E4DVar: Coupling an Ensemble Kalman Filter with Four-Dimensional Variational Data Assimilation in a Limited-Area Weather Prediction Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hybrid data assimilation approach that couples the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) and four-dimensional variational (4DVar) methods is implemented for the first time in a limited-area weather prediction model. In this coupled ...
E3DVar: Coupling an Ensemble Kalman Filter with Three-Dimensional Variational Data Assimilation in a Limited-Area Weather Prediction Model and Comparison to E4DVar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study examines the performance of a hybrid ensemble-variational data assimilation system (E3DVar) that couples an ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) with the three-dimensional variational data assimilation (3DVar) system ...
Multiphoton Polymerization Using Femtosecond Bessel Beam for Layerless Three-Dimensional Printing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Photopolymerization enables the printing of three-dimensional (3D) objects through successively solidifying liquid photopolymer on two-dimensional (2D) planes. However, such layer-by-layer process significantly limits ...
A Comprehensive Investigation on the Effects of Biomass Particle Size in Cellulosic Biofuel Production
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Biofuels derived from cellulosic biomass offer one of the best near- to midterm alternatives to petroleum-based liquid transportation fuels. Biofuel conversion is mainly done through a biochemical pathway in which size ...
A Temperature Model for Synchronized Ultrasonic Torrefaction and Pelleting of Biomass for Bioenergy Production
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Low-energy and volumetric density of biomass has been a major challenge, hindering its large-scale utilization as a bioenergy resource. Torrefaction is a thermochemical pretreatment process that can significantly enhance ...
Numerical and Experimental Investigation of Aerodynamic Performance for a Straight Turbine Cascade With a Novel Partial Shroud
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A comparative experimental and numerical analysis is carried out to assess the aerodynamic performance of a novel partial shroud in a straight turbine cascade. This partial shroud is designed as a combination of winglet ...
Intercomparison of an Ensemble Kalman Filter with Three- and Four-Dimensional Variational Data Assimilation Methods in a Limited-Area Model over the Month of June 2003
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study compares the performance of an ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) with both the three-dimensional and four-dimensional variational data assimilation (3DVar and 4DVar) methods of the Weather Research and Forecasting ...
Laboratory Investigation on Oil Increment and Water Cut Control of CO2, N2, and Gas Mixture Huff-n-Puff in Edge-Water Fault-Block Reservoirs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Excessive water production is a common matter that seriously affects production efficiency during the development of edge-water fault-block reservoirs. Gas huff-n-puff is an effective water shutoff technology that has the ...
Experimental and Numerical Analysis of Water Jet Peening on 6061 Aluminum Alloy
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Water jet peening (WJP) is a mechanical surface strengthening process, which can improve the residual stress (RS) of the peened surface and then improve the fatigue life of components. In this paper, erosion experiments ...
Theoretical and Finite Element Analysis of Residual Stress Field for Different Geometrical Features After Abrasive Waterjet Peening
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abrasive waterjet (AWJ) peening can be used for metal surface strengthening by introducing near-surface plastic strain and compressive residual stress. The present studies seldom focus on residual stress by AWJ peening of ...
