Hence, identifying its magnitude is vital for studies of eco-hydrological processes and hydrological impact evaluation. In this study, throughfall, stemflow and interception were measured in a pure Larix principis-rupprechtii Mayr.（larch） plantation in the Liupan Mountains of northwestern China during the growing season（May–October） of 2015, and simulated using a revised Gash model. During the study period, the total precipitation was 499.0 mm; corresponding total throughfall, stemflow and canopy interception were 410.3, 2.0 and 86.7 mm,accounting for 82.2, 0.4 and 17.4% of the total precipitation, respectively. With increasing rainfall, the canopy interception ratio of individual rainfall events decreased initially and then tended to stabilize. Within the study period, the simulated total canopy interception, throughfall and stemflow were 2.2 mm lower, 2.5 mm higher and 0.3 mm lower than their measured values, with a relative error of 2.5, 0.6 and 15.0%, respectively. As quantified by the model, canopy interception loss（79%） mainly consisted of interception caused by canopy adsorption, while the proportions of additional interception and trunk interception were small. The revised Gash model was highly sensitive to the parameter of canopy storage capacity,followed by the parameters of canopy density and mean rainfall intensity, but less sensitive to the parameters of mean evaporation rate, trunk storage capacity, and stemflow ratio. The revised Gash model satisfactorily simulated the total canopy interception of the larch plantation within the growing season but was less accurate for some individual rainfall events, indicating that some flaws exist in the model structure. Further measures to improve the model’s ability in simulating the interception of individual rainfall events were suggested.展开更多

After shaved by shaving cutter of true involute profile, there are the "mid-concave" phenomena around the pitch points of the work gear tooth flanks inevitably. This problem severely affects the shaving accuracy and gear transmission quality, which hasn’t been resolved thoroughly for a long time. Aiming at the problem, based on shaving mechanism and the analysis on gear tooth profile mid-concave, a new-style shaving cutter with unequal depth gashes is designed and manufactured. As compared with common shaving cutter, its depth of gashes is zero on the pitch points of tooth profiles and gradually gets deeper to max. from pitch points to the tops of teeth or the roots. Because of no depth on the pitch points, there are no cutting edges, that is, no cutting action, so the work gear isn’t cutted around its pitch points and is only pressed during shaving operation. Therefore, the gear tooth errors are decreased greatly. And the experimentations have proved the shaved gear has better surface finish that achieves the expectant effect. In addition, this paper analyses the forming of gash on the basis of slotting principle, and proposes a design method of gash: gash bottom is formed by two involutes which intersect on the pitch point and are concentric with the base circle of involute profile of cutter. Furthermore, the equations of the two involutes are deduced and the solution is introduced. This paper analyses the forming of gash on the basis of slotting principle, and proposes a gash-designing method. And the experiment has proved that the shaved gear has better surface finish that achieves the anticipated effect.展开更多
