Abstract: Sloshing in LNG membrane tanks may cause large pressures on the tank structure. To keep the cargo at the required low temperature, the tank structure is covered with an insulation, which has ...

Abstract: sing historical sources derived from 12 Polish digital libraries, an investigation into killer tornado events was carried out. Although some of the cases took place more than 150 years ago, it was still possible to identify ...

Abstract: In this study, a 10-yr (2008–17) radar-based mesoscale convective system (MCS) and derecho climatology for Poland is presented. This is one of the first attempts of a European country to investigate morphological and ...

Abstract: ery few studies on the occurrence of tornadoes in Poland have been performed and, therefore, their temporal and spatial variability have not been well understood. This article describes an updated climatology of tornadoes ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of a multiobjective laboratory study on scaling resistance of ternary concrete containing Class C fly ash (FA) and silica fume (SF). Several experimental variables were included in the ...

Abstract: Sloshing, a violent fluid motion in tanks is of current interest for many branches of the industry, among them gas shipping. Although different methods are commonly combined for analyzing ...

Abstract: Background. New challenges in LNG shipping, such as ship size growth, trading routes with more severe weather conditions, need for operating with unrestricted filling level and new propulsion ...

Abstract: his research focuses on the climatology of cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning flashes based on PERUN lightning detection network data from 2002 to 2013. To present various CG lightning flash characteristics, 10 km ? 10 km grid ...

Abstract: bserved proximity soundings from Europe are used to highlight how well environmental parameters discriminate different kind of severe thunderstorm hazards. In addition, the skill of parameters in predicting lightning and ...

Abstract: The authors investigate the behavior of buoyancy-driven coastal currents in a series of numerical experiments based on a two-layer frontal geostrophic model. The model focuses on baroclinic instability, allows for finite ...
