Because of the coupling between surface channel and SOFAR channel, sound propagation in the two-axis underwater channel is complex and so its calculations of acoustic fields are difficult. The beam-displacement ray-mode （BDRM） theory is a normal mode method for propagation modeling in the common horizontally stratified shallow water. We improve the theory, proposing a new method for computing the upper boundary reflection coefficient, and apply it to calculate the acoustic fields of two-axis underwater channel. Transmission losses in the two-axis underwater channel are calculated by the BDRM theory.

However, by searching in a wide range, it will take a very long searching time. Under extreme conditions, it will even fail to work. In this paper, we propose a novel roll compensation(RC) method for the low-cost TATSAs to achieve faster tracking even if when the antenna has no azimuth sensor. By analyzing the influence of roll axis on the system performance, details of the compensation method are derived. Simulation and measurement results indicate that the proposed RC method can effectively reduce the initial searching time for satellite communication. In addition, tracking along with the ellipse path with the RC method provides the highest tracking efficiency.展开更多

In this paper, inspired by recent experiments of cavity-assisted Raman transitions, we realize a two-axis spin Hamiltonian H = q（J_x^2＋ χJ_y^2） ＋ ω_0J_z in two cavities. This realized Hamiltonian has a distinct property that all parameters can be tuned independently. For proper parameters, the well-studied one- and two-axis twisting Hamiltonians are recovered, and the scaling of N^（-1） of the maximal squeezing factor can occur naturally. On the other hand, in the two-axis twisting Hamiltonian, spin squeezing is usually reduced when increasing the atomic resonant frequency ω_0. Surprisingly, we find that by combining with the dimensionless parameter χ（-1）, this atomic resonant frequency ω_0 can enhance spin squeezing greatly. These results are beneficial for achieving the required spin squeezing in experiments.展开更多

Sensorless control reduces mechanical and circuit complexity through hardware simplification, but inherently estimates only the electrical instead of mechanical rotor position information, thus remaining constrained in robot joint control applications. Based on the previously proposed dual-gap dualpole composite machine(DDCM), this paper systematically analyzes the causes of mechanical position estimation errors and proposes a correction method that utilizes a correction coefficient to reduce these errors and enhance estimation accuracy. Furthermore, this paper derives the applicability constraints of the proposed scheme, demonstrating that its requirements for electrical angle position errors are not stringent, thus enabling wide applicability in conventional sensorless control scenarios. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by conducting experiments on a 0.75 kW prototype.展开更多

文摘Null compensation interferometry is the primary testing method for the manufacture of ultra-high-precision aspheric mirrors.The crosstalk fringes generated by stray light in interferometry can affect accuracy and potentially prevent the testing from proceeding normally.Position errors include the decenter error,tilt error,and distance error.During the testing process,position errors will impact the testing accuracy and the crosstalk fringes generated by stray light.To determine the specific impact of position errors,we use the concept of Hindle shell testing of a convex aspheric mirror,and propose the simulation method of crosstalk fringes in null compensation interferometry.We also propose evaluation indices of crosstalk fringes in interferometry and simulate the influence of position errors on the crosstalk fringes.This work aims to help improve the design of compensation interferometry schemes,enhance the feasibility of the design,reduce engineering risks,and improve efficiency.
文摘Sunflower leaf photosynthesis strongly depends on the leaf position in the plant stem conditioning,which directly affects other physiological processes.Therefore,a study of the leaf’s physiological status regarding the leaf position in the stem was performed on sunflowers in the flowering stage.Eight differently positioned leaves were investigated,starting with the youngest leaf on the top of the stem to the leaves of the stem bottom,assigned as the oldest senescent leaves.According to chlorophyll fluorescence(ChlF)parameters connected to photosystem II(PSII)processes,significant changes in PSII functioning occurred only in the senescent leaves,while photosystem I(PSI)describing parameters showed a linear decrease with leaf age,i.e.,position on the stem.The antioxidative status of the leaves was dynamic,as stress indicators(lipid peroxidation and hydrogen peroxide content)fluctuated regarding leaf position on the stem,but no link was found between the activities of antioxidative enzymes and oxidative stress indicators.Linear decrease trend of secondary metabolites(mainly phenolic compounds)correlated with antioxidant activity,except for some phenolic acids(caffeic and ferulic acid),which increased in senescent leaves.The most changes in the physiological status of the leaves were confirmed in senescent leaves,which stand out the importance of younger leaves in maintaining the plant’s vitality after flowering,which is the most important for sunflower yield.

文摘This study presents a novel analytical algorithm for solving the forward position problem of a triangular platform Stewart-type parallel robot(STPR).By introducing a virtual chain and leveraging tetrahedral geometric principles,the proposed method derives analytical solutions for the position and orientation of the moving platform.The algorithm systematically addresses the nonlinearity inherent in the kinematic equations of parallel mechanisms,providing explicit expressions for the coordinates of key moving attachment points.Furthermore,the methodology is extended to general triangular platform STPRs with non-coplanar fixed attachments.Numerical validation through virtual experiments confirms the accuracy of the solutions,demonstrating that the mechanism admits eight distinct configurations for a given set of limb lengths.The results align with established kinematic principles and offer a computationally efficient alternative to iterative analytical approaches,contributing to the advancement of precision control in parallel robotic systems.

