RISFormation of an Azores Current Due to Mediterranean Overflow in a Modeling Study of the North Atlantic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A mechanism for the formation of the Azores Current is proposed. On the basis of observations and model results, it is argued that the primary cause of the Azores Current is the water mass transformation associated with ...
Analysis and Computation of Two Body Impact in Three Dimensions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A formal impulse-based analysis is presented for the collision of two rigid bodies at single contact point under Coulomb's friction in three dimensions (3D). The tangential impulse at the contact is known to be linear in ...
Sensitivity of the Ventilation Process in the North Pacific to Eddy-Induced Tracer Transport
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A coarse-resolution isopycnal model coupled with a bulk mixed layer model is used to examine the effect of isopycnal thickness diffusion, which parameterizes the subgrid-scale eddy-induced tracer transport, on ventilation ...
Flowrate Formulation of Deviation Function Based Gerotor Pumps
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper derives formulas for evaluating the flowrate of gerotor pumps. The flowrate formulas are based on a deviation function, and the pitch and generating curves can be circular or ...
On the Generation of Analytical Noncircular Multilobe Internal Pitch Curves
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A method for the design of general analytical noncircular multilobe internal pitch curves is presented. The method is based on a reshaping algorithm. A selected monotonic function can be assigned ...
A New Gerotor Design Method With Switch Angle Assignability
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Gerotor is generated by an oval shape generating curve, which is attached to a large pitch circle rolling on an inside smaller one. For gerotor design, existing methods are able to handle ...
Chlorofluorocarbon Constraints on North Atlantic Ventilation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The North Atlantic Ocean vigorously ventilates the ocean interior. Thermocline and deep water masses are exposed to atmospheric contact there and are sequestered in two principal classes: Subtropical Mode Water (STMW: 26.5 ...
Elastic–Adhesive Interface Effect on Effective Elastic Moduli of Fiber-Reinforced Asphalt Concrete with Large Deformation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A methodology has been developed to account for the elastic–adhesive interface effect on the effective elastic moduli of fiber-reinforced asphalt concrete. To consider the large deformation of asphalt mixtures, the nonlinear ...
A Model Analysis of the Behavior of the Mediterranean Water in the North Atlantic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The behavior of the Mediterranean Water in the North Atlantic Ocean sector of a global ocean general circulation model is explored, starting from its entry point at the Strait of Gibraltar. The analysis focuses primarily ...
Sensitivity of Simulated Sea Breezes to Initial Conditions in Complex Coastal Regions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: esoscale simulations of sea breezes are sensitive to the analysis product used to initialize the simulations, primarily due to the representation of the coastline and the coastal sea surface temperatures (SSTs) in the ...
