Numerical Simulations of the Role of Land Surface Conditions in the Evolution and Structure of Summertime Thunderstorms over a Flat Highland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Numerical simulations of summertime thunderstorms over a flat highland (4700 m MSL), assuming the central Tibetan Plateau, were conducted with the use of a cloud-resolving nonhydrostatic model. This study was aimed at ...
Transition of the Rainfall Characteristics Related to the Moistening of the Land Surface over the Central Tibetan Plateau during the Summer of 1998
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes a transition of rainfall characteristics related to the moistening of the land surface over the central Tibetan Plateau. This transition was observed three weeks after the onset of the summer rainy ...
The Role of Local Moisture Recycling Evaluated Using Stable Isotope Data from over the Middle of the Tibetan Plateau during the Monsoon Season
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Both meteorological data and stable isotope data were used to investigate the role that local moisture recycling plays in maintaining moist land surface conditions over the middle of the Tibetan Plateau during the summer ...
Static Characteristics of Journal Bearings With Square Dimples
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Surface texturing is a technique for improving frictional and hydrodynamic performances of journal bearings because microtextures can serve as reservoirs for oil or traps for debris and may also generate hydrodynamic ...
Evaluation of the Accuracy and Utility of Tropical Cyclone Intensity Estimation Using Single Ground-Based Doppler Radar Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ntensities (central pressures) of 28 cases of 22 tropical cyclones (TCs) that approached Japan were estimated by using single ground-based Doppler radar observations, and the accuracy and utility of the estimation method ...
Numerical and Experimental Analyses of the Dynamic Characteristics of Journal Bearings With Square Dimples
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Numerous previous numerical studies have investigated the effect of surface texturing upon the static characteristics of journal bearings, including their load-carrying capacity and friction torque. In general, the dynamic ...

Doppler Radar Analysis of the Rapid Intensification of Typhoon Goni (2015) after Eyewall Replacement
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA ground-based Doppler radar observed the rapid intensification (RI) of Typhoon Goni (2015) for 24 h immediately after it completed an eyewall replacement cycle. Goni?s RI processes were examined by using radar ...
Observations of a Super Cloud Cluster Accompanied by Synoptic-Scale Eastward-Propagating Precipitating Systems over the Indian Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The multiscale structure of a super cloud cluster (SCC) over the equatorial Indian Ocean, observed in November and December 2006, was investigated using data from satellite microwave sensors and surface-based radars. The ...
Load Rejection Tests and Their Dynamic Simulations With a 150 kW Class Microsteam Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A simulation method for load rejection with a 150 kW class radial inflow steam turbine system was proposed to determine over rotational speed at load rejection. Simulations were carried out for several parameters of ...
