RISSystem Reliability Analysis of Soil Slopes Using an Advanced Kriging Metamodel and Quasi–Monte Carlo Simulation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of the system reliability analysis of soil slopes is of great importance in engineering design. An advanced kriging metamodel integrated with the quasi–Monte Carlo simulation (AKQMCS) ...
Diagnosing Subsurface Vertical Velocities from High-Resolution Sea Surface Fields
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Cloud Classification Based on Structure Features of Infrared Images
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Some cloud structure features that can be extracted from infrared images of the sky are suggested for cloud classification. Both the features and the classifier are developed over zenithal images taken by the whole-sky ...
An Investigation of the Influences of Mesoscale Ocean Eddies on Tropical Cyclone Intensities
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he impact of mesoscale ocean eddies on tropical cyclone intensities is investigated based on a combination of observations and atmosphere?ocean coupling simulations. A statistical analysis reveals that the tropical ...
A Study of the Interaction between Typhoon Francisco (2013) and a Cold-Core Eddy. Part II: Boundary Layer Structures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In Part II of this study, the influence of an oceanic cold-core eddy on the atmospheric boundary layer structures of Typhoon Francisco (2013) is investigated, as well as a comparison with the cold wake effect. Results show ...
Enhanced Effects of Tourmaline on Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor–Based Partial Nitrification Process
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper compares two different carriers, polyurethane foam (PU) and polyurethane foam loaded with tourmaline (TPU), for the partial nitrification (PN) of supernatant from an anaerobic sludge digester using moving bed ...
Understanding and Modeling the Activity-Travel Behavior of University Commuters at a Large Canadian University
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper examines the daily activity-travel behavior of undergraduate students, graduate students, faculty, and staff at a large university to better understand their activity travel demands for automobile, active ...
Effects of the Cold Core Eddy on Tropical Cyclone Intensity and Structure under Idealized Air–Sea Interaction Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he impacts of ocean feedback on tropical cyclones (TCs) are investigated using a coupled atmosphere?ocean model under idealized TC and cold core eddy (CCE) conditions. Results reveal negative impacts of the ocean coupling ...
Effects of Aerodynamic Damping and Gyroscopic Moments on Dynamic Responses of a Semi-Submersible Floating Vertical Axis Wind Turbine: An Experimental Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Floating vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) offer certain advantages over floating horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs), particularly in terms of the potential to lower the cost of energy. In this study, a 5 MW floating ...
Ultra-Short-Term Mooring Forces Forecasting for Floating Wind Turbines With Response-Frequency-Informed Deep Learning and On-Site Data
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Accurate dynamic response forecasting is crucial for the operational monitoring, maintenance, and dynamic control of floating wind turbines (FWT). In this study, an ultra-short-term forecasting model of mooring line tension ...
