Two best F4 - derived lines were chosen from each of the six crosses under both high-and low-fertility for use in this study. In 1995, the total 24 lines were tested in high, medium and low fertility sites with the same experimental design (CRB) to study the selcctoin effects of high and low - fertility. The results suggested that high- and low-fertility had different selection effects. High fertility was more effective for selecting lines, which had higher yield under high-fertility and lower yield under low-fertility; low-fertility was better for selecting lines, which had higher yield under low-fertility and lower yield under low-fertility, and high fertility was somewhat better than low fertility for selecting lines, which had higher yield under both high and low-fertility. It revealed that the lines selected from high-fertility had superior yield potential. The lines selected from high-fertility had shorter plant height, more nodes on main stem, fewer branches, higher seed-stem ratio. The reverse was true for the lines selected from low-fertility . The lodging-resistance of the lines selected from highfertility was greater than that of the lines from low-fertility. The soil fertility level of breeding nursery should be chosen according to the breeding objective.展开更多

Our simulated results reveal that the geometry of the square SRR can be equivalent to a Jerusalem cross(JC) resonator and its corresponding metamaterial absorber(MA) is changed to a JC absorber. The JC MA exhibits an experimental absorption peak of 99.1% at 8.72 GHz, which shows an excellent agreement with our simulated results. By simply assembling several JCs with slightly different geometric parameters next to each other into a unit cell, a perfect multi-band absorption can be effectively obtained. The experimental results show that the MA has four distinct and strong absorption peaks at 8.32 GHz, 9.8 GHz, 11.52 GHz and 13.24 GHz. Finally, the multi-reflection interference theory is introduced to interpret the absorption mechanism.展开更多

Finally, the multi-reflection interference theory is introduced to interpret the absorption mechanism.
文摘The narrow genetic base in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) limits the progress in cultivar development.The rich diploid germplasm in the origin center of potato provide a unique resource for improvement of tetraploid potatoes.Seven newly developed diploid hybrids with 2n pollen production,all of which have S. phureja background,were developed and evaluated for their value in potato breeding.They were crossed as male parnets to six tetraploid Solanum tuberosum cultivars,and seeds in large quantity from eleven crosses were obtained.Main agronomic traits,such as tuber yield,tuber number,mean tuber weight,tuber shape,eye depth,skin smoothness,flesh color,and specific gravity,were measured for 4x 2x tetraploid progenies in seedling generation,and their parents as well.All of the diploid hybrids had some merit for specific traits and the DH39 was more promising;high specific gravity trait in some diploid hybrids was successfully introgressed into tetroploid progenies via 4x 2x crosses.These diploid hybrids have potential value in potato breeding.

文摘With the rapid development of modern electronic technology,the demand for high-performance microwave absorption materials has increased dramatically.In order to meet this demand,the electrospinning of FeNiCo/carbon nanofiber(FeNiCo/CNF)composites with excellent microwave absorption properties was developed,and their potential as high frequency microwave absorption materials was evaluated.Experiment showed that FeNiCo/CNFs achieve a minimum reflection loss(RL_(min))of−55.5 dB with a matching thickness of only 1.6 mm.Microstructure analysis and electromagnetic parameter testing showed that the excellent microwave absorbing properties were mainly due to the combined effect of the network structure of carbon nanofibers and the FeNiCo alloy.This interaction promotes multiple reflections and the efficient absorption of microwaves.Computer simulation also showed that the FeNiCo/CNF composites produce an excellent radar cross-section reduction in typical radar operating frequency bands,which validates their potential application in stealth technology.This is a new concept in the development of high-performance microwave absorption materials.
文摘Knowing the precise relationship between fuel loading and reactivity is essential for guiding reactor criticality extrapolation and online refueling in molten salt reactors(MSRs).This study aims to explore and explain the linear relationship between reactivity and the reciprocal of uranium concentration in thermal-spectrum MSRs.By applying neutron balance theory,we analyzed the neutron absorption cross sections of various nuclides in single-lattice models with varying fuel concentrations.Our findings reveal a simple linear correlation between reactivity and the reciprocal of uranium concentration,which can be explained from the perspective of nuclear reaction cross sections that adhere to the 1/v law in the thermal neutron spectrum.Furthermore,we identified that the neutron absorption single-group cross sections of structural materials and carrier salts exhibit an approximately linear relationship with the fission single-group cross section of ^(235) U;similarly,the reciprocal of ^(235)U’s fission cross section exhibits an approximately linear relationship with uranium concentration.This linear relationship deviates as the volume fraction of molten salt increases,due to a greater proportion of neutrons being captured in the resonance energy spectrum.However,it remains valid for molten salt volume fractions up to 25%and demonstrates broad applicability in the physical design and operation of thermal molten salt reactors.

