Compared to an unfertilized control(CK), all fertilization treatments, including inorganic nitrogen fertilizer only(N), balanced inorganic fertilizers(NPK), NPK plus corn straw(SNPK), and NPK plus farmyard manure(MNPK), resulted in significant increases in corn yield. However, only organic matter amendments sustained increasing yield trends, with annual rates of 0.137 and 0.194 t ha-1for the SPNK and MNPK treatments, respectively(P < 0.05). During the 22 years, the daily mean, maximum and minimum temperatures increased by 0.50, 0.53, and 0.46 °C per decade, whereas precipitation displayed no significant change but showed large seasonal variation. According to a regression analysis, increased air temperature exerted positive effects on corn yields under the SNPK and the MNPK treatments. Under both treatments,soil organic carbon contents and soil nutrient availabilities increased significantly compared to their initial levels in 1990, whereas soil bulk density and total porosity changed slightly under the two treatments, which showed higher soil water storage than other treatments. In contrast, significant increases in soil bulk density and decreases in soil total porosity and soil nutrient availability were observed under the CK, N and NPK treatments. The contributions of soil fertility to corn yield were 28.4%, 37.9%, 38.4%, 39.0%,and 42.9% under CK, N, NPK, SNPK, and MNPK treatments, respectively, whereas climate changes accounted for 27.0%, 14.6%, 12.4%, 11.8%, and 10.8%. These results indicate that, in Northeast China, organic matter amendments can mitigate negative and exploit positive effects of climate change on crop production by enhancing soil quality.展开更多

Methods: Between July 2010 and July 2011, a total of 62 patients with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer who received initial treatment in our hospital and 309 hospital of PLA. 31 patients were randomly assigned to the EL Group: Lobaplatin was given intravenously at a dose of 30 mg/m2 on day 1 and Etoposide 100 mg/m2 on days 1 to 3 of 21-day cycles for a maximum of six cycles. Another 31 patients were assigned to the EP Group: Cisplatin was given intravenously at a dose of 75 mg/m2 on day 1 and Etoposide 100 mg/m2 on days 1 to 3 of 21-day cycles for a maximum of six cycles. We evaluated the efficacy, overall response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), the progression-free survival (PFS) and toxicity between the patients of the two groups. Results: All 62 patients were eligible. In the EL group, 2 (6.5%) patients had complete response, 20 (64.5%) patients had partial response, 5 (16.1%) patients had stable disease and 4 (12.9%) patients had progress disease. In the EP group, 2 (6.5%) patients had complete response, 22 (70.9%) patients had partial response, 4 (12.9%) patients had stable disease and 3 (9.7%) patients had progress disease. The ORR of EL and EP group were 70.9% and 77.4%, respectively, showing no significant difference (P = 0.562). The DCR of both groups were 87% and 90%, respectively, showing no significant difference (P = 0.688). Median PFS of patients with EL and EP regimens were 5.5 months and 5 months, respectively, showing no significant difference (P = 0.637). Adverse events were observed in all 62 patients. Grade 1 to 4 anemia was higher in the EP group than in EL group, showing significant difference (P = 0.02). Grade 3 and 4 thrombocytopenia was seen in 4 patients (12.9%) in EL group and 1 patient (3.2%) in EP group. Although one patient had platelet transfusion owing to Grade 4 thrombocytopenia in EL group, no significant difference (P = 0.637) were shown. The incidence of nausea/vomiting was higher in the EP group than in the EL group (96.7% vs 51.6%, P = 0.00). Conclusien: The EL regimen is an effective and low-toxicity chemotherapy and no inferior to EP regimen in treatment response, therefore, EL regimen maybe is a good choice for patients with extensive-stage SCLC.展开更多

