Notched-Bar Creep Rupture of a Cast Heat-Resistant Alloy at Temperatures Where Ductility Is Limited
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Rupture life of a cast nickel-base alloy was increased by the presence of a mild notch even for test temperatures and nominal stresses at which unnotched specimens had fracture elongations of ...
High-Performance Computing and Analysis-Led Development of High Efficiency Dilute Opposed Piston Gasoline Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Pinnacle is developing a multicylinder 1.2 L gasoline engine for automotive applications using high-performance computing (HPC) and analysis methods. Pinnacle and Oak Ridge National Laboratory executed large-scale ...
Targeted Dropwindsondes in Complex Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The dropwindsonde (or dropsonde) is a frequently utilized tool in geophysical research and its use over ocean and flat terrain is a reliable and well-established practice. Its use in complex terrain, however, is complicated ...
Testing a Mobile Version of a Cross-Chain Loran Atmospheric (M-CLASS) Sounding System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We have Rested the NCAR Cross-Chain LORAN Atmospheric Sounding System (CLASS) in a fully mobile configuration, which we call M-CLASS. The sondes use LORAN-C navigation signals to allow calculation of balloon position and ...
