Integrated Cost-Analysis Approach for Seismic and Thermal Improvement of Masonry Building Façades

Buildings, 2020
The combination of structural and thermal efficiency is a new frontier in civil engineering. Indeed, the retrofitting strategies should optimize costs and technical solutions from these two points of view.

Operational C-Band Dual-Polarization Radar QPE for the Subtropical Complex Terrain of Taiwan

Advances in Meteorology, 2016
Complex terrain poses significant challenges to the radar based quantitative precipitation estimation (QPE) because of blockages to the lower tilts of radar observations. The blockages often force the use of higher tilts data to estimate precipitation at

Stochastic finite elements: Where is the physics? [PDF]

Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2011
The micromechanics based on the Hill-Mandel condition indicates that the majority of stochastic finite element methods hinge on random field (RF) models of material properties (such as Hooke’s law) having no physical content, or even at odds with ...

Quantum Effects on the Mesoscale

Particles, 2020
In different areas of mechanics, highly non-equilibrium processes are accompanied by self-organization of various type turbulent structures and localized inhomogeneities at intermediate scale between macro and micro levels.

Simulating Atmospheric Characteristics and Daytime Astronomical Seeing Using Weather Research and Forecasting Model

Applied Sciences, 2023
The present study is aimed at the development of a novel empirical base for application to ground-based astronomical telescopes. A Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model is used for description of atmospheric flow structure with a high spatial ...

Monitoring Mesoscale to Submesoscale Processes in Large Lakes with Sentinel-1 SAR Imagery: The Case of Lake Geneva

Remote Sensing, 2022
As in oceans, large-scale coherent circulations such as gyres and eddies are ubiquitous features in large lakes that are subject to the Coriolis force.

Interplanetary mesoscale observatory (InterMeso): A mission to untangle dynamic mesoscale structures throughout the heliosphere

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
Mesoscale dynamics are a fundamental process in space physics, but fall within an observational gap of current and planned missions. Particularly in the solar wind, measurements at the mesoscales (100s RE to a few degrees heliographic longitude at 1 au ...

The Role of Mesoscale Plasma Sheet Dynamics in Ring Current Formation

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
During geomagnetically active periods ions are transported from the magnetotail into the inner magnetosphere and accelerated to energies of tens to hundreds of keV. These energetic ions, of mixed composition with the most important species being H+ and O+

Oceanic Advection Controls Mesoscale Mixed Layer Heat Budget and Air-sea Heat Exchange in the Southern Ocean

, 2021
We analyze the role of mesoscale heat advection in the Southern Ocean mixed layer (ML) heat budget using a regional high-resolution coupled model, with realistic atmospheric forcing and an idealized ocean component.
