Linking the Pacific Meridional Mode to ENSO: Coupled Model Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The occurrence of a boreal spring phenomenon referred to as the Pacific meridional model (MM) is shown to be intimately linked to the development of El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in a long simulation of a coupled ...
Linking the Pacific Meridional Mode to ENSO: Utilization of a Noise Filter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A novel noise filter is used to effectively reduce internal atmospheric variability in the air?sea fluxes of a coupled model. This procedure allows for a test of the impact of the internal atmospheric variability on ENSO ...
Sea Surface Temperature–Precipitation Relationship in Different Reanalyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he focus of this investigation is how the relationship at intraseasonal time scales between sea surface temperature and precipitation (SST?P) varies among different reanalyses. The motivation for this work was spurred by ...
Effects of Slitting Size and Inlet Operating Conditions on Hydrogen Combustion Characteristics in a Micro-Combustor With a Controllable Vortex Slotted Bluff Body
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Effects of controllable vortex slotted bluff body parameters (position of a bluff body, slit size, and controllable flow ratio) on the combustion characteristics of hydrogen/air in a micro-combustor with a bluff body were ...
Effect of Upstream Leakage Flow on Film Cooling Characteristic of a Turbine Convex Endwall
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper investigates the effect of upstream leakage coolant flow on the film cooling performance of the convex endwall. The experiment is conducted in an annular passage with four vanes, and the endwall film cooling ...
The Wall Heat Transfer Phenomenon of Premixed CH4/Air Catalytic Combustion in a Pt Coated Microtube
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a 2D model with detailed heterogeneous chemical mechanism has been employed to investigate the heat transfer phenomenon of premixed CH4/air catalytic combustion in a Pt coated microtube. Especially, the ...
A Numerical Method for Simulating Nonlinear Mechanical Responses of Tensegrity Structures Under Large Deformations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An efficient numerical method is developed to analyze the mechanical responses of tensegrity structures subjected to various actuations that lead to large and highly nonlinear (e.g., hardening or softening) deformations. ...
Chirality Induced by Structural Transformation in a Tensegrity: Theory and Experiment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Chiral structures have many technologically significant applications in engineering. In this paper, we investigate, both theoretically and experimentally, the structural transformation from a symmetric Xshaped tensegrity ...
Modeling Analysis of the Sustainable Development of Urban Traffic Based on Vehicle Policy
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A system dynamics (SD) model of the sustainable development of urban transport is built with vehicle development policy considered as the regulating factor. Moreover, an empirical study is conducted using SD and integrating ...
Thermodynamic Analysis on Reaction Characteristics of the Coupling Steam, CO2 and O2 Reforming of Methane
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study presents an analysis of coupling steam, CO2 and O2 reforming of CH4 using the thermodynamic equilibrium constant method. Effects of molar ratio of O2/CH4, H2O/CH4 and CO2/CH4 on reforming characteristics in both ...
