Analysis on Effectiveness of Fixed Partition Policy in Optimizing Inventory Routing
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: For the most common distribution system which composed of one-warehouse and multi-retailer, started with discussing the basic idea, the Fixed Partition Policy (FPP) under the best, the worst, and general conditions based ...
Study on Numerical Simulation of Crosswind Effects Arising from External Flow-field of Rotating-wheels
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To study the effect of crosswind on the traffic safety, taking a
Direct Evaluation of Pressure Distribution of Frictionless Axisymmetric Indentation Problems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The pressure distribution between a rigid frictionless axisymmetric punch and an elastic half-space can be evaluated if the punch shape can be expressed by a polynomial function. However, there ...
An Extension of Hertz’s Theory in Contact Mechanics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hertz’s theory, developed in 1881, remains the foundation for the analysis of most contact problems. In this paper, we consider the axisymmetric normal contact of two elastic bodies, and the ...
The Effect of a Rigid Elliptic Inclusion on the Bending of a Thick Elastic Plate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effect of a rigid elliptic inclusion on both plain bending and pure twist of a thick elastic plate is investigated on the basis of Reissner’s plate theory [1, 2]. Comparison is made for ...
On the Role of Temperature and Salinity Data Assimilation to Constrain a Coupled Physical–Biogeochemical Model in the Baltic Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: three-dimensional variational data assimilation (3DVAR) method is implemented in a coupled physical?biogeochemical (CPB) model in the Baltic Sea. This study carries out a 10-yr assimilation experiment with satellite sea ...
A New Parameterization of an Asymmetry Factor of Cirrus Clouds for Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The aspect ratio (AR) of a nonspherical ice particle is identified as the key microphysical parameter to determine its asymmetry factor for solar radiation. The mean effective AR is defined for cirrus clouds containing ...
An Accurate Parameterization of the Solar Radiative Properties of Cirrus Clouds for Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An accurate parameterization of the solar radiative properties of cirrus clouds is developed based on improved light scattering calculations. Here 28 ice crystal size distributions from in situ aircraft observations in ...
Essential Ingredients to the Dynamics of Westerly Wind Bursts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractWesterly wind bursts (WWBs) are brief, anomalously westerly winds in the tropical Pacific that play a role in the dynamics of ENSO through their forcing of ocean Kelvin waves. They have been associated with atmospheric ...