文摘Objectives A systematic review and network meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of different childbirth positions in reducing the duration of the second stage of labor,providing evidence-based insights for obstetric institutions to guide interventions related to childbirth positions.Methods A comprehensive literature search was conducted in databases,including PubMed,Web of Science,the Cochrane Library,Embase,Wanfang Databases,China National Knowledge Infrastructure Databases(CNKI),China Science and Technology Journal Database(CSTJ),and China Biology Medicine disc(CBMdisc)to identify studies on the effectiveness of different childbirth positions in reducing the duration of the second stage of labor.The search included randomized controlled trials published from database inception to September 30,2024.The Cochrane risk-of-bias tool was used to assess the quality of the studies.Two independent reviewers screened the literature,extracted data,and evaluated study quality.Subsequently,a network meta-analysis was performed using STATA software.The study protocol has been registered in PROSPERO(CRD42023428217).Results This study analyzed data from 25 randomized controlled trials involving 9,844 women.The findings indicated that in comparison to lithotomy position,free position(MD=20.53,95%CI[11.38,29.68])and upright position(MD=−24.13,95%CI[−42.94,-5.32])were found to be superior in reducing the duration of the second stage of labor.Free position outperformed kneeling position(MD=21.48,95%CI[4.67,38.28])and squatting position(MD=23.43,95%CI[1.88,44.97]);upright position was superior to kneeling position(MD=−25.08,95%CI[−46.93,−3.22]);semirecumbent position surpassed squatting position(MD=19.71,95%CI[2.05,37.38]);and upright position was also superior to squatting position(MD=−27.03,95%CI[−51.48,−2.57]).According to the surface under the cumulative ranking curve(SUCRA),the upright position emerged as the most effective for reducing the duration of the second stage of labor(87.4%),followed by free position(81.1%),semirecumbent position(70.0%),and lateral position(62.3%).Conclusion These findings offer valuable insights for midwifery practice and help inform future research directions.Considering the limitations of this review,more larger-scale,multicenter randomized controlled trials are warranted to further evaluate the relative effectiveness of different childbirth positions in reducing the duration of the second stage of labor.

文摘Four benzocoumarin-based two-photon fluorescent probes(BH1-BH4)are proposed for ra-tiometric detection of hypochlorous acid(HClO)and their two-photon sensing perfor-mance are evaluated by means of time-dependent density func-tional theory and quadratic re-sponse theory.The effects of benzene-fused position on Stokes shift,fluorescence quantum yield and two-photon absorption are discussed comprehensively.The results show that fusing a benzene ring in coumarin can enhance Stokes shift efficiently.The benzene-fused position has important effects on these photophysical properties.The benzo[g]coumarins(BH1)and benzo[f]coumarins(BH2)derivatives have larger Stokes shifts in comparison with benzo[h]coumarins(BH3)and dihydrophenazine(BH4)derivatives.The two-photon absorp-tion of benzo[f]coumarins(BH2)derivative is much smaller than those of other benzo-coumarins derivatives.The large Stokes shift and increased two-photon action cross section can be achieved simultaneously in the dihydrophenazine(BH4)derivative.Therefore,the de-signed BH4 is expected to have superior performance for the ratiometric detection of HClO.To explore the reasons behind these effects,the intramolecular charge transfer degrees are il-lustrated quantitatively by plotting the hole-electron isosurface map,and the relation be-tween charge transfer and Stokes shift is revealed.A two-state model analysis is employed to understand two-photon absorption ability.Moreover,the fluorescence near-quenching mecha-nism of the product molecules B1 and B3 is explained by analyzing reorganization energy and Huang-Rhys factor,as well as related normal mode.Our research could contribute to the effi-cient design of ratiometric two-photon fluorescent probes with large Stokes shift and signifi-cant two-photon action cross section.
文摘Forest ecosystems can be characterized by a set of catenas arranged along the slope in mountainous areas as these affect microhabitat features,which in turn influence soil properties.Heretofore,few studies have examined how topographic variables affect soil properties and quality in semiarid regions.This study aimed to provide important insights into how catena position and shape influence soil properties,soil quality,and their interrelationships in a semiarid protected oak forest in western Iran.Basic soil properties were measured in the laboratory.In addition,the soil quality index(SQI)was calculated at different topographic positions along both convex(Λ-shaped)and concave(V-shaped)catenas at two soil depths(0-15 and 15-30 cm).The findings indicated that soil organic carbon and total nitrogen declined in the lower depth in both V-andΛ-shaped catenas and at all catena positions.The lowest porosity was observed in the lower depth at toeslope positions(TS)of both catenas.Substrate-induced respiration(SIR),microbial biomass carbon(MBC),and basal respiration(BR)were higher in the upper depths at TS positions on V-shaped catenas than onΛ-shaped catenas.These biological indices were consistently higher in the upper depths than in the lower depths across all positions of both catenas.SQI had the highest values at TS positions on both catenas and in the upper depths across all positions.Pearson correlations between soil properties indicated that SQI was most strongly and positively correlated with biological properties in both catenas.The nutrient levels,microbial activity,and soil porosity in both catena shapes and at both soil depths displayed a relatively downward trend with increasing elevation from toeslope to summit positions.The results showed that catena topographic sequence shape and position affected most of the soil properties,providing evidence of the important role of topography in creating pedodiversity in oak forest ecosystems.
