Instability of Viscoelastic Annular Liquid Jets in a Radial Electric Field
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Research on the instability of viscoelastic annular liquid jets in a radial electric field has been carried out. The analytical dimensionless dispersion relation between unstable growth rate and wave number is derived by ...
Reexamining the MJO Moisture Mode Theories with Normalized Phase Evolutions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A normalization method is applied to MJO-scale precipitation and column integrated moist static energy (MSE) anomalies to clearly illustrate the phase evolution of MJO. It is found that the MJO peak phases do not move ...
Matrix System for the Analysis of Planetary Transmissions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a new general analysis method for planetary gear transmission systems. Instead of studying portions of a transmission, one can analyze a whole planetary transmission system ...
Effect of Nanozinc Oxide and Organic Expanded Vermiculite Compound on Antiaging Properties of SBR Modified Bitumen
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This work focuses on the effect of nanozinc oxide (nano-ZnO) and organic expanded vermiculite (OEVMT) compound on physical and aging properties of styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) modified bitumen. The binders were aged ...
Causes of Interdecadal Increase in the Intraseasonal Rainfall Variability over Southern China around the Early 1990s
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The southern China (SC) summer rainfall exhibits prominent intraseasonal variability, which exhibits a significant increase in the early 1990s with the turning point at 1993. The SC intraseasonal rainfall events could be ...
Two Distinct Types of 10–30-Day Persistent Heavy Rainfall Events over the Yangtze River Valley
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Rainfall Infiltration in Chinese Loess by In Situ Observation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study was conducted to investigate the recharge of surface water to groundwater in the Chinese loess area. A monitoring site was set up in Zhengning County, Gansu Province, China. The results show that the shallow ...
Assessment of Snowmaking Conditions Based on Meteorological Reconstruction in the Beijing–Zhangjiakou Mountain Area of North China in 1978–2017
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Effect of Thermochromic Materials on the Properties of SBS-Modified Asphalt Mixture
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Styrene-butadiene-styrene copolymers (SBS)–modified asphalt mixture is widely used in high grade roads because of its excellent comprehensive performance. However, the black characteristics and high temperature susceptibility ...
Numerical and Experimental Study of Unsteady Flow in a Large Centrifugal Pump With Stay Vanes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The unsteady flow inside a large centrifugal pump with stay vanes was analyzed in this study. The static performance and pressure fluctuations in the pump were numerically predicted and were compared with experimental data. ...
