Show Abstract ( 407 )
Improving the yield is at the crux of rice (Oryza sativa L.) breeding. In order to monitor the yield of rice quickly, the correlation between chlorophyll relative content (SPAD) of functional leaves and yield of rice at different growth stages was performed to determine the optimum growth period for measuring SPAD value. The experiments of early rice and later rice were conducted on two rice varieties treated with different nitrogen fertilizer at the Zhongluotan base of Guangdong Academy of Agricultural Sciences. The results showed that the SPAD values of different rice varieties decreased with the growth process,but increased with the increase of nitrogen fertilizer level. With the increase of nitrogen fertilizer dosage, rice yield increased and then tended to remain stable, as well as the yield and its components of different nitrogen fertilizer treatments were significantly different in early and later rice (P<0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between SPAD value and yield of early and later rice functional leaves at the tillering stage (P<0.05), and both had the best fit. Therefore, the optimal effect is to predict rice yield at tillering stage. The results provide reference and basis for early prediction of rice yield under field conditions.

Journal . 2021, 34 (1): 24-30.
PDF (2846KB) ( 774 )
Show Abstract ( 390 )
This paper proposes an optimized calculation method for linear polymers with repeating units. The quantum chemistry calculation of CTS and CM-CTS is used as an example to exhibit the above optimization method by GaussView 6.0 software. The molecular structures, HOMO energy levels, electronic state density, atomic charge distribution, orbital coefficients, interactive group spacing, and chain flexibility have been discussed with scale and corrosion inhibition properties. The results indicate that CTS and CM-CTS are flexible molecules which are easily adsorbed by calcite due to its hydroxyl interaction with calcite facet. Compared with CTS, CM-CTS has a close scale inhibition and a better water solubility which expands the application of CM-CTS in water scale inhibition.

Show Abstract ( 395 )
A cobalt-60 irradiation device、a Shore hardness tester and a microcomputer were used to investigate the effects of Yttrium oxide (Y2O3), Cerium oxide (CeO2) and Gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3) on the irradiation resistance of RRT silicone rubber. The controlled electronic universal test was used,and the properties of silicone rubber was characterized, The hardness, tensile strength, tear strength, tear elongation, and property of room temperature vulcanized silicone rubber were discussed. The results showed that a small amount of rare earth oxides could enhance the mechanical properties of room temperature vulcanized silicone rubber. The change of tensile strength, tear elongation and breaking force of RTV silicone rubber containing rare earth oxide before and after irradiation is less than that of RTV silicone rubber without irradiation additive. In addition, adding CeO2 silicone rubber had the best radiation resistance. Therefore, the rare earth oxide as a radiation resistant additive had a significant enhancement and stabilization effect on the radiation resistance of room temperature vulcanized silicone rubber.

It is necessary to master the combustion characteristics and dynamic behavior of the mixed raw materials (paper sludge mixed with coal/biomass). Through thermogravimetric experiments and distributed activation energy model method, the co-combustion characteristics and kinetic parameters of paper sludge and mixed coal/bagasse at different mixing ratios, at 10 ℃/min heating rate, under 20% oxygen /80% nitrogen atmosphere were studied. The results is as follows: 1) With the increasing of mixed coal ratio, the temperature range of the combustion process continued to narrow. The comprehensive combustion characteristic index increased first and then decreased again increased. The average activation energy increased to 219.41 kJ/mol (10Z90H), then fell. Within the scope of the low temperature, the mixing of sludge and the mixed coal could promote the reduction of mass residual rate of materials. The blend with high proportion of mixed coal could inhibit the reaction at high temperature stage. Above all, 90Z10H was the best mixing ratio of sludge and mixed coal. 2) With the increase of bagasse ratio, the ignition temperature first increased and then decreased, the burnout temperature kept dropping, the comprehensive combustion characteristic index increased continually and activation energy increased from 190.97 kJ/mol to 215.24 kJ/mol. In the low temperature stage, there was no obvious interaction between the two. To sum up, 50Z50Z was the optimal mixing ratio of sludge and bagasse.

Show Abstract ( 395 )
The existence of multiple periodic solutions for a class of delayed Duffing-type equations was studied by using generalized Poincaré-Birkhoff fixed point theorem. Firstly, a series of constraints were added to a class of delayed Duffing-type equations f, and a Poincaré mapping was defined. By proving that the mapping was “torsional”, it was concluded that the mapping had at least two fixed points in the region. At last, the conclusion that the delayed Duffing equation f had an infinite number of periodic solutions under the constraints was proved.
