RISDesign Optimization of Cementless Femoral Hip Prostheses Using Finite Element Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Implant separation from bone tissue, resulting in the necessity for revision surgery, is a serious drawback of cementless total joint replacement. Unnatural stress distribution around the implant ...
Investigating the Error Sources in Reflectorless EDM
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The main goal of this paper is to investigate error sources and their influence on measured distance in reflectorless electronic distance measurement (EDM) surveys. The results of field surveys previously performed by many ...
Theory of Scale-Free Networks as a New Tool in Researching the Structure and Optimization of Spatial Planning
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The problems covered by this article refer to the possibility of connecting Barabási’s theory of scale-free networks with the concept of growth poles and the theory of spatial self-organization, the optimization of the ...
The Surface Energy Balance at Local and Regional Scales-A Comparison of General Circulation Model Results with Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Aspects of the mean monthly energy balance at continental surfaces are examined by appeal to the results of general circulation model (GCM) simulations, climatological maps of surface fluxes, and direct observations. ...
Systematic Bias in Land Surface Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A neural network?based flux correction technique is applied to three land surface models. It is then used to show that the nature of systematic model error in simulations of latent heat, sensible heat, and the net ecosystem ...
The Behavior of Dry Cold Fronts Traveling Along a Coastline
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations of intense, dry summertime cold fronts in southeast Australia provide evidence for frontal deformation (cold air surges) in the coastal region well to the west of the main mountain range. This compares with ...
Soil Moisture Memory in AGCM Simulations: Analysis of Global Land–Atmosphere Coupling Experiment (GLACE) Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Soil moisture memory is a key aspect of land?atmosphere interaction and has major implications for seasonal forecasting. Because of a severe lack of soil moisture observations on most continents, existing analyses of ...
GLACE: The Global Land–Atmosphere Coupling Experiment. Part I: Overview
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Global Land?Atmosphere Coupling Experiment (GLACE) is a model intercomparison study focusing on a typically neglected yet critical element of numerical weather and climate modeling: land?atmosphere coupling strength, ...
GLACE: The Global Land–Atmosphere Coupling Experiment. Part II: Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The 12 weather and climate models participating in the Global Land?Atmosphere Coupling Experiment (GLACE) show both a wide variation in the strength of land?atmosphere coupling and some intriguing commonalities. In this ...
Effects of Frozen Soil on Soil Temperature, Spring Infiltration, and Runoff: Results from the PILPS 2(d) Experiment at Valdai, Russia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Project for Intercomparison of Land-Surface Parameterization Schemes phase 2(d) experiment at Valdai, Russia, offers a unique opportunity to evaluate land surface schemes, especially snow and frozen soil parameterizations. ...
