Abstract: Diabatic heating by latent heat release and longwave radiation and corresponding generation of available potential energy have been computed for a tornado-producing cyclone system. Also, the contributions of two subareas, ...

Abstract: Eddy kinetic energy budgets are presented for both moist and dry 48 h forecasts and corresponding observations of a developing, winter extratropical cyclone. Forecasts are from the Drexel-NCAR Limited Area Mesoscale ...

Abstract: The role of static stability (σ) is diagnosed for an intense extratropical cyclone that developed over the central United States during 9?11 January 1975. Results indicate that minimum σ, values occurred in the lower ...

Abstract: We apply Bayesian inference to instrument calibration and experimental-data uncertainty analysis for the specific application of measuring radiative intensity with a narrow-angle radiometer. We develop a physics-based ...

Abstract: Quantification of uncertainty in the simulation results becomes difficult for complex real-world systems with little or no experimental data. This paper describes a validation and uncertainty quantification (VUQ) approach ...

Abstract: The objective of this research is to develop a novel, multimaterial additive manufacturing technique for fabricating laminated polymer nanocomposite structures that have characteristic lengthscales in the tens of millimeters ...
