Wind- and Wave-Driven Ocean Surface Boundary Layer in a Frontal Zone: Roles of Submesoscale Eddies and Ekman–Stokes Transport
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Wind Power Deterministic Prediction and Uncertainty Quantification Based on Interval Estimation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: With the increasing penetration of wind power into modern power systems, accurate forecast models play a crucial role in large-scale wind power consumption and power system stability. To improve the accuracy and reliability ...
Near-Natural Silviculture: Sustainable Approach for Urban Renaturalization? Assessment Based on 10 Years Recovering Dynamics and Eco-Benefits in Shanghai
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Although the near-natural silviculture approach as a method for urban renaturalization has been widely applied in the world, there have been few reports about its long-term recovering dynamics, especially its eco-benefits. ...
Experimental Study on Dynamic Response and Shock Damage of Cylindrical Shell Structures Subjected to Underwater Explosion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study investigates the dynamic linear, nonlinear responses, and shock damage of two kinds of submerged cylindrical shell models exposed to underwater spherical trinitrotoluene (TNT) charge ...
Out-of-Plane Impact Resistance Enhancement in Plane Lattice With Curved Links
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the past decades, various novel functions (i.e., negative Poisson's ratio, zero thermal expansion) have been obtained by tailoring the microstructures of the cellular structures. Among all the microstructures, the ...
Relaxation Modulus Model of Aged Asphalt Mixture
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The asphalt mixture, AC - 13 C, is aged in an oven for five different periods, and then, stress relaxation tests are conducted at
The Wavy Ekman Layer: Langmuir Circulations, Breaking Waves, and Reynolds Stress
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: arge-eddy simulations are made for the canonical Ekman layer problem of a steady wind above a uniformly rotating, constant-density ocean. The focus is on the influence of surface gravity waves: namely, the wave-averaged ...
Effect of Planetary Rotation on Oceanic Surface Boundary Layer Turbulence
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA large-eddy simulation (LES) model is configured to investigate the effect of the horizontal (northward) component of Earth?s rotation on upper-ocean turbulence. The focus is on the variability of the effect with ...
Horizontal Dispersion of Buoyant Materials in the Ocean Surface Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ABSTRACTThe horizontal dispersion of materials with a constant rising speed under the exclusive influence of ocean surface boundary layer (OSBL) flows is investigated using both three-dimensional turbulence-resolving ...
