[Method] Fresh burley tobacco leaves were collected at various growing stages and dried to measure the content of total nitrogen, protein and nico- tine by using INTEGRAL automated chemical analyzer and analyze the correlation with nitrogen application level. [Result] Regardless of the nitrogen application level, the content of total nitrogen and protein showed a downward trend since root ex- tending stage and reached the minimum at mature stage; the content of nicotine showed an upward trend since early vigorous growing stage and increased to the maximum at mature stage; the content of total nitrogen, protein and nicotine all in- creased after air curing; the content of total nitrogen, protein and nicotine showed positive correlation with nitrogen application level, while total nitrogen/nicotine was negatively correlated. The results indicate that nitrogen level is closely related to the total nitrogen and nicotine of burley tobacco at growing period and post-air curing, rational application of nitrogen is an important measure to regulate the content of total nitrogen and nicotine of tobacco. [Conclusion] This study provides scientific ba- sis for rational fertilization of burley tobacco.展开更多

The results show that there was a strong westerly jet belt with a wind speed greater than 30 m s 1 and a thickness of 5 km at an altitude of 11-16 km. The jet belt was accelerated, and it descended while the squall line convective system occurred. It was found that the appearance of strong negative perturbation pressure accompanied by the squall line caused the acceleration of the upper-level westerly jet and increased the horizontal wind speed by a maximum of 18%. Meanwhile, the negative buoyancy due to the loading, melting, and evaporation of cloud hydrometeors induced the downward momentum transport from the upper levels. The downward momentum transport contributed approximately 70% and the surface cold pool 30% to the formation of severe surface winds.展开更多

Here, we study a consequence of this proposal in relativistic quantum mechanics by solving in the momentumspace representation the Klein-Gordon oscillator in arbitrary dimensions. The exact bound states spectrum and thecorresponding momentum space wave function are obtained. Following Chang et al. (Phys. Rev. D 65 (2002) 125027),we discuss constraint that can be placed on the minimal length by measuring the energy levels of an electron in a penningtrap.展开更多

This issue is analyzed through theoretical deduction and practical example in this paper. Firstly,the difference between the results of Euler vectors in different solving models is deduced. Meanwhile, based on GNSS horizontal movement field in the Chinese mainland from 2004 to 2007,two common models( RRM and REHSM) are used to discuss the impact of solving models on Euler vectors and the follow-up study. The result shows that the maximum value of the difference in a block's entire rotation can reach 2. 6mm /a,and should not be ignored. Therefore,the results of horizontal movement are different using different kinematic block models,and this should be paid more attention in the analysis of crustal horizontal movement.展开更多

The level of liquid nitrogen should be monitored and controlled to ensure the thermal stability and the dielectric strength as well. To measure the level, capacitance method and differential pressure method are usually used. However, each method has installation difficulties and measurement errors for unsteady state operation with varying system pressure. A new liquid level meter using a 2G HTS conductor is described, which has similar structure with the liquid helium level meter with NbTi filament. The level meter is fabricated with a parallel connected heater, which helps the separation of the superconducting region and normal region, considering the critical temperature, large heat capacity of conductor and cooling characteristics. The level of liquid nitrogen can be obtained from the measured voltage signal along the 2G HTS conductor. Design, fabrication and test results of the new liquid nitrogen level meter are presented.展开更多

The hardware and software of this apparatus were designed,and detecting algorithms based on conservation of energy method (COEM) were presented. According to the law of conservation of energy that the energy derived by human body equals energy consumed by metabolism,and the relationship between convection,evaporation,radiation and the BGL was established. The sensor module was designed. 20 healthy volunteers were involved in the clinical experiment. The BGL measured by an automatic biochemical analyzer (ABA) was set as the reference. Regression analysis was performed to compare the conservation of energy method with the biochemical method,using the 20 data points with blood glucose concentrations ranging from 680 to 1 100 mg/L. Reproducibility was measured for healthy fasting volunteers. The results show that the means of BGL detected by NBGMA and ANA are very close to each other,and the difference of standard deviation (SD) is 24.7 mg/L. The correlative coefficient is 0.807. The coefficient of variation (CV) is 4% at 921.6 mg/L. The resultant regression is evaluated by the Clarke error grid analysis (EGA) and all data points are included in the clinically acceptable regions (region A:100%,region B:0%). Accordingly,it is feasible to measure BGL with COEM.展开更多

Carriers transport via dopant molecules in the emitting layer with a single host, however, via both dopant and host molecules when their energy levels are well aligned. Conditions for reduced driving-voltage and enhanced efficiency of red PHOLED are obtained by employing a mixed host structure. A pure red PHOLED with color coordinates of (0.67, 0.33) has been realized by using only 4 wt% dopant, The device achieves 100 cd/cm2 at 2.9 V, with correspond- ing power efficiency of 9.3im/W and external quantum efficiency of 14.3%.展开更多

W...Using eight years of time-variant gravity measurements from the GRACE gravity satellite mission, we estimate monthly terrestrial water storage variations in the North China Plain between August 2002 and August 2010. We find that during this period, the water storage is not constant but accelerate at a rate of -1.1 cm/yr over time. The study confirms that the relatively long-term trend of water storage in the North China Plain (by 13-point moving average) is consistent well with that by linear fitting. Two hydrological models, CPC and GLDAS, are adopted in calculating surface water variations, with results indicating that they agree with those of GRACE. Furthermore, rates of -0.6 cm/yr for surface water variations and -0.5 cm/yr for groundwater variations are found in the North China Plain during the study period. Decrease of rainfall and the groundwater over-exploitation are possibly the main causes for groundwater depletion in the North China Plain. The results will be helpful for better understanding climatic changes and provide reference for the management of water resources and the establishment of policies on preventing and alleviating natural hazards.展开更多

