A Program In Urban Hydrology, Part Ii: An Evaluation Of Rainfall-Runoff For Small Urbanized Watersheds And The Effect Of Urbanization On Runoff
Unidimensional Turbulence in a Sheet Flow Under Rainfall - A Stochastic Analysis
Probability distributions of longitudinal velocity fluctuations are presented for cases with and without rainfall. They deviate from the normal distribution. These velocity fluctuations are fitted by an autoregressive - moving average process. The process explains adequately the variance of the series
International Space Station Electric Power System Performance Code-SPACE
The System Power Analysis for Capability Evaluation (SPACE) software analyzes and predicts the minute-by-minute state of the International Space Station (ISS) electrical power system (EPS) for upcoming missions as well as EPS power generation capacity as a function of ISS configuration and orbital conditions. In order to complete the Certification of Flight Readiness (CoFR) process in which the mission is certified for flight each ISS System must thoroughly assess every proposed mission to verify that the system will support the planned mission operations; SPACE is the sole tool used to conduct these assessments for the power system capability. SPACE is an integrated power system model that incorporates a variety of modules tied together with integration routines and graphical output. The modules include orbit mechanics, solar array pointing/shadowing/thermal and electrical, battery performance, and power management and distribution performance. These modules are tightly integrated within a flexible architecture featuring data-file-driven configurations, source- or load-driven operation, and event scripting. SPACE also predicts the amount of power available for a given system configuration, spacecraft orientation, solar-array-pointing conditions, orbit, and the like. In the source-driven mode, the model must assure that energy balance is achieved, meaning that energy removed from the batteries must be restored (or balanced) each and every orbit. This entails an optimization scheme to ensure that energy balance is maintained without violating any other constraints
