Diagnosed Three-Dimensional Axisymmetric Structure of the Mulhall Tornado on 3 May 1999
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: On 3 May 1999, an unusually large tornado that caused F4-level damage and killed several people was intercepted by the Doppler on Wheels (DOW) mobile radar near Mulhall, Oklahoma, from a range of 4 to 9 km, resulting in ...
On Adjustable Planar Four Bar Motion Generation With Order, Branch and Circuit Defect Rectification
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work is an incremental extension of adjustable planar fourbar kinematic synthesis theory to consider not only synthesis, but also the elimination of the defects inherent in synthesis. A nonlinear equation system for ...
Nonlinear Wind Analysis of Single-Doppler Radar Observations within a DVAD Framework
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he application of the distance velocity azimuth display (DVAD) method to the retrieval of vertical wind profiles from single-Doppler radar observations is presented in this study. It was shown that Doppler velocity ...
Objective Tropical Cyclone Center Tracking Using Single-Doppler Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study presents an extension of the ground-based velocity track display (GBVTD)-simplex tropical cyclone (TC) circulation center?finding algorithm to further improve the accuracy and consistency of TC center estimates ...
Mesoscale Analysis of Heavy Rainfall Episodes from SoWMEX/TiMREX
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he authors analyze the mesoscale structure accompanying two multiday periods of heavy rainfall during the Southwest Monsoon Experiment and the Terrain-Induced Mesoscale Rainfall Experiment conducted over and near Taiwan ...
Tropical Cyclone Kinematic Structure Retrieved from Single-Doppler Radar Observations. Part II: The GBVTD-Simplex Center Finding Algorithm
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper is the second of a series and focuses on developing an algorithm to objectively identify tropical cyclone (TC) vorticity centers using single-Doppler radar data. The first paper dealt with the formulation of a ...
A Squall-Line-Like Principal Rainband in Typhoon Hagupit (2008) Observed by Airborne Doppler Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study examines the structure and dynamics of Typhoon Hagupit?s (2008) principal rainband using airborne radar and dropsonde observations. The convection in Hagupit?s principal rainband was organized into a well-defined ...
Subrainband Structure and Dynamic Characteristics in the Principal Rainband of Typhoon Hagupit (2008)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe principal rainband in tropical cyclones is currently depicted as a solitary and continuous precipitation region. However, the airborne radar observations of the principal rainband in Typhoon Hagupit (2008) ...
A Study of Back Electrode Stacked With Low Cost Reflective Layers For High Efficiency Thin Film Silicon Solar Cell
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this study, commercially available white paint is used as a pigmented dielectric reflector (PDR) in the fabrication of a lowcost back electrode stack with an Aldoped ZnO (AZO) layer for thinfilm silicon solar cell ...
True and Spurious Eigensolutions of an Elliptical Membrane by Using the Nondimensional Dynamic Influence Function Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we employ the nondimensional dynamic influence function (NDIF) method to solve the free vibration problem of an elliptical membrane. It is found that the spurious eigensolutions appear in the Dirichlet problem ...
