On Meteoroid Streams Identification
Criterion for the membership of individual meteors to meteoroid streams presented by Valsecchi et. al. (1999) and Jopek et. al. (1999) is discussed. The authors characterize and use their criterion as a distance function. However, it is not a distance function. Some practical aspects are also discussed. Correct criterion is presented.
متن کاملCentrifuge Testing and Seismic Response Analysis for Uplift Behavior of Spread Foundation Structures on Rock
The uplift behavior of structures subjected to severe seismic motion has not been clarified. This paper presents experimental and analytical studies conducted for clarifying this problem of spread foundation structures on rock. First, centrifugal loading tests are conducted to determine the uplift behavior of these structures, and the uplift behavior of these structures is confirmed. Then, simu...
متن کاملGrain Size and Density Separation on Asteroids: Comparison of Seismic Shaking
Introduction: One of the most important discoveries of the NEAR Shoemaker mission to Eros was the “ponds”, flat regions (relative to surrounding terrain) inside craters that exhibit a slightly bluer reflectance spectra than most of the asteroid [1]. Ponds have been interpreted as being composed of finer-grained material than the rest of the asteroid surface. Formation processes for ponds includ...
متن کاملConcentration Slip and Its Impact on Heterogeneous Combustion in a Micro Scale Chemical Reactor
The rarefied gas effect on concentration slip and on heterogeneous combustion in microscale chemical reactors was investigated. First, a concentration slip model to describe the rarefied gas effect on the species transport in microscale chemical reactors was derived from the approximate solution of the Boltzmann equation. Second, the model was verified using the direct Monte-Carlo method for th...
متن کاملLarge Scale Terrain Generation from Tectonic Uplift and Fluvial Erosion
At large scale, landscapes result from the combination of two major processes: tectonics which generate the main relief through crust uplift, and weather which accounts for erosion. This paper presents the first method in computer graphics that combines uplift and hydraulic erosion to generate visually plausible terrains. Given a user-painted uplift map, we generate a stream graph over the enti...
