The correlation between the fluctuations of transient engine speed and the combustion nonuniformity of the six cylinders were analyzed. The results indicated that a wave peak of transient engine speed emerges at the point between the two peaks of cylinder pressure of two adjacent fired cylinders. And, the more the output of positive work is in one cylinder, the larger the subsequent peak value of fluctuant engine speed is. When the mean engine speed is constant, the higher the load is, the larger the fluctuation ratio of engine speed is. However, when the load is same, the fluctuation ratio is independent to the mean engine speed.

The influences of temperature on the gas permeability coefficient and gas permeability coefficient ratio were analyzed. The results suggested that the gas permeability coefficients of films increases with temperature; as the temperature increased, the gas permeability coefficient ratio of LDPE significantly increases, while the gas permeability coefficient ratio of PVC shows different changing trends at the experimental temperature. The relationship between permeability coefficients and temperature well accords with Arrhenius equation, and a linear relationship lies between nature logarithmic of gas permeability coefficient and the reciprocal of temperature.

The algorithm broke the system down into two nonlinear time-varying systems and finally realized the global asymptotic stability of the control system using cascade control method and state derivative feedback control method. Furthermore, the noise problem of state estimation was solved successfully by using a Kalman filter, which improved the localization precision and enhanced the control effectiveness. The designed control algorithm is of strong robustness and generality for kinematics model of other wheeled mobile robots. Computer simulation results showed that the system can be stable in a short time which verifies its effectiveness.

The multiunit catalyst which was formed with copper-based catalyst (named CNZ1) and aluminium/zinc based molecular sieve (named HZSM5) by means of mechanical mixing, was used. The parameters such as flow rate of reactants including water steam and DME, the reaction temperature as well as the catalyst amount influence on the reforming performance were investigated. Results show that under normal pressure, when DME flow rate increases, the yield of hydrogen increases at the beginning and then decreases. At the range from 250°C to 500°C, the production rate of hydrogen increases with the increasing of temperature, and the maximum conversion rate of DME almost reaches 100%; the volume fraction of carbon monoxide decreases as the reaction temperature rises; although larger amount of catalyst has no influences on hydrogen production rate under the test conditions, it can improve effectively the conversion rate of DME.

Since they are only relative to sizes and shapes of link, these units can be programmed with link drawing subprograms together. Using the effect factors, the units were combined together to build Jacobian matrix and differentiation Jacobian matrix of whole mechanism, and a new automated modeling approach to analyzing planar linkages motion was gotten. This paper also discussed general method analyzing closed loops in complex linkages, as well as algorithm for automated modeling and kinematic analysis. Programming the kinematic analysis and testing with many planar linkages showed that the approach is suitable for automated solving kinematics of complex mechanism due to its modular property.

DE has exhibited good performance on optimization. However, for the high dimension and perplexed function, the algorithm is apt to fall into premature convergence, its performance is strongly influenced by the value of each strategy parameter including scale factor. Therefore, a modified differential evolution algorithm (MDE) was proposed to solve the optimization problems. First, the scale factor was randomly initialized and calculated by chaos each generation, which decreases the participation of user and balances the convergency speed and global optimal capability. Next, disaster factor was introduced to eliminate the individual of a small probability, along with a new individual generating, which can increase the diversity of population and global optimal capability. Simulated results and engineering optimization design example showed that MDE outperforms standard DE in global optimal capability.

Proximate analysis was carried out to show component differences between AHR and the char. The crystal structure and morphology of char samples were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and were analyzed to explain changes of CO2 gasification reactivity. The CO2 gasification reactivity of acid hydrolysis residue was studied in the view of the rate of weight loss by a thermal gravimetric analyzer. The results showed carbonization increased as pyrolysis temperature rised, increase of final pyrolysis temperature enhanced the degree of crystal-like ordering, and the degree of char deconstruction increased with final pyrolysis temperature increasing. The CO2 gasification reactivity showed a decrease tendency when final pyrolysis temperature increases.

