Uniform Asymptotics for the Linear Kelvin Wave in Spherical Geometry
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Kelvin wave is the gravest eigenmode of Laplace?s tidal equation. It is widely observed in both the ocean and the atmosphere. In the absence of mean currents, the Kelvin wave depends on two parameters: the zonal ...
New Gradation Equation and Applicability for Particle-Size Distributions of Various Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A new gradation equation that can describe the particle-size distribution curves of soils with continuous gradation is presented. The results obtained for a large amount of test data from soil gradations prove that the ...
Significant Enhancement of Near-Field Radiative Heat Transfer by Misaligned Bilayer Heterostructure of Graphene-Covered Gratings
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The near-field radiative heat transfer of heterostructure consisting of SiC gratings and graphene is investigated in this work. The rigorous coupled-wave analysis is employed to calculate the spectral heat flux. Nevertheless, ...
Impact of Aviation on Climate: FAA’s Aviation Climate Change Research Initiative (ACCRI) Phase II
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nder the Federal Aviation Administration?s (FAA) Aviation Climate Change Research Initiative (ACCRI), non-CO2 climatic impacts of commercial aviation are assessed for current (2006) and for future (2050) baseline and ...
