RISLocal PWB and Component Bowing of an Assembly Subjected to a Bending Moment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analytical model is developed for determining the bowing of a component mounted on a printed wiring board (PWB) that is subjected to a bending moment. The model assumes a uniform elastic ...
Vibration Induced Fatigue Life Estimation of Corner Leads of Peripheral Leaded Components
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The rapid advancement of integrated circuits and associated electronic technologies have placed increasing demands on electronic packaging and its material structures in terms of the reliability ...
Reassessing the Elliptic Phase Function for Use in Two-Stream Approximations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In an important paper written over 25 years ago, solar radiative fluxes based on exact Mie phase functions were compared to fluxes for corresponding elliptic and Henyey?Greenstein scattering phase functions. The poor ...
Solar Radiative Transfer for Wind-Sheared Cumulus Cloud Fields
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Monte Carlo method of photon transport was used to simulate solar radiative transfer for cumulus-like cloud forms (and cloud fields) possessing structural characteristics similar to those induced by wind shear. Using ...
Isolating the Industrial Contribution of PM2.5 in Hamilton and Burlington, Ontario
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ourly measurements of particulate matter that is smaller than 2.5 ?m in diameter (PM2.5) have been made at air-monitoring sites in Hamilton and Burlington, Ontario, Canada, since 2003. These sites are separated by ~6 km; ...
Discussion: “An Experimental Investigation of Elastic-Plastic Pulse Propagation in Aluminum Rods” (Bodner, S. R., and Clifton, R. J., 1967, ASME J. Appl. Mech., 34, pp. 91–99)

Estimating Cloud Field Albedo Using One-Dimensional Series Of Optical Depth
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study examines the ability to estimate regional cloud albedo using 1D series of cloud optical depth τ similar to those inferred from ground-based microwave radiometers. The investigation has two facets: use of appropriate ...
A Parameterization for Computing Grid-Averaged Solar Fluxes for Inhomogeneous Marine Boundary Layer Clouds. Part I: Methodology and Homogeneous Biases
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method of computing grid-averaged solar radiative fluxes for horizontally inhomogeneous marine boundary layer cloud fields is presented. Its underlying assumptions are as follows: i) the independent pixel approximation ...
