RISLocomotion of a Mini Bristle Robot With Inertial Excitation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper presents a theory of vibratory locomotion, a prototype, and the results of experiments on mini robot, which moves as a result of inertial excitation provided by two electric motors. The robot is equipped with ...
Worm Gear Drives With Adjustable Backlash
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This article presents the design of patented worm gear drives, which allow backlash adjustment or elimination by using specially designed worms and worm wheels. Many of the presented solutions allow backlash adjustment ...
Airborne Radar Doppler Spectrum Width as a Scale-Dependent Turbulence Metric
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Bayesian Model Verification of NWP Ensemble Forecasts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: orecasts of convective precipitation have large uncertainties. To consider the forecast uncertainties of convection-permitting models, a convection-permitting ensemble prediction system (EPS) based on the Consortium for ...
Liquefaction of Seabeds under Progressive Waves Excitation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental study on seabed liquefaction under progressive waves. To analyze the potential of the soil to liquefy, the position of the critical state line (CSL) was determined in a ...
A Locking Compliant Device Inspired by the Anatomy of the Spine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A device reminiscent of the mammalian spine has been designed and built with the ability to lock each individual joint in a string of ball joints. The assembly may be controlled in a manner ...
Operational Convective-Scale Numerical Weather Prediction with the COSMO Model: Description and Sensitivities
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ince April 2007, the numerical weather prediction model, COSMO (Consortium for Small Scale Modelling), has been used operationally in a convection-permitting configuration, named COSMO-DE, at the Deutscher Wetterdienst ...
Correcting Himawari-8 Advanced Himawari Imager Data for the Production of Vivid True-Color Imagery
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractObservations of top-of-atmosphere radiances from the Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI) blue, green, and red spectral bands can be used to produce high-temporal-resolution, true-color imagery at 1-km spatial resolution ...
The Operational Global Icosahedral–Hexagonal Gridpoint Model GME: Description and High-Resolution Tests
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The German Weather Service (Deutscher Wetterdienst) has recently developed a new operational global numerical weather prediction model, named GME, based on an almost uniform icosahedral?hexagonal grid. The GME gridpoint ...
meeting summary: Third COMPARE Workshop: A Model Intercomparison Experiment of Tropical Cyclone Intensity and Track Prediction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Third Comparison of Mesoscale Prediction and Research Experiment (COMPARE) workshop was held in Tokyo, Japan, on 13?15 December 1999, cosponsored by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA), Japan Science and Technology ...
