Impacts of the Boreal Spring Indo-Pacific Warm Pool Hadley Circulation on Tropical Cyclone Activity over the Western North Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study investigated the impacts of the interannual variability in the boreal spring regional Hadley circulation over the Indo-Pacific warm pool (IPWP) on the tropical cyclone (TC) activity over the western North ...
Relationship between El Niño–Southern Oscillation and the Symmetry of the Hadley Circulation: Role of the Sea Surface Temperature Annual Cycle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractEl Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO), which features an equatorial quasi-symmetric sea surface temperature anomaly (SSTA), is related to both the symmetric and asymmetric components of the Hadley circulation (HC) ...
Demystifying Construction Project Time–Effort Distribution Curves: BIM and Non-BIM Comparison
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: MacLeamy’s time–effort distribution curves are among the most oft-cited sources for researchers interested in mainstreaming building information modeling (BIM) implementation in the architecture, engineering, and construction ...
Critical Assessment Indicators for Measuring Benefits of Rural Infrastructure Investment in China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Rural infrastructure is of vital importance for agricultural growth, economic development, and poverty alleviation, particularly in developing countries such as China. In line with the implementation of a Coordinated ...
Generic Model for Measuring Benefits of BIM as a Learning Tool in Construction Tasks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Over the past years, people’s understanding of building information modeling (BIM) in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry has improved significantly. Building information modeling can be diversely ...
Behavior of Rural Victims and Local Government during Post-Disaster Reconstruction: Agent-Based Simulation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Concentrated rural settlement (CRS) was used for housing reconstruction in Sichuan Province, China, after the Wenchuan earthquake. Although CRS is claimed to provide enhanced infrastructure and public services, a sufficient ...
Leakage Characteristics of a Novel Hole-Pattern Damping Seal With Dovetail-Like Diversion Grooves: Numerical Simulation and Experiment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Reasonable design of the cavity shape of the damping hole effectively reduces the leakage rate of the hole-pattern damping seal (HPDS). A novel HPDS with dovetail-like diversion grooves was proposed, and the geometry outline ...
Assessment of Resilient Governance Capacity toward COVID-19 in Chinese Cities
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Resilient governance is essential to coping with complicated emergencies such as COVID-19. Existing studies have explored the public health system’s governance capacity and resilient issues. Although local governments play ...
Interannual Relationship between the Boreal Spring Arctic Oscillation and the Northern Hemisphere Hadley Circulation Extent
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study investigates the interannual relationship and the dynamical linkage between the boreal spring Arctic Oscillation (AO) and the Northern Hemisphere Hadley circulation extent (HCE). The spring AO is positively ...
