Abstract:Discrete element method was used to analyze the influence of working parameters on supplying seeds performance of magnetic precision cylinder seeder. Tomato powder coated seed was taken as the object of study, and then the seed and seeder simulation model was established. The mechanical interaction forces, both between seed and seeder and among the seeds were modeled by Hertz-Mindlin method (no slip). The effects of vibration frequency and amplitude on the seeds movement rule and the supplying performance were analyzed. The simulation results showed that when the vibration frequency was 40 Hz and the vibration amplitude was 0.5 mm or 0.75 mm, the seeds accumulated a stable height and the ideal seeds supplying performance could be received, which was beneficial to improve suction precision. In order to verify the reliability of the simulation model, high-speed photography technology was used to record the supplying process with the seed box vibration frequency of 40 Hz and vibration amplitude of 0.75 mm, and the supplying results were consistent with the simulation results. Experiments were carried out on magnetic precision cylinder-seeder and the results showed that the single grain rate was greater than 92% and leak seeding rate was less than 3% with the seed box vibration frequency of 40 Hz, vibration amplitude of 0.5 mm and 0.75 mm. The single grain rate was lower than 80% with vibration frequency of 20 Hz and 60 Hz, with different amplitudes.

Abstract:The temporal and spatial variability of spring wheat leaf area index (LAI) and coverage was investigated, which was essential for the spatial analysis of crop parameters and the exact way to resolve the matching problems between remote sensing data and ground observation data. The results showed that, with the growing of spring wheat, the CV of coverage decreased, while the CV of LAI increased first and then decreased. At the coverage-tillering stage, both wheat LAI and coverage had the maximum spatial correlation distance and the minimum spatial variation. But at later growth stages, the spatial correlation distance was relatively stable for LAI and coverage. At some sample points, spring wheat LAI and coverage had a higher temporal stability than others, especially after the tillering-shooting stage. Compared with the coverage, the temporal stability of LAI was more significant. The sampling sites with higher time stability could be used to estimate the mean value of large region. Spring wheat LAI model was built with parameters of coverage and growth period, which could reflect the spatial and temporal variability.

Abstract:The relationship between response of grain impact sensitive plate in grain loss monitoring sensor and damping ratio was theoretically analyzed, and the importance of damping design in sensitive plate was pointed out. A method to increase the damping ratio of the system was proposed, which could quickly attenuate harmonic vibration of sensitive plate by laying a constrained damping layer on sensitive plate. Through grain collision response test on sensitive plate with different damping loss factor, optimal material and structure of the sensitive plate were determined, and the modal analysis of the sensitive plate was carried out though ANSYS software to find out the best location of constrained damping layer on sensitive plate. Grain collision response test results showed that, the time of grain collision signal waveform decayed to 1.5 V was shorten from 10 ms to about 3 ms before and after partial constrained damping treatment, which proved that the detecting frequency of grain loss monitoring sensor was greatly improved.

Abstract:This paper presents an approach to design non-fragile H∞/L2-L∞ static output feedback control applied in design of vehicle active suspension, by considering input time-delay of the system and parameter perturbation of the controller. According to suspension design requirements, the H∞ and L2-L∞ norms are used respectively to reflect ride comfort and time-domain hard constraints. By employing a delay-dependent Lyapunov function, existence conditions of delay-dependent non-fragile static output feedback H∞ controller and L2-L∞ controller are derived respectively in terms of the feasibility of bilinear matrix inequalities (BMIs). Then, a new procedure based on linear matrix inequality (LMI) optimization and a hybrid algorithm of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) and differential evolution (DE) is used to solve an optimization problem with BMI constraints. Simulation results show that the designed active suspension system can guarantee their own performance.

Abstract:A measurement error was caused by using the kingpin turning angle in place of the wheel turning angle in agricultural vehicle guidance. A relation model between the wheel turning angle and the kingpin turning angle was established to compensate the measurement error. Then, a simulation was carried out, showing that the error between the wheel turning angle and the kingpin turning angle increased with the increase of the kingpin inclination. Next, a test was conducted to verify the correctness of the model, and the results showed that the model improved the accuracy of measurement for the wheel turning angle. The mean error decreased by 0.48°, and the maximum error decreased by 0.71° after model compensation. Finally, in practical application, the proposed model improved the performance of agricultural vehicle guidance system.

Abstract:A master-slave system with hydraulic actuated Stewart mechanism in both master and slave sites is built. The system can be used for curved surface grinding work, where the grinding dust may do great harm to the operator. Aiming at the 6-DOF work condition of the system, a new workspace-based four channel bilateral servo control algorithm is designed. The new algorithm may decrease the nonlinear disturbance such as the difference of the cylinders and environment force, thus improve the accuracy of the feedback force. Based on this result, a multi-DOF strategy switch algorithm is proposed. By using different control strategy under the rigid impact time and soft impact, the vibrate problem on the master side during rigid impact on the slave side is solved. An experiment including soft and rigid collisions is implemented to validate the efficiency of the new algorithm.

Abstract:Based on the motion characters of the running cars, a novel coupling 4-UPS/UPR parallel mechanism is proposed as a car motion simulation platform. Based on the screw theory, the constraints of the middle constraint limb on the upper platform are analyzed. The singular, which is related to the configuration of the hinges, is analyzed using Grassmenn geometry. The kinematic operator function of the rotation matrix is employed to analyze the coupling motion characters of the parallel mechanism. The kinematic model of the mechanism is established using screw velocity and acceleration. The detailed dynamic model, including all the limbs, is gotten by the Newton-Euler Equation on rigid-body. And the corresponding numerical example is given to demonstrate the above theory.

