On the Factors Controlling the Eddy-Induced Transport in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study examines eddy-driven material transport by analyzing trajectories of Lagrangian particles in an idealized model of the Southern Ocean. The main focus is on the direction of the transport in the latitude?depth ...
In Vitro Evaluation of the Acetabular Cup Primary Stability by Impact Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The implant primary stability of the acetabular cup (AC) is an important parameter for the surgical success of pressfit procedures used for the insertion of cementless hip prostheses. In previous studies by our group ...
Hydrodynamic Interaction Between Two Flexible Finite Length Coaxial Cylinders: New Theoretical Formulation and Numerical Validation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This article addresses the interaction of two coaxial cylinders separated by a thin fluid layer. The cylinders are flexible, have a finite length, and are subject to a vibration mode of an Euler–Bernoulli beam. Assuming a ...
Viscous Theory for the Vibrations of Coaxial Cylinders: Analytical Formulas for the Fluid Forces and the Modal Added Coefficients
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This article addresses the small-amplitude forced beam vibrations of two coaxial finite-length cylinders separated by a viscous Newtonian fluid. A new theoretical approach based on an Helmholtz expansion of the fluid ...
Verification of Full-Scale Ozone Contactor Inactivation Performance Using Biodosimetry
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A biodosimetric technique was used to verify the concentration-contact time (CT) values [
Experimental Analysis of the Dynamic Characteristics of a Foil Thrust Bearing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper deals with the experimental analysis of the dynamic characteristics of a foil thrust bearing (FTB) designed according to specifications given by NASA scientists in 2009 (Dykas et al., 2009, “Design, Fabrication, ...
Experimental Analysis of the Unbalance Response of Rigid Rotors Supported on Aerodynamic Foil Bearings
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper presents the experimental unbalance response of two slightly different rigid rotors supported by aerodynamic foil bearings. Impulse (Pelton) turbines manufactured directly in the mass of the rotors (on the outer ...
Impact of Climate Change on Crop Yield: A Case Study of Rainfed Corn in Central Illinois
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper assesses the effect of climate change on crop yield from a soil water balance perspective. The uncertainties of regional-scale climate models, local-scale climate variability, emissions scenarios, and crop growth ...
Spatial Coherence of Monsoon Onset over Western and Central Sahel (1950–2000)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The spatial coherence of boreal monsoon onset over the western and central Sahel (Senegal, Mali, Burkina Faso) is studied through the analysis of daily rainfall data for 103 stations from 1950 to 2000. Onset date is defined ...
Intraseasonal Variability of the Saharan Heat Low and Its Link with Midlatitudes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Saharan heat low (SHL) is thought to be a key feature of the West African monsoon, and its variations during the summer season have not yet been systematically assessed. To characterize the intraseasonal variations of ...
