Download or read book Hailstone Extremes for Design written by Irving I. Gringorten and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To a climatologist, concerned with design criteria, hailstones offer one of the greatest challenges. The risk or probability of occurrence of hailstones is needed for the revision of MIL-STD-210A, 'Climatic Extremes for Military Equipment.' Eventually some kind of instrumentaiton, using radar or hailpads, is expected to measure the destructive power of hailstorms, but for this study, the literature had led only to tentative figures for the distribution of diameters.

Download or read book Synopsis of Background Material for MIL STD 210B Climatic Extremes for Military Equipment written by Norman Sissenwine and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Design Climatology Branch of the Air Force Cambridge Research Laboratories had the scientific responsibility for leading a DoD Task Group effort to revise MIL-STD-210A 'Climatic Extremes for Military Equipment'. This document represents the fruition of the goals of the task group. It relates the background studies supporting the values in MIL-STD-210B, so that MIL-STD-210B users need to consult only this single document for an elaboration on the MIL- STD-210B extremes. In addition, the report contains information on the origin, necessity for and the events leading to a revision of MIL-STD-210A. Discussions of the major changes in the Standard's philosophy and its contents are also provided.

Download or read book Extremes of Hydrometeors at Altitude for MIL STD 210B written by Norman Sissenwine and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extremes of precipitation aloft--which would be exceeded with only 0. 5 percent probability in the rainy tropics during the rainiest months--are mandatory for design of military equipment that must operate at altitude any place in the world. Also needed are greatest extremes at altitude which should be considered in design when equipment failure, during encounters of improbable intensities, would endanger human life. Frequency distributions of such rainfall intensities and the associated liquid water content in the precipitation and clouds are not available in the climatic inventory. By extrapolating upward, there are developed nearly instantaneous surface precipitation intensities with appropriate probabilities, utilizing available research data, four models, and tabulations of water content aloft. Complete findings are presented in a single table which includes intensities, liquid water content of precipitation, and liquid water content of cloud particles for nine levels up to 18 km for storms applicable to MIL-STD-210B design philosophy.

Book excerpt: The objectives of the American Meteorological Society are "the development and dissemination of knowledge of meteorology in all its phases and applications, and the advancement of its professional ideals." The organization of the Society took place in affiliation with the American Association for the Advancement of Science at Saint Louis, Missouri, December 29, 1919, and its incorporation, at Washington, D. C., January 21, 1920. The work of the Society is carried on by the Bulletin, the Journal, and Meteorological Monographs, by papers and discussions at meetings of the Society, through the offices of the Secretary and the Executive Secretary, and by correspondence. All of the Americas are represented in the membership of the Society as well as many foreign countries.