Wavelet approximation coefficient(WAC) is similar matrix of original NIR. By linking the correlation coefficients of the optimal WAC with original NIR data, a research space with the all combinations of strong correlativity wavelength was selected as final wavelength regions to build a PLS calibration model of NIR. This selecting method considered the influence of density matrix on wavelength selection, filtered wavelet detail coefficient entirely, and avoided the interference of high frequency noise. The running time of building model was reduced enormously so that the final model is of higher accuracy. Compared with other traditional wavelength selecting method, This method is validated in the measurement of rice apparent amylose content by NIR. The apparent amylase content test results showed that the number of wavelengths for building the models can be reduced to 20% of the original method, the calibration model and the prediction precision are greatly improved by wavelet transform algorithm.

The air cylinder was used as a damper and its coefficient of damping was measured with CNC lathe. The accelerations of up-platform with different coefficients of damping were measured and compared by means of ADAMS simulation and experiments. Studies indicated that it's inappropriate to design the damping of the device according to the classic amplitude-frequency chart. It was proposed that the damping should be decided according to performance index of transient response of second order system. The conclusion showed that the multidimensional vibration isolation device for transporting eggs isolates vibration present a favorable effect when the damping ratio of 0.707 is adopted for the coefficient of damping of the air cylinder.

Based on morphological undecimated wavelet decomposition(MUWD), a novel approach was proposed to extract rolling element bearing fault feature. MUWD possess both the characteristic of morphological filter in morphology and multiresolution in wavelet transform. Signal length was maintained invariable and information loss could be avoided in MUWD. Multi-scale MUWD was developed based on the characteristic of impulse feature extraction in difference morphological filter. The method was used to extract impulse feature in bearing fault signal. Experiment results showed that the presented method can achieve a better performance than traditional wavelet packet. MUWD algorithm includes addition, subtraction, maximum and minimum operations, and does not involve multiplication and division. It is suitable for on-line monitoring and fault diagnosis of bearing.

The high and low pressure curves of the EUP's cyclic variation circles were analyzed. Test results showed that when the cam shaft speed is very high, the supply pressure instantaneous decreased as the plunger move downward, and the pressure wave which results from the backward flow of high pressure fuel appears in low fuel supply loop. The above two factors cause the negative pressure at low fuel supply loop, and leads to the cyclic variation. Increase in fuel supply pressure and the fuel supply pipe line's flow area is advantageous in reduction the cyclic variation of EUP.

The ebullience and vibration of the seed close to VC in VSP were highly correlated with vibration parameters. The sucking-seed capability of VC was measured on conditions of the different seeds thickness and the installation position of vibrator, respectively. In addition, the vibration characteristic of VSP was studied. The results showed that the optimal performance is obtained when the air-style vibrator is at the rear of VSP, and the regular capability of fine-sucking seed depends on the given seeds thickness close to VC and the vibrator's frequency in harmony. The prime performance comes to 93.118% when the optimum seeds thickness 0.7cm and frequency of vibration 98Hz.

The loosing soil parts of interval ladder framework were adopted. By the exciting force produced by the vibration system which is composed of connecting rod and crankshaft to loose soil, the high-solid soil was achieved to loose on the condition without damage to grassland vegetation. Experimental results showed that the scarifier has the ideal loosen effect in the forward speed of 1m/s and vibration frequency 10.0Hz. The test showed that the rate of vegetation destruction is 1.6%, tillage depth is 20.01cm, scarification ratio reaches 43.4%, and productivity reaches 0.85hm2/h. The average soil bulk density and the average firmness reduce by 30.0% and 48.8%, respectively after loosing soil. The yield of natural grassland and artificial grassland increases by 73.99% and 68.65%, respectively. The tilled soil forms the spacing cultivated horizon adapting to the growth of grass. The effect is obvious to improve the grassland ecological environment and improve grass production.

The effect of CTCT on operation resistance force was researched in annual two crops region in Northern China. The rolling resistance, opener resistance and total draft between controlled and non-controlled traffic treatments were analyzed. In subsoiling, wheat and maize planting, compared with non-controlled traffic with conservation tillage, CTCT total draft reduced by 14.6%, 13.3% and 13.3%, rolling resistance reduced by 26.9%, 21.9% and 19.7%, averaging 22.9%, working resistance reduced by 7.5%, 7.2% and 12.4%, averaging 8.8%. Opener resistance reduced 22.0% averagely in controlled traffic treatments than that in non-controlled traffic treatments. As the resistance decreased, fuel consumption in controlled traffic treatment reduced by 17.6%, 12.4% and 9.1% in three operations. Results showed that controlled traffic conservation tillage reduces agricultural machine working resistance and fuel consumption in field operation.

