Phosphorus transport with runoff of simulated rainfall from purple-soil cropland of different surface conditions

We investigated the patterns of phosphorus transport from purple-soil cropland of 5° and 10° slopes with bare and vegetated surfaces, respectively. Each type of land was tested under a simulated moderate rainfall of 0.33 mm/min, a downfall of 0.90 mm/min, and a rainstorm of 1.86 mm/min. Runoff dynamics and changes in the export amount of phosphorus are influenced by the rainfall intensity, the slope and surface conditions of cropland. The vegetation diverts rain water from the surface into soil and helps the formation of a subsurface runoff, but has little influence on runoff process at the same sloping degree. Vegetated soil has a smaller phosphorous loss, particularly much less in the particulate form. A heavier rainfall flushes away more phosphorous. Rainwater percolating soil carries more dissolved phosphorous than particulate phosphorous. Understanding the patterns of phosphorous transport under various conditions from purple soil in the middle of Sichuan basin is helpful for developing countermeasures against non-point-source pollution resulting in the eutrophication of water bodies in this region that could, if not controlled properly, deteriorate the water quality of the Three Gorges Reservoir.     

Numerical Analysis on Ventilating and Air Conditioning Scheme of Shenyang Subway Station

Different cities have different climate conditions and outdoor temperature and humidity, so the scheme of an environment control in subway should be analyzed by considering objective conditions, project cost and operating status. In this paper, a physical and mathematical model is built according to the design of Shenyang subway (line 1), the boundary conditions of the model are defined by the design and experiments, the numerical analysis of ventilating scheme and air conditioning scheme is introduced individually, and the temperature field and air flow field of the two schemes are compared, so that the feasibility of using a ventilating scheme in subway of northeast cities is discussed. Considering comfort and economy, it can be concluded that mechanical ventilation is feasible in subway of northeast cities because the air temperature there is not very high in summer.     

美国东部旱灾

There has been a severe lack of rain and snow on the East Coast of the United States. The amount of rain and snow that has fallen in the states from Maine (缅因州) to Florida has been far below normal. The lack rain or snow is called a drought. The East Coast states are suffering an unusual drought this winter. Some areasreceived only a small percentage of the rain they normally receive. And the drought has continued into the winter. Normally, drought conditions happen during hot summer weather. Ground water supplies usually increase in the winter and decrease in the spring and summer. Some officials worry     

Optimizing neural networks by genetic algorithms for predicting particulate matter concentration in summer in Beijing

We developed and tested an improved neural network to predict the average concentration of PM10 （particulate matter with diameter smaller than 10 μm） several hours in advance in summer in Beijing. A genetic algorithm optimization procedure for optimizing initial weights and thresholds of the neural network was also evaluated. This research was based upon the PM10 data from seven monitoring sites in Beijing urban region and meteorological observation data, which were recorded every 3 h during summer of 2002. Two neural network models were developed. Model I was built for predicting PM10 concentrations 3 h in advance while Model II for one day in advance. The predictions of both models were found to be consistent with observations. Percent errors in forecasting the numerical value were about 20%. This brings us to the conclusion that short-term fluctuations of PM10 concentrations in Beijing urban region in summer are to a large extent driven by meteorological conditions. Moreover, the predicted results of Model II were compared with the ones provided by the Models-3 Community Multiscale Air Quality （CMAQ） modeling system. The mean relative errors of both models were 0.21 and 0.26, respectively. The performance of the neural network model was similar to numerical models, when applied to short-time prediction of PM10 concentration.     

Modeling and Simulation of Photoelectronic Lambda Bipolar Transistor

Based on the region model of lambda bipolar transistor （ LBT）, a dividing region theory model of PLBT is set up.simulated and verified. Firstly, the principal operations of different kinds of photoelectronic lambda bipolar transistor ,（ PLBT） are characterized by a simple circuit model. Through mathematical analysis of the equivalent circuit, the typical characteristics curve is divided into positive resistance, peak, negative resistance and cutoff regions. Secondly. by analyzing and simulating this model, the ratio of MOSFET width to channel length, threshold voltage and common emitter gain are discovered as the main structure parameters that determine the characteristic curves of PLBT. And peak region width, peak current value, negative resistance value and valley voltage value of PLBT can be changed conveniently according to the actual demands by modifying these parameters. Finally comparisons of the characteristics of the fabricated devices and the simulation results are made, which show that the analytical results are in agreement with the observed devices characteristics.     

Distribution characteristics of minerals and elements in chromite ore processing residue

In this paper,environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) is applied to characterizing the mineral and element distribution of chromite ore processing residue (COPR).The test results show that Cr-bearing brownmillerite occurs in the rim of COPR particle,while hydroandradite with Cr(Ⅵ) in its structure presents inside the COPR particle.Periclase and calcite occur in the interstitial area.Element analyses show that Ca,Fe and Al are distributed throughout the COPR particle,and Mg exists mostly in the interstitial area or on the particle surface.A lower content of Cr is evenly distributed in the COPR particle,while slightly higher concentration of Cr occurs inside the particle.It is suggested that it will take a relatively longer time for Cr to migrate out of COPR,especially for hexavalent chromium,so the leaching time and the particle size may be two important factors to affect the release of Cr(Ⅵ).     

