CloudSat Observes a Labrador Sea Polar Low
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: olar lows generate hazardous weather conditions in the Arctic, and satellites have played a key role in understanding their genesis and dynamics. For the first time, an overpass of the CloudSat 94-GHz cloud radar over a ...
Closure to “Survey of Practice to Determine Strength of In Situ Concrete from Core Tests” by John M. Hanson
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Discussion of “<i>Sequestration of Iron in Ground Water by Polyphosphates</i>” by Kevin G. Klueh and R. Bruce Robinson (October, 1988, Vol. 113, No. 5)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
The Polytropic Analysis of Centrifugal Compressors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The real-gas equations of polytropic analysis are derived in terms of compressibility functions X and Y which supplement the familiar compressibility factor, Z. A polytropic head factor, f, is ...
Erratum: “The Polytropic Analysis of Centrifugal Compressors” (Journal of Engineering for Power, 1962, 84, pp. 69–82)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Closure to “<i>Economics of Seismic Design for New Buildings</i>” by John M. Ferritto (December, 1984, Vol. 110, No. 12)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Geometric Concerns in Slope Stability Analyses
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Geometric approximations necessary in the Simplified Bishop Method of Slices for slope stability analysis can lead to inadvertent errors. Depending on the method of computation of the slice area and base inclination angle, ...
Tertiary Creep Model for Frozen Sands
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An empirical model to describe the unconfined compressive creep behavior of frozen sands is developed. When combined with the proposed method for parameter evaluation, this model accounts for the effect of applied axial ...
