RISA Mapping Methodology Adapted to all Polar and Subpolar Oceans with a Stretching/Shrinking Constraint
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Variabilities of the Sea Surface Height in the Kuril Basin of the Sea of Okhotsk: Coherent Shelf-Trapped Mode and Rossby Normal Modes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A time series analysis of the sea surface height anomaly (SSHa) was conducted in the Kuril Basin of the Sea of Okhotsk. The mapping of the satellite-derived SSHa data was optimized to mitigate the effects of sea ice on the ...

Thermal Mass Correction for the Evaluation of Salinity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper revisits the thermal mass inertia correction of Sea-Bird Electronics, Inc., (SBE4) conductivity probes for the calculation of salinity. In particular, it is shown that the standard parameters recommended for the ...
Live Load Distribution Factors in Two-Girder Bridge Systems Using Precast Trapezoidal U-Girders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The lever rule method is often used to determine live load distribution factors (LDFs) in two-girder bridge systems because of the ranges of applicability implicit in the simplified equations of the AASHTO LRFD bridge ...
Acoustic Damper Placement and Tuning for Annular Combustors: An Adjoint-Based Optimization Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Thermoacoustic instabilities pose a major threat to modern gas turbines. The use of acoustic dampers, like Helmholtz resonators, has proven useful for the mitigation of such instabilities. However, assessing the effect of ...
Developing a Sustainable Pavement Management Plan: Tradeoffs in Road Condition, User Costs, and Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Highway maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) planning is a multifaceted decision-making process that requires the consideration of multiple but often conflicting objectives. Traditionally, state highway agencies (SHAs) ...
Budget Allocation Models for Pavement Maintenance and Rehabilitation: Comparative Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A principal component of maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) planning is the allocation of limited funds to candidate projects to achieve optimal levels of system performance. This paper objectively compares three ...
Solution of Thermoacoustic Eigenvalue Problems With a Noniterative Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Gas turbine combustors are prone to undesirable combustion dynamics in the form of thermoacoustic oscillations. Analysis of the stability of thermoacoustic systems in the frequency domain leads to nonlinear eigenvalue ...
