Abstract: A numerical assessment on the thermal stress in a threedimensional (3D) microelectronic package structure is performed. The objectives are to study how the chip stack/microbump assembly responds to thermal mismatch induced ...

Abstract: he problem of flow moving purely in the azimuthal direction on a sphere is considered. An exact solution for an incompressible (constant density), inviscid fluid, which admits a velocity profile below the surface and along ...

Abstract: he general problem of an ocean on a rotating sphere is considered. The governing equations for an inviscid, incompressible fluid, written in spherical coordinates that are fixed at a point on the rotating Earth, together ...

Abstract: AbstractA systematic development, based on the construction of an asymptotic solution of the Euler equation, written in rotating, spherical coordinates (φ,?,r), is used to investigate the flows of the type seen in the ...

Abstract: With the growth and acceptance of liquid immersion cooling as a viable thermal management technique for high performance microelectronics, fundamental questions regarding the nature of the flow within the system will need ...

Abstract: This paper provides an overview of the trials and successes in the development of an autonomous balloon instrument platform (smart balloon) and reviews scientific insights gained through its employment as a marker in a ...

Abstract: During the spring-summer of 1979, six lightning warning devices were evaluated in a side-by-side comparison study at three test sites. Stock commercial devices were selected based upon distinct concepts of operation. The ...

Abstract: Radiative transfer in a polluted urban atmosphere has been studied using a dynamic model. The diurnal nature of radiative transfer for summer conditions has been simulated for an urban area 40 km in extent and the effects ...

Abstract: In many coastal areas, high water tables are present, complicating installation of some stormwater best management practices (BMPs) that rely on infiltration. Regional estimates of the seasonal high water table (SHWT) often ...

Abstract: The two-dimensional version of the Goddard Cumulus Ensemble (GCE) model is used to simulate two South China Sea Monsoon Experiment (SCSMEX) convective periods [18?26 May (prior to and during the monsoon onset) and 2?11 ...
