The results show that the average trend of the number of annual thunderstorm days is descending obviously, and there are thunderstorms in all seasons, in which warm post-midday thunderstorms have taken up the most part, and high frequency is found from May to September, and the starting and ending dates of thunderstorms have a great annual discrepancy. The vegetation structure has been improved along with the reduction of rice fields and the area increment of sugarcane and fruits planting, which results in the decrease of the number of thunderstorm days; the change in the characteristics of winter spare fields, which is caused by the planting of vegetables, limits the formation of thunderstorms in early winter and late spring. Meanwhile, the area adjustment of peanut planting has little influence on the variation of thunderstorm days. The adjustment of principal crop distribution, such as rice, sugarcane, fruits and vegetables, may have obvious influence on the formation of thunderstorms, and sugarcane has the largest effect, followed in turn by rice, vegetables and fruits, and the adjustment of crop distribution has little influence on the starting and ending dates of thunderstorms.展开更多

The obtained results can be used to identify the energy difference of the ground and first excited states in a Josephson junction for any bias current.展开更多

The analysis shows that the tidal current pattern in the southwestern Taiwan Strait is primarily semi-diurnal and influenced significantly by shallow water constituents. The spatial distribution of tidal current ellipses of M2 is probably affected by the interaction between two different systems of tide wave, one from the northern mouth of Taiwan Strait and the other from the Bashi Channel. The directions of the major axes of M2 tidal current ellipses coincide roughly with the axis of the Taiwan Strait. The spatial distribution of the magnitudes of the probable maximum current velocity(PMCS) shows gradual increase of the velocity from northeast to southwest, which is in accordance with the spatial distribution of the measured maximum current velocity(MMCS). The directions of the residual currents are in accordance with the direction of the prevailing monsoon wind at the Taiwan Strait and the direction of the Taiwan warm current during summer. The bathymetry also shows a significant effect on the spatial distribution characteristics of tidal currents.展开更多

TaSAP1-A1, one of the Triticum aestivum SAP1 (TaSAP1) members located on wheat chromosome 7A was isolated for polymorphism analysis. HaplII of TaSAP1-A1 was found significantly associated with thousand-grain weight (TGW) in multiple environments. In this study, HaplII also made a positive contribution to TGW in Population 2. The distribution of TaSAP1-A1 HapIII was tracked among varieties released in different years and geographical environments of China. The frequency of HapIII showed an increasing trend during the breeding process in two different populations. The ItapIII was gradually selected and applied from 6.36% in landraces to 13.50% in modem varieties. These results exhibited that TaSAP1-A1 HapIII was positively selected during wheat breeding, which is beneficial for grain-yield improvement. The preferred HapIIl was initially selected and applied in the higher latitude areas of China in accord with the long day season and longer grain filling stage in these areas. Moreover, the frequency of HaplII in recent modem varieties was still quite low (19.29-26.67%). It indicated a high application potential of TaSAP1-A 1 HapIII for improving grain yield in wheat breeding.展开更多

Their spatial-temporal characteristics are analyzed. The results indicate that the lowest temperatures of RELTE, together with the frequency distribution of the geometric latitude center, exhibit a double-peak feature. The RELTE frequently happen near the geometric area of 30°N and 42°N before the mid-1980s, but shifted afterwards to 30°N. During 1960-2009, the frequency~ intensity, and the maximum impacted area of RELTE show overall decreasing trends. Due to the contribution of RELTE, with long duratioh and large spatial range, which account for 10% of the total RELTE, there is a significant turning point in the late 1980s. A change to a much more steady state after the late 1990s is identified. In addition, the integrated indices of RELTE are classified and analyzed.展开更多

Meanwhile, the area adjustment of peanut planting has little influence on the variation of thunderstorm days. The adjustment of principal crop distribution, such as rice, sugarcane, fruits and vegetables, may have obvious influence on the formation of thunderstorms, and sugarcane has the largest effect, followed in turn by rice, vegetables and fruits, and the adjustment of crop distribution has little influence on the starting and ending dates of thunderstorms.

文摘Bulk power systems show increasingly significant frequency spatial distribution characteristics(FSDCs),leading to a huge difference in the frequency response between regions.Existing uniform-frequency models based on analytical methods are no longer applicable.This paper develops a reduced-order bus frequency response(BFR)model to preserve the FSDC and describe the frequency response of all buses.Its mathematical equation is proved to be isomorphic to the forced vibration of a mass-spring-damper system,and the closed-form solution(CFS)of the BFR model is derived by the modal analysis method and forced decoupling method in vibration mechanics.The correla tion between its mathematical equation and the state equation for small-signal stability analysis is discussed,and related pa rameters in the CFS are defined by the eigen-analysis method without any additional devices or tools.Case studies show that the proposed reduced-order BFR model and its CFS can im prove the solution accuracy while keeping the solution speed within milliseconds,which can preserve the significant FSDC of bulk power systems and represent a normalized mathematical description of distinct-frequency models.
文摘The dynamic frequency control processes and economic operations of the large-scale power grids are separately applied.However,for the small inertia microgrids(MGs),the operating conditions tend to be more volatile due to relatively more uncontrollable entities being integrated.Hence,the frequency control solution of MGs should take the economic operation of MGs at a time-scale that is much shorter than the traditional economic dispatch of the large power grids.To this end,this paper proposes a two-layer coordinated frequency control strategy for MGs with enhanced economic operation consideration.For the upper optimal power-sharing layer,the distributed bisection algorithm is applied to obtain the optimal power sharing among heterogeneous resources.For the lower control layer,an autonomous control strategy that integrates both primary control and secondary control reference is applied by adopting the event-trigger mechanism.The proposed control approach can realize integrated active power control of MGs by simultaneously taking primary control,secondary control,and economic operation into consideration.Simulation studies with a heterogeneous resources-powered MG demonstrate its effectiveness.

