A New Formulation of the Exchange of Mass and Trace Constituents between the Stratosphere and Troposphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using a dynamical definition of the tropopause, a diagnostic model of stratosphere?troposphere exchange is presented. The net transport across the tropopause is independent of the vertical coordinate. When the transport ...
On Elastomer Mount Design When Machine and Foundation Are Multi-Resonant Structures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Some considerations on elastomer mount design in vibration isolation when both the machine and foundation have many resonances are presented, and possibilities for improvement on the mount ...
Calculation of Numerical Uncertainty Using Richardson Extrapolation: Application to Some Simple Turbulent Flow Calculations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Richardson extrapolation has been applied to turbulent pipe flow and turbulent flow past a backward facing step. A commercial CFD code is used for this purpose. It is found that the application ...
Sensitivity Analysis and Numerical Stability Analysis of the Algorithms for Predicting the Performance of Turbines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Sensitivity and numerical stability of an algorithm are two of the most important criteria to evaluate its performance. For all published turbine flow models, except Wang method, can be named the “topdown†method (TDM) ...
A Methodology for Conceptual Design of Mechanisms by Parsing Design Specifications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, design specifications for the conceptual design of mechanisms are parsed into three coherent categories: functional requirements, structural requirements, and design constraints. Based ...
Ejection Process Simulation for a Piezoelectric Microdroplet Generator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The purpose of this work is to investigate the liquid ejection process of a novel microdroplet generator applying a computational approach. In simulations, the theoretical model is based on the ...
Model and Algorithm of Schedule Coordination in Regional Bus Transit with Multiple Transport Modes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This research studies ways to coordinate timetables in a regional bus transit with multiple transport modes to satisfy numerous realistic constraints, such as maximum and minimum departure intervals, by considering transfer ...
Prediction of the Impact of Typhoons on Transportation Networks with Support Vector Regression
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The ability to predict the impact of typhoons on transportation infrastructure is important as it can help to avoid serious delays and dangers when roads are closed due to such events. This research uses support vector ...
Seasonal Distributions of Mountain Torques during FGGE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Based on surface pressure and terrain height analyses from the National Meteorological Center, mountain torques are calculated for January, April, July and October 1979 during the First GARP Global Experiment. The zonally ...