Recently, transport measurements about twisted monolayer–bilayer graphene(t MBG) have shown the existence of correlated states and topological states in this system. However, the direct observations of the band structures and the corresponding spatial distributions are still not sufficient. Here we show that the distributions of flat bands in t MBG host two different modes by scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy(STM/S). By tuning our t MBG device from the empty filling state to the full filling state through the back gate, we observe that the distributions of two flat bands develop from localized mode to delocalized mode. This gate-controlled flat band wavefunction polarization is unique to the t MBG system. Our work suggests that t MBG is promising to simulate both twisted bilayer graphene(TBG) and twisted double bilayer graphene(t DBG) and would be an ideal platform to explore novel moiré physics.展开更多

In this context, a novel real-time price-based demand response formulation is integrated into the allocation model of DG. The tariff is regulated by the difference between the load and active power of renewable energy. Meanwhile, network reconfiguration and the capacity curve describing the active and reactive power limits of DG are included in the optimization model for promoting the allocation of DG.With these measures, the optimal allocation model of DG is established with the goal of maximizing the net annual profit while guaranteeing the efficient utilization of renewable energy. In addition, the uncertainties of renewable energy are considered on the basis of a two-stage robust optimization method. Finally, the entire optimization model is solved by the column and constraint generation algorithm in the IEEE 33-bus distribution system and a practical 99-bus distribution system. Numerical simulations show that the proposed model is effective in terms of improving both the usage of renewable energy and net annual profit.展开更多

This may lead to undesired consequences, including PVG curtailment, load shedding, and equipment inefficiency, etc. Global dynamic reconfiguration provides a promising method to solve those challenges. However, the power flow transfer capabilities for different kinds of switches are diverse, and the willingness of distribution system operators(DSOs) to select them is also different. In this paper, we formulate a multi-objective dynamic reconfiguration optimization model suitable for multi-level switching modes to minimize the operation cost, load imbalance, and the PVG curtailment. The multi-level switching includes feeder-level switching, transformer-level switching, and substation-level switching. A novel load balancing index is devised to quantify the global load balancing degree at different levels. Then, a stochastic programming model based on selected scenarios is established to address the uncertainties of PVGs and loads. Afterward, the fuzzy c-means(FCMs) clustering is applied to divide the time periods of reconfiguration. Furthermore, the modified binary particle swarm optimization(BPSO)and Cplex solver are combined to solve the proposed mixed-integer second-order cone programming(MISOCP) model. Numerical results based on the 148-node and 297-node systems are obtained to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

文摘Twisted graphene systems with flat bands have attracted much attention for they are excellent platforms to research novel quantum phases. Recently, transport measurements about twisted monolayer–bilayer graphene(t MBG) have shown the existence of correlated states and topological states in this system. However, the direct observations of the band structures and the corresponding spatial distributions are still not sufficient. Here we show that the distributions of flat bands in t MBG host two different modes by scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy(STM/S). By tuning our t MBG device from the empty filling state to the full filling state through the back gate, we observe that the distributions of two flat bands develop from localized mode to delocalized mode. This gate-controlled flat band wavefunction polarization is unique to the t MBG system. Our work suggests that t MBG is promising to simulate both twisted bilayer graphene(TBG) and twisted double bilayer graphene(t DBG) and would be an ideal platform to explore novel moiré physics.

文摘In the competitive energy market,energy retailers are facing the uncertainties of both energy price and demand,which requires them to formulate reasonable energy purchasing and selling strategies for improving their competitiveness in this market.Particularly,the attractive multi-energy retail packages are the key for retailers to increase their benefit.Therefore,combined with incentive means and price signals,five types of multi-energy retail packages such as peak-valley time-of-use(TOU)price package and day-night bundled price package are designed in this paper for retailers.The iterative interactions between retailers and end-users are modeled using a bi-level model of stochastic optimization based on multi-leader multi-follower(MLMF)Stackelberg game,in which retailers are leaders and end-users are followers.Retailers make decisions to maximize the profit considering the conditional value at risk(CVaR)while end-users optimize the satisfaction of both energy comfort and economy.Besides,a distributed algorithm is proposed to obtain the Nash equilibrium of above MLMF Stackelberg game model while the particle swarm optimization(PSO)algorithm and CPLEX solver are applied to solve the optimization model for each participant(retailer or end-user).Numeral results show that the designed retail packages can increase the overall profit of retailers,and the overall satisfaction of industrial users is the highest while that of residential users is the lowest after game interaction.

