A Study on the Behavior of Single- and Twin-Gasketed Flange Joint Under External Bending Load
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Gasketed flange joints are widely used in pressure vessels and piping systems. They are subjected to bending load due to differential thermal expansion, wind load, self-weight, etc., in addition to assembly and internal ...
Observations and Numerical Simulations of Precipitation Development in Seeded Clouds over the Sierra Nevada
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The evolution of precipitation in seeded wintertime orographically induced convective and stratiform clouds with embedded convection were studied using in situ observations and particle growth and trajectory models. The ...
Numerical Investigation of the Origin of Anomalous Tensile Twinning in Magnesium Alloys
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: It has been observed that tension twins (TTs) are triggered in rolled polycrystalline magnesium alloys under tensile loading applied along the rolling direction (RD) or the transverse direction. This is surprising because ...

Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: It has been observed that tension twins (TTs) are triggered in rolled polycrystalline magnesium alloys under tensile loading applied along the rolling direction (RD) or the transverse direction. This is surprising because ...
Microwave and Infrared Simulations of an Intense Convective System and Comparison with Aircraft Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A three-dimensional cloud model, radiative transfer model-based simulation system is tested and validated against the aircraft-based radiance observations of an intense convective system in southeastern Virginia on 29 June ...
Microwave Simulations of a Tropical Rainfall System with a Three-Dimensional Cloud Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A three-dimensional cloud model-microwave radiative transfer model combination is used to study the relations among the precipitation and other microphysical characteristics of a tropical oceanic squall line and the upwelling ...
Aircraft Microwave Observations and Simulations of Deep Convection from 18 to 183 GHz. Part II: Model Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In Part II of the 29 June 1986 case study, a radiative transfer model is used to simulate the aircraft multichannel microwave brightness temperatures presented in Part I and to study the convective storm structure. ...
Aircraft Microwave Observations and Simulations of Deep Convection from 18 to 183 GHz. Part I: Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Aircraft passive microwave observations of deep atmospheric convection at frequencies between 18 and 183 GHz are presented in conjunction with visible and infrared satellite and aircraft observations and ground-based radar ...
Cloud Model-Based Simulation of Spaceborne Radar Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Simulations of observations from potential spaceborne radars are made based on storm structure generated from the three-dimensional (3D) Goddard cumulus ensemble model simulation of an intense overland convective system. ...
