A great diversity is known to exist in the coma morphology of comets. In particular, some comets show much structural detail in their heads (such as jets, halos, fans, plumes, streamers), while others have completely structureless comas. Obvious questions arise as to why is this so and what does the presence or absence of features tell us about the emission processes on cometary nuclei. In an effort to investigate these problems, a computer code that generates synthetic images of dust comets...

A graphically interactive derivative of the EAGLE boundary code is presented. This code allows the user to interactively build and execute commands and immediately see the results. Strong ties with a batch oriented script language are maintained. A generalized treatment of grid definition parameters allows a more generic definition of the grid generation process and allows the generation of command scripts which can be applied to topologically similar configurations. The use of the graphical...

Several areas of research which contribute to the development of a global model for atmospheric backscatter at CO2 wavelengths are discussed briefly. A computer program was written which fits a bimodal log-normal model to an aerosol size distribution. A ten-layer atmospheric model used to study the effect of gravitational sedimentation on aerosol particle size distribution was expanded by incorporating the transport effect due to vertical diffusion. Future research directions are outlined.

Subsolidus lithospheric thinning by mantle plumes may be involved in the creation of swells, hotspots, and rifts. Among the major questions concerning this process are the timescale on which it occurs and the structure of the plumes. The lithosphere is known to have been substantially thinned in 10 Ma or less. Current studies are focused on the lithospheric thinning by time-dependent plumes hypothesized to have large temperature differences across them.

This paper proposes that the distinguishing characteristic of Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) systems is that they allow programming by making quantified programmatic assertions over programs written by programmers oblivious to such assertions. Thus, AOP systems can be analyzed with respect to three critical dimensions: the kinds of quantifications allowed, the nature of the actions that can be asserted, and the mechanism for combining base-level actions with asserted actions. Consequences of...

Small Business Innovation Research contracts from Goddard Space Flight Center to Thermacore Inc. have fostered the company work on devices tagged "heat pipes" for space application. To control the extreme temperature ranges in space, heat pipes are important to spacecraft. The problem was to maintain an 8-watt central processing unit (CPU) at less than 90 C in a notebook computer using no power, with very little space available and without using forced convection. Thermacore's answer...

Annotating a letter by a number, one can record information about its history during a reduction. A string rewriting system is called match-bounded if there is a global upper bound to these numbers. In earlier papers we established match-boundedness as a strong sufficient criterion for both termination and preservation of regular languages. We show now that the string rewriting system whose inverse (left and right hand sides exchanged) is match-bounded, also have exceptional properties, but...

Predicted XV-15 exterior surface acoustic pressures are compared with previously published experimental data. Surface acoustic pressure transducers were concentrated near the tip-path-plane of the rotor in airplane mode. The comparison emphasized cruise conditions which are of interest for tiltrotor interior noise - level flight for speeds ranging from 72 m/s to 113 m/s. The predictions were produced by components of the NASA Langley Tiltrotor Aeroacoustic Code (TRAC) system of computer codes....

A process by which metal matrix composites can be made was presented. The process involves putting a powder slurry on fibers to make a precursor green tape. These green tapes are cut, stacked and hot pressed to form the fully dense composite. A computer program was presented which enables complete quantification and control of the process. Once some easily obtained properties of the slurry and its behavior are determined (such as the shrinkage from the wet to green state, and the density of the...

The recent trend in numerical modeling of turbine film cooling flows has been toward higher fidelity grids and more complex geometries. This trend has been enabled by the rapid increase in computing power available to researchers. However, the turbine design community requires fast turnaround time in its design computations, rendering these comprehensive simulations ineffective in the design cycle. The present study describes a methodology for implementing a volumetric source term distribution...

Turnkey Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) data acquisition systems typically perform well and meet most of the objectives of the manufacturer. The problem is that they seldom meet most of the objectives of the end user. The analysis software, if any, is unlikely to be tailored to the end users specific application; and there is seldom the chance of incorporating preferred algorithms to solve unique problems. Purchasing a customized system allows the end user to get a system tailored to the actual...

Human participation and influence dominate combat, but the effects of human factors or performance are frequently neglected in the Army's combat models. A need exists for better representation of the human dimension of combat in our simulation models.

The corner vortex originating in the hull-sail intersection region is an important component of the submarine flow field. The vortex may play a major role in overall drag, wake development and propeller performance, and may be a major acoustic source. The flow itself is complex, being three-dimensional, viscous and turbulent. Earlier work computed the flow field around the hull and the sail. The present report focuses on the portion of the flow in the hull-sail corner downstream of the sail...

Essentially, a computer virus is a code fragment which is implanted in a program to alter that program's function. For example assume the existence of some active virus program. The virus first searches for an executable file that is writeable. It then appends a copy of itself to some part of the code section, adds in a jump instruction to the usual entry point of the program, and then modifies that entry point to the virus code. Entry point addresses for programs in many computer systems can...

A two level hierarchical route planner has been developed. The data input to the system is a cross-country mobility map. For a given vehicle type, this map specifies regions which are GO or No-GO. A line-thinning algorithm is used to generate a skeleton of the GO areas. This skeleton is then converted into a graph-theoretic structure. A first-level route planner using elevation-grid data is used to compute the traversal time of each arc of the graph. These traversal times become the weights...
