In-cylinder pressures of 20 combustion cycles and maximum pressures under economic speed and medium load operation were recorded. Consequently, cycle-to-cycle variations of maximum pressures and combustion characteristic were analyzed. The results reveal that, under the conditions of pure diesel, with the increase of oxygen concentration, the maximum cylinder pressures increase, and the cyclic variability of the maximum cylinder pressures and the ignition timing decrease. Using water emulsion diesel, with the increase of volume fraction of water, the ignition timing increases, but it still decreases with the oxygen concentration increasing. When the fraction of water is over 30%, the ignition delay increases dramatically, the in-cylinder burning deteriorates, and the variations of maximum pressure grow.

Results indicate that storage moduli (G′) is much higher than loss moduli (G″) over the entire frequency range. Both G′ and G″ show frequent independent, but increase with the increasing of turgor. In creep testing, the creep compliance responses of low, normal and high turgor tissues were characterized by a generalized Kelvin-Voigt model with six elements. The instantaneous (J0), retarded compliance (J1 and J2) and steady-state fluidity (1/η0) increased as turgor was reduced. By scanning electron microscopy (SEM), many rheological parameters (G″, G′, J0, J1, J2 and 1/η0) show the marked changes among the three turgor levels, which relates with the changes of cells and intercellular spaces due to the turgor manipulation.

The results show that their color difference is 3.76, which could be discriminated by naked eyes. Okara-containing tofu is darker than control. Because of soybean polysaccharide and cellulose, okara-containing tofu has the higher yield and WHC than control, and the effect of CaCl2 concentration decreases on okara-containing tofu. Due to the interaction of polysaccharide and protein, the okara-containing tofu is in chaos of block microstructure, while the control has an ordered and refined networks structure in SEM. Because polysaccharide interferes with the formation of protein networks, which weakens the gel strength, the okara-containing tofu has the lower value than control in the hardness, springiness and chewiness.

Taking minimal daily electric cost as objective function, the water quantity pumped by units as coordinated variable, this model was decomposed into several sub-models of daily optimal operation with adjustable-blade for single pump unit, in which the blade angle was taken as decision variable, the discrete values of water quantity pumped by each unit as state variable, and was solved by means of dynamic programming method. The constructed aggregation model takes water quantity pumped by each pump unit as decision variable, the discrete values of water quantity pumped by pumping station as state variable, and was also solved by dynamic programming method. This method could solve the optimal operation issues for multiple pump units with different types or performance differences in single pumping station. Taking operation of No.4 Huai'an Pumping Station as a study case, a set of optimization results was obtained.

Computational fluid dynamics technology was employed for simulation based on the unsteady model. The simulation results fitted experimental data well. After that, several parameters (pumping speed, free volume, and clapboard etc.) which would affect the flow field were analyzed. The higher the pumping speed is, the lower the pressure limitation is, the lower the minimum air temperature of vacuum chamber is and the more time spent in reaching minimum temperature. The free volume did not affect pressure limitation of the vacuum chamber. The greater the free volume is, the higher the minimum air temperature of vacuum chamber is and the less time spent in reaching minimum temperature. Referring to the pressure limitation and the average temperature of the flow field, the placement of clapboard can be equivalent to the reduction of free volume.

Totally 208 longissimus dorsi muscle samples were collected from different carcasses. Sample spectra were scanned while the samples were moving at the speed of 0.25 m/s. Wavelet transform was employed to eliminate the spectra noise. Partial least squares regression (PLSR) based on the de-noised spectra, combined with different pretreatment methods, was explored to predict intramuscular fat. Daubechies of vanishing moment-6 at decomposition level 6 with the minimax threshold gave good de-noising results. PLSR model based on the de-noised spectra without any pretreatment had poor prediction performances. And through pretreatment, including multiplicative signal correction (MSC), standard normalized variate (SNV) and derivative, the performances are improved. The first derivative spectral in conjunction with SNV yielded the best PLSR model with correlation coefficient of 0.892 and 0.834 in calibration and validation sets, respectively, along with root mean square error of calibration of 0.090 and root mean square error of 0.080 for validation. Results indicate that it is possible to predict intramuscular fat content on-line. However, the best ratio of the standard deviation to the SEP of the validation set (RPD) value was 1.738, and the accuracy and the robustness of the model needed further improvement for practical on-line application.

The result shows that the maximum rise time is 1 s in the condition of step amplitude ΔQ=0.4, 1.4, 3.4, 3.9, 4.4L/min, which is comparable with variable-rate spray system controlled by changing flow press; the rise time, peak time and overshoot show correlation with the amplitude, which indicates that the system belongs to nonlinear system. So the control design of this type of variable-rate continuous spray system must take nonlinear problems into account.

