Abstract: A technique for retrieving vertical moisture profiles from downlooking radiometric measurements of atmospheric radiation near the 183 GHz water vapor line is described. A simulation experiment utilizing this retrieval ...

Abstract: Aircraft and pressure vessel components experience stresses that are negative biaxial or multiaxial in nature. Biaxiality is defined as the ratio of stress applied parallel and normal to the crack front. In recent years, ...

Abstract: With heightened concerns on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from coal power plants, there has been a major emphasis in recent years on development of safe and economical geological carbon sequestration (GCS) technology. ...

Abstract: Aero-engine compressor blade and disk assemblies are subjected to radially outward centrifugal force due to blade rotation and the bending of the blade due to gas pressure. Static analysis is done initially to find the ...

Abstract: Coaldirect chemicallooping combustion (CDCLC) is a next generation combustion technology that shows great promise as a solution for the need of highefficiency lowcost carbon capture from fossil fueled power plants. To ...

Abstract: Chemicallooping combustion (CLC) is a nextgeneration combustion technology that shows great promise in addressing the need for highefficiency lowcost carbon capture from fossil fueled power plants. Although there have been ...

Abstract: A statistical correlation technique is applied to the retrieval of vertical moisture profiles under clear-skyconditions from down-looking radiometric measurements of atmospheric radiation at microwave wavelengths. For a ...

Abstract: The potential for simultaneous sludge minimization and enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) in Cannibal solids reduction processes was investigated. To simulate a Cannibal-EBPR system, a sequencing batch reactor ...
