RISValidation of Integrated Water Vapor from Numerical Models Using Ground-Based GPS, SSM/I, and Water Vapor Radiometer Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Time series of vertically integrated water vapor (IWV) derived for 25 ground-based global positioning system (GPS) sites in Sweden and Finland are used for validating the IWV from weather forecast models for a 3-month ...
Solar Stray Light Effects in Meteosat Radiances Observed and Quantified Using Operational Data Monitoring at ECMWF
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Radiances in the water vapor (WV) and infrared channels of the Meteorological Satellite (Meteosat)-5 and -7 are being continuously monitored in the form of clear-sky radiances using the operational European Centre for ...
Fuel Cell ASAP: Two Iterations of an Automated Stack Assembly Process and Ramifications for Fuel Cell Design-for-Manufacture Considerations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Polymer-electrode membrane fuel cell technology, a low-emission power source receiving much attention for its efficiency, will need to progress from low-volume production to high-volume within the ...
Slender High-Strength Concrete Columns Subjected to Eccentric Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An experimental study of the behavior of reinforced concrete columns and results of a nonlinear finite-element analysis are presented. Twelve full-scale columns with square sections were tested under eccentric monotonic ...
Applicability of Kinematic, Noninertia, and Quasi-Steady Dynamic Wave Models to Unsteady Flow Routing
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Propagation of flood waves in an open channel can be mathematically approximated by the Saint-Venant equations (dynamic wave) or by their simplifications including the kinematic wave, noninertia wave, gravity wave, and ...
Comparison of Multivariate Regression and Artificial Neural Networks for Peak Urban Water-Demand Forecasting: Evaluation of Different ANN Learning Algorithms
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: For the past several years, Cyprus has been facing an unprecedented water crisis. Four options that have been considered to help resolve the problem of drought in Cyprus include imposing effective water use restrictions, ...
Multiple-Doppler Radar Observations of the Evolution of Vorticity Extrema in a Convective Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Overdetermined, dual-Doppler wind syntheses are used to document the evolution, structure, and dynamics of vertical vorticity extrema observed in a convective boundary layer during the 12 June 2002 International H2O Project ...
Battery-Assisted Trolleybus Network Design: Model and Application
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Battery-assisted trolleybuses (BATs) are among the options to be considered for electrifying bus fleets in cities, with established trolleybus catenary networks. BATs charge on the move using existing trolleybus catenaries ...
Transformations of Nonlinear Systems to High-Order Generalized Chained Forms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A variety of stabilization methods for nonlinear systems in chained form can be found in the literature. However, very few results exist in the area of systematically converting a general ...
