Unexpected High Winds in Northern New Jersey: A Downslope Windstorm in Modest Topography
This study presents the first evidence for the occurrence of a downslope windstorm in New Jersey. During the early morning hours of 4 January 2009, an unanticipated strong wind event was observed. Despite a zone forecast calling for winds less than 4 m s issued 4 h prior to the event, winds up to 23 m s were reported at High Point, New Jersey (elevation 550 m), with gusts to 30 m s in its immed...
متن کاملAn Observational and Numerical Study of a Regional-scale Downslope Flow in Northern Arizona
During the month-long METCRAX field campaign in northern Arizona near Winslow in October 2006, observed wind profiles uncovered a frequent presence of a nearsurface wind maximum on nights with relatively quiescent synoptic conditions. The development of this flow usually began shortly after sunset with a shift from disorganized wind directions accompanying weak winds in late afternoon to a more...
متن کاملnumerical simulation of downslope flows in a confined stratified region
geophysical fluids such as atmosphere and ocean often have stable density stratification; hence internal gravity waves are generated and propagated through them which are important in momentum and energy transfer in these media. these waves are also believed to generate layered structures in such media. recently there have been numerous theoretical, experimental and numerical studies on the way...
متن کاملNumerical Analysis of Severe Plastic Deformation by High Pressure Torsion
High-pressure torsion (HPT) is a metal processing method in which the sample is subjected to a very high plastic shear deformation. This process can produce exceptional levels of grain refinement, and provides a corresponding improvement in mechanical properties. To investigate the stress and strain distribution due to HPT process finite element simulation were conducted to investigate effectiv...
متن کاملSerendipitous Data Following a Severe Windstorm in an Old-Growth Pine Stand
Reliable dimensional data for old-growth pinedominated forests in the Gulf Coastal Plain of Arkansas are hard to find, but sometimes unfortunate circumstances provide good opportunities to acquire this information. On July 11, 2013, a severe thunderstorm with high winds struck the Levi Wilcoxon Demonstration Forest (LWDF) near Hamburg, Arkansas. This storm uprooted or snapped dozens of large pi...