文摘The increasing integration of intermittent renewable energy sources(RESs)poses great challenges to active distribution networks(ADNs),such as frequent voltage fluctuations.This paper proposes a novel ADN strategy based on multiagent deep reinforcement learning(MADRL),which harnesses the regulating function of switch state transitions for the realtime voltage regulation and loss minimization.After deploying the calculated optimal switch topologies,the distribution network operator will dynamically adjust the distributed energy resources(DERs)to enhance the operation performance of ADNs based on the policies trained by the MADRL algorithm.Owing to the model-free characteristics and the generalization of deep reinforcement learning,the proposed strategy can still achieve optimization objectives even when applied to similar but unseen environments.Additionally,integrating parameter sharing(PS)and prioritized experience replay(PER)mechanisms substantially improves the strategic performance and scalability.This framework has been tested on modified IEEE 33-bus,IEEE 118-bus,and three-phase unbalanced 123-bus systems.The results demonstrate the significant real-time regulation capabilities of the proposed strategy.

文摘Aiming at multi-agent coordinated scheduling problems in power systems under uncertainty,a generic projection and decomposition(P&D)approach is proposed in this letter.The canonical min-max-min two-stage robust optimization(TSRO)model with coupling constraints is equivalent to a concise robust optimization(RO)model in the version of mixed-integer linear programming(MILP)via feasible region projection.The decentralized decoupling of the non-convex MILP problem is realized through a dual decomposition algorithm,which ensures the fast convergence to a high-quality solution in the distributed optimization.Numerical tests verify the superior performance of the proposed P&D approach over the existing distributed TSRO method.

文摘Monolayer and bilayer graphene sheets have been produced by a solvothermal-assisted exfoliation process in a highly polar organic solvent,acetonitrile,using expanded graphite(EG)as the starting material.It is proposed that the dipole-induced dipole interactions between graphene and acetonitrile facilitate the exfoliation and dispersion of graphene.The facile and effective solvothermal-assisted exfoliation process raises the low yield of graphene reported in previous syntheses to 10 wt%12 wt%.By means of centrifugation at 2000 rpm for 90 min,monolayer and bilayer graphene were separated effectively without the need to add a stabilizer or modifi er.Electron diffraction and Raman spectroscopy indicate that the resulting graphene sheets are high quality products without any signifi cant structural defects.

文摘Demand response, the reactive power output of distributed generation(DG), and network reconfiguration have significant impacts on a DG allocation strategy. In this context, a novel real-time price-based demand response formulation is integrated into the allocation model of DG. The tariff is regulated by the difference between the load and active power of renewable energy. Meanwhile, network reconfiguration and the capacity curve describing the active and reactive power limits of DG are included in the optimization model for promoting the allocation of DG.With these measures, the optimal allocation model of DG is established with the goal of maximizing the net annual profit while guaranteeing the efficient utilization of renewable energy. In addition, the uncertainties of renewable energy are considered on the basis of a two-stage robust optimization method. Finally, the entire optimization model is solved by the column and constraint generation algorithm in the IEEE 33-bus distribution system and a practical 99-bus distribution system. Numerical simulations show that the proposed model is effective in terms of improving both the usage of renewable energy and net annual profit.

