Interstitially filled skutterudites are a promising class of state-of-the-art thermoelectric
materials. Although thermoelectrics are exposed to significant thermal stresses, little
information is known about the fracture toughness of interstitially doped skutterudites. This
work explores the fracture toughness of undoped Co₄Sb₁₂ and indium doped In₀.₁Co₄Sb₁₂
skutterudites using three methods: 1) Vickers...
An experimental investigation of a two·dimensional turbulent jet in a quiescent environment has been
carried out to determine the structural characteristics of the outer, intermittent turbulent motion. An
overall picture of this motion was deduced from the results which indicate that, on the average, the
turbulent bulges are of the...
Observations of sea surface temperature and wave height were made from a large, manned spar buoy (R/P FLIP) ~100 km off the coast of Baja California. Surface temperature was measured with a radiation thermometer which viewed a disc on the surface 12 cm in diameter. The instrument responded to frequencies...
Observations were made of downward solar radiation as a function of depth during an experiment in the North Pacific (35°N, 155°W). The irradiance meter employed was sensitive to solar radiation of wavelength 400–1000 nm arriving from above at a horizontal surface. Because of selective absorption of the short and long...
The location of the Antarctic Polar Front (PF) was mapped over a 7-year period (1987-1993) within images of satellite-deprived sea surface temperature. The mean path of the PF is strongly steered by the topographic features of the Southern Ocean. The topography places vorticity constraints on the dynamics of the PF...
The subtidal salt balance and the mechanisms driving the downgradient salt flux in the Hudson River estuary are investigated using measurements from a cross-channel mooring array of current meters, temperature and conductivity sensors, and cross-channel and along-estuary shipboard surveys obtained during the spring of 2002. Steady (subtidal) vertical shear dispersion,...
