Abstract. This second part of a numerical study on shallow-cumulus dilution focuses the sensitivity cloud to changes in vertical wind profile. Insights are obtained through large-eddy simulations maritime and continental fields. In these simulations, speed initially uniform geostrophic strength shear subcloud layer varied. Increases cloud-layer (up 9 ms-1km-1) lead 40 %–50 % larger cloud-core r...

Accelerometer measurements made by Spirit and Opportunity during their entries through the martian atmosphere are reported. Vertical profiles of atmospheric density, pressure, and temperature with sub-km vertical resolution were obtained using these data between 10 and 100 km. Spirit’s temperature profile is ∼10 K warmer than Opportunity’s between 20 and 80 km. Unlike all other martian entry pr...

the vehicle driving comfort has become one of the important factors of vehicle quality and receives increasing attention. in this paper, optimal points of vehicle suspension parameters are generated using modified non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (nsga-ii) for pareto optimization of 5-degree of freedom vehicle vibration model considering three conflicting functions simultaneously. in thi...
