Cluster analysis of post-landfall tracks of landfalling tropical cyclones over China by Zhang, W., Leung, Yee-Hong, Wang, Y.

“…TCs in cluster 2 subsequently move inland and disappear due largely to westward-shift subtropical high, easterly steering flow, easterly vertical wind shear and relatively strong mountainous blocking. …”

Severe local convective storms in Bangladesh: Part II.: Environmental conditions by Yamane, Y., Hayashi, T., Dewan, Ashraf, Akter, F.

“…The comparison shows that while most convective parameters related to thermal instability can discriminate between SLCSD and NSLCSD with statistical significance, no convective parameters related to the vertical wind shear can distinguish between the two categories. …”

North Pacific Gyre Oscillation and the occurrence of western North Pacific tropical cyclones by Zhang, W., Leung, Yee-Hong, Min, J.

“…The impacts of NPGO on the TC activity are more profound than those exerted by the Pacific Decadal Oscillation and the El Niño Southern Oscillation. (2) Niño 3 plays a more important role than Niño 3.4 and Niño 4 in modulating the decadal WNP TC activity. (3) Positive low-level relative vorticity and weak zonal vertical wind shear are responsible for the increase in the WNP TC activity in negative NPGO phases. …”

Automatic aircraft landing control using nonlinear energy method by Jones, Lim Jen Nee, Akmeliawati, Rini, Tan, Chee Pin

“…Simulation result shows that the NEM is stable under scenarios such as a one-sided engine failure, a 90-degree turn, glideslopes and a wind shear. Positional tracking is also achieved in both normal and ‘extreme’ flight conditions.…”

Assessment of radar reflectivity-rainfall rate, Z-R relationships for a convective event in Malaysia by Sobli, Nuurul Hudaa, Ismail, Ahmad Fadzil, Mohd. Isa, Farah Nadia, Mansor, Hasmah

“…It is critical for the air traffic management at the airport to accurately detect existence of potential microburst and wind shear. There are numerous factors that can certainly affect the accuracy of Z-R relationships including poor hardware calibration. …”

Conceptual design and performance analysis of a biomimetic wind turbine inspired by the Dryobalanops aromatica seed / Chu Yung Jeh by Chu, Yung Jeh

“…However, the biomimetic HAWT is expected to become structurally unstable when the wind shear within the rotor is high and thus it is not recommended for large-scale turbine farms. …”

Tsunami science and engineering

“…Ma (2016) conducts similar theoretical work and describes how seismic tsunami excited gravity waves may modulate the atmospheric non-isothermality and wind shears. These brief summaries show the wide range of fascinating topics which are covered in this book. …”
