Abstract: To improve the dynamic environment of a spacecraft, an octostrut vibration isolation platform is designed to replace the payload attach fitting, which can significantly attenuate the vibration ...

Abstract: The writers have come across a difficult stability analysis problem where there are several “strong” local minima. Several well known heuristic global minimum methods fail to locate the global minimum for this case, and ...

Abstract: The Watershed Environmental Hydrology model presents a new approach to the modeling of hydrologic processes in order to account for the effect of heterogeneity within natural watersheds. Toward this purpose, the point ...

Abstract: A newly developed watershed environmental hydrology (WEHY) model is presented as a state-of-the-art nonpoint source (NPS) model. The model consists of hydrologic and environmental modules, and describes environmentally ...
