Abstract: Following the analysis of Klemp and Lilly, a study is made of the intensification and reflection of mountain waves when the shear of the basic wind profile is nonuniform. A two-layer atmospheric model is treated, and the ...

Abstract: There are many island stations that routinely observe sea fog around the Korean peninsula. Historical daytime sea fog data were used to investigate the relationships between sea fog occurrence and its associated environmental ...

Abstract: For leak-before-break (LBB) assessment, an idealized through-wall crack (TWC) is typically postulated to determine the critical crack length of cracked piping. However, such an idealization in terms of crack shape can lead ...

Abstract: Failures in IT electronics are often caused by falling or external shocks during transportation. These failures cause customers to mistrust the reliability of the products. Many manufacturers of IT electronics have not ...

Abstract: For the design of a transmission piping system, a stress intensification factor (SIF) is generally used for the stress calculations of piping components due to external forces, and the solutions for the single-walled piping ...

Abstract: Ultrasuper critical (USC) thermal plants are now in operation around the globe. Their applications include superheaters and reheaters, which generally require high temperature/pressure conditions. To withstand these harsh ...
