Abstract: To develop a fully complete set of errors associated with modeling and simulation, it is necessary to express every error that could impact the accuracy of a computational model's prediction of the real world system (i.e., ...

Abstract: A bistatic dual-Doppler weather radar network consisting of only one transmitter and a nontransmitting, nonscanning, low-cost bistatic receiver was deployed in the Boulder, Colorado, area during 1993. The Boulder network ...

Abstract: In areas that are subject to tidal waters, projects such as bridge construction and property boundary location require the determination of the water level or water datum. Of the different water data that can be established, ...

Abstract: The structure and behavior of multiple subtornadic-scale vortices in a tornado were examined and were compared with laboratory, conceptual, and numerical models. Unique radar observations of an exceptionally large and ...

Abstract: To develop a fully complete set of errors associated with modeling and simulation, it is necessary to express every error that could impact the accuracy of a computational model's prediction of the real world system (i.e., ...

Abstract: This paper presents the experimental results of a representative aircraft turbo-electric powertrain. The 180-kW hybrid gas-electric ground test rig was designed, fabricated, and experimentally evaluated. Hybrid turbo-electric ...

Abstract: Three individual wave power generation technologies were studied and evaluated using multicriteria decision analysis through the use of the PROMETHEE method. To evaluate the three technologies, data were collected from ...

Abstract: Composites of concrete and polymers of various kinds are used in many applications. This paper briefly reviews the history of polymers in combination with cement as a building material, where the polymer is not in the form ...

Abstract: A system of computational techniques was developed to detect a variety of structural features in geophysical time series containing turbulent or wave-like fluctuations. Individual probability density functions and moments ...

Abstract: If the performance of a constructed facility fails to conform with what is intended or anticipated, the engineer-of-record for the facility can be charged with negligence and may bear the liability for damages arising from ...