Abstract:Effective detection of peel defects on fruit was always the most important in automatic non-destructive detection of fruit. And, accurate segmentation of peel defects was a premise to effectively grade the fruit based on size of defect. However, since fruit surface usually has a larger curvature change, the non-uniform reflection from fruit surface is probably caused in terms of the same incident light source, and the accurate segmentation of peel defects will be affected. `Pinggu' peaches were applied as the research object, and a watershed segmentation method combining morphological gradient reconstruction with internal and external markers was proposed to segment the defects on fruit peel. First, R channel image was extracted and background was removed by mask template obtained from NIR image. Then, gradient image was obtained by morphological gradient operation, and gradient reconstruction was performed by using the gradient image to remove some small noises on the fruit surface. Next, internal and external marker operations were used to obtain the marker image. Finally, defects on peel were segmented by using the standard watershed algorithm. For the investigated 525 sample images including seven peel types, a 96.8% successful recognition rate was achieved. The experimental results showed that a watershed segmentation algorithm combining morphological gradient reconstruction with marker extraction could be effectively used to segment the peel defects on peach and the performance of algorithm was not affected by non-uniform illumination on peach surface. However, defect segmentation rate needed to be further improved.

Abstract:The aim of this work is to numerically analyze the performance of a integrated power plant, which is composed of a biomass gasifier, a fuel cell and a gas turbine. The biomass gasifier is a steam fluidized bed system based on the UNIQUE concept. The chemical kinetics model is applied for the analysis of gas composition production, and the naphthalene is chosen as the tar composition. Effects of different moisture contents in the biomass and fuel utilization on the system performance are studied. The results show that, the biomass gasification-SOFC/MGT power plant can obtain an efficiency above 47% at the 200 kW with the 20% of biomass steam content, which is higher than other biomass power plant. The increase of steam content in the biomass can decrease the system power and efficiency. The system power changes insignificantly with the increase of fuel utilization, while the system efficiency can increase significantly.

Abstract:Taking robot arm as research objective, this paper analyzes and researches the stiffness model of a machining robot. First, the size of the equivalent stiffness is calculated according to the robot transmission components, which are come down to elastic components and reduced to the corresponding joints. After obtaining the stiffness of each robot joint, the joint deflection performance in robot end is mapped out by using Jacobian matrix. In addition, the robot arm is regarded as a flexible rod, and the deflection deformation models of stretch, torsion and curve are built, respectively. And then the robot kinematics model is established, in which the staging parameters are contained. From calculating the operation end mapping, each arm rod deflection has micro variable. Finally, the joint deflection and arm rod deflection are stacked in the robot operation end, and then the robot general operating space stiffness is solved through stiffness definition.

Abstract:In order to detect the growth status of apple trees based on spectroscopy, an apple orchard was selected as the experimental site located at the outskirts of Beijing. First, the samples of apple tree leaves at each key growth period were collected. Then the spectral reflectance, chlorophyll content and moisture content of the samples were measured respectively. The characteristics of those spectra were analyzed and the correlation between chlorophyll content, moisture content and their spectra were calculated. The results showed that the original spectra were most correlated with leaf chlorophyll content from 511 nm to 590 nm and from 688 nm to 715 nm. The correlation coefficients in September were high and the maximum value was 0.6.From the correlation analysis between apples leaves moisture content and their spectra, it was found that the original spectra were most correlated with leaf moisture content at the wavebands of 420~500 nm, 640~680 nm and 740~860 nm, and the correlation coefficients in fruiting period were high. According to the selected sensitive bands, the models for estimating the chlorophyll content and moisture content in apple leaves were built by multiple linear regression analysis (MLRA), principal component analysis (PCA) and artificial neural network (ANN), respectively. The models were tested by the validation set which included 25 samples of apple tree leaves. The forecasting results indicated that the model based on PCA was the best model to predict the chlorophyll content of apple leaves, and the calibration and validation R2 were 0.8852 and 0.8289, respectively. The forecasting model of apple leaf moisture content based on ANN was the best, and the calibration and validation R2 were 0.862 and 0.8375, respectively.

Abstract:Moisture adsorption isotherm of freeze-dried scallop, with and without maltodextrin addition (mass fraction of 5% of total solids content), was determined at 25 by the gravimetric method. Differential scanning calorimetry was used to determine the glass transition temperature (Tg) and freezing point (TF) of samples equilibrated at various water activities. The state diagram was composed of the glass transition line and freezing curve, which were fitted according to Gordon-Taylor equation and Clausius-Clapeyron equation, respectively. The results showed that the adsorption behavior of scallop displayed J type isotherms. The GAB model satisfactorily described the adsorption behavior of scallop. The equilibrium moisture content in dry basis (EMC) of scallop samples containing maltodextrin (PS-MD) and maltodextrin-free scallop (PS) increased with increasing water activity (aw). EMC of PS-MD at a given aw was lower than that of PS especially at aw higher than 0.62. The monolayer moisture content decreased with maltodextrin addition and the values were observed to be 0.0822 and 0.0716 g/g for PS and PS-MD, respectively. Tg decreased with increasing moisture content. Tg decreased from -4.25 to -60.92 as moisture content of PS increased from 2.81% to 21.96%. Tg decreased from 1.32 to-51.41 as moisture content of PS-MD increased from 2.11% to 19.72%. TF decreased with increasing solid content. The state diagram yielded maximally-freeze-concentrated solutes at 76.7% and 82.0% solids with the characteristic temperature of glass transition being -70.99 and -54.58 for PS and PS-MD, respectively. The corresponding un-freezable water for PS and PS-MD were 23.3% and 18.0%, respectively.

