Abstract Many studies have reported that the Arctic is greening; however, we lack an understanding of detailed patterns and processes are leading to this observed greening. The normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) used quantify greening, which has had largely positive trends over last few decades using low spatial resolution satellite imagery such as AVHRR or MODIS pan-Arctic region. However, substantial fine scale heterogeneity in makes large-scale investigation hard interpret...
This paper considers a composite cylindrical structure, with low-enriched uranium (LEU) foil enclosed between two aluminum 6061-T6 cylinders. A recess is cut all around the outer circumference of inner tube to accommodate LEU open-cross section. To obtain perfect contact at interfaces and tubes, an internal pressure applied tube, thereby plastically elastically deforming it. The residual stresses resulting from assembly process are used along thermal stress model predict margins in cladding...
