Skewness of cloud droplet spectrum and an improved estimation for its relative dispersion

Parameterization of Cloud Droplet Effective Radius: Effects of Spectral Dispersion and Skewness of Cloud Droplet Size Distributions

Effective radius re (defined as the ratio of the third to the second moment of a droplet size distribution) is one of the crucial variables that determine the radiative properties of liquid water clouds (Hansen and Travis 1974). The inclusion and parameterization of re in climate models has proven to be critical for assessing global climate change (Slingo 1990; Dandin et al. 1997). There has be...

development and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle

in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...

An Improved Skewness Measure

Skewness is an important property of a population. Although many measures have been proposed there is no consensus on what should be used in practice. We propose a new measure which is appropriate when the direction of the skewness is known a priori. It is simple to interpret and easy to estimate.

Inflation And Relative Price Dispersion: Evidence For Iran

An Improved Algorithmic Method for Software Development Effort Estimation

Accurate estimating is one of the most important activities in the field of software project management. Different aspects of software projects must be estimated among which time and effort are of significant importance to efficient project planning. Due to complexity of software projects and lack of information at the early stages of project, reliable effort estimation is a challenging issue. ...