Abstract:The subsoil compaction device of bowl seedling tray cave-hole for rice seedling nursery planter was developed for soft and hard seedling tray. The device control system based on AT89C51 microcontroller used a stepping motor and a transporting-tray limit switch to control seedling tray feeding, and used a restrict limit switch and an align proximity switch to conduct seedling tray alignment and interaction between subsoil in the seedling tray cave-hole and the roller finger. With these steps, subsoil compaction was realized on this device. Through various testing on the compaction device, the optimum working parameters of the compaction device were obtained. The seedling tray alignment test showed that the system realized exact match between the seedling tray cave-hole and roller finger during the subsoil compaction operation at a productivity of 500 trays per hour and an advance angle arc length of 1mm, and the alignment rate of 98%, which met the technical requirements for subsoil compaction of bowl seedling tray cave-hole. The seedling nursery test showed that subsoil compaction of bowl seedling tray cave-hole improved the quality of seedlings and ensured the integrity and tightness of bowl seedling root-soil complex, which was most helpful for planting operations when the depth of subsoil compaction was 6 mm.

Abstract:Traditional NIR systems are stand-alone and difficult to model. In order to share resource of existed NIR model, a NIR analysis system based on cloud computing is proposed. The NIR software analysis system is designed on a high performance server instead of the host of stand-alone version, and the architecture and design procedures of the NIR cloud analysis system are described in detail. The system has the functions of preprocessing of near infrared spectral data, quantitative analysis, qualitative analysis, spectral model search and spectral model transfer. The identification results of waste edible oil between NIR cloud analysis system and stand-alone version are compared. The overall rate of correct identification is 86.21% for the 50 samples of waste edible oil by the NIR cloud analysis system. This result is fully consistent with the analysis results in stand-alone. The experimental results show that the cloud NIR analysis system is low cost, easy modeling, access to flexible, enabling resource sharing and remote access, etc.

Abstract:NiO/HZSM-5 catalysts with different NiO contents were prepared by impregnation method and their property was investigated. The surface performance tests showed taht the catalyst with 8% loading metal (8-ZSM-5) had satisfied surface morphology and structure. The catalytic activity of NiO/HZSM-5 catalyst was evaluated via the experimental study on catalytic bio-oil model in a self made biomass continuous pyrolysis system. The results showed that the reaction activities of the catalysts were greatly influenced by the NiO content and the catalytic temperature. When the reaction temperature was 400 and catalyst loading metal was 8%, the catalyst made the percent conversion of the toluene and guaiacol reach 80% and 85% respectively, which increased 60% and 70% compared with only HZSM-5 catalyst acting. The heat value of upgrading bio-oil model could increase 30% as well. Meanwhile, the addition of NiO decreased the Bronsted acidity by 45%, and improved anti-carbon ability and stability of catalyst, and the lifetime of the catalyst was extented as well. The 8-ZSM-5 catalyst kept the high catalysis activity after 6 h reaction.

Abstract:Removing-soil devices are very important to the peanut combine harvester, and directly affect the work performance of the follow-up peanut stripping devices. According to the poor performance in removing soil of the traditional removing-soil devices used in the peanut combine harvester, a new removing soil device with spring tooth is designed. Based on the analysis of removing-soil principle, this paper analyzes the performance of removing soil and gets the regression equation between eccentric-wheel speed, eccentricity, spring tooth arm and removing soil performance index (removing soil rate and peanuts falling rate). Finally, this paper draws a conclusion that the optimum removing soil performance can be obtained under the condition as following: eccentric wheel speed is 23 r/min, the eccentricity is 38 mm, the length of spring tooth's arm is 125 mm. Every index of the performance meets the demands of design.

Abstract:The disc saw cutter system is one of the key components in caragana korshinskii harvester, and determines the cutting quality of caragana korshinskii. We established a simplified model of the cutter based on the parameters of each part of the disc saw cutter system, and built the cutting object caragana korshinskii model combining with the caragana korshinskii parameters. These parameters were introduced into dynamic analysis software ADAMS, and the cutting object was replaced as flexible body. The rigid-flexible coupling dynamic analysis of caragana korshinskii was conducted while the cutting institution was working. Considering the diameter, thickness and rotational speed of the disc saws as factors, the impact-force of x (direction of operation), y (vertical upward), and z (horizontal to left direction) axes between caragana plant and cutter were selected as the response function to represent the caragana cutting efficiency. A virtual orthogonal test of three factors and three levels was performed on parameters, which were related to the cutting efficiency and power. The response surface regression equation of each indicator was obtained, and the validation and comparative analysis was performed by field experiment. The result showed when the disc saw diameter was 400 mm, thickness was 5 mm and the rotational speed was 1 500 r/min, the cutting power of one cutting component was 12.32 kW, and the cutting efficiency was the best. This study provided the design basis for selecting the parameters of caragana korshinskii combine harvester.