文摘Islanded microgrids(IMGs)offer a viable and efficient energy self-sustaining solution for distributed resources in remote areas.While without utility grid support,the frequency of IMG is susceptible to mismatches between demand and generation.Moreover,IMGs encounter uncertain and nonlinear load disturbances together with system parameter perturbation,which further compromises frequency stability.To this aim,this paper proposes a robust multi-virtual synchronous generators(multi-VSGs)coordinated control strategy for distributed secondary frequency regulation(DSFR)in IMGs,which exhibits minimal model dependency and avoids reliance on global information.Two critical methods are developed:(1)a robust VSG control framework that incorporates the linear active disturbance rejection control(LADRC)technique,which enables the estimation and effective elimination of uncertain load disturbances and system's parameter perturbations;(2)a novel secondorder consensus algorithm-based control law for robust secondary frequency regulation,which is featured with proper power sharing among different participants,suppressed power oscillation caused by response disparities,and reduced reliance on complex communication system.Building on methods(1)and(2),a novel multi-VSGs coordinated control strategy is proposed,providing a robust solution for IMG's frequency restoration,and its dynamic characteristics are explored in detail.The correctness and effectiveness of the proposal are verified by both simulation and the hardware-in-the-loop(HIL)experiment results across typical scenarios.

文摘Stress-associated protein (SAP) has functions in maintaining plant cell elongation, embryo development and response to abiotic stresses. TaSAP1-A1, one of the Triticum aestivum SAP1 (TaSAP1) members located on wheat chromosome 7A was isolated for polymorphism analysis. HaplII of TaSAP1-A1 was found significantly associated with thousand-grain weight (TGW) in multiple environments. In this study, HaplII also made a positive contribution to TGW in Population 2. The distribution of TaSAP1-A1 HapIII was tracked among varieties released in different years and geographical environments of China. The frequency of HapIII showed an increasing trend during the breeding process in two different populations. The ItapIII was gradually selected and applied from 6.36% in landraces to 13.50% in modem varieties. These results exhibited that TaSAP1-A1 HapIII was positively selected during wheat breeding, which is beneficial for grain-yield improvement. The preferred HapIIl was initially selected and applied in the higher latitude areas of China in accord with the long day season and longer grain filling stage in these areas. Moreover, the frequency of HaplII in recent modem varieties was still quite low (19.29-26.67%). It indicated a high application potential of TaSAP1-A 1 HapIII for improving grain yield in wheat breeding.
文摘In order to analyze the composition and frequency distribution of acceleration signal in the process of projectile penetrating,this paper uses wavelet transform to decompose penetration acceleration signal to get the distribution of penetration acceleration signal in different frequency bands.Compared with the ideal acceleration signal curve and its characteristics,it can be concluded that the frequency range of the acceleration signal in the axis of the projectile and the vibration frequency range of the projectile are 31.25-62.5kHz and 62.5-125 kHz,respectively.Finally,the penetration acceleration signal curve is obtained by Simulink.

文摘An inconsecutive high frequency distribution with a"sandwich structure"pattern for high temperature warm water warmer than 29℃ in the western Pacific warm pool(WPWP) was found using Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission(TRMM) sea surface temperature(SST) data,a relatively high resolution data for space.This phenomenon only shows up in boreal summer(June to September),and becomes obvious when WPWP SST is higher than 29℃.As observed,East Asian summer monsoon(EASM) impinges on Philippine Islands in July,which has an important impact on the formation and maintenance of the "sandwich structure".Winds affect the distribution of SST in two ways:one by increasing the local latent heat flux and the other by transporting cold water towards the southeast of Philippine Islands.

文摘An objective identification technique is used to detect regional extreme low temperature events (RELTE) in China during 1960-2009. Their spatial-temporal characteristics are analyzed. The results indicate that the lowest temperatures of RELTE, together with the frequency distribution of the geometric latitude center, exhibit a double-peak feature. The RELTE frequently happen near the geometric area of 30°N and 42°N before the mid-1980s, but shifted afterwards to 30°N. During 1960-2009, the frequency~ intensity, and the maximum impacted area of RELTE show overall decreasing trends. Due to the contribution of RELTE, with long duratioh and large spatial range, which account for 10% of the total RELTE, there is a significant turning point in the late 1980s. A change to a much more steady state after the late 1990s is identified. In addition, the integrated indices of RELTE are classified and analyzed.
