An enhanced grid system for the Orbiter was built by integrating CAD definitions from several sources and then generating the surface and volume grids. The new grid system contains geometric components not modelled previously plus significant enhancements on geometry that has been modelled in the old grid system. The new Orbiter grids were then integrated with new grids for the rest of the laun...

Abstract. The tested data assimilation (DA) method based on EOF (Empirical Orthogonal Functions) reconstruction of observations decreased centred root-mean-square difference (RMSD) surface temperature (SST) and salinity (SSS) in reference to the NE Baltic Sea by 22 % 34 %, respectively, compared control run without DA. is covariance estimates from long-term model data. amplitudes pre-calculated...

The generation of computational grids on surfaces of three-dimensional configurations is an important component of many areas of computational research, both as a boundary grid for volume grid generation or to perform computations on the surface. For reasons of computational efficiency, structured grids remain widely used in areas such as the computation of aerodynamic flows. Elliptic grid gene...

A method of preparing grid deviation maps for the representation of the areal composition variations in granitic bodies is described. A comparative study of this method and the trend surface method by using the data of forty-five modal analyses of Bahalda hornblende granodiorite indicates greater effectiveness of the former in several respects. THE point count method of modal analysis has made ...

introduction: the modis facility for the earth observing system is a key element that supports ambitious goals related to studying the earth as a system. one of the modis products is high quality land surface temperature data that product in terra and aqua platforms. knowledge of the lst provides information on the temporal and spatial variations of the surface equilibrium state and is of funda...

Focal cortical cooling inhibits seizures and prevents acquired epileptogenesis in rodents. To investigate the potential clinical utility of this treatment modality, we examined the thermal characteristics of canine and human brain undergoing active and passive surface cooling in intraoperative settings. Four patients with intractable epilepsy were treated in a standard manner. Before the resect...