Abstract:Strong aerodynamic force is generated between the wheels and road surface while a vehicle is moving fast on the road. As a result, the road surface is stroked by instantaneous and repeated aerodynamic force. For porous asphalt pavement, the repeated air pressure acted on the pavement would cause changes of water vapour state within, leading to pavement damage. Based on the 3D viscous incompressible Reynolds-averaged Navier-stokes equations and turbulence model k-Ε double equation model, the aerodynamic field between the vehicle and pavement was analyzed with numerical computing methods. The relationships between air pressures around the wheels and vehicle speed were studied. The variations of the air pressures at the front and back of the wheel were obtained. A vehicle-mounted aerodynamic field testing device was developed. Air pressures of the front and back of moving wheels were measured with the vehicle-mounted device. Testing results agreed with numerical calculation. It was indicated that the developed device could be used to investigate the aerodynamic field in vehicle-pavement system.

Abstract:Bionic indenter was developed and used for food texture testing, and the characteristics of the masseter EMG in chewing process was obtained. The research found that the measurement results of bionic indenter and characteristics of the masseter EMG were significantly correlated. The correlation coefficients between the total energy of the first time compression and masseter activity, and between the hardness and the peak of masseter signal were 0.866 and 0.934, and the datas were bigger than the coefficients between the results of universal indenter and characteristics of the masseter EMG (0.740, 0.907). The results showed that the average closeness between food texture measured by bionic indenter and the variation of masseter activity was 9.3% higher than universal indenter, and the bionic indenter was better in reflection of actual food texture.

Abstract:The effects of aerobic composting pretreatment on the mixed material of pine sawdust (6.35 mm, 9.53 mm, 12.70 mm) and food wastes and the influence on subsequent dry anaerobic digestion were studied by adding the food wastes aiming at the problems of the less effects and the high costs of pretreatment of conifer pine before anaerobic digestion. The experimental results showed that the pretreatment effects of aerobic composting process on the pine sawdust were obvious. But the pretreatment effects decreased with the increase of particle size of pine sawdust. The biogas production rates of anaerobic digestion of the raw materials, which were pretreated by aerobic composting, were all within the ranges of 199~215 L/kg, about 140% of unpretreated samples. And the total volatile fatty acid of the material, which had more subsequent potential for generating biogas, were all 24.5 or so after anaerobic digestion, about 150% of unpretreated samples.

Abstract:The aerodynamic performance of original and modified airfoils with different camber for wind turbine was studied. The effects of relative camber on lift enhancement effect of blunt trailing-edge modification were revealed. The low-speed airfoil S809, S823 and S830 were modified to blunt trailing-edge airfoils of symmetrical trailing-edge thickness by XFOIL. The aerodynamic performance of original airfoils was simulated with S-A and k-ω SST turbulence model, respectively. And the numerical results were compared with the experimental data. Based on k-ω SST turbulence model with higher accuracy, the lift and drag coefficients, lift-drag ratios, their increments and airfoil surface pressure distributions of modified airfoils were calculated. The results showed that when the relative camber increased, the increment of lift coefficient increased first and then decreased in a certain range of attack angle, and the increment of lift-drag ratio increased before certain attack angle for blunt trailing-edge modification airfoils. The modified airfoil, whose relative camber was about 2.5% chord length, had the best lift enhancement effect, and the airfoil with large camber was unsuitable for the blunt trailing-edge modification.

Abstract:Based on remote networking technology, a dynamic irrigation water diversion system was developed. The system consisted of automatic metering sluice clusters installed on the canals and remote diversion control and management system working in dispatching center. Combined with open channel flow measurement principle and sensor technology, the metering function of the gate was designed. The symmetrical bidirectional coupled winding wheel pulling mechanism and hollow honeycomb structure gate panel were utilized, which could improve the movement reliability and the energy efficiency. An ARM-based gate controller and software system were developed to achieve the gate intelligent control and wireless remote communication function. Various working modes of the sluice could meet the different applications needs. A solar power system was devised to solve the outdoor power supply problem of the automatic gate. To implement the remote linkage control of the sluice clusters, remote water diversion control software package was developed. The application and experiment results showed that the gate terminal had good adaptability to outdoor environment and stable work performance. The water level control error was less than 5 mm and the gate gap positioning control error was less than 1 mm. Under free flow conditions the flow measurement error was less than 4.6%, and under submerged conditions the flow measurement error was less than 8.3%. The remote automatic metering gate could satisfy all kinds of automatic water conveyance project applications.

Abstract:The catalytic performance of the carbide slag modified by acetic acid in transesterification was investigated from aspects of molar ratio of methanol to oil, catalyst mass concentration, and reaction temperature and time. Meanwhile, the catalyst was characterized by thermogravimetric analyzer, X-ray diffractometer, N2 adsorption apparatus and Hammett indicator. The length of carbon atoms in peanut oil fatty acids was mainly for 16 to 18. The main component of the carbide slag modified by acetic acid was (CH3COO)2Ca·0.5H2O. And after calcined at 800, the catalyst mainly consisted of calcium oxide, with the surface area of 19.07 m2/g and the pore volume of 0.081 4 cm3/g. The catalytic performance of carbide slag modified by acetic acid was better than that of carbide slag under the same conditions. The 96.79% of glycerol yield could be reached under the preferred condition of 15 molar ratio of methanol to oil, 4% catalyst mass concentration, 59 reaction temperature, and 2 h reaction time. After reused five times, the glycerol yield still remained above 92.90% under the preferred conditions.

