RISApplication of Adjoint Sensitivity Theory to an Atmospheric General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Sensitivity studies with climate models usually involve rerunning the model. Since climate models take so much computer time, this approach can be used to calculate sensitivities to only a few parameters. This work ...
Determining the Minimum Number of Stochastically Generated Point Precipitation Records Required to Model Basinwide Precipitation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a general expression that may be used to determine the minimum number of locations in a river basin at which cross-correlated point precipitation time series must be stochastically generated to adequately ...
Bias Correction to GEV Shape Parameters Used to Predict Precipitation Extremes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Previous studies have shown that the shape parameter of the generalized extreme-value (GEV) distribution, a distribution commonly applied in precipitation frequency analysis, is difficult to estimate from short records ...
Design for Manufacturing: Geometric Manufacturability Evaluation for Five-Axis Milling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The geometric manufacturability of a part design is an important decision factor for various manufacturing applications and is especially critical for the machining process. In machining, the geometric manufacturability ...
Machinability Analysis for 3-Axis Flat End Milling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a method for geometric machinability analysis. The implementation of the strategy determines the machinability of a part being processed using a plurality of 3-axis machining ...
Computing Axes of Rotation for Setup Planning Using Visibility of Polyhedral Computer-Aided Design Models
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a method for determining feasible axes of rotation for setup planning, based on the visibility of a polyhedral model. The intent of this work was to develop a feature-free ...
Predicting the Onset of the North Australian Wet Season with the POAMA Dynamical Prediction System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: forecast product focusing on the onset of the north Australian wet season using a dynamical ocean?atmosphere model is developed and verified. Onset is defined to occur when a threshold rainfall accumulation of 50 mm is ...
Adsorption of RDX and its Nitroso Metabolites onto Activated Carbon
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Groundwater contaminated with the high explosive Demolition eXplosive, or hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) may also contain the nitroso-RDX metabolites hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine (MNX), ...
Modulation of South Indian Ocean Tropical Cyclones by the Madden–Julian Oscillation and Convectively Coupled Equatorial Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The subseasonal modulation of tropical cyclone (TC) genesis by large-scale atmospheric wave modes is studied using data from the south Indian Ocean region. The modes considered are the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO), and ...
