Numerical Simulation of a Rising Seawall for Coastal Flood Protection
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The no-energy and no-operation rising seawall (NEORISE) is a new type of structure for protection against tsunamis and coastal flooding. It is installed in a gap in flood defenses and usually rests on land. It can close ...
Estimation of Land Surface Temperature over the Tibetan Plateau Using GMS Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Geostationary Meteorological Satellite Visible/Infrared Spin-Scan Radiometer (GMS VISSR) images have been used to estimate diurnal variations of land surface temperature distributions over the Tibetan Plateau. The infrared ...
Estimation of Land Surface Heat Fluxes over the Tibetan Plateau Using GMS Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A Surface Energy Balance System (SEBS) originally developed for the NOAA Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer was applied to Geostationary Meteorological Satellite (GMS)-5 Visible/Infrared Spin-Scan Radiometer data ...
Circular Dynamic Stereoscopy and Its Application for Fluid Measurement
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: By attaching a refractor to the lens of a Video Capture Device (e.g., CCD Video Camera) it is possible to record optical displacements from the original position of any object (tracer particle) ...
Comparison of Global and Seasonal Characteristics of Cloud Phase and Horizontal Ice Plates Derived from CALIPSO with MODIS and ECMWF
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study analyzed the global and seasonal characteristics of cloud phase and ice crystal orientation (CTYPE-lidar) by using the Cloud?Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) on board the Cloud?Aerosol Lidar ...
Experimental Study on Real-Time Tsunami Protection Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Two kinds of new tsunami protection structures have been developed: a flap-gate breakwater named FLAPGATE, and a flap-gate seawall named No Energy and no Operation Rising Seawall (NEORISE). These structures are similar to ...
Recent Trends in Land Surface Temperature on the Tibetan Plateau
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The diurnal, seasonal, and interannual variations in land surface temperature (LST) on the Tibetan Plateau from 1996 to 2002 are analyzed using the hourly LST dataset obtained by Japanese Geostationary Meteorological ...
Development of Hydrodynamic Mechanical Face Seal for Aircraft Engine Gearboxes With Gas–Liquid Hybrid Lubrication
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. In high-speed rotating equipment such as turbomachinery, low-loss, low-wear, and low-leakage sealing technology is needed to achieve higher efficiency, longer service life, and lower environmental impact. The ...
Modified Prediction Model of Tensile Properties for Thermally Aged Cast Austenitic Stainless Steel of Static Cast
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. It is known that the tensile properties of cast austenitic stainless steel (CASS) increase, and the fracture toughness decreases due to thermal aging. The JSME on Fitness for Service (FFS) provides evaluation ...
A Simple Method for In Vivo Measurement of Implant Rod Three-Dimensional Geometry During Scoliosis Surgery
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Scoliosis is defined as a spinal pathology characterized as a three-dimensional deformity of the spine combined with vertebral rotation. Treatment for severe scoliosis is achieved when the scoliotic ...
