A Dual Diffusion Chamber for Observing Ice Crystal Growth on c-Axis Ice Needles [PDF]
, 2014 We describe a dual diffusion chamber for observing ice crystal growth from water vapor in air as a function of temperature and supersaturation. In the first diffusion chamber, thin c-axis ice needles with tip radii ~100 nm are grown to lengths of ~2 mm ...

Can hail and rain nucleate cloud droplets?
, 2017 We present results from moist convection in a mixture of pressurized sulfur hexa-flouride (liquid and vapor) and helium (gas) to model the wet and dry components of the earth's atmosphere.

Estimation of local ice load by analyzing shear strain data from the IBRV ARAON's 2016 Arctic voyage
International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2018 The icebreaking research vessel ARAON performed ice field tests during her 2016 Arctic voyage. The ship is subjected to ice loads through ice–ship interaction processes.

Numerical modelling of hailstone impact on the leading edge of a wind turbine blade [PDF]
, 2013 The scale of modern blades means that tip speeds in excess of 100ms-1 are now common in utility scale turbines. Coupling this with a hailstone terminal velocity ranging from 9ms-1 to 40ms-1, the relative impact velocity becomes highly significant.

Thermodynamic Limits on Magnetodynamos in Rocky Exoplanets
, 2010 To ascertain whether magnetic dynamos operate in rocky exoplanets more massive or hotter than the Earth, we developed a parametric model of a differentiated rocky planet and its thermal evolution.

Formation of Cracks in Ice Plates by Thermal Shock
Nature, 1961 Thermal shock crack patterns were found to be almost entirely dependent on crystalllographic orientation. One crack pattern studied consisted of a system of equilateral triangles parallel to the crystalllographic "a" directions. This occurred in the case where the axis of hexagonal symmetry is perpendicular to the plate surface.

Radar systems for a polar mission, volume 3, appendices A-D, S, T [PDF]
Success is reported in the radar monitoring of such features of sea ice as concentration, floe size, leads and other water openings, drift, topographic features such as pressure ridges and hummocks, fractures, and a qualitative indication of age and ...

Optimal control of the heave motion of marine cable subsea-unit systems [PDF]
, 1995 One of the key problems associated with subsea operations involving tethered subsea units is the motions of support vessels on the ocean surface which can be transmitted to the subsea unit through the cable and increase the tension.

Visualization Study on Ice Formation in Water and Dimethyl Sulfoxide Solution
Zhileng xuebao, 2022 Ice formation during freezing and rewarming processes is a key factor that affects the success rate of cell cryopreservation. The discovery of the formation and inhibition mechanism of ice crystals in various scenarios is highly significant for clinical ...
