Single Point Power Mooring Composite Cables for Wave Energy Converters
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the analysis and design of singlepoint powermooring cables applied to wave energy converters (WECs). A mooring cable design process is suggested, and effects of cable crosssectional layout, material ...
Flash Flood Forecasting for Small Urban Watersheds in the Baltimore Metropolitan Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The utility of distributed hydrologic models in combination with high-resolution Weather Surveillance Radar-1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) rainfall estimates for flash flood forecasting in urban drainage basins is examined through ...
A Robust Incubator to Improve Access to Microbiological Culture in Low Resource Environments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: To help address the limitations of operating conventional microbiological culture incubators in low resource environments, a new incubator design was developed and tested to meet the requirements of operation in laboratories ...
Extraordinary Flood Response of a Small Urban Watershed to Short-Duration Convective Rainfall
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The 9.1 km2 Moores Run watershed in Baltimore, Maryland, experiences floods with unit discharge peaks exceeding 1 m3 s?1 km?2 12 times yr?1, on average. Few, if any, drainage basins in the continental United States have a ...
Chip Morphology and Chip Formation Mechanisms During Machining of ECAE-Processed Titanium
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Severe plastic deformation (SPD) processing such as equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE) has been pioneered to produce ultrafine grained (UFG) metals for improved mechanical and physical properties. However, understanding ...