Abstract:The combustion cyclic variations of DMC/diesel burned in a common-rail engine under different conditions are studied, and the influences of COHR and EGR on combustion cyclic variations are also carried out. Results show that the combustion cyclic variations of different fuels burned in the common-rail engine are relatively small. The combustion cyclic variations of D10 are greater than that of diesel. The combustion cyclic variations at high load are relatively low. With the increase of COHR, the cyclic variations coefficient of pmi are not obvious, while the characteristic parameter for pmax grows slightly and that for θd grows obviously. The rise of EGR rate could cause the slow increase of cyclic variation coefficients of D10 fuel, while that for diesel is relatively smooth. The high mean indicated effective pressure corresponds to short flame developing period.

Abstract:Analytical Py-GC/MS (pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry) instrument was used for two-step fast pyrolysis of bagasse, to investigate the product distribution from the first-step fast pyrolysis of bagasse, as well as the effects of the first-step pyrolysis temperatures on the product distribution of the second-step fast pyrolysis process. The results indicated that the first-step fast pyrolysis of bagasse with low-temperature would obtain abundant 4-vinyl phenol (4-VP). The highest 4-VP selectivity was obtained at 250 with the 4-VP peak area percentage as high as 48.11%, and the maximal 4-VP yield was obtained at 300. The first-step pyrolysis temperature affected the second-step pyrolytic products significantly. As the increasing of the first-step pyrolysis temperature, the content of the levoglucosan (LG) in the second-step pyrolytic products increased remarkably, while the contents of most other products decreased significantly. According to the product composition, the bio-oil obtained from the second-step fast pyrolysis of the solid residues from the first-step fast pyrolysis at 300, had better fuel properties than those of the bio-oil obtained from direct fast pyrolysis of bagasse at 500. Therefore, the two-step bagasse fast pyrolysis technique was determined, i. e., the first-step fast pyrolysis at 300 to produce 4-VP and second-step fast pyrolysis at 500 to produce high-grade bio-oil.

Abstract:This paper describes the significance of transplanting agronomy for the development of China agriculture, and points out that the transplanting machine, especially the potted-seedling transplanting machine, will be the one to substantially increase the per unit area yield of grain and play the positive role of transplanting for increasing grain production in North China Cold Area and promoting farmers to get rich. After reviewing the history of transplanting equipments in the world, it is indicated that the development of transplanting machinery is generally divided from low to high into three stages, the slide-mechanism stage, bar-mechanism stage, and rotary-mechanism stage. This paper analyzes the development status and research level of the transplanting machinery at home and abroad, and forecasts the prospects of development trend. It is emphasized that in order to enter the rotary-mechanism stage of the potted-seedling transplanting machinery, the researchers must master the mechanism and related theories, computer knowledge and the operation, and secondary development skills of commercial software. The paper also puts forward a series of proposals on some current domestic important development trend.

Abstract:With the aim to provide scientific and guidance for the sustainable development of Weibei Tableland cultivated land, a study was conducted to explore the application of Cokriging with OM as auxiliary variable in the regional spatial estimation of topsoil TN content and carbon to nitrogen ratio (C/N) applying traditional statistics, geostatistics combining with GIS technology. The spatial variability and influencing factors of topsoil OM and TN was researched and the spatial pattern of their contents and topsoil C/N was further analyzed based on the data of the Cultivated Land Productivity Investigation and Quality Evaluation Project of Pucheng County in 2011.The results showed that the current average content of topsoil OM was 13.58 g/kg, TN was 0.81 g/kg and C/N was 9.84, and all of them were in relatively low level. Spatially, topsoil OM and TN contents generally increased from north to south along with geomorphologic types while topsoil C/N was high in north and south and low in the middle. Both OM and TN showed spatial cluster at 0.01 significance level and demonstrated moderate spatial correlation. The spatial variability was influenced by both natural factors such as topography and geomorphology, soil types and human factors including fertilization, cropping system, irrigation and so on, and the geographical guide of human activity was playing more and more important roles. With the same sampling numbers (n=554), compared with ordinary Kriging, Cokriging with OM as subsidiary variable was more suitable for spatial interpolation of TN and could provide more local variation information, but was unavailable for the raster ratio calculation to obtain soil C/N map.

In the 121 Regiment of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps (XPCC), Shihezi City, Xinjiang which is a typical area with mulched drip irrigation, soil salts in cotton fields were monitored for 4 consecutive years. The results showed that soil salts were continuously transferred away from the irrigation lines by the irrigation water. Horizontally, the salts gradually accumulated towards the bare soil between films, while vertically, they moved gradually towards deeper layers. Soil salt distribution in soil profiles changed from a wineglass shape (which was typical in wasteland and narrows down towards deeper soil layers) to a uniform vertical line with longer history of mulched drip irrigation. And this change was relatively pronounced from the 2nd to the 4th year of irrigation. After 4 years of irrigation, the soil at 140 cm below surface began to be desalinized and after 5 years of irrigation soil salt content was at a point that crops could tolerate. Soil salt content decrease was mainly affected by the local irrigation regime. Irrigation, especially large amounts of irrigation, changed the natural distribution features of salts. With periodic irrigation, soil salt content during crop growth period was relatively low and total soil salt content displayed decreasing trends. Soil salt content decreased mainly at the seeding stage and the late blossing and boll-forming stages. Soil salt content in the 0~300 cm layer also decreased gradually with longer history of drip irrigation. After about 10 years of irrigation, soil salt distributed in a modified form of a plumb line. For current drip irrigation regime, it was suggested that the irrigation amount for the blossing and boll-forming stages should be properly decreased to about 618 mm in fields with an irrigation history of over 5 years. However, a relatively large amount of irrigation water should be maintained for the seedling stage.