文摘The increasing integration of photovoltaic generators(PVGs) and the uneven economic development in different regions may cause the unbalanced spatial-temporal distribution of load demands in an urban distribution network(UDN). This may lead to undesired consequences, including PVG curtailment, load shedding, and equipment inefficiency, etc. Global dynamic reconfiguration provides a promising method to solve those challenges. However, the power flow transfer capabilities for different kinds of switches are diverse, and the willingness of distribution system operators(DSOs) to select them is also different. In this paper, we formulate a multi-objective dynamic reconfiguration optimization model suitable for multi-level switching modes to minimize the operation cost, load imbalance, and the PVG curtailment. The multi-level switching includes feeder-level switching, transformer-level switching, and substation-level switching. A novel load balancing index is devised to quantify the global load balancing degree at different levels. Then, a stochastic programming model based on selected scenarios is established to address the uncertainties of PVGs and loads. Afterward, the fuzzy c-means(FCMs) clustering is applied to divide the time periods of reconfiguration. Furthermore, the modified binary particle swarm optimization(BPSO)and Cplex solver are combined to solve the proposed mixed-integer second-order cone programming(MISOCP) model. Numerical results based on the 148-node and 297-node systems are obtained to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

文摘It is expected that multiple virtual power plants(multi-VPPs)will join and participate in the future local energy market(LEM).The trading behaviors of these VPPs needs to be carefully studied in order to maximize the benefits brought to the local energy market operator(LEMO)and each VPP.We propose a bounded rationality-based trading model of multiVPPs in the local energy market by using a dynamic game approach with different trading targets.Three types of power bidding models for VPPs are first set up with different trading targets.In the dynamic game process,VPPs can also improve the degree of rationality and then find the most suitable target for different requirements by evolutionary learning after considering the opponents’bidding strategies and its own clustered resources.LEMO would decide the electricity buying/selling price in the LEM.Furthermore,the proposed dynamic game model is solved by a hybrid method consisting of an improved particle swarm optimization(IPSO)algorithm and conventional largescale optimization.Finally,case studies are conducted to show the performance of the proposed model and solution approach,which may provide some insights for VPPs to participate in the LEM in real-world complex scenarios.

文摘Power sharing can improve the benefit of the multi-microgrid(MMG)system.However,the information disclosure may appear during the sharing process,which would bring privacy risk to a local microgrid.Actually,the risk and coordination cost are different in different sharing modes.Therefore,this paper develops a decision-making method to decide the most suitable one of three mostly used sharing modes(i.e.,cooperative game with complete information,cooperative game with incomplete information,and noncooperative game).Firstly,power sharing paradigms and coordination mechanisms in the three modes are formulated in detail.Particularly,different economic operation models of MMG system are included to analyze the economic benefit from different sharing modes.Based on the different disclosed information,the risk cost is evaluated by using the simplified fuzzy analytic hierarchy process(FAHP).And the coordination cost for different sharing modes is expressed in different functions.In addition,a hierarchical evaluation system including three decision-making factors(e.g.,economics,risk,and coordination)is set up.Meanwhile,a combination weighting method(e.g.,the simplified FAHP combined with the anti-entropy weight method)is applied to obtain the weight of each factor for comprehensive evaluation.Finally,the optimal sharing solution of MMG system is decided by comparing and analyzing the difference among the three sharing modes.Numerical results validate that the proposed method can provide a reference to deciding a suitable sharing mode.

文摘A multi-energy conversion can effectively increase the utilization of renewable energy in the urban integrated energy system(UIES).Meanwhile,the uncertainties of renewable energy resources(e.g.,wind energy)also bring increased challenges to the operation of UIES.In this study,a typical two-stage datadriven distributionally robust operation(DDRO)model based on finite scenarios is proposed for UIES including power,gas and heat networks to obtain a salient strategy from both an economic and robustness perspective.In the first stage,the forecasted information for wind power is especially included to improve the economic aspect of robust decisions.The worst probability distribution for the selected known real-time wind power scenarios can be identified in the second stage where the power differences caused by the real-time uncertainties of wind power can be mitigated by flexible regulation of energy purchasing and coupling units(such as gas turbine,power to gas equipment,electric boiler and gas boiler).Moreover,norm-1 and norm-inf co-constraints are utilized to construct a confidence set for the probability distributions of uncertain wind power.The whole two-stage model is solved by the column-and-constraint generation(CCG)algorithm.Finally,case studies are conducted to show the performance of the proposed model and various approaches.Index Terms-Data-driven methods,distributionally robust optimization,urban integrated energy system,wind power.
