In actual surveying and mapping, it is necessary not only to improve the accuracy of surveying and mapping, but also to further improve the efficiency of surveying and mapping. In recent years, UAV technology has developed rapidly, and UAV remote sensing mapping has also become a new surveying and mapping technology. It can use corresponding equipment to control UAVs and photographic equipment to obtain corresponding information. However, the UAV remote sensing mapping technology is still in the initial stage of development at this stage, and further research on practical problems needs to be enhanced when applied in basic surveying and mapping, so as to effectively promote the development of UAV remote sensing mapping technology.展开更多

Thus, a soil heating system for facility agriculture based on solar concentration technology was proposed, and a novel compound parabolic concentration photothermal and photoelectricity device(CTPV) equipped in the system was designed to address this problem. In accordance with the structure of the device, LightTools optical software was selected to analyze the variation trend of the light escape rate of the device with the diff erent incident angles. On the basis of the calculation results, an experimental test system was used to investigate the relationship of the air temperature of the inlet and the outlet, total output power of the solar cells, and photothermal and photoelectricity efficiency of the device with the operation time during a sunny day. Research results reveal that the light escape rate of the device is 5.36% at an incidence angle of 12°. At a velocity of 1.5 m/s, the maximum air temperature of the outlet can reach 55.6 ℃, and the total output power of the solar cells is 474.4 W. The variation of the total power of the solar cells is consistent with the simulation results. The maximum instantaneous heat collection and the maximum photothermal and photoelectricity efficiency of the device are 306 W and 60.4%, respectively, and the average efficiency is 44.9%. This study can serve as a reference for compound parabolic concentration technology applied for soil heating in facility agricultural soil heating systems.展开更多

Chemical composition analysis indicated the formation of Fe-C bonds by the deposition of carbon atoms on catalyst surface of Fe2O3 and increasing in C/O atomic ratio confirming CNF growing. These hybrid additives were distributed homogeneously through polyamide 6.6 (PA6.6) chains by high shear thermokinetic mixer in melt phase. Spectroscopic studies showed that the differences in the number of graphene layer in hybrid structures directly affected the crystalline behavior and dispersion state in polymer matrix. Flexural strength and flexural modulus of PA6.6 nanocomposites were improved up to 14.7% and 14% by the integration of 0.5 wt% CNF grown on multi-layer GO, respectively, whereas there was a significant loss in flexural properties of single-layer GO based nanocomposites. Also, the integration of 0.5 wt% multi-layer GO hybrid reinforcement in PA6.6 provided a significant increase in tensile modulus about 24%. Therefore, multi-layer GO with CNF increased the degree of crystallinity in nanocomposites by forming intercalated structure and acted as a nucleating agent causing the improvement in mechanical properties.展开更多

文摘As the key principle of precision farming,the distribution of fractional vegetation cover is the basis of crop management within the field serves.To estimate crop FVC rapidly at the farm scale,high temporal-spatial resolution imagery obtained by unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)was adopted.To verify the application potential of consumer-grade UAV RGB imagery in estimated FVC,blue-green characteristic vegetation index(TBVI)and red-green vegetation index(TRVI)were proposed in this study according to the differences of the gray value among cotton vegetation,soil and shadow in the field.First,two new constructed indices and several published indices were used to extract visible light images and generate greyscale images for each of the visible light vegetation indices.Then,the thresholds of cotton vegetation and non-vegetation pixels were established based on the vegetation index threshold method which combines support vector machine classification and vegetation index.Finally,the accuracy difference in vegetation information extraction between the newly constructed and several published indices was compared.The results show that the accuracy of the information extracted by TRVI is higher than that of subdivision index of other visible light(FVC extraction precision in the first bud stage of cotton:R2=0.832,RMSE=2.307,nRMSE=4.405%;FVC extraction precision in the bud stage of cotton:R2=0.981,RMSE=1.393,nRMSE=1.984%;FVC extraction precision in the flowering stage of cotton:R2=0.893,RMSE=2.101,nRMSE=2.422%;FVC extraction precision in the boll stage of cotton:R2=0.958,RMSE=1.850,nRMSE=2.050%).
