Abstract: A tsunami casualty model is developed with criteria based on whether a person can remain standing within tsunami flow. A simplified model of a human body is made using anthropometric data. By applying the model to tsunami ...

Abstract: The analytic and numeric models of the fully nonlinear shallow-water theory are used to compute the temporal and spatial variations of water depth and flow velocity of tsunami runup on a uniformly sloping beach, from which ...

Abstract: A preliminary fluid flow modeling, analysis, and simulation of the gas pressure profile within a 259 cm long coaxial cable is presented. This coaxial cable is part of the antenna system of ...

Abstract: In practical analysis, under a plane stress condition, a unidirectional lamina can be assumed with E2=E3 from geometrical symmetry consideration. However, from an academic point of view, it is ...

Abstract: The solute transport equation is commonly used to describe the migration and fate of solutes in a groundwater flow system. Depending on the problem nature, the source of the solute may be represented as a point source term ...

Abstract: The effective operations of a high voltage vacuum electronic device, such as a traveling wave tube, depends on its ability to maintain high vacuum environments. However, during temperature tests, ...

Abstract: Cost estimating is a computational process that attempts to predict the final cost of a future project even though not all of the parameters are known when the cost estimate is prepared. Artificial neural networks are a ...

Abstract: Thermal control has become a critical factor in the design of electronic equipment because of the recent trends in the electronic industry towards increased miniaturization of components and ...

Abstract: By utilizing the mathematical analogy between the electrostatic fields and the elastic stress field, the electrostatic stresses in high voltage electronic device such as Traveling Wave Tubes (TWT) ...
