Abstract: Radiosonde ascents made within the circulation of hurricanes are combined to arrive at the mean temperature and pressure-height distribution about the storm. The results are compared with a thermodynamic model of the ...

Abstract: In this paper, a resiliency analysis is carried out to assess the energy, economic, and power outage survivability benefits of efficient and net-zero energy communities. The analysis addresses the appropriate steps to ...

Abstract: Flow past cavities covered by perforated lids pose a challenging problem for design engineers. Kelvin–Helmholtz waves appear early in the separated shear layers above the perforations that quickly ...

Abstract: When establishing the spatial resolution character of a composite compact finite differencing template for high-order field solutions, the stencils selected at nonperiodic boundaries are commonly ...

Abstract: Generating acceptable inflow conditions for the turbulent boundary layer (TBL) growth along long thin cylinders is a challenging task. Previous production methods such as rescale/recycling, artificial ...

Abstract: After three decades of accumulated experimental and numerical results, a comprehensive understanding of the spatial evolution of axisymmetric turbulent boundary layers (ATBL) along long thin cylinders ...

Abstract: Experimental observations of towed sonar arrays as characterized by long thin circular cylinders indicate transverse motions that are clearly identified by lowamplitudes, lowwavelengths, and lowfrequencies. Although the ...

Abstract: Parameter optimization is an excellent path for easily raising the resolution efficiency of compact finite differencing schemes. Their low-resolution errors are attractive for resolving the fine-scale ...