Thus, both trends in the crustal movement of the mainland and local distortions should be simultaneously taken into consideration in crustal movement estimations. A combined collocation model based on Euler vector (taken as trend parameters) and local distortions (taken as signals) is proposed in this paper. We assume that prior covariance matrices between signals and observations should be consistent with their uncertainties. Otherwise, the station movement estimates provided by the collocation will be distorted. Thus, an adaptive collocation estimator based on simplified Helmert variance components is applied. This means that the contributions of signals and observations to estimates of crustal movements are balanced and reasonable, and consistent covariance matrices of the signals and observations are achieved through the adjustment of the adaptive factor. The calculation of actual horizontal movements of the Chinese crust shows that the estimates of horizontal crustal movement velocities are made more accurate by the adaptive collocation model.展开更多

The impact process is an ensemble con- sisting of a point impact coupled with a line contact between bodies of the disk, the ball and the fixed horizontal surface. We experimentally and theoretically show that the post-impact states of the disk dramatically vary with the impacting position of the ball. Explanations are given by investigating the evolutions of the potential energies resided in the points involved in the complex frictional impacts. Good agreements between numerical and experimental results strongly suggest that the evolution of energy together with the dissipation must be reflected in mathematical models if a precise description for the post-impact state of systems is expected.展开更多

Incorporating the GER model into the mass balance model for soil water, a GER-based physicoempirical (PE-GER) model was proposed for simulating soil water variation in the crop root zone. The PE-GER model was calibrated and validated with experimental data of winter wheat in North China. Simulation results agreed well with the field experiment results, as well as were consistent with the simulation results from a more thoroughly developed soil water balance model which required more detailed parameters and inputs. Compared with a previously developed simple exponential recession (SER) based physicoempirical (PF^SER) model, PE-GER was more suitable f0r application in a broad range of soil texture, from light soil to heavy soil. Practical application of PE-GER showed that PE-GER could provide a convenient way to simulate and predict the variation of soil water storage in the crop root zone, especially in case of insufficient data for conceptual or hydrodynamic models.展开更多

[Method] Fresh burley tobacco leaves were collected at various growing stages and dried to measure the content of total nitrogen, protein and nico- tine by using INTEGRAL automated chemical analyzer and analyze the correlation with nitrogen application level. [Result] Regardless of the nitrogen application level, the content of total nitrogen and protein showed a downward trend since root ex- tending stage and reached the minimum at mature stage; the content of nicotine showed an upward trend since early vigorous growing stage and increased to the maximum at mature stage; the content of total nitrogen, protein and nicotine all in- creased after air curing; the content of total nitrogen, protein and nicotine showed positive correlation with nitrogen application level, while total nitrogen/nicotine was negatively correlated. The results indicate that nitrogen level is closely related to the total nitrogen and nicotine of burley tobacco at growing period and post-air curing, rational application of nitrogen is an important measure to regulate the content of total nitrogen and nicotine of tobacco.

文摘The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model was used to investigate the role of downward momentum transport in the formation of severe surface winds for a squall line on 3-4 June 2009 across regions of the Henan and Shandong Provinces of China. The results show that there was a strong westerly jet belt with a wind speed greater than 30 m s 1 and a thickness of 5 km at an altitude of 11-16 km. The jet belt was accelerated, and it descended while the squall line convective system occurred. It was found that the appearance of strong negative perturbation pressure accompanied by the squall line caused the acceleration of the upper-level westerly jet and increased the horizontal wind speed by a maximum of 18%. Meanwhile, the negative buoyancy due to the loading, melting, and evaporation of cloud hydrometeors induced the downward momentum transport from the upper levels. The downward momentum transport contributed approximately 70% and the surface cold pool 30% to the formation of severe surface winds.

文摘In this paper, we base a theory established in an impulse-energy level to solve a problem of a disk-bail system, in which a moving ball collides perpendicularly against an disk staying on a horizontal surface. The impact process is an ensemble con- sisting of a point impact coupled with a line contact between bodies of the disk, the ball and the fixed horizontal surface. We experimentally and theoretically show that the post-impact states of the disk dramatically vary with the impacting position of the ball. Explanations are given by investigating the evolutions of the potential energies resided in the points involved in the complex frictional impacts. Good agreements between numerical and experimental results strongly suggest that the evolution of energy together with the dissipation must be reflected in mathematical models if a precise description for the post-impact state of systems is expected.

文摘To predict soil water variation in the crop root zone, a general exponential recession (GER) model was developed to depict the recession process of soil water storage. Incorporating the GER model into the mass balance model for soil water, a GER-based physicoempirical (PE-GER) model was proposed for simulating soil water variation in the crop root zone. The PE-GER model was calibrated and validated with experimental data of winter wheat in North China. Simulation results agreed well with the field experiment results, as well as were consistent with the simulation results from a more thoroughly developed soil water balance model which required more detailed parameters and inputs. Compared with a previously developed simple exponential recession (SER) based physicoempirical (PF^SER) model, PE-GER was more suitable f0r application in a broad range of soil texture, from light soil to heavy soil. Practical application of PE-GER showed that PE-GER could provide a convenient way to simulate and predict the variation of soil water storage in the crop root zone, especially in case of insufficient data for conceptual or hydrodynamic models.
