RISSwelling of Hydrogels With Imperfect Polymer Networks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A hydrogel consists of a cross-linked polymer network and water. There are various types of molecule chains in the polymer network, including long chains, short chains, and dangling chains. Under tensile loading, the long ...
Sensitivity to Large-Scale Environmental Fields of the Relaxed Arakawa–Schubert Parameterization in the NASA GEOS-1 GCM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An adjoint sensitivity analysis of the relaxed Arakawa?Schubert scheme in the National Aeronautics and Space Administration GEOS-1 GCM with respect to perturbations in large-scale environmental fields was conducted. The ...
Mechanisms Contributing to Suppressed Precipitation in Mt. Hua of Central China. Part I: Mountain Valley Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: significant reduction in precipitation in the past decades has been documented over many mountain ranges such as those in central and eastern China. Consistent with the increase of air pollution in these regions, it has ...
Modeling the Response of Canopy Stomatal Conductance to Humidity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Humidity of air is a key environmental variable in controlling the stomatal conductance (g) of plant leaves. The stomatal conductance?humidity relationships employed in the Ball?Woodrow?Berry (BWB) model and the Leuning ...
The GEOS-3 Retrospective Data Assimilation System: The 6-Hour Lag Case
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The fixed-lag Kalman smoother (FLKS) has been proposed as a framework to construct data assimilation procedures capable of producing high-quality climate research datasets. FLKS-based systems, referred to as retrospective ...
Online Friction–Thermal–Load Coupling Model of an Arbitrary Curve Contact Under Mixed Lubrication Considering Actual Operating Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The existing fractal contact model fails to solve the problem of online real-time irregular curvilinear contact under mixed lubrication conditions. In this study, a novel arbitrary curve contact model is established, ...
Biotreatment of Mn2+ and Pb2+ with Sulfate-Reducing Bacterium Desulfuromonas alkenivorans S-7
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Biotreatment of heavy metals in acid mine drainage (AMD) with sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) is considered the most promising technique in the ecological restoration of mines. In the present work, the authors evaluated ...
