A Recursive Algorithm for Solving the Generalized Velocities From the Momenta of Flexible Multibody Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hamilton’s equations can be used to define the dynamics of a tree configured flexible multibody system. Their states are the generalized coordinates and momenta (p,q). Numerical solution of these ...
Efficient Treatment of Gyroscopic Bodies in the Recursive Solution of Multibody Dynamics Equations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an efficient treatment of gyroscopic bodies in the recursive solution of the dynamics of an N-body system. The bodies of interest include the reaction wheels in satellites, ...
Effect of Rising and Falling K Profiles on SCC Growth Rates in High-Temperature Water
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Effects of rising and falling stress intensity factor (K) profiles on the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) growth rates of stainless steel and nickel alloys has been studied in high-temperature ...
An Automated Objective Technique For Constructing Tropical Cyclone Best Tracks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A computerized objective technique has been developed to assist in the construction of tropical cyclone postanalysis tracks. The program employs linear and second-order smoothing routines to calculate storm position and ...
Salinity‐Intrusion Forecasting System for Gambia River Estuary
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A methodology is presented for forecasting the response of salinity movement in a tidal estuary to seasonal rainfall and freshwater inflows. The forecasting procedure uses linked stochastic and deterministic models to ...
Acceptance of Mobile Technology for Citizen Science in Water Resource Management
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Dutch water management is considered highly efficient, but it faces a lack of public awareness and other certain physical challenges. One proposed strategy to deal with these challenges includes increasing citizen participation ...
Mitochondrial Dynamics in Chondrocytes and Their Connection to the Mechanical Properties of the Cytoplasm
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Background: The motion and redistribution of intracellular organelles is a fundamental process in cells. Organelle motion is a complex phenomenon that depends on a large number of variables ...
Ballistic Impact of Structural Steels at Low Temperatures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Steels are usually stronger at low temperatures than at high temperatures. But low temperatures are, particularly in combination with high strain rates and high stress triaxiality ratios, known to cause embrittlement. The ...
Assessing a New Coupled Data Assimilation System Based on the Met Office Coupled Atmosphere–Land–Ocean–Sea Ice Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: new coupled data assimilation (DA) system developed with the aim of improving the initialization of coupled forecasts for various time ranges from short range out to seasonal is introduced. The implementation here is based ...
Validation of Salinity Data from Surface Drifters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: alinity measurements from 119 surface drifters in 2007?12 were assessed; 80% [Surface Velocity Program with a barometer with a salinity sensor (SVP-BS)] and 75% [SVP with salinity (SVP-S)] of the salinity data were found ...
