Multidecadal Variability of North China Aridity and Its Relationship to PDO during 1900–2010
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: orth China has undergone a severe drying trend since the 1950s, but whether this trend is natural variability or anthropogenic change remains unknown due to the short data length. This study extends the analysis of dry?wet ...
Human Influences on Changes in the Temperature Seasonality in Mid- to High-Latitude Land Areas
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he annual cycle is the largest variability for many climate variables outside the tropics. Whether human activities have affected the annual cycle at the regional scale is unclear. In this study, long-term changes in the ...
Changes in the Amplitude of the Temperature Annual Cycle in China and Their Implication for Climate Change Research
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: limate change is not only reflected in the changes in annual means of climate variables but also in the changes in their annual cycles (seasonality), especially in the regions outside the tropics. In this study, the ensemble ...
Twentieth-Century Trends in the Annual Cycle of Temperature across the Northern Hemisphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe annual cycle of surface air temperature is examined across Northern Hemisphere land areas (north of 25°N) by comparing the results from the Climatic Research Unit Time Series (CRU TS) dataset against four ...
On the Tribological Behavior and Surface Analysis of a Sliding PSZ Ceramic-Steel Pair
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Using a ring-on-block wear test machine, friction and wear tests were carried out on a PSZ (partially stabilized zirconia) ceramic-steel pair under the lubrication conditions of paraffin oil and ...
Study on Tribology of Silicon Nitride Ceramic Tappet
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to elucidate the tribological behavior of the Si3 N4 ceramic used in automobile engine, a series of tests was carried out to measure the friction coefficient and wear resistance of ...
On Changing El Niño: A View from Time-Varying Annual Cycle, Interannual Variability, and Mean State
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study investigates changes in the frequency of ENSO, especially the prolonged 1990?95 El Niño event, in the context of secular changes in the annual cycle, ENSO interannual variability, and background mean state of the ...
Two Approaches for Statistical Prediction of Non-Gaussian Climate Extremes: A Case Study of Macao Hot Extremes during 1912–2012
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Gaussian assumption has been widely used without testing in many previous studies on climate variability and change that have used traditional statistical methods to estimate linear trends, diagnose physical mechanisms, ...
Short-Term Prediction of Remaining Life for Lithium-Ion Battery Based on Adaptive Hybrid Model With Long Short-Term Memory Neural Network and Optimized Particle Filter
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: As an important energy storage device, lithium-ion batteries have vast applications in daily production and life. Therefore, the remaining useful life (RUL) prediction of such batteries is of great significance, which can ...
Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of Material Removal Rate in Magnetorheological Shear Thickening Polishing of Ti–6Al–4V Alloy
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Magnetorheological shear thickening polishing (MRSTP) is a novel hybrid polishing method that combines the magnetorheological effect and the shear thickening effect. It has great potential for ultra-precision machining of ...
