Using Vanes to Reduce Flow Separation and Head Loss in Warped Transition
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Irrigation and water-supply systems commonly need channel transitions to provide changes of channel section. Warped transition (WT) is an option for transitioning from a narrow rectangular channel to a wide trapezoidal ...
Effect of Rate Sensitivity on Necking Behavior of a Laminated Tube Under Dynamic Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An elasticviscoplastic based finite element model has been developed to study the necking behavior of tube expansion for rate independent materials, rate dependent monolithic materials, and laminated materials during dynamic ...
Gradients of Atmospheric Temperature and Humidity Controlled by Local Urban Land-Use Intensity in Boston
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ities are home to the majority of humanity. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms that control urban climates has substantial societal importance to a variety of sectors, including public health and energy management. ...
Microstructural Modeling of P91 Martensitic Steel Under Uniaxial Loading Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The changing face of power generation and the increasingly severe conditions experienced by power plant materials require an improved understanding of the deformation and failure response of power plant materials. Important ...
Comprehensive Study of Optical, Physical, Chemical, and Radiative Properties of Total Columnar Atmospheric Aerosols over China: An Overview of Sun–Sky Radiometer Observation Network (SONET) Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAn overview of Sun?Sky Radiometer Observation Network (SONET) measurements in China is presented. Based on observations at 16 distributed SONET sites in China, atmospheric aerosol parameters are acquired via ...
The GCM–Reality Intercomparison Project for SPARC (GRIPS): Scientific Issues and Initial Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To investigate the effects of the middle atmosphere on climate, the World Climate Research Programme is supporting the project "Stratospheric Processes and their Role in Climate" (SPARC). A central theme of SPARC, to examine ...
Cloud Banding and Winds in Intense European Cyclones: Results from the DIAMET Project
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Diabatic Influences on Mesoscale Structures in Extratropical Storms (DIAMET) project aims to improve forecasts of high-impact weather in extratropical cyclones through field measurements, high-resolution numerical ...
