[1] The low-frequency induced electric field in the near-Earth interplanetary medium is investigated observationally. These electric field fluctuations are associated with magnetohydrodynamic-scale fluctuations of the magnetic field and plasma velocity. Results of the study, based upon hourly samples with variations computed relative to 4-day means, indicate that the electric field distribution...

Of interest is the spectral character of wind turbine noise at typical residential set-back distances. In this paper, a spectral statistical analysis has been applied to immission measurements conducted at three locations. This method provides discrete probability density functions for the Turbine ONLY component of the measured noise. This analysis is completed for one-third octave sound levels...

A theoretical wind profile algorithm is implemented into a hurricane wind analysis tool to improve a 2-dimensional objective wind analysis. Validation of hurricane surface wind speeds from remote sensing technology has been difficult due to a lack of sufficient storm data needed for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Hurricane Research Division Real Time Hurricane Wind Analysis...

Air traffic automation depends on accurate trajectory predictions. Flight tests show that wind errors are a large source of error. Wind-field accuracy is sufficient on average, but large errors occasionally exist that cause significant errors in trajectory-prediction. A year long study was conducted to better understand the wind-prediction errors, to establish metrics for quantifying large erro...

wind erosion is a significant problem on 20 million ha of iran, especially in central plains and coastal areas. winderosion samplers, meteorological equipments and measurement procedure have been developed over the last twocenturies to measure the particles moving across the field in modes of creep, saltation and suspension. in recentresearch as the first technical measurement in iran, wind ero...

in a steam power plant, the temperature of the cooling water leaving the condenser for recyclingshould decrease. this is achieved in a cooling tower. the heller cooling tower does not require waterfor operation, thus, it is a suitable system for use in thermal power plants throughout iran. wind is anenvironmental factor that unfavorably affects the performance of a cooling tower. previous studi...
