An idealised modelling study of sting-jet cyclones is presented. Sting jets are descending mesoscale jets that occur in some extratropical cyclones and produce localised regions of strong low-level winds in the frontal fracture region. Moist baroclinic lifecycle (LC1) simulations are performed with modifications to produce cyclones resembling observed sting-jet cyclones. A sting jet exists in t...

in this research, the efficiency of the comminution circuit as well as the efficiency of size classification equipment of the concentrator plant 2 of sarcheshmeh copper complex was studied. the comminution circuit of this plant includes one sag mill in a closed circuit with a vibrating screen and one ball mill with a size classification system of hydrocyclone. the goal of this work was to calcu...

Recent work has developed a new framework for the impact of vertical wind shear on the intensity evolution of tropical cyclones. A focus of this framework is on the frustration of the tropical cyclone’s power machine by shearinduced, persistent downdrafts that flush relatively cool and dry (lower equivalent potential temperature, θe) air into the storm’s inflow layer. These previous results hav...

New equations have been developed to predict the effect of geometrical dimensions of tangential cyclones on their operational performances. To check the validity of the derived equations, an experimental apparatus was set up and some experimental work was performed. It was observed that the experimental results confirm properly the theoretical predictions.

A novel method is introduced to generate climatological frequency distributions of meteorological features from gridded datasets. The method is used here to derive a climatology of extratropical cyclones from sea level pressure (SLP) fields. A simple and classical conception of cyclones is adopted where a cyclone is identified as the finite area that surrounds a local SLP minimum and is enclose...
