How- ever, attempts to further increase grain yields have had limited success. Field experiments were conducted in 2007 and 2008 at four sites to evaluate the effect of an in-season root-zone N management strategy on maize （Zea mays L.）. According to the in-season root-zone N management, the optimal N rate （ONR） was determined by subtracting measured soil mineral N （NHa＋-N and NO3-N） in the root zone from N target values. Other treatments included a control without N fertilization, 70% of ONR~ 130% of ONR, and recommended N rate （RNR） by agronomists in China that have been shown to approach maize yield potentials. Although apparent N recovery for the ONR treatment was significantly higher than that under RNR in 2007, grain yield declined from 13.3 to 11.0 Mg ha-1 because of an underestimation of N uptake. In 2008, N target values were adjusted to match crop uptake, and N fertilization rates were reduced from 450 kg N ha-1 for RNR to 225 to 265 kg N ha 1 for ONR. High maize yields were maintained at 12.6 to 13.5 Mg ha 1 which were twice the yield from typical farmers＇ practice. As a result, apparent N recovery increased from 29% to 66%, and estimated N losses decreased significantly for the ONR treatment compared to the RNR treatment. In conclusion, the in-season root-zone N management approach was able to achieve high yields, high NUE and low N losses.展开更多

The optimal L^2 time convergence rate for the global classical solution is obtained for a small initial perturbation of the constant equilibrium state. It is shown that due to the electric field, the difference of the charge densities tend to the equilibrium states at the optimal rate （1 ＋ t）^-3/4 in L^2-norm, while the individual momentum of the charged particles converges at the optimal rate （1 ＋ t）^-1/4 which is slower than the rate （1 ＋ t）^-3/4 for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations （NS）. In addition, a new phenomenon on the charge transport is observed regarding the interplay between the two carriers that almost counteracts the influence of the electric field so that the total density and momentum of the two carriers converges at a faster rate （1 ＋ t）^-3/4＋ε for any small constant ε 〉 0. The above estimates reveal the essential difference between the unipolar and the bipolar Navier-Stokes-Poisson systems.展开更多

The optimal time decay rate of global strong solution is established. When the regular initial data belong to the Sobolev space H l（R3） ∩ B˙ s 1,1 （R3） with l ≥ 4 and s ∈ （0, 1], it is shown that the momenta of the charged particles decay at the optimal rate （1＋t） 1 4 s 2 in L2 -norm, which is slower than the rate （1＋t） 3 4 s 2 for the compressible Navier-Stokes （NS） equations [14]. In particular, a new phenomenon on the charge transport is observed. The time decay rate of total density and momentum was both （1 ＋ t） 3 4 due to the cancellation effect from the interplay interaction of the charged particles.展开更多

The ...Shape optimization of mechanical components is one of the issues that have been considered in recent years. Different methods were presented such as adaptive biological for reducing costs and increasing accuracy. The effects of step factor, the number of control points and the definition way of control points coordinates in convergence rate were studied. A code was written using ANSYS Parametric Design Language (APDL) which receives the studied parameters as input and obtains the optimum shape for the components. The results show that for achieving successful optimization, step factor should be in a specific range. It is found that the use of any coordinate system in defining control points coordinates and selection of any direction for stimulus vector of algorithm will also result in optimum shape. Furthermore, by increasing the number of control points, some non-uniformities are created in the studied boundary. Achieving acceptable accuracy seems impossible due to the creation of saw form at the studied boundary which is called "saw position".展开更多

The geometrical parameters of the sealing members are optimized by means of heat transfer analysis and complex method. The analysis results indicate that the shallow spiral grooves can generate hydrodynamic pressure while the rotating ring rotates and the bearing force of the fluid film in spiral groove end faces is much larger than that in the flat end faces. The deformation increases the bearing force of the fluid film in flat end faces, but it decreases the hydrodynamic pressure of the fluid film in spiral groove end faces. The gap dimensions which determine the characteristics of the fluid film is obtained by coupling analysis of the frictional heat and the thermal deformation in consideration of the equilibrium condition of the bearing force and the closing force. For different gap dimensions, the relation- ship between the closing force and the leakage rate is also investigated, based on which the leakage rate can be controlled by adjusting the closing force.展开更多

The global unique solution and optimal convergence rates are obtained by pure energy method provided the initial perturbation around a constant state is small. In particular, the optimal decay rates of the higher-order spatial derivatives of the solution are obtained. As an imme- diate byproduct, the usual Lp - L2（1 〈 p 〈 2） type of the optimal decay rate follow without requiring that the Lp norm of initial data is small.展开更多

