Discussion: “Compression of a Thin Plastic Mass Between Two Elastic Cylinders” (Wilson, E. A., 1969, ASME J. Lubr. Technol., 91, pp. 342–349)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
An Explanation for Intense Frontal Updrafts and Narrow Cold-Frontal Rainbands
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Measurements with Doppler radar, and instrumented aircraft and towers, have revealed that surface cold fronts often have cross-frontal circulations organized on a scale of a kilometer or less. These circulations include ...
History of Technology Policy—Commercial Nuclear Power
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The present paper describes the rise and fall of nuclear power as a case history of a U.S. technology policy. The case history is relevant to the recent revival of discussions on national technology policies. Such policies, ...
Engineering in Context: Engineering in Developing Countries
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper is the beginning of a handbook geared toward engineering students who want to work in developing countries in a socially responsible manner. The paper discusses socially responsible engineering in the field of ...
Discussion of “Three-Dimensional Numerical Study of Flows in Open-Channel Junctions” by Jianchun Huang, Larry J. Weber, and Yong G. Lai
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
A Technique for Real-Time, Quantitative Display of APT Scanning Radiometer Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method for gridding scanning radiometer (SR) data is outlined in complete detail. This gridding method, coupled with a suggested display technique, enables one to produce a real-time quantitative display of APT service ...
On the Remote Detection of Swell by Satellite Radar Altimeter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A technique is presented whereby the presence of swell can be determined from satellites in orbit. Utilizing an empirical model developed during JONSWAP, a parameter is derived that is shown to be related to the percentage ...
A Comparison of Dirichlet and Neumann Wavemakers for the Numerical Generation and Propagation of Nonlinear Long-Crested Surface Waves
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We are studying numerically the problem of generation and propagation of long-crested gravity waves in a tank containing an incompressible inviscid homogeneous fluid initially at rest with a ...
