Abstract: Development of fast and accurate radiative transfer models for clear atmospheric conditions has enabled direct assimilation of clear-sky radiances from satellites in numerical weather prediction models. In this article, ...

Abstract: We identify in this paper that stress relaxation in metals is a “strain-free” process. The corresponding self-consistent relations between the strain, and stress variations of a grain and of ...

Abstract: Since the flow of a magnetic fluid could easily be influenced by an external magnetic field, its hydrodynamic modeling promises to be useful for magnetically controllable delivery systems. It is desirable to understand the ...

Abstract: ; these, together with Weng’s inverse method, form the basis of a self-consistent determination of time-dependent behavior of metals. The kinematic component of the latent hardening law and the residual stress introduced...

Abstract: The effect of residual stress on the flexural buckling strength of cold‐formed steel columns is studied. Based on the results of 93 column tests and the measured residual stresses, significant relation is observed between ...

Abstract: The Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) images display strong dependence on the scanning angle because of the temperature gradient of the atmosphere and the change in the optical pathlength between Earth and the ...

Abstract: Most manipulator motion controllers require joint velocity feedback. Whenever joint velocities are not measurable, they are estimated from the joint positions. However, velocity estimates tend to be inaccurate under lowspeed ...
