The Stationary Wave Response to a Midlatitude SST Anomaly in an Idealized GCM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The atmospheric stationary wave response to a midlatitude sea surface temperature (SST) anomaly is examined with an idealized general circulation model (GCM) as well as steady linear model, in a similar way as Ting and Held, for a tropical SST...
Maintenance of Northern Summer Stationary Waves in a GCM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The maintenance of northern summer stationary waves is studied with data from a 15-year integration of the general circulation model (GCM) experiment performed at the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory. The model has ...
Steady Linear Response to Tropical Heating in Barotropic and Baroclinic Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The atmospheric response to tropical heating is examined using both the linear, multilevel baroclinic model with an imposed tropical heat source, and the one-level barotropic model with a tropical divergence forcing. The ...
Intraseasonal Variability of Rainfall and Its Effect on Interannual Variability across the Indian Subcontinent and the Tibetan Plateau
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractIntraseasonal variability of rainfall over the Indian subcontinent (IS) and the Tibetan Plateau (TP) has been discussed widely but often separately. In this study, we investigate the covariability of rainfall across ...
Linking BIM Definition, BIM Capability Maturity, and Integrated Project Delivery in the AECO Industry: The Influences of BIM Diffusion and Moral Hazard
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Based on an increasing amount of attention paid to explore why building information modeling (BIM) application levels are so low and what are the obstacles that hinder the further application of BIM, a range of existing ...
Assessing ENSO Summer Teleconnections, Impacts, and Predictability in North America
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
A Review of Bat-Inspired Shape Morphing Robotic Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: By virtue of distinguished wing shape morphing characteristics, the unrivaled agility and flight maneuverability of bats have inspired scientists and engineers to develop novel forms of robots that can fly like bats. The ...
Investigation of Flashing Flow in a Siphon to Extract Condensate in Paper Dryer Application
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper industry uses steam to dry paper web through cylinder dryers. As steam condenses inside the dryer, the condensate is removed by means of either a stationary or a rotary siphon. However, during the siphoning process ...
Investigation of Thermal-Flow Behavior and Droplet Dynamics of Mist Sweeping Impinging Jet Cooling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a 2-D numerical study to investigate the fluid flow behavior and cooling characteristics caused by injecting tiny water droplets into the sweeping air jet through a fluidic oscillator. An unsteady ...
Effect of Channel Geometry on Formability of 304 Stainless Steel Bipolar Plates for Fuel Cells—Simulation and Experiments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A bipolar plate (BP) is one of the key components of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) and accounts for a major portion of their manufacturing cost. Stainless steel is considered as one of the candidate materials ...