The regression equations for the relations between power consumption and the above parameters were established. Soil bin tests indicated that the parameter that had significant influence on power consumption is the rotary speed, next is the tillage depth, and the working speed had less influence. Then the universal blades were mounted on the bionic intelligent rototilling-stubble-breaking machine to perform rototilling and stubble-breaking tests respectively. Field tests showed that the stability of the tillage depth is over 93%, stubble-breaking rate, stubble coverage rate and soil-crushing rate are 81.8%, 87.2%, 87.9% on average, respectively, which meets the agrotechnical requirements.

To solve this problem, a method based on ant colony optimization algorithm was presented for extracting seed's contour in digital image. The digital image was taken as a two-dimensional grid. The seed's contour was the food for ant. The gradient and direction in the preceding step were the heuristic information which guided the ants to search the real contour together with pheromone intensity. Reasonable heuristic information and pheromone update mechanism was defined to increase the speed of convergence and raise the search ability. The relationship between the parameters in the algorithm was also studied. At last, the acquired images under two different kinds of illuminations were used to test the algorithm. The experiment result showed that the algorithm not only has nice robustness and parallelism, but also has preferable self-adaptive ability, and extract contour more accurately than the traditional methods.

A camera was fixed on the top of the combined harvester in order to capture images of farmland scenes in the process of harvesting. By virtue of statistic analysis and edge detection, the target location of walking goal line as well as the optimal points in the straight-line direction were determined according to different color features of harvested areas, non-harvested areas and areas without farmlands respectively. The optimal points selected as the point set, complete line detection was accomplished by applying RHT, which avoids invalid sampling and accumulation in comparison with the traditional algorithm of RHT. Through processing various pictures, it was well proved that the algorithm can effectively detects the linear parameters, with the processing time of about 200ms.

The vinegar was studied in term of the antibacterial activity, physical characters and the chemical components, to offer the theory base for almond shell wood vinegar used as a botanic antiseptic. Based on pyrolysis theories, wood vinegars were collected rang from 90-170°C, 170-370°C, and 370-500°C respectively, and refined by standing, adsorptions by charcoal and filtration. Physical and chemical characters were tested. Antibacterial activity of the obtained wood vinegar on germina was also investigated. The results showed that the generating temperature ranges of bitter almond shell wood vinegar is 90-500°C; the maximum amount of the wood vinegar was collected at the range of 170-370°C, which also showed the strongest anti-pathogens activities, the minimum pH and the highest organic acid content. GC/MS analysis showed that the main compositions of wood vinegar collected at 170-370°C is hydroxybenzenes, organic acids, aldehydes, ketones, alcohols, furans and esters etc. Among all the components examined, the content of acetic acid was the highest (22.41%), next the furfural and the phenol. Based on the preliminary analysis, it was considered that phenols, acetic acid and furfural are the active components of antibacterial activity.

Results showed that all the three factors have significant effect. Long treating time increases specific volume of puffed carrots while decreases product rehydration ratio significantly. The optimized result is 23% moisture content of pre-dried carrot, 150°C puffing temperature and 50s treating time. Puffing dried carrot at the above condition has small a shrinkage, a high rehydration ratio, and a appropriate hardness. Super heated stream puffing drying has a higher efficiency comparing to hot air drying, which could decrease drying time near 40%.

The results showed that temperature distribution inside horse mackerel fillets is uniform during the great part of drying periods, and the regular temperature gradient along the direction of fish fillets thickness doesn't occur. During horse mackerel drying by HPD, an obvious moisture gradient along the direction of thickness of fillets is found with drying temperature and velocity. In the initial stage of drying, drying rate of fish fillets is mainly depended on moisture evaporation. In the next stage of drying, drying rate of fish fillets is mainly depended on moisture diffusion. The moisture migration is mainly controlled by moisture content gradient.