Abstract:The model of crop water product function can be used as the foundation in rational allocation of agricultural water resources, optimal irrigation schedule and quota management of agricultural irrigation water. In order to get the reasonable model and parameters of crop water product function for study area, the comparison was made among several models of the crop water product functions based on the data of remote sensing ET and yield for winter wheat. Here, four models of the crop water product functions for the whole growth period were selected such as linear model, parabola model, D-K model, and exponential model. At the same time, five models of the crop water product functions for different growing stage were selected such as Jensen, Minhas, Blank, Stewart, and Singh model. The results showed that the parabola model was recommended for the model of the crop water product functions for the whole growth period. The Stewart model was recommended for the model of the crop water product functions for different growth stages. The most sensitive stage to water-stress was heading stage, followed by flowering to mature stage, and the least by the seeding emergence to jointing stage. Therefore, in order to save water and increase water use efficiency, water demand in heading stage should be top-priority, while water demand in the seeding emergence to jointing stage should be decreased.

Abstract:This paper numerically simulated the soil cutting process of plane blade, one of the important components in no-till working implement, by ANSYS/LS_DYNA, with soil of conservation tillage in one year two crops area of North China. By theoretical analysis and test, the viability of SPH method on simulating the soil cutting process of plane blade was verified. By using MAT147 soil material model, SPH method and nodes-surface eroding contact, the finite element analysis on the soil cutting process of plane blade was implemented by ANSYS/LS_DYNA. Simulation result showed that SPH method could visually simulate the soil cutting process. The maximum Von Mises stress was 5.851 MPa and focused on the soil touching with plane blade. The Von Mises stress of soil had small fluctuation, so that the cutting was stable. The power consumption was approximately 10.2 kW at steady state, and the simulation error was not more than 0.05.It was proved that SPH method was viable, and finite element simulation could obtain parameters easily, such as scatter feature, force and power consumption, and reduce experimental cost and time. It provided a scientific basis for design optimization of conservation tillage anti-blocking implements.

Abstract:Using parametric design of SolidWorks, three-dimensional solid models of all parts of 9YG-130 double disc mower cutter were built, and the design of virtual prototype was completed by constraint assemble. Introducing the models to the dynamic analysis software ADAMS, the motion simulation was performed, and the trajectory of the cutter vertex was obtained when setting the forward speed of the cutter with 2.78 m/s, and rotation speed with 2 000 r/min. The virtual orthogonal experiment with three levels and four factors was conducted, and Design-Expect 8.0 software was used to complete analysis of variance. The results showed that the repeat cut ratio of the cutter was effectively reduced when the four factors were vg=57.01 m/s, vj=2.76 m/s, h=34.06 mm, and m=3. The actual prototype experiment results showed that the experiment design met the mower requirements for grass industry technology, and improved efficiency and accuracy of the design.

Abstract:An innovative way was proposed to detect citrus canopy LAI fast and easily based on wide-angle photographing technology. The citrus canopy images obtained by wide-angle lens were first sent into computer. And then the images were grayed, enhanced, filtered and binarized. The system calculated the citrus canopy gap fraction and derived LAI. The citrus canopy LAI detected by scanning method was taken as true value in the whole experiment. The Canadian WinSCANOPY was used in comparison with the system in detecting effect. The result of data collection experiment showed that the variation range of relative error was -30.39%~43.53% and the average of absolute relative error was 18.90% by the Canadian WinSCANOPY. The variation range of relative error was -27.26%~37.06% and the average of absolute relative error was 19.91% by the system based on same test condition. This system meets test requirements of citrus canopy LAI detecting.

Abstract:The porous media was divided into the fractal aggregation and the non fractal solid phase and pore phase, and a simplified cell model was made to show the microstructure. Porosity, areal fractal dimension, tortuosity fractal dimension, tortuosity, solid phase area and pore phase area of incomplete fractal porous were exhibited. The effective thermal conductivity was built combined with thermal energy and Fourier's law of heat conduction during drying, thermal energy including the heat which required for solid phase during the drying and the heat coming from the circulating hot air. The model was not based on empirical formulas and assumed thermal resistance, and each symbol had definite physical meaning. The result showed that effective thermal conductivity had a negative correlation with the tortuosity fractal dimension, porosity, areal fractal dimension and hot air temperature, while it has a positive correlation with the hot air rate and time.

Abstract:A regenerative organic Rankine cycle (RORC) system is designed to recover the exhaust heat of diesel engine. The organic working fluids under investigation are the pure fluid R245fa and the zeotropic mixture Mix (isopentane and R245fa mixed in 7/3 mole fraction). The influence of intermediate pressure (pressures at which the steam is extracted from the expander) on the performance parameters of the RORC system, such as the net power output, the thermal efficiency, and the mass flow rate of the working fluid, are analyzed, and on the basis of the analysis results, the intermediate pressure is set to 1.15 MPa for the RORC system using Mix and 1.2 MPa for the RORC system using R245fa. Then the performance of the RORC system using the two different working fluids is analyzed over the whole operating range of the diesel engine, respectively. The calculation results show that Mix is the better selection for the RORC system than R245fa.