To get a clearer topological configuration, by introducing the discrete condition of topological variables and integrating with the original objective, an optimal model with multi-objectives is formulated to make the topological variables approach 0 or 1 as near as possible, and the model reduces the effect of deleting rate on the result. The image-filtering method is employed to eliminate the checkerboard patterns and mesh dependence that occurred in the topology optimization of a continuum structure. The computational efficiency is enhanced through selecting quasi-active displacement constraints and a design region. Numerical examples indicate that this algorithm is robust and practicable, though the number of iterations is slightly increased with respect to the original algorithm.展开更多

In 2008, N target values were adjusted to match crop uptake, and N fertilization rates were reduced from 450 kg N ha-1 for RNR to 225 to 265 kg N ha 1 for ONR. High maize yields were maintained at 12.6 to 13.5 Mg ha 1 which were twice the yield from typical farmers＇ practice. As a result, apparent N recovery increased from 29% to 66%, and estimated N losses decreased significantly for the ONR treatment compared to the RNR treatment. In conclusion, the in-season root-zone N management approach was able to achieve high yields, high NUE and low N losses.

文摘The bipolar Navier-Stokes-Poisson system （BNSP） has been used to simulate the transport of charged particles （ions and electrons for instance） under the influence of electrostatic force governed by the self-consistent Poisson equation. The optimal L^2 time convergence rate for the global classical solution is obtained for a small initial perturbation of the constant equilibrium state. It is shown that due to the electric field, the difference of the charge densities tend to the equilibrium states at the optimal rate （1 ＋ t）^-3/4 in L^2-norm, while the individual momentum of the charged particles converges at the optimal rate （1 ＋ t）^-1/4 which is slower than the rate （1 ＋ t）^-3/4 for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations （NS）. In addition, a new phenomenon on the charge transport is observed regarding the interplay between the two carriers that almost counteracts the influence of the electric field so that the total density and momentum of the two carriers converges at a faster rate （1 ＋ t）^-3/4＋ε for any small constant ε 〉 0. The above estimates reveal the essential difference between the unipolar and the bipolar Navier-Stokes-Poisson systems.

文摘Path planning algorithm is the key point to UAV path planning scenario.Many traditional path planning methods still suffer from low convergence rate and insufficient robustness.In this paper,three main methods are contributed to solving these problems.First,the improved artificial potential field(APF)method is adopted to accelerate the convergence process of the bat’s position update.Second,the optimal success rate strategy is proposed to improve the adaptive inertia weight of bat algorithm.Third chaos strategy is proposed to avoid falling into a local optimum.Compared with standard APF and chaos strategy in UAV path planning scenarios,the improved algorithm CPFIBA(The improved artificial potential field method combined with chaotic bat algorithm,CPFIBA)significantly increases the success rate of finding suitable planning path and decrease the convergence time.Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm also has great robustness for processing with path planning problems.Meanwhile,it overcomes the shortcomings of the traditional meta-heuristic algorithms,as their convergence process is the potential to fall into a local optimum.From the simulation,we can see also obverse that the proposed CPFIBA provides better performance than BA and DEBA in problems of UAV path planning.

文摘In this paper, we combine the method of constructing the compensating function introduced by Kawashima and the standard energy method for the study on the Landau equation with external forcing. Both the global existence of solutions near the time asymptotic states which are local Maxwellians and the optimal convergence rates are obtained. The method used here has its own advantage for this kind of studies because it does not involve the spectrum analysis of the corresponding linearized operator.

文摘The isentropic bipolar compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson （BNSP） system is investigated in R3 in the present paper. The optimal time decay rate of global strong solution is established. When the regular initial data belong to the Sobolev space H l（R3） ∩ B˙ s 1,1 （R3） with l ≥ 4 and s ∈ （0, 1], it is shown that the momenta of the charged particles decay at the optimal rate （1＋t） 1 4 s 2 in L2 -norm, which is slower than the rate （1＋t） 3 4 s 2 for the compressible Navier-Stokes （NS） equations [14]. In particular, a new phenomenon on the charge transport is observed. The time decay rate of total density and momentum was both （1 ＋ t） 3 4 due to the cancellation effect from the interplay interaction of the charged particles.

