RISCompact Arrangements of Cable-Pulley Type Zero-Free-Length Springs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A methodology to develop springs with zero-free-length (ZFL) characteristics is presented, and the configurations for placing the springs precisely on the manipulators are introduced. A spring–string arrangement installed ...
Entrainment and Transport in Idealized Three-Dimensional Gravity Current Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A purely z-coordinate Dietrich/Center for Air Sea Technology (DieCAST) ocean model is applied to the Dynamics of Overflow Mixing and Entrainment (DOME) idealized bottom density current problem that is patterned after the ...
Evaluation of Effects of Static Pile Driving on Existing Metro Tunnel Structure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Relatively few studies have been conducted to examine the effects of static pile driving on existing tunnels, and there is a lack of guidance and case studies that can be used as references. This article presents a case ...
Modeling Air–Land–Sea Interactions Using the Integrated Regional Model System in Monterey Bay, California
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he air?land?sea interaction in the vicinity of Monterey Bay, California, is simulated and investigated using a new Integrated Regional Model System (I-RMS). This new model realistically resolves coastal processes and ...
Characteristics of the RAW-Filtered Leapfrog Time-Stepping Scheme in the Ocean General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Robert?Asselin?Williams (RAW) filtered leapfrog scheme is implemented and tested in the Taiwan multiscale community ocean model (TIMCOM). The characteristics of the RAW filter are carefully examined through two benchmark ...
Is the North Pacific Victoria Mode a Predictor of Winter Rainfall over South China?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study investigates the connection between the North Pacific Victoria mode (VM) during the boreal spring [February–April (FMA)] and the following boreal winter [January–March (JFM)] rainfall over South China (SC). The ...
Automatic Biomechanical Workload Estimation for Construction Workers by Computer Vision and Smart Insoles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Construction workers are commonly subject to ergonomic risks due to awkward working postures or lifting/carrying heavy objects. Accordingly, accurate ergonomic assessment is needed to help improve efficiency and reduce ...
An Analysis of the Linkage of Pacific Subtropical Cells with the Recharge–Discharge Processes in ENSO Evolution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Simple Ocean Data Assimilation, version 2.2.4 (SODA 2.2.4), analysis for the period of 1960?2010 is used to study the variability of Pacific subtropical cells (STCs) and its causal relation with tropical climate ...
Combined Role of High- and Low-Frequency Processes of Equatorial Zonal Transport in Terminating an ENSO Event
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study investigates the sudden reversal of anomalous zonal equatorial transport above thermocline at the peak phase of ENSO. The oceanic processes associated with zonal transport are separated into low-frequency ...
