RISOn Multidecadal Variability of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation in the Community Climate System Model Version 3
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Multidecadal variability of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (MOC) is investigated diagnostically in the NCAR Community Climate System Model version 3 (CCSM3) present-day simulations, using the highest (T85 ...
On the Wind-Driven Circulation of the Uncoupled and Coupled NCAR Climate System Ocean Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The time-mean wind-driven circulation of the uncoupled and coupled National Center for Atmospheric Research Climate System Model ocean model is investigated. Although the coupled surface wind stress and wind stress curl ...
Modeling of Optimal Power Generation in Small Hydropower Plants
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Small hydropower plants (SHPs) have gained international attention as a reliable and versatile renewable energy source. Unfortunately, this energy source is not used efficiently. This is because these systems utilize ...
Sensitivity of Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation Variability to Parameterized Nordic Sea Overflows in CCSM4
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he inclusion of parameterized Nordic Sea overflows in the ocean component of the Community Climate System Model version 4 (CCSM4) results in a much improved representation of the North Atlantic tracer and velocity distributions ...
The Origins of Late-Twentieth-Century Variations in the Large-Scale North Atlantic Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: urface forcing perturbation experiments are examined to identify the key forcing elements associated with late-twentieth-century interannual-to-decadal Atlantic circulation variability as simulated in an ocean?sea ice ...
Response of Seismic-Isolated Bridges in Relation to Intensity Measures of Ordinary and Pulselike Ground Motions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study concentrates on the efficiency of numerous ground motion intensity measures (IMs) to be used in estimating the response of seismic-isolated bridges (SIBs). Efficiency of commonly used IMs was investigated through ...
Effectiveness of Serious Games for Safety Training: A Mixed Method Study
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Effective safety training is essential to reduce the number of construction accidents caused by unsafe human actions. The application of serious games in construction safety is growing rapidly because serious games offer ...
Free Vibration Analysis of Thin-Walled Beams Using Two-Phase Local–Nonlocal Constitutive Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A mathematical model is developed based on the thin-walled beams theory for free vibration analysis of nano/micro scale beams having nonlocal properties and arbitrary cross sections. Constitutive relations are defined by ...
Experimental Investigation of Natural Circulating Solar Energy System Including a Parabolic Trough Solar Collector
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The most common natural flow water heating systems are in one-ended inclined pipes today. This study aims to investigate the natural circulation solar energy system experimentally with a parabolic trough solar collector. ...
Estimating Fully Probabilistic Seismic Sliding Displacements of Slopes from a Pseudoprobabilistic Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Permanent sliding displacements are used to evaluate the seismic stability of earth slopes, and current practice utilizes a pseudoprobabilistic approach to predict the expected sliding displacement. The pseudoprobabilistic ...