文摘Yield performance in cereal and legume intercropping is related to nutrient management,however,the yield response of companion crops to nitrogen(N)input is inconclusive and only limited efforts have focused on rationed phosphorous(P)fertilization.In this study,two multi-year field experiments were implemented from 2014-2019 under identical conditions.Two factors in a randomized complete block design were adopted in both experiments.In field experiment 1,the two factors included three planting patterns(mono-cropped wheat(MW),mono-cropped faba bean(MF),and wheat and faba bean intercropping(W//F))and four N application rates(N0,0 kg N ha^(-1);N1,90 and 45 kg N ha^(-1) for wheat and faba beans,respectively;N2,180 and 90 kg N ha^(-1) for wheat and faba beans,respectively;and N3,270 and 135 kg N ha^(-1) for wheat and faba beans,respectively).In field experiment 2,the two factors included three P application rates(P0,0 kg P_(2)O_(5) ha^(-1);P1,45 kg P_(2)O_(5) ha^(-1);and P2,90 kg P_(2)O_(5) ha^(-1))and the same three planting patterns(MW,MF,and W//F).The yield performances of inter-and mono-cropped wheat and faba beans under different N and P application rates were analyzed and the optimal N and P rates for intercropped wheat(IW)and MW were estimated.The results revealed that intercropping favored wheat yield and was adverse to faba bean yield.Wheat yield increased by 18-26%,but faba bean yield decreased by 5-21% in W//F compared to MW and MF,respectively.The stimulated IW yield drove the yield advantage in W//F with an average land equivalent ratio(LER)of 1.12.N and P fertilization benefited IW yield,but reduced intercropped faba bean(IF)yield.Nevertheless,the partial LER of wheat(pLER_(wheat))decreased with increasing N application rates,and the partial LER of faba bean(pLER_(faba bean))decreased with increasing P application rates.Thus,LER decreased as N input increased and tended to decline as P rates increased.IW maintained a similar yield as MW,even under reduced 40-50% N fertilizer and 30-40% P fertilizer conditions.The estimated optimum N application rates for IW and MW were 150 and 168 kg ha^(-1),respectively,and 63 and 62 kg ha^(-1) for P_(2)O_(5),respectively.In conclusion,W//F exhibited yield advantages due to stimulated IW yield,but the intercropping yield benefit decreased as N and P inputs increased.Thus,it was concluded that modulated N and P rates could maximize the economic and ecological functions of intercropping.Based on the results,rates of 150 kg N ha^(-1) and 60 kg P_(2)O_(5) ha^(-1) are recommended for IW production in southwestern China and places with similar conditions.

文摘This is a survey paper on the study of compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations. The emphasis is on the long time behavior of global solutions to multi-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations, and the optimal decay rates for both unipolar and bipolar compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations are discussed.
文摘Shape optimization of mechanical components is one of the issues that have been considered in recent years. Different methods were presented such as adaptive biological for reducing costs and increasing accuracy. The effects of step factor, the number of control points and the definition way of control points coordinates in convergence rate were studied. A code was written using ANSYS Parametric Design Language (APDL) which receives the studied parameters as input and obtains the optimum shape for the components. The results show that for achieving successful optimization, step factor should be in a specific range. It is found that the use of any coordinate system in defining control points coordinates and selection of any direction for stimulus vector of algorithm will also result in optimum shape. Furthermore, by increasing the number of control points, some non-uniformities are created in the studied boundary. Achieving acceptable accuracy seems impossible due to the creation of saw form at the studied boundary which is called "saw position".
文摘In order to investigate the sealing performance variation resulted from the thermal deformation of the end faces, the equations to calculate the fluid film pressure distribution, the bearing force and the leakage rate are derived, for the fluid film both in parallel gap and in wedgy gap. The geometrical parameters of the sealing members are optimized by means of heat transfer analysis and complex method. The analysis results indicate that the shallow spiral grooves can generate hydrodynamic pressure while the rotating ring rotates and the bearing force of the fluid film in spiral groove end faces is much larger than that in the flat end faces. The deformation increases the bearing force of the fluid film in flat end faces, but it decreases the hydrodynamic pressure of the fluid film in spiral groove end faces. The gap dimensions which determine the characteristics of the fluid film is obtained by coupling analysis of the frictional heat and the thermal deformation in consideration of the equilibrium condition of the bearing force and the closing force. For different gap dimensions, the relation- ship between the closing force and the leakage rate is also investigated, based on which the leakage rate can be controlled by adjusting the closing force.

文摘We consider the Stokes approximation equations for compressible flows in /~3. The global unique solution and optimal convergence rates are obtained by pure energy method provided the initial perturbation around a constant state is small. In particular, the optimal decay rates of the higher-order spatial derivatives of the solution are obtained. As an imme- diate byproduct, the usual Lp - L2（1 〈 p 〈 2） type of the optimal decay rate follow without requiring that the Lp norm of initial data is small.

文摘ICM （Independent Continuous Mapping） method can solve topological optimization problems with the minimized weight as the objective and subjected to displacement constraints. To get a clearer topological configuration, by introducing the discrete condition of topological variables and integrating with the original objective, an optimal model with multi-objectives is formulated to make the topological variables approach 0 or 1 as near as possible, and the model reduces the effect of deleting rate on the result. The image-filtering method is employed to eliminate the checkerboard patterns and mesh dependence that occurred in the topology optimization of a continuum structure. The computational efficiency is enhanced through selecting quasi-active displacement constraints and a design region. Numerical examples indicate that this algorithm is robust and practicable, though the number of iterations is slightly increased with respect to the original algorithm.