文摘The purpose of the present investigation is to explore the implications of Cross fluid in a Darcy-Forchheimer porousmediumdue to the tri-hybrid nanofluid past a porous cylinder.Thermal radiation,heat generation,thermal convection,solutal convective and chemical reaction have been encountered in this analysis.Entropy generation has been accounted for under the fluidic friction,heat rate analysis,and porosity analysis.Three different nanoparticles of multiwall carbon nanotube(MWCNT),aluminum oxide(Al_(2)O_(3)),and silver(Ag)are utilized to illustrate the tri-hybrid nanofluid flow with Ethlene Glycol(EG)as the base fluid.The governance model,consisting of linked inadequate differential conditions,is transformed into an ordinary configuration of nonlinear coupled differential conditions by acceptable adjustments.The obtained outcomes in combination with the bvp4c approach are then used to resolve the generated ODEs.For discussion purposes,the impacts of the physical limitations on temperature profile,velocity,and concentration have also been illustrated.Numerical results have been obtained for the diffusion rate,heat transfer rate,drag force,and other factors.While the Forchheimer parameter and the inclination angle reduce the fluid flow’s velocity,the Biot number of heat and mass transfer influences the fluid’s temperature.According to the findings,hybrid nanofluid is the most effective way to improve heat transmission and may also be utilized for cooling.Three different kinds of nanofluids were used in a comparative examination to clarify the study’s conclusions.Changes in viscosity and porousness caused the nanofluids’velocity to drop by 13.12%and 15.8%,respectively;however,trihybrid nanofluids with improved convection showed a 13.12%rise.

文摘Roof pre-fracture poses a considerable risk during the re-mining of residual coal above abandoned roadways,threatening the safety of the mining faces.This study employs a Winkler foundation beam model for mechanical analysis of roof structures and adopts a multivariate nonlinear analysis approach to explore the synergistic load-bearing effects within the'coal pillar-support-backfill body'system during the fill and re-mining processes above these roadways.The findings demonstrate that backfill mining significantly reduces stress concentrations in coal pillars and reduces excessive bending moments in roofs near abandoned roadways.The roof deflection equation incorporates three critical factors affecting stability during backfill mining:the width of the coal pillar(L_(3)),the working resistance of the support(q_(z)),and the elastic foundation coefficient of the backfill material(kcÞ.Under single-factor conditions,the impact sequence on roof stability in the coal pillar zone is·k_(c)>L_(3)>q_(z).Further,multivariate nonlinear analysis reveals the interactions within the'coal-support-backfill'structure,indicating that in terms of roof control,the interaction terms are ordered as L_(3)·k_(c)>q_(z)·k_(c)>L_(3)q_(z).Therefore,priority should be given to adjusting the coal pillar width and backfill strength,followed by modifications to the support resistance and backfill strength during the recovery of abandoned roadways.An improved understanding of these interactions will help optimize strategies for the recovery of residual coal through abandoned roadways,thereby enhancing the stability and safety of mining operations under complex geological conditions.

文摘Thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)exciplexes,constituted of donor-acceptor moieties,have garnered mounting interest because of their promising potential to obtain high-performance electroluminescent devices.However,the moderate reverse intersystem crossing(RISC)of current reported exciplex systems and the lack of clear molecular design concepts to improve this situation have distinctly hindered the further use of exciplexes in organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs).Herein,we conduct an exploration of exciplex systems founded upon[2,2]paracyclophane(PCP)-containing donor molecules and a triazine acceptor,which exhibit very fast RISC processes with a rate constant(k_(RISC))up to 8.3×10^(6) s^(-1)benefiting from the efficient interactions between the donor and acceptor fragments induced by the peripheral spatial-blocking of PCP group.Utilizing these deep-blue exciplexes as hosts and a multiple resonance(MR)molecule as emitter,pure-blue narrowband OLEDs with CIE coordinates of(0.124,0.137),a full-width at half-maximum(FWHM)of 23 nm,and a high external quantum efficiency(EQE)of around 30%are accessed.This study paves the way for developing blue OLEDs using PCP-based exciplex materials with an enhanced RISC process.
文摘In recent years,terbium radioisotopes have been investigated for their potential therapeutic and diagnostic applications in nuclear medicine.This study aimed to investigate the production of ^(152) Tb and ^(155) Tb by alpha-induced reactions in detail,with a specific focus on determining the optimum production parameters and testing existing nuclear models.Given the limited number of experiments conducted on reactions related to terbium isotope production,it is necessary to perform theoretical calculations of cross sections over a wide energy range to gain a detailed understanding of terbium isotope production.To achieve this objective,the cross sections of the ^(151)Eu(α,n)^(154) Tb reactions were calculated up to 60 MeV using the TALYS computer code with 432 different combinations of optical model parameters,level density,and strength function models.The theoretical reaction cross-section results were compared with the experimental results in the literature.The best input parameters were determined using the Threshold Logic Unit method,and these parameters were used in all isotope production calculations.Once the optimal model combination was determined,the total activity production and isotopic fraction of ^(152) Tb and ^(155) Tb isotopes were calculated in detail for beam energies of 17–50 MeV,different irradiation times,and varying ^(151) Eu and ^(153) Eu target thicknesses.

