RISENSO Spread Caused by Uncertainties in Initial Condition and High-Frequency Perturbations in the Tropical Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Bridge-Column Footings: An Improved Design Procedure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The aim of this paper is to discuss and improve on the current highway bridge-footing design procedure. Five California highway-bridge-column footings are presented here as examples, and are analyzed by using both the ...
Limit Analysis for Evaluation of Compression Diagonal Gusset Plates in Steel Truss Bridges
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Current standard evaluation procedures for compression gusset plates, the two-fold Whitmore section (Whitmore) buckling and the partial plane shear yielding (PPSY), as specified in The Manual for Bridge Evaluation (MBE), ...
The Development of Thermally Stable Sealing Glass in the BaO–B2O3–SiO2 System for Planar SOFC Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The purpose of the present paper is to study the influence of glass composition on the thermal stability in the SiO2–B2O3–BaO system, and three glasses were consequently investigated. Although ...
A Unified Theory of Hybrid Problems for Fully Three-Dimensional Incompressible Rotor Flow Based on Variational Principles With Variable Domain
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Making use of functional variations with variable domain and natural boundary conditions, this paper presents a unified theory of various hybrid problems (being a unification as well as a ...
The Effect of Current-Induced Stress Perturbation On Baroclinic Rossby Waves in a Continuously Stratified Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A shear stress at the air?sea interface is induced by the presence of surface currents. In the case of isotropic wind, a quadratic stress law leads to a stress curl proportional to and opposing the surface current vorticity. ...
Detached Eddy Simulation Simulation of Asymmetrical Flow in a High Pressure Diesel Injector
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Recent experiments have shown that the lateral motion of a high pressure injector needle can lead to significant asymmetrical flow in the sac and asymmetric spray pattern in the combustor, which in turn degrades the ...
An Evaluation of Rotated EOF Analysis and Its Application to Tropical Pacific SST Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: s an effective eigen method for phenomenon identification and space reduction, empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis is widely used in climate research. However, because of its orthorgonality constraint, EOF analysis ...
Predicting Atlantic Tropical Cyclone Seasonal Activity in April
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Seasonal hurricane forecasts are continuing to develop skill, although they are still subject to large uncertainties. This study uses a new methodology of cross-correlating variables against empirical orthogonal functions ...
On the Linear Parameterization of Drag Coefficient over Sea Surface
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Combining the logarithmic law with the Charnock relation yields a drag coefficient that is a function of wind speed with the Charnock coefficient as a parameter. It is found that the function is nearly linear within the ...
