Statistical Knockdown Factors of Buckling Anisotropic Cylinders Under Axial Compression
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Statistical knockdown factors for the axial buckling of anisotropic cylinders were derived for practical design purposes. The solution with the least amount of simplification in the linear ...
Initiation of SHS Flame Induced by Another SHS Flame—Evaluation of the Ignition Energy
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Relevant to the self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) process, an analytical study has been made to investigate dependence of its flame initiation on system parameters, such as operating ...
The Generation of Turbulence below Midlevel Cloud Bases: The Effect of Cooling due to Sublimation of Snow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n the author?s experience as a forecaster, commercial aircraft sometimes report turbulence beneath midlevel clouds that extend above upper frontal zones. Turbulence caused by Kelvin?Helmholtz instability occurs in upper ...
Linear Response of a Ventilated Thermocline to Periodic Wind Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his article presents a solution for the linear response of a 2½-layer ventilated thermocline to large-scale periodic wind forcing, with a fixed outcrop latitude. At the eastern boundary, a Rossby wave whose vertical structure ...
Growing Solitary Disturbance in a Baroclinic Boundary Current
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Weakly nonlinear longwaves in a horizontally sheared current flowing along a longitudinal boundary in a two-layer ocean are investigated by using a quasi-geostrophic ?-plane model. Under the assumptions that the depth ratio ...
Climate–Carbon Cycle Model Response to Freshwater Discharge into the North Atlantic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The response of a coupled climate?carbon cycle model to discharge of freshwater into the North Atlantic is investigated with regard to cold reversals caused by meltwater from northern continental ice sheets such as the ...
Ventilated Thermocline Strongly Affected by a Deep Mixed Layer: A Theory for Subtropical Countercurrent
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The mixed layer thickness generally increases in the northward direction, but its change seems to occur rather sharply in a narrow transition zone, referred to as a mixed layer front here. The author investigates the effects ...
Meridional Location and Profile of a Prematurely Separated WBC Extension Jet in a Two-Layer System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Technical, Economic, and Environmental Assessment of PEFC Power Generation System Using Surplus Hydrogen Produced From an Oil Refinery
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The potential of an energy system that comprises hydrogen-fueled polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs), a steam reformer, and a hydrogen storage tank, using surplus hydrogen produced from an oil refinery, was evaluated ...
The Determination of Lateral Diffusivity in Diabatic Conditions near the Ground from Diffusion Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The three-dimensional equation of diffusion is solved numerically. Vertical diffusivity derived from the turbulent transfer theory is used, as is an assumed form for the lateral diffusivity containing an unknown parameter ...
