Due to the lower efficiency and the larger wind direction error of traditional algorithms, a novel integrated wind retrieval algorithm is proposed for conically scanning scatterometers. The proposed algorithm has the dual advantages of less computational cost and higher wind direction retrieval accuracy by integrating the wind speed standard deviation (WSSD) algorithm and the wind direction int...

A two-dimensional form of cross-covariance function between the radar radialand tangential-components (with respect to the direction of radar beam) of background wind errors is derived. Like the previously derived auto-covariance function for the radial-component, this cross-covariance function is homogeneous but non-isotropic in the horizontal. The autoand cross-covariance functions are used w...

designing and manufacturing the multiple jets simulator and experimental investigation of the multiple jets in crossflow at low velocity ratios have been studied together with design and build a low-speed wind tunnel. a specific rake is used to determine the flow field pressure and changes in static pressure measured by pressure taps in the near field of the jets. there are generally three regi...

We present hydrodynamical simulations, using a 2-D two fluid model, of bow shocks in a representative regime for pulsar wind driven bow-shock nebulae. We also investigate the behaviour of a passive toroidal magnetic field wounded around the pulsar velocity direction. Moreover we estimate the opacity of the bow-shock to penetration of ISM neutral hydrogen. Finally we compare these numerical resu...

the kashan erg is one of the most important sand dune complexes in iran. being affected by wind erosion, theerg's borderlands face numerous problems as a result of sand movement. to evaluate the risk of sands moving intoresidential areas near the kashan erg, anemometry data from synoptic stations located in kashan, ardestan, meimeh,naeen, and qom were collected and analyzed to calculate the san...

In this using paper a method is presented for the aerodynamic and structural analysis of a horizontal axis wind turbine using simplified methods. In the first part of the program the optimum rotor configuration for twist and chord is determined using the momentum and blade element theories for a rotor without coning or tilting and assuming zero drag average wind velocity. Then coning angle and ...

From June 1994 to December 1995 the Ulysses spacecraft was within 3 AU of the Sun and traveled from high southern to high northern heliospheric latitudes. For this period, SWOOPS instrument data obtained when the magnetic field was approximately aligned with the radial direction from the Sun have been analyzed. In the fast wind at high latitudes, two resolvable proton components are typically p...

In this research paper, a 10 minute period measured wind speed data at 10 m, 30 m, and 40 m heights are presented for one of the major provinces of Iran. Four stations in Khuzestan- Abadan, Hosseyneh, Mahshahr, and Shushtar- are analyzed to determine the potential of wind power generation in this province. From the primary evaluation and by determining mean wind speed and also the Weibull f...

Under the light of recent developments of the theory of matter-radiation interaction in the presence of magnetic field applied to non-LTE spectropolarimetry in astrophysics, we have revisited the theory of anisotropic resonance line scattering in moving media by means of the density-matrix formulation. This has led us to present a theoretical method of determination of the matter velocity field...
