RISAre Multiple Tropical Cyclone Events Similar among Basins?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe present study intercompares multiple tropical cyclone event (MTCE) characteristics among each global tropical cyclone (TC) basin using best-track data. Specific focus is placed on examining the number of MTCEs ...
Flexural Behavior of an Ultrahigh-Performance Concrete I-Girder
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The flexural behavior of an ultrahigh-performance concrete (UHPC) was investigated through the testing and related analysis of a full-scale prestressed I-girder. A
Dynamical Processes of Block Evolution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The dynamical processes associated with block evolution are investigated by analyzing a GCM run, forced with perpetual January conditions. The core of the analysis lies on the temporal evolution of the blocks and on vorticity ...
Flow Near Groin‐Like Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the structure of turbulent flow near groin‐like structures. Based on experimental observations, the deflected flow has been analyzed using the model of the ...
Development of UHPC Pi-Girder Sections for Span Length up to 41 m
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Ultrahigh performance concrete (UHPC) presents many superior properties, such as advanced strength, durability, and long-term stability. The use of existing cross section geometries for materials with advanced properties ...
Modeling Structural Performance of Second-Generation Ultrahigh-Performance Concrete Pi-Girders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The concrete-damaged plasticity (CDP) model with proposed material properties replicated the observed deflection and strain responses of three experimentally tested I-girders and was determined to be consistent for different ...
Modeling Structural Performance of Ultrahigh Performance Concrete I-Girders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Ultrahigh performance concrete (UHPC) is an advanced cementitious composite material that has been developed in recent decades. When compared with more conventional cement-based concrete materials, UHPC tends to exhibit ...
Observed Nonmodal Growth of the Pacific–North American Teleconnection Pattern
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A linear-stochastic model is applied to the 10-day low-pass streamfunction field at 300, 500, and 850 mb for 40 winter seasons of Northern Hemisphere NCEP?NCAR reanalysis data. The linear operator is derived from the ...

Stiffness Degradation and Yielding of EPS Geofoam under Cyclic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper summarizes major findings from a laboratory study based on stress-controlled cyclic uniaxial compression tests with initial deviator stress conducted on expanded polystyrene (EPS) geofoam. The experiments involved ...
