ON THE FORMATION OF SHEAR LINES IN THE UPPER ATMOSPHERE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The vertical circulation and the changes of atmospheric structure during the formation of a shear line in the upper atmosphere are studied. The vertical distribution of divergence and convergence at the trough line is ...
AN INVESTIGATION OF A SELECTED COLD VORTEX OVER NORTH AMERICA
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An example of a cold vortex to the south of the maximum westerlies, with its entire life history within the network of aerological observations of the United States, is investigated. The conditions for the formation of ...
Realtime Rate of Penetration Optimization Using the Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The increasing complexities of wellbore geometry imply an increasing well cost. It has become more important than ever to achieve an increased rate of penetration (ROP) and, thus, reduced cost per foot. To achieve maximum ...
In-Plane Transient Responses of Arch with Variable Curvature Using Dynamic Stiffness Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A procedure combining the dynamic stiffness method with the Laplace transform is proposed to obtain accurate transient responses of an arch with variable curvature. The dynamic stiffness matrix and equivalent nodal force ...
Unknown Parameter Excitation and Estimation for Complex Systems With Dynamic Performances
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Simulation models play crucial roles in efficient product development cycles, therefore many studies aim to improve the confidence of a model during the validation stage. In this research, we proposed a dynamic model ...
Hydraulic Features of Air-Water Mixture Flow on a Staircase with Rest Platforms
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To investigate hydraulic features of the flooding flow on a staircase with a rest platform, experiments were conducted on a 1:2-scale physical model of a staircase with a middle rest platform between two stair segments. ...
Resilience Assessment and Importance Measure for Interdependent Critical Infrastructures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Based upon a novel control-based dynamic modeling framework, this paper proposes two new indicators, i.e., resilience by mitigation and resilience by recovery, for the resilience analysis of interdependent critical ...