Abstract:A method to simulate the leaf color based on SPAD data was presented. Firstly, the color data in different physiological ages of green dill leaves were tracked and detected using a self-made device for capturing leaf images, which could maintain the stability of the external environment (such as light, camera position). Then, the leaf color attributes were analysed based on the data collected and a function representing the relationship between SPAD and leaf color was constructed to deduce the diffuse reflection formula of the leaf. Finally, a SPAD texture was used to simulate the time-and-space-varying reflectance of leaves aging. The experimental results showed that in the constant environment, the relationship between the SPAD and diffuse color of leaves could be represented by some exponential functions and the R2 was 0.972, 0.968, 0.509 respectively. This showed that there was a correlation between SPAD and leaf diffuse color, and it was reasonable using SPAD value as a driving factor to simulate the leaf aging. Meanwhile, compared with real photo, visual effects of proposed method could show the trend of leaf color aging realistically.

Abstract:An automatic height profiling device with spring force-balance is designed to solve the problem of ground profiling in side-lining type of quadrate-bale baler pickup. Based on the analysis of statics and kinematics to the profiling device, the profiling performance is evaluated by the vertical direction force of profiling wheel and the profiling error. The effects of the kinematic parameter (λ) of pickup, the length (L) of the swimming arm and the amplitude (H) of the ground on the profiling performance are analyzed. The appropriate pickup movement parameters and profiling device structure parameters are determined by making a comparative analysis on the profiling error of the end of spring-finger and vertical direction force of profiling wheel. These results show that the profiling device can fulfill the requirements of a wavy terrain which varies between ±8 cm and ±12 cm, when the unit speed (vt) moves from 5 km/h to 7.9 km/h and the length (L) of the swing arm of profiling wheel is 358 mm. The prototype test shows that the profiling device can adapt to wavy field and make the spring-finger of pickup have suitable ground clearance. The profiling error can be controlled between -4 mm and 18 mm.

Abstract:According to the position overshoot of fast positioning for electro-hydraulic position control system, a composite control strategy combining fuzzy velocity compensation with robust μ control was put forward, considering the influence of variable stiffness on position control system. The working principle of the composite strategy was given and the flow compensation equation was derived, and the velocity compensation without disturbance and the inhibiting of stiffness perturbation were achieved by using the controller combining fuzzy velocity compensation and robust μ controller. The composite strategy was verified by co-simulation of Matlab & AMESim and semi-physical simulation platform respectively, and the results of the simulation and experiment showed that the electro-hydraulic position servo system with robust μ controller could effectively inhibit parameter perturbation. The rapid positioning control was realized after introducing the velocity v compensation control loop, which verified the efficiency of the method presented through simulations.

Abstract:A two-dimensional video disdrometer (2DVD) was used to measure drop size, drop velocity and drop angle from Nelson D3000 spray-plate sprinklers with a 4.78 mm nozzle and operating pressure of 50, 100, 150, 200 kPa. The relationship among drop sizes, drop velocity and drop angle were analyzed. Results indicated that the relationship between drop diameter and distances along the sprinkler met exponential function. The volumetric mean diameter increased with the distance along the sprinkler increased, and at the same location from the sprinkler the average droplet diameter decreased with the increase of working pressure. The relationship between drop velocity and drop diameter met logarithmic function. Drop velocity increased with the drop diameter increased, and the effect of operating pressure on the relationship between drop diameter and velocity was not obvious. Drop angle decreased with the increase of drop diameter. When drop diameter was smaller than 1.0mm and operating pressure was at 50, 100, 150, 200 kPa, 90.46%, 84.46%, 89.91% and 89.15% of the droplets descended perpendicularly to the ground, respectively. The rest of the droplets descended to the ground with angle between 30°~89°. When drop diameter was between 1.0 mm and 2.25 mm, the drop angle decreased rapidly with the drop diameter increased. And when drop diameter was greater than 2.25 mm, the decrease trend became slower. The relationship between drop angle and drop diameter met a good linear function, and the effect of operating pressure on the relationship between drop angle and diameter was not obvious.

Abstract:The object was to explore precise management mode of water and nitrogen to tropical economic crop of young arabica coffee tree, using four levels of irrigation, WS (75%~85% field capacity), WH (65%~75% field capacity), WM (55%~65% field capacity) and WL (45%~55% field capacity), and four levels of nitrogen, NH (0.60 g/kg), NM (0.40 g/kg), NL(0.20 g/kg) and NZ (0 g/kg). The effect of irrigation and nitrogen on biochemical index and water and nitrogen use of arabica coffee young tree was studied. The result showed that, compared with WL, increasing irrigation amount reduced chlorophyll, carotenoid, malondialdehyde, proline and soluble sugar by 5.8%~15.5%, 6.0%~14.4%, 14.2%~30.3%, 27.6%~60.0% and 22.6%~57.5% respectively, and increased root activity and water use efficiency by 15.8%~63.8% and 21.6%~29.6%, and reduced the average value of soil NO3--N by 21.5%~36.2%. Compared with NZ, increasing nitrogen rate reduced malondialdehyde by 23.8%~49.8%, while increased chlorophyll, carotenoid, proline, soluble sugar, root activity and water use efficiency by 49.0%~88.4%, 21.9%~60.9%, 509%~703%, 20.7%~52.3%, 23.5%~41.8% and 21.6%~53.9% respectively, and increased the average value of soil NO3--N by 2.73~14.44 times. Total N uptake was positively correlated with irrigation amount under NZ and NL treatment, and water use efficiency and total N uptake increased at first and then decreased with irrigation amount under NM and NH treatment. Water use efficiency and total N uptake were quadratic curve relation with nitrogen rate under deferent irrigation treatment. Water use efficiency of NM/WH treatment was the largest, and N apparent recovery fraction and N uptake efficiency were the largest under NM and NH treatment. Thus combination of NM/WH was the efficient use of water and nitrogen of young arabica coffee tree.

