Abstract: he tropical cyclone (TC) boundary layer (TCBL)?featuring extreme winds over a rough ocean?is difficult to study observationally. With increasing computational power, high-resolution large-eddy simulation (LES) has become ...

Abstract: This paper analyzes the effect of longitudinal stress gradients on the elastic buckling of thin isotropic plates. Two types of thin plates are considered: (1) a plate simply supported on all four edges and rotationally ...

Abstract: ropical cyclones (TCs) are strongly influenced by fluxes of momentum and moist enthalpy across the air?sea interface. These fluxes cannot be resolved explicitly by current-generation numerical weather prediction models, ...

Abstract: The direct strength method of cold-formed steel member design uses local, distortional, and global cross-section elastic buckling analysis with empirically derived direct expressions to predict member strength. The direct ...

Abstract: Failure in cold-formed steel beams is generally initiated by one of three instabilities: local, distortional, or lateral-torsional buckling. For cold-formed steel joists, purlins, or girts, when the compression flange is ...
