The root mean square error RMSE and determination coefficient R<sup>2</sup> values showed that Fuzzy-Γ<sub>1</sub>, Fuzzy-Γ<sub>2</sub>, Fuzzy-Γ<sub>3</sub>, Fuzzy-Γ<sub>4</sub> had good fitting performance, among which Fuzzy-Γ<sub>1</sub> had relatively high fitting precision, and its parameters were closely related to stand age and density, Fuzzy-Γ<sub>2</sub> distribution function was the second, and Fuzzy-Γ<sub>4</sub> distribution function had the worst fitting effect. By introducing a parameter c from the similarity of four distribution function formulas, a generalized Fuzzy distribution function Fuzzy-Γ<sub>5</sub> is obtained. This function shows the highest fitting accuracy. Most of the values of parameter c are near 1 or 2, which shows that the diameter distribution is mainly approximate to Fuzzy-Γ<sub>1</sub> and Fuzzy-Γ<sub>2</sub>.展开更多

The standing time during the pretreatment of primary sample has a great influence on the concentration of nitrite tested by spectrophotometric method. In this context, three kinds of food samples are prepared, including canned mustard, canned fish and home-made pickled water. A series of standing times are placed during the sample pretreatments and the corresponding nitrite contents in these samples are detected by spectrophotometric method based on N-ethylenediamine dihydrochloride. This study aims to find out a reasonable standing time during the pretreatment of food sample, providing influence factor for precise detection of nitrite.展开更多

文摘The streamer that is driven by the specific pulse DC discharge parameters can stably form a three-dimensional helical plasma channel in a long dielectric tube in the low-temperature plasma experiment,in cases when there were neither external background magnetic field or other factors that destroyed the poloidal symmetry of the tube.The formation mechanism and chirality of helical streamers are discussed according to the surface electromagnetic standing wave theory.The shape of the helical streamers and the characteristics of helical branches are quantitatively analyzed to further expand the application of plasma and streamer theory in the helix problem and chiral catalytic synthesis.
