Evaluation of Properties of Concrete Incorporating Fly Ash or Slag Using a Hydration Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Granulated slag from metal industries and fly ash from the combustion of coal are industrial by-products that have been used widely as mineral admixtures in normal and high-strength concrete. Because of the reaction between ...
Coupling Point Cloud Completion and Surface Connectivity Relation Inference for 3D Modeling of Indoor Building Environments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Due to occlusions and limited measurement ranges, three-dimensional (3D) sensors are often not able to obtain complete point clouds. Completing missing data and obtaining spatial relations of different building components ...
Reassessing the Use of Inner-Core Hot Towers to Predict Tropical Cyclone Rapid Intensification
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he hot tower (HT) in the inner core plays an important role in tropical cyclone (TC) rapid intensification (RI). With the help of Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission (TRMM) data and the Statistical Hurricane Intensity ...
A New Visible Albedo Normalization Method: Quasi-Lambertian Surface Adjustment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: new visible (VIS; 0.55?0.9 ?m) albedo normalization method, that is, the quasi-Lambertian surface adjustment (QLSA), is developed herein by using the geostationary meteorological satellite data and radiative transfer model. ...
Theoretical and Experimental Study of Locally Resonant and Bragg Band Gaps in Flexural Beams Carrying Periodic Arrays of Beam Like Resonators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we present a design of locally resonant (LR) beams using periodic arrays of beamlike resonators (or beamlike vibration absorbers) attached to a thin homogeneous beam. The main purpose of this work is twofold: ...
Evaluation of Chinese Aircraft Meteorological Data Relay (AMDAR) Weather Reports
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ircraft Meteorological Data Relay (AMDAR) weather reports are a type of high spatiotemporal data currently widely used in weather monitoring and prediction. A recent Chinese AMDAR project began in 2003 has made rapid ...
Rainfall Retrieval and Nowcasting Based on Multispectral Satellite Images. Part I: Retrieval Study on Daytime 10-Minute Rain Rate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study develops a method for both precipitation area and intensity retrievals based on multispectral geostationary satellite images. This method can be applied to continuous observation of large-scale precipitation so ...
Rainfall Retrieval and Nowcasting Based on Multispectral Satellite Images. Part II: Retrieval Study on Daytime Half-Hour Rain Rate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: o implement continuous and reliable rainfall retrieval, based on the satellite retrieval algorithm of 10-min rain rate, this study proposes an immediate tracking and continuous accumulation technique (ITCAT) of half-hour ...
