A Unified Analogy-Based Computation Methodology From Elasticity to Electromagnetic-Chemical-Thermal Fields and a Concept of Multifield Sensing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper reports a unified analogy-based computation methodology, together with a concept of multifield, multifunctional sensing, from elasticity to electromagnetic-chemical-thermal fields, via utilizing the similarities ...
Large Scale Simulation of Fluid Flows for Lubrication of Rough Surfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a novel method to compute the lubricant pressure distribution between a rough and a smooth surface in relative motion. The originality of this method is to combine a deterministic approach for the large ...
Effect of Roughness Orientation on the Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication Film Thickness
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Effect of roughness orientation on lubricant film thickness has been an important issue of surface design, attracting much attention since the 1970 s. A systematical study, however, is still needed for various contact ...
Toward Accurate and Reliable Forecasts of Australian Seasonal Rainfall by Calibrating and Merging Multiple Coupled GCMs
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he majority of international climate modeling centers now produce seasonal rainfall forecasts from coupled general circulation models (GCMs). Seasonal rainfall forecasting is highly challenging, and GCM forecast accuracy ...
On the Stribeck Curves for Lubricated Counterformal Contacts of Rough Surfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The “Stribeck curve†is a wellknown concept, describing the frictional behavior of a lubricated interface during the transition from boundary and mixed lubrication up to fullfilm hydrodynamic/elastohydrodynamic ...
Evidence for Using Lagged Climate Indices to Forecast Australian Seasonal Rainfall
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: agged oceanic and atmospheric climate indices are potentially useful predictors of seasonal rainfall totals. A rigorous Bayesian joint probability modeling approach is applied to find the cross-validation predictive densities ...
Calibration, Bridging, and Merging to Improve GCM Seasonal Temperature Forecasts in Australia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: here are a number of challenges that must be overcome if GCM forecasts are to be widely adopted in climate-sensitive industries such as agriculture and water management. GCM outputs are frequently biased relative to ...
Intensity of Singular Stress Fields at the End of a Cylindrical Inclusion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In short fiber reinforced composite it is known that the singular stress at the end of fibers causes crack initiation, propagation, and final failure. The singular stress field is controlled by the generalized stress ...
A Bayesian Approach to Predictor Selection for Seasonal Streamflow Forecasting
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: tatistical methods commonly used for forecasting climate and streamflows require the selection of appropriate predictors. Poorly designed predictor selection procedures can result in poor forecasts for independent events. ...
Experimental and Numerical Investigations of the Stribeck Curves for Lubricated Counterformal Contacts
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Stribeck curve is an important means to demonstrate the frictional behavior of a lubricated interface during the entire transition from boundary and mixed to full-film lubrication. In the present study, a new test ...
