Ballooning of Surface‐Advected Freshwater Bulge in a Rotating Frame

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2023
AbstractThis research delves into the intrinsic dynamics of an anticyclonic circulation that involves a ballooning bulge generated by a generalized river plume over an idealized shelf topography. The circulation features a strong jet‐stream overshooting the estuary mouth, curving toward the coast, and a returning flow along the shoreside edge.

Seismic Performance and Collapse Fragility of Balloon-Framed CLT School Building

Journal of Earthquake Engineering, 2022
Most previous research on seismic performance of cross-laminated timber (CLT) structures focused on platform-type construction. This paper investigates the seismic performance and collapse risk of a balloon-framed CLT school building, designed for Vancouver, Canada.

Balloon motion estimation using two frames

[1991] Conference Record of the Twenty-Fifth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems & Computers, 2002
A computational vision approach is presented for the estimation of 2D translation, rotation, and scale from two partially overlapping images. An illuminant direction estimation method is first used to obtain an initial estimate of camera rotation. A small number of feature points are then located based on a Gabor wavelet model for detecting local ...

Seismic performance evaluation of self-centering balloon-framed CLT building

Engineering Structures, 2023
Balloon-framed cross-laminated timber (CLT) construction has a number of advantages when compared to platform-type construction; however, many international standards only include provisions for the latter as there is little research reported on the seismic performance of the former.

The Origin of Balloon Framing

Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians, 1981
Modern interest in the balloon frame dates from 1941 when Siegfried Giedion identified the inventor of this important technological innovation in wooden construction as George Snow of Chicago. According to Giedion, Snow used the technique for the first time in 1833 to build St. Mary's Church in Chicago.
