Abstract: Titanium is one of the most important nonferrous metals, which finds extensive application in aerospace and chemical industries, because of its light weight, excellent corrosion resistance and ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of laboratory experiments conducted to study the effects of varying ambient stratification strengths, characterized by the buoyancy frequency N, on the dynamics of a buoyant plume propagating ...

Abstract: In this work, a new algorithm called LP-Neuro method is developed to solve artificial neural network problems. In this algorithm, the weights are obtained by a combination of linear programming ...

Abstract: A hydrostatic, primitive equation model is used to simulate an oceanic cyclone with idealized initial conditions. The model uses a pressure coordinate in the vertical with a grid spacing of 100 mb. In the horizontal a grid ...

Abstract: A two-layer primitive equation model with a parameterization for slantwise convection is used to study explosive cyclones. The parameterization includes a simple representation of the planetary boundary layer, as well as ...

Abstract: A three-layer primitive equation model with a representation of slantwise convection is used to study explosive marine cyclogenesis. A simple representation of boundary layer and shallow and deep cloud types is considered. ...

Abstract: The life cycle of an intense marine cyclone is documented in this paper. The departure of the moist dynamics from the dry baroclinic dynamics is explored from an energetics point of view. The contributions of various ...

Abstract: The wide disparities in baroclinic wave development between spherical and Cartesian geometry are investigated with the purpose of assessing the role of the eddy momentum fluxes. Differences are already significant at the ...
