Application of Bayesian Model Averaging in the Reconstruction of Past Climate Change Using PMIP3/CMIP5 Multimodel Ensemble Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: limate change simulations based on climate models are inevitably uncertain. This uncertainty typically stems from parametric and structural uncertainties in climate models as well as climate forcings. However, combining ...
Discussion: “On Global Energy Release Rate of a Permeable Crack in Piezoelectric Ceramic” (Li, S., 2003 ASME J. Appl. Mech., 70, pp. 246–252)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Soil-Slope Stability considering Effect of Soil-Strength Nonlinearity
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To estimate the factor of safety of soil slopes, the discretization technique is widely used to generate the critical slip surface under the linear Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion. However, the strength envelope of almost ...
Time Domain Wave Packet Method and Suppression of Instability Waves in Aeroacoustic Computations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new time domain methodology for Computational Aeroacoustics (CAA) is proposed. The time domain wave packet (TDWP) method employs a temporally compact broadband pulse for acoustic sources. As the radiation and transmission ...
Modeling of Advanced Combat Helmet Under Ballistic Impact
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The use of combat helmets has greatly reduced penetrating injuries and saved lives of many soldiers. However, behind helmet blunt trauma (BHBT) has emerged as a serious injury type experienced by soldiers in battlefields. ...
Three Dimensional Piezoelectricity Solutions for Uniformly Loaded Circular Plates of Functionally Graded Piezoelectric Materials With Transverse Isotropy
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper considers the bending of a uniformly loaded transversely isotropic piezoelectric circular plate with material properties being arbitrary functions of the thickness coordinate. The displacements and electric ...
Multiscale Air–Sea Interactions during TOGA COARE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two distinct intraseasonal oscillations (ISO) are found in the tropical ocean atmosphere in the western Pacific region during Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Response Experiment (TOGA COARE). The ...
Radiative–Convective Processes in Simulated Diurnal Variations ofTropical Oceanic Convection
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents an analysis of the diurnal variation of tropical oceanic convection and its associated energy cycle as simulated by an anelastic cumulus ensemble model. The model includes subgrid turbulence, cloud ...
Flow Boiling Heat Transfer of Liquid Nitrogen in Heated U Tubes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The flow boiling heat transfer characteristics of liquid nitrogen in three Utubes with different curvature ratios were investigated experimentally. The effects of inlet pressure, heat flux, and curvature ratio on heat ...
Rain Evaporation Rate Estimates from Dual-Wavelength Lidar Measurements and Intercomparison against a Model Analytical Solution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ain evaporation, while significantly contributing to moisture and heat cloud budgets, is a still poorly understood process with few measurements presently available. Multiwavelength lidars, widely employed in aerosols and ...
