Application of Wenner Configuration to Estimate Soil Water Content in Pine Plantations on Sandy Land

To estimate the mean value of surface soil water content rapidly,accurately,and nonintrusively,field investigations on soil electrical resistivity(SER)with the Yokogawa 324400 earth resistivity meter and the surface(0-150 cm)soil water content(SWC)with time domain reflectometry(TDR),together with the abiotic factors including soil texture,structure. and salinity concentrations were conducted in the Mongolian pine(Pinus sylvestris var.mongolica)plantations on a sandy land.The measurement of SER was based on the 4-probe Wenner configuration method.Relationships between the values of SWC and SER were obtained based on analysis of the abiotic factors of the research site,which play a key role in affecting the soil electrical resistivity.Results indicate that the SER meter could be used to estimate the mean value of SWC in the Mongolian pine plantations on the sandy land during the growing seasons.The bulky nature of the equipment simplified the cumbersome measurements of soil water content with the general methods.It must be noted that the Wenner configuration method could only provide the mean values of the SWC,and the soil texture,structure, temperature,and solute concentrations influenced the SER and further affected the estimation of the SWC by the SER meter.Therefore,the results of this study could be applied on a sandy land during the growing seasons only.However, the SWC of other soil types also may be obtained according to the individual soil types using the procedures of this study.

Accurate ab initio-based analytical potential energy function for S_2(~1△_g) via extrapolation to the complete basis set limit

The potential energy curves（PECs） of the first electronic excited state of S2（a^1△g） are calculated employing a multi-reference configuration interaction method with the Davidson correction in combination with a series of correlationconsistent basis sets from Dunning： aug-cc-p VX Z（X = T, Q, 5, 6）. In order to obtain PECs with high accuracy, PECs calculated with aug-cc-p V（Q, 5）Z basis sets are extrapolated to the complete basis set limit. The resulting PECs are then fitted to the analytical potential energy function（APEF） using the extended Hartree–Fock approximate correlation energy method. By utilizing the fitted APEF, accurate and reliable spectroscopic parameters are obtained, which are consistent with both experimental and theoretical results. By solving the Schr o¨dinger equation numerically with the APEFs obtained at the AV6 Z and the extrapolated AV（Q, 5）Z level of theory, we calculate the complete set of vibrational levels, classical turning points, inertial rotation and centrifugal distortion constants.

Globally accurate ab initio based potential energy surface of H_2O^+(X^4A'')

A globally accurate potential energy surface is reported for the electronic ground-state H2O＋. The ab initio energies utilized to map the potential energy surface are calculated at the multireference configuration interaction method employing the aug-cc-pVQZ basis set and the full valence complete active space wave function as reference. In order to improve accu- racy of the resulting raw ab initio energies, they are then extrapolated to the complete basis set limit and most importantly to the full configuration-interaction limit by semiempirically correcting the dynamical correlation using the double many- body expansion-scaled external correlation method. The topographical features of the current potential energy surface were examined in detail, which agree nicely with those of other theoretical work.

Shape effects on the ground-state energy of a three-electron quantum dot

In this work we will theoretically study the ground-state electronic structure of three-electron polygonal quantum dots by means of the configuration interaction method. Transition from a weakly correlated regime to a strongly correlated regime is investigated for quantum dots with hexagonal, square, and triangular geometries. Our numerical results reveal that the ground-state spin and the charge density distribution of the system are sensitive to the shape of the quantum dot.

Potential energy curves and spectroscopic properties of X^2Σ^+ and A^2Π states of ^(13)C^(14)N

The potential energy curves （PECs） of X2∑ and A2П states of the CN molecule have been calculated with the multi- reference configuration interaction method and the aug-cc-pwCVSZ basis set. Based on the PECs, all of the vibrational and rotational levels of the 13C14N molecule are obtained by solving the Schrrdinger equation of the molecular nuclear motion. The spectroscopic parameters are determined by fitting the Dunham coefficients with the levels. Both the levels and the spectroscopic parameters are in good qualitative agreement with the experimental data available. The analytical potential energy functions are also deduced from the calculated PECs. The present results can provide a helpful reference for future spectroscopy experiments or dynamical calculations of the molecule.

An ab initio investigation of the low-lying electronic states of BeH

Potential energy curves （PECs） for the ground state （X2∑＋） and the four excited electronic states （A2∏, B2∏, C2∑＋, 4∏） of a Bell molecule are calculated using the multi-configuration reference single and double excited configuration interaction （MRCI） approach in combination with the aug-cc-pVTZ basis sets. The calculation covers the internuclear distance ranging from 0.07 nm to 0.70 nm, and the equilibrium bond length Re and the vertical excited energy Te are determined directly. It is evident that the X2∑＋, A2∏, B2∏, C2∑＋ states are bound and 4∏ is a repulsive excited state. With the potentials, all of the vibrational levels and inertial rotation constants are predicted when the rotational quantum number J is set to be equal to zero （J = 0） by numerically solving the radial SchrSdinger equation of nuclear motion. Then the spectroscopic data are obtained including the rotation coupling constant w e, the anharmonic constant WeXe, the equilibrium rotation constant Be, and the vibration-rotation coupling constant ae. These values are compared with the theoretical and experimental results currently available, showing that they are in agreement with each other.

An optimization method for metamorphic mechanisms based on multidisciplinary design optimization

The optimization of metamorphic mechanisms is different from that of the conventional mechanisms for its characteristics of multi-configuration. There exist complex coupled design variables and constraints in its multiple different configuration optimization models. To achieve the compatible optimized results of these coupled design variables, an optimization method for metamorphic mechanisms is developed in the paper based on the principle of multidisciplinary design optimization（MDO）. Firstly, the optimization characteristics of the metamorphic mechanism are summarized distinctly by proposing the classification of design variables and constraints as well as coupling interactions among its different configuration optimization models. Further, collaborative optimization technique which is used in MDO is adopted for achieving the overall optimization performance. The whole optimization process is then proposed by constructing a two-level hierarchical scheme with global optimizer and configuration optimizer loops. The method is demonstrated by optimizing a planar five-bar metamorphic mechanism which has two configurations,and results show that it can achieve coordinated optimization results for the same parameters in different configuration optimization models.
