Abstract: For nearly 60 years, the lognormal distribution has been the most widely used function in the field of atmospheric science for characterizing atmospheric aerosol size distribution. We verify whether the three-parameter ...

Abstract: Based on the unified strength criterion, a characteristic theory for solving the plastic plane stress and plane strain problems of an ideal rigid-plastic body is established in this paper, which can be adapted for a wide ...

Abstract: To evaluate an arbitrary multiaxial stress state, the concept of the equivalent stress can be used. Because of its simplicity and clarity, this concept is now widely used in the component design. Many strength criteria ...

Abstract: Spinning electrodynamic tether systems are considered ideal platforms for payload transportation, removal of space debris, artificial gravity, and so on, for they provide a propellantless solution to orbital maneuver and ...

Abstract: ibbs oscillation can show up near flow regions with strong temperature gradients in the numerical simulation of nonhydrostatic mesoscale atmospheric flows when using the high-order discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method. The ...

Abstract: Moisture-induced damage in asphalt mixes can lead to various distresses in the pavement. The primary cause of such distresses is the loss in adhesion and cohesion properties of the asphalt mixes. One of the factors that ...

Abstract: AbstractUrbanization modifies atmospheric energy and moisture balances, forming distinct features [e.g., urban heat islands (UHIs) and enhanced or decreased precipitation]. These produce significant challenges to science ...
