The Effects of Assimilating Conventional and ATOVS Data on Forecasted Near-Surface Wind with WRF-3DVAR
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this paper, the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model with the three-dimensional variational data assimilation (WRF-3DVAR) system is used to investigate the impact on the near-surface wind forecast of assimilating ...
Qualification Requirements Design for Neutron Absorber Plate for Spent Fuel Racks in Domestic Nuclear Power Plants
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Boron carbide (B4C) particle-reinforced aluminum matrix composite is the key material for use as neutron absorber plate in fuel storage applications for Generation III advanced passive nuclear power plants in China. This ...
Process-Oriented Compound Long-Duration Dry and Hot Events in China: Atmospheric Conditions, Moisture, and Heat Budget Analyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
High-Particle-Density YAG:Ce Phosphor Coating for High Power Laser Lighting
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Inorganic Ce doped yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG:Ce) fluorescent plates based on various manufacturing methods have been studied in recent years for laser lighting systems. A laser lighting optical system is designed to ...
Evaluation of High-Resolution Gridded Precipitation Data in Arid and Semiarid Regions: Heihe River Basin, Northwest China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe reliability of three satellite-derived precipitation products, Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) 3B42 V7 and the Climate Prediction Center morphing technique (CMORPH) satellite-only (CMORPH-RAW) and ...
Large-Amplitude Internal Solitary Waves Observed in the Northern South China Sea: Properties and Energetics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ive large-amplitude internal solitary waves (ISWs) propagating westward on the upper continental slope in the northern South China Sea were observed in May?June 2011 with nearly full-depth measurements of velocity, ...
Genetic Algorithm for Calibrating a Three-Axis Measuring System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It is very difficult to avoid the orthoerror and gain error in the three-axis measuring device by means of improving the manufacturing process, and the measure precision is tremendously limited by these errors. A model for ...
Large Increasing Trend of Tropical Cyclone Rainfall in Taiwan and the Roles of Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: aiwan, which is in the middle of one of the most active of the western North Pacific Ocean?s tropical cyclone (TC) zones, experienced a dramatic increase in typhoon-related rainfall in the beginning of the twenty-first ...
A Class of Symmetrical 3T, 3T-1R, and 3R Mechanisms With Parallel Linear Motion Elements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A kind of kinematic chain with parallel linear motion elements (PLMEs) is proposed and studied in this paper. Based on screw theory, the kinematic screw equations of these linkages are established. The two special categories ...
A Composite View of Surface Signatures and Interior Properties of Nonlinear Internal Waves: Observations and Applications
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Surface signatures and interior properties of large-amplitude nonlinear internal waves (NLIWs) in the South China Sea (SCS) were measured during a period of weak northeast wind (?2 m s?1) using shipboard marine radar, an ...