文摘Based on the generalized reduced R-matrix theory,the R-matrix analysis code(RAC program)was used to analyze the experimental data of all the nuclear reaction channels related to the 5 He system.The current calculations provide accurate and reliable evaluation data and are in good agreement with the experimental data.In this study,self-consistent evaluation data for each reaction were obtained using multi-channel and multi-energy fitting.In particular,the error propagation theory of generalized least squares was used to determine the error of the evaluation data and the covariance matrix of the integral cross section.This R-matrix analysis for the 5 He system has three features.First,for the first time,the error in the evaluation data of the T(d,n)^(4)He reaction cross section and the covariance matrix of the integral cross section are provided.Second,we used only one set of R-matrix parameters to depict the reaction cross section of each reaction channel of the 5 He system for the entire energy region in our work.Third,in this evaluation,we considered some of the latest measured experimental data,especially after 2000.The T(d,n)^(4)He reaction cross section at 0.1 MeV and below was carefully studied.The effect of different energy levels in T(d,n)^(4)He was analyzed,with the energy levels 3/2^(+)making a major contribution to the cross section,and the role of the S-wave and P-wave from 3/2~-determines the lean forward trend of the angular distributions at 0.01–0.1 MeV.

文摘The effects of artificial aging(T6)on the creep resistance with tensile stresses in the range of 50−80 MPa at 175℃were investigated for an extruded Mg−1.22Al−0.31Ca−0.44Mn(wt.%)alloy.The Guinier-Preston(G.P.)zones primarily precipitate in the sample aged at 200℃for 1 h(T6-200℃/1h),while the Al_(2)Ca phases mainly precipitate in the sample aged at 275℃for 8 h(T6-275℃/8h).The T6-200℃/1h sample exhibits excellent creep resistance,with a steady-state creep rate one order of magnitude lower than that of the T6-275℃/8h sample.The abnormally high stress exponent(~8.2)observed in the T6-200℃/1h sample is associated with the power-law breakdown mechanism.TEM analysis illuminates that the creep mechanism for the T6-200℃/1h sample is cross-slip between basal and prismatic dislocations,while the T6-275℃/8h sample exhibits a mixed mechanism of dislocation cross-slip and climb.Compared with the Al_(2)Ca phase,the dense G.P.zones effectively impede dislocation climb and glide during the creep process,demonstrating superior creep resistance of the T6-200℃/1h sample.

文摘Foreign body classification on coal conveyor belts is a critical component of intelligent coal mining systems.Previous approaches have primarily utilized convolutional neural networks(CNNs)to effectively integrate spatial and semantic information.However,the performance of CNN-based methods remains limited in classification accuracy,primarily due to insufficient exploration of local image characteristics.Unlike CNNs,Vision Transformer(ViT)captures discriminative features by modeling relationships between local image patches.However,such methods typically require a large number of training samples to perform effectively.In the context of foreign body classification on coal conveyor belts,the limited availability of training samples hinders the full exploitation of Vision Transformer’s(ViT)capabilities.To address this issue,we propose an efficient approach,termed Key Part-level Attention Vision Transformer(KPA-ViT),which incorporates key local information into the transformer architecture to enrich the training information.It comprises three main components:a key-point detection module,a key local mining module,and an attention module.To extract key local regions,a key-point detection strategy is first employed to identify the positions of key points.Subsequently,the key local mining module extracts the relevant local features based on these detected points.Finally,an attention module composed of self-attention and cross-attention blocks is introduced to integrate global and key part-level information,thereby enhancing the model’s ability to learn discriminative features.Compared to recent transformer-based frameworks—such as ViT,Swin-Transformer,and EfficientViT—the proposed KPA-ViT achieves performance improvements of 9.3%,6.6%,and 2.8%,respectively,on the CUMT-BelT dataset,demonstrating its effectiveness.

文摘The single electron capture processes in Si^(3,4+)+He collisions have been investigated theoretically employing the two-center atomic orbital close-coupling method in the energy range 0.01-100 keV/u.Total and state-selective electron capture cross sections for the dominant and subdominant reaction channels are calculated and compared with the available experimental and theoretical data.For the total charge transfer cross sections,the present results show better agreements with the available experimental data than the other theoretical ones in the overlapping energy region for both collision systems.For the state-selective cross sections,the present results for 3s and 3p states are in general agreement with the previous MOCC results in the low energy region for both collision systems.Furthermore,the cross sections for electron captured to the 3d,4l and 5l(l=0,1,...,n-1)states of Si^(2+)and Si^(3+)ions are first provided in a broad energy region in our work.These results are useful for the investigations in astrophysics.The datasets presented in this paper,including the total and state-selective electron capture cross sections of Si^(3,4+)+He collisions in 0.01-100 ke V/u,are openly available at https://doi.org/10.57760/sciencedb.j00113.00257.
