Compared to normal cropping, there are many unfavorable changes in some major elements of soybean plant and soil environment. Chloropyll content was lower. Phosphorous content of soybean plant was decreased seriously. Potassium content was lower while calcium content was higher. Magnesium content was wot affected and decreased in susceptive varieties. Some deseases and insects of soybean under continuous and wery second year cropping conditions became serious as continuous years prolonged. Organic matter content tended to go down from normal rotation to continuous cropping. Amount of bacteria and antinomyces decreased while amount of fungi increased. The development of symbiotic nitrogen fixation system wsa deteriorated.展开更多

This study derives consequences of the invertibility condition on the parameters of a moving average process of order three. The study also establishes the intervals for the first three autocorrelation coefficients of the moving average process of order three for the purpose of distinguishing between the process and any other process (linear or nonlinear) with similar autocorrelation structure. For an invertible moving average process of order three, the intervals obtained are , -0.5ρ2ρ1<0.5.展开更多

We analyse the use of the Sine Transform precondilioners for the solution of linear systems arising from the discretization of p.d.e. via the preconditioned conjugate gradient method. For the second-order partial differential equations with Dirichlel boundary conditions, we prove that the condition number of the preconditioned system is O(1) while the condition number of the original system is O(m 2) Here m is the number of interior gridpoints in each direction. Such condition number produces a linear convergence rale.展开更多

However,there are still some problemsworthy to be further discussed. It includes that the second order radiation condition isnot very clear and the inhomogeneous term of second order free surface boundarycondition makes the calculation of second order wave force either not easier to beperformed accurately due to its slowly decaying with radial distance or toocomplicated for practical application. In this paper, the second order radiationcondition is posed of the circumferential Fourier components of second orderpotential, instead of the second order potential. It is found that the circumferenatialFourier cormponents of second order potential have to satisfy Sommerfeld radiationcondition. By means of the mathematical formulae derived in this paper, theinhomogeneous term of second order free surface boundary condition were simplifiedand then an exact expression of second order wave force was obtained, which issimpler in form and easier to be used in practical calculation. The calculation resultsagree well with some experimental data.展开更多
