Are Glacials Dry? Consequences for Paleoclimatology and for Greenhouse Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractPast cold climates are often thought to have been drier than today on land, which appears to conflict with certain recent studies projecting widespread terrestrial drying with near-future warming. However, other ...
Future Summer Drying in the U.S. Corn Belt and the Role of Midlatitude Storm Tracks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Mechanism of Future Spring Drying in the Southwestern United States in CMIP5 Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe net surface water budget, precipitation minus evaporation (P ? E), shows a clear seasonal cycle in the U.S. Southwest with a net gain of surface water (positive P ? E) in the cold half of the year (October?March) ...
Force-Induced Deformation Mechanism for Cylindrical Shell Thin-Walled Parts Milling With Ice Supporting: Modeling and Prediction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Improving the rigidity of the process system in the cutting region of thin-walled parts is a challenging problem to ensure machining accuracy. For limited structural space, the use of ice support is an effective method. ...
Cable Force Distribution and Motion Control for a Cable-Driven Super-Redundant Robot Under Stiffness Constraints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cable-driven super-redundant robots (CDSSR) with slender and flexible bodies have wide application potential in narrow spaces. However, the control accuracy of the robot is affected by the instability of the operating ...
Climate Variability and Change of Mediterranean-Type Climates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractMediterranean-type climates are defined by temperate, wet winters, and hot or warm dry summers and exist at the western edges of five continents in locations determined by the geography of winter storm tracks and ...
An Unexpected Decline in Spring Atmospheric Humidity in the Interior Southwestern United States and Implications for Forest Fires
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Causes of Increasing Aridification of the Mediterranean Region in Response to Rising Greenhouse Gases
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he hydrological cycle in the Mediterranean region, as well as its change over the coming decades, is investigated using the Interim European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts Re-Analysis (ERA-Interim) and phase 5 ...
Prediction of Comprehensive Thermal Error of a Preloaded Ball Screw on a Gantry Milling Machine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The conception of the comprehensive thermal error of servo axes is given. Thermal characteristics of a preloaded ball screw on a gantry milling machine is investigated, and the error and temperature data are obtained. The ...
Suppression Mechanism and Prediction Model of Top Burr in Metal Milling Under Ice Boundary Constraint
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: During metal milling, top burrs will inevitably appear on the edge of the workpiece, which seriously reduces the edge quality and assembly accuracy of the workpiece, thereby reducing the service performance of the product. ...