Abstract:The influence of flow velocity and oxygen concentration on acetaldehyde and formaldehyde emissions from ethanol oxidation was investigated in a flow reactor under the temperature environment of engine exhaust pipe. Unregulated emissions were detected by a gas chromatography with a pulsed discharge helium ionization detector (PDHID). Experimental results showed that ethanol concentration increased with the increase of flow velocity at temperature range of 733~933 K. Ethanol oxidation reaction was inhibited in anaerobic conditions, and oxygen-rich environment was conducive to ethanol oxidation. Acetaldehyde and formaldehyde emissions increased with prolonging the reaction time of ethanol oxidation when the temperature was lower than 833 K, while the opposite trend to acetaldehyde was observed when the temperature was above 833 K, and the influence of flow velocity on acetaldehyde emission was not obvious when the temperature was higher than 933 K. The generation and oxidation reactions of acetaldehyde were inhibited in anaerobic conditions. Below the critical temperature, the oxygen-rich environment was conducive to acetaldehyde and formaldehyde generation. Above the critical temperature, the oxygen-rich environment was conducive to acetaldehyde oxidation.

Abstract:A new structure rotary magnetorheological damper with three working surfaces was designed, which were two end surfaces and one cylindrical surface of the rotor. The area of the working surfaces was increased with the same volume of the rotor. Base on properties of magnetorheological fluid and magnetic core material, the magnetic circuit was designed, and the mechanical and electrical parameters of the damper were calculated. Depending on the characteristics of the magnetorheological damper structure, the finite element model of the magnetorheological damper was built, and the electromagnetic field analysis was performed. Then the magnetic field quantities of the damper model were got. With the results of the magnetic analysis and the constitutive relations, the performance simulation of the damper was conducted. On these bases, the magnetorheological damper and the mechanical performance test system were developed, and the mechanical performance of the damper was investigated using the test system.

Abstract:With the aim to investigate the physiological mechanism of tobacco response to molybdenum stress, the effect of photosynthetic pigment, gas exchange parameters, chlorophyll fluorescence parameters and chloroplast ultrastructure of tobacco were studied under molybdenum deficiency stress by the hydroponic experiment. The results showed that, compared with the control group, the photosynthetic pigment contents and net photosynthetic rate of tobacco leaves cultivated about 10 d decreased, while intercellular CO2 concentration, stomatal conductance and transpiration rate increased. And the initial fluorescence and non-photochemical quenching coefficient (NPQ) of PS II increased, while photosynthetic electron transport rate (ETR) and the maximal photochemical efficiency decreased, but the differences between two treatments were not significant. The grana layer of the chloroplast ultrastructure under molybdenum deficiency stress expanded to deformation and loose, the number of amyloid was less and it grew worse. The most indicators between molybdenum deficiency and control tobacco cultivated about 20 d were significant. In addition to Tr, other indexes between molybdenum deficiency and control tobacco cultivated about 30 d were significant, and the chloroplast under the molybdenum deficiency stress was damaged seriously. Therefore, under the molybdenum deficiency stress, the chloroplast ultrastructure grows worse, the activity of PS II is inhibited, and the Pn decreases. With the extension of molybdenum stress time, the deficiency reaction is more obvious.

Abstract:The measurement of the flow rate of various liquids and gases is critical in industrial automation. Positive displacement flowmeters (PDFs) are highly accurate flowmeters that are relatively insensitive to the upstream velocity distribution and fluid viscosity. This paper presents a high-pressure PDF containing a pair of internal cycloid rotors, with the advantages of large displacement, compact structure, high accuracy and small pressure loss. Flow coefficient curve of the prototype fabricated as the part of this research is given, and the reasons influencing the accuracy of the PDF are analysed deeply. In order to further improve the accuracy, the flow coefficient is corrected by linear function. Several experiments were performed to confirm the measurements over a flow range of 1~100 L/min with relative errors of less than 0.3%.

Abstract:In different microwave powers, the process and quality of ginger slices microwave-fluidization drying was researched. In the microwave power of 0.7 W/g, which was moderate for the process parameters, the drying time cost 1.83 hours, 6.67 hours less than that in the 75 hot-air drying, and protected the content of vitamin C better. However, the microstructure and rehydration capability changed too much in microwave-fluidization drying, and when the dry basis moisture content was less than 200%, the gingers' sensory quality turned bad quickly. In order to develop the microwave-fluidization drying's relative advantage, controlling the dehydration speed in final stage would be important, which also was the key work to improve the process.

Abstract:Digested resistant starches of mung bean, potato, Castanea henryi and Castanea mollissima were made, and the changes of intestinal flora and their structure before and after in vitro fermentation were studied. The results showed that those digested resistant starches had good proliferative effect on bifidobacterium and lactobacillus, while they had inhibitory impact on Escherichia coli and Clostridium perfringens, and no obious influence on Enterococcus faecalis, Corynebacterium fusifome and facultative bacterial. The increasing total acidities of fermentation liquids demonstrated that the digested resistant starches could be used by intestinal probiotics. In comparison with the digested resistant starches before fermentation, the digested resistant starches after fermentation had more lower average degree of polymerization, but had more greater specific surface areas and densities, which might improve their absorption capacities and play important roles in the other physiological functions. Crystal types of digested resistant starches after fermentation turned into type A, and their microcrystalline degrees reduced.