The Limits of Cultural Translatability in Yang Xianyi’s Translation of Poems in A DRM

Poems are the products of national culture, and A Dream of Red Mansions (A DRM) is the collection of Chinese culture in the era when the novel was written, so poems in A DRM express a wealth of cultural messages. According to the Limits of Translatability raised by Catford in 1965, cultural untranslatability occurs when a relevant situational feature for the SL text is absent in the TL. So this paper aims to find problems of cultranslation of poems in A DRM, and tries to further restrict cultural untranslatability by applying compensation strategies.

Finite Element Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Plate Impacted by Block

A new concept of structurally dissipating rock-shed (SDR) was developed by the lab of Tonello IC and LOCIE-ESIGEC (France). To decide the dimension of the plate used in SDR, an ANSYS model which could simulate the impact of rock in the centre of the plate was established by Fabien Delhomme. By using this model, some finite element analyses are carried out in the present paper. Firstly, a plate impacted by a block is numerically simulated, the numerical results obtained from different mesh sizes are compared and the accuracy of the finite element model is verified. Then, the dynamic response of the plate impacted at the boundary and in the medium part is computed. By analyzing the stress in rebar, the most dangerous region of impact of plate was found. For a rectangular plate, the most dangerous region is at the corner of the plate when a block drops in. Finally, the whole deformation process of the plate under dropping block was simulated and a simplified definition (effect zone) to describe the deformation process in different positions of plate was given. From this study, it is found that the impact only affects heavily within the effect zone.

Water and heat transport in hilly red soil of southern China： II. Modeling and simulation

INTRODUCTION It is recognized that the transfer of soil moistureand heat occur simultaneously and are interrelated.Since the 1950s, many models have been developed,based on two nonisothermal water-heat coupledmodels by Philip and de Vries (1957) and Taylor andLary (1964), respectively. In China, some researcheson modeling coupled transfer of soil moisture andheat have also been conducted on the arid soils innorthern China (Kang et al., 1993; Guo and Li, 1997;Hu et al., 1992; …     

Water and heat transport in hilly red soil of southern China: Ⅱ. Modeling and simulation

Simulation models of heat and water transport have not been rigorously tested for the red soils of southern China.Based on the theory of nonisothermal water-heat coupled transfer, a simulation model, programmed in Visual Basic 6.0, was developed to predict the coupled transfer of water and heat in hilly red soil. A series of soil column experiments for soil water and heat transfer, including soil columns with closed and evaporating top ends, were used to test the simulation model. Results showed that in the closed columns, the temporal and spatial distribution of moisture and heat could be very well predicted by the model,while in the evaporating columns, the simulated soil water contents were somewhat different from the observed ones. In the heat flow equation by Taylor and Lary (1964), the effect of soil water evaporation on the heat flow is not involved, which may be the main reason for the differences between simulated and observed results. The predicted temperatures were not in agreement with the observed one with thermal conductivities calculated by de Vries and Wierenga equations, so that it is suggested that Kh, soil heat conductivity, be multiplied by 8.0 for the first 6.5 h and by 1.2 later on. Sensitivity analysis of soil water and heat coefficients showed that the saturated hydraulic conductivity, Ks, and the water diffusivity, D(θ), had great effects on soil water transport; the variation of soil porosity led to the difference of soil thermal properties, and accordingly changed temperature redistribution,which would affect water redistribution.

Simplification and Experimental Verification for Temperature and Humidity Field Coupling Model of Conservatory Soil

Based on the surface energy balance model which is widely used abroad, a temperature and humidity field coupling model of conservatory soil without crop vegetation in full illumination was established. Considering the relatively closed environment in conservatory, weak solar radiation and little surface evaporation of soil, the daily variation of water content in different soil layers may be neglected, then the temperature and humidity field coupling model was simplified to a one-dimensional thermal diffusion model. The simplified model and the temperature and humidity field coupling model adopted the same computational method of soil physical parameters and discrete format of heat diffusion differential equations, and were applied to the continuous simulation of temperature field in conservatory soil without crop vegetation in full illumination. Through the comparison between simulation results and experimental data, the precision of the simplified model was verified. The typical rule of soil heat flux variation in a 24 h cycle was also obtained.

Numerical investigation on the phase change of water-saturated porous media with thermosyphon

Numerical investigations were carried out to determine the coupled heat transfer of water-saturated porous media with a two-phase closed thermosyphon for soil freezing, and to examine the characteristics of the freezing heat transfer in the water-saturated porous media. The whole control volume includes the thermosyphon and the porous media. The two-dimensional governing equations for the water-saturated porous media are used. The conjugation of heat transfer between the thermosyphon and porous media is reflected through thermal balance between the thermosyphon and the porous media. The finite-difference method was used to solve the two-dimensional goverming equation, for the water-saturated porous media and the heat transfer characteristics of the thermosyphon, obtain the flow fields and the temperature distributions in the soil. This paper deals mainly with the effect of some factors (such as soil properties, climate and thermosyphon dimensions) on the heat transfer rate of the thermosyphon and the growth of the freezing front. The predictions of the present study agree well with the measured data.
