RISHigh-Pass Filtered Eddy-Viscosity Models for Large-Eddy Simulations of Compressible Wall-Bounded Flows
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this contribution we consider large-eddy simulation (LES) using the high-pass filtered (HPF) Smagorinsky model of a spatially developing supersonic turbulent boundary layer at a Mach number ...
Compression Behavior and Material Parameters of Radiata Pine at Different Orientations to the Grain
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: For investigations using finite-element methods, e.g., connection details under compression stresses, one needs to know not only the compression strength, but also the complete stress-strain behavior, including the hardening ...
The Effect of Vorticity-Profile Shape on the Instability of a Two-Dimensional Vortex
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple linear numerical model is used to study the effect of the shape of the vertical vorticity profile on the stability characteristics of a two-dimensional vortex. In all cases, the basic-state vorticity is confined ...
Behavior and Design of Concentrically Loaded Pultruded Angle Struts
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of a study pertaining to the short-term behavior of concentrically loaded single angle members made of pultruded fiber-reinforced polymeric materials. Seven E-glass/polyester and 18 ...
Investigation of Different Operation Strategies to Provide Balance Energy With an Industrial Combined Heat and Power Plant Using Dynamic Simulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Intermittency of renewable electricity generation poses a challenge to thermal power plants. While power plants in the public sector see a decrease in operating hours, the utilization of industrial power plants is mostly ...
Snowmelt on the Greenland Ice Sheet as Derived from Passive Microwave Satellite Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The melt extent of the snow on the Greenland ice sheet is of considerable importance to the ice sheet?s mass and energy balance, as well as Arctic and global climates. By comparing passive microwave satellite data to field ...
Variability of AVHRR-Derived Clear-Sky Surface Temperature over the Greenland Ice Sheet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer is used to derive surface temperatures for one satellite pass under clear skies over the Greenland ice sheet from 1989 through 1993. The results of these temperatures are presented ...
Upper-ocean Response to Precipitation Forcing in an Ocean Model Hindcast of Hurricane Gonzalo
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Pre-existing, oceanic barrier layers have been shown to limit turbulent mixing and suppress mixed layer cooling during the forced stage of a tropical cyclone (TC). Furthermore, an understanding of barrier layer evolution ...
Barrier Layer Development Local to Tropical Cyclones based on Argo Float Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe objective of this study is to quantify barrier layer development due to tropical cyclone (TC) passage using Argo float observations of temperature and salinity. To accomplish this objective, a climatology of ...
Surface Energy Fluxes of Arctic Winter Sea Ice in Barrow Strait
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The surface energy balance of sea ice was measured during degree one-week periods in November, January, and February of 1980?81 in the Barrow Strait, Northwest Territories, Canada. Turbulent fluxes were derived with the ...