The results showed that, the variations between cumulative evaporation at unit depth and evaporation time fit Gardner's theory for all the soil column heights. There were 2-variable linear functions between cumulative evaporation at unit depth, evaporation time and total soil height. There was relatively good relationship between cumulative evaporation at unit depth and total soil height as well as open-hole ratios. There were also relatively good relationship between cumulative evaporation at unit depth by unit area of film holes and total soil height as well as open hole ratios. The smaller the total soil height, the larger the variation ranges of soil salt content at unit depth and soil salt concentration. The total soil height was a factor that influenced on upward movement of soil salt. Because plastic mulch with open holes restrained soil water evaporation rates and also affected accumulation of soil salt on soil surface, it was effective to decrease soil salt accumulation on soil surface by decreasing open-hole ratios of plastic.

Based on the work principle of an electro-hydraulic vibration system, the mathematical model of an exciter was established. The equations of excited waveforms were solved by using the subsection integration method, and the real excited waveforms were obtained to validate the theoretical analysis result. The corresponding spectrum analysis and the distortion calculation were executed. The results reveal that in low frequency section, the ascent and descent slopes of excited waves demonstrated somewhat asymmetrical because of the changing direction of the elastic load. The extent of asymmetry depends on the axial opening of 2D valve. The waveform distortion is not greater than 9.5% as long as the linear opening of 2D valve is below a critical point.

To examine the effects of various factors on the impingement development, experiments were conducted at different injection pressures, ambient pressures, wall distances and angles. The impinging spray development, spray height, spray radius, and spray growth rate were measured. Experimental results show that the spray penetration increases with the increase of injection pressure, wall distance and angle. The penetration decreases with the increase of ambient pressure. High injection pressure and low ambient pressure increased the fuel contact area and accelerated the evaporation. The predicted penetrations with the empirical equations in all cases agree with measurements, to a certain extent.

The objective of above works is to establish a rational saline water irrigation program of winter wheat in North China and to supply a theoretical basis for utilization of saline water. The results showed that the salt was cumulated on upper soil layer when the saline water of 3 g/L mineralization degree was utilized continuously, and plant would be subjected to salt stress, especially, in the rainfall deflection crop year. Yield will increase when irrigated with saline water comparing with that of dry farming and the yield is higher with three times irrigations than that of twice. The repeated saline water irrigations should be avoid if the precipitation is small.

The apples in the images taken under different lighting conditions were recognized. Some pretreatments were applied to get contour images. The shape features of the apples were extracted from the contour images based on the method of random circle ring. A matching algorithm based on area feature and epipolar geometry was discussed to position the apples. The apples with similar areas were matched according to the principle of left-right order consistency by calculating the maximum value of cross-correlation function of vertical projections.

Based on the inhibitory activity of ACE and degree of hydrolysis (DH), the effects of ultrasonic power, pretreatment time and the on-off time ratio on ultrasonic pretreatment efficacy were studied. The results show that the optimum conditions of ultrasonic pretreatment are 500 W of ultrasonic power, 20 min of pretreatment time and 2s/2s of ultrasonic on-off time ratio. Under the optimum conditions, half inhibiting concentration (IC50) value of ACE decreases from 0.533 mg/mL to 0.299 mg/mL, and the time of enzymolysis reduces from 90 min to 60 min. Experiments also show that ultrasonic pretreatment parameters have made a significant impact on ACE inhibitory activity while no significant effect on the DH.

Partial least squares regression (PLS) method was selected to perform the calibration models for predicting the moisture content. For determining the number of principal component factors in the PLS model and the method of spectra preprocessing, the model with the lowest prediction residual error sum of square based on cross-validation for the calibration samples set was chosen. The determination coefficient between the predicted and the reference results for the prediction samples set, along with the root mean squared error of prediction (RMSEP), was used as evaluation parameters for the models. The results indicate that the forecast result of spectral data is optimal through the spectra preprocessing method of moving average filter (MAF) and first derivative (FD), with 5 principal component factors. The determination coefficients of the calibration and prediction models are 0.9930 and 0.9901, with root mean squared error of calibration (RMSEC) and prediction (RMSEP) of 0.0676 and 0.0715, respectively.

Dielectric elastomers (DE) can achieve good performance in a generator mode, such as high energy density, good impedance matching to many energy sources, low cost, etc. Based on the structure of dielectric elastomers film, the fundamentals of dielectric elastomers, namely fundamentals of alterable capacitance are discussed. The theoretical models of dielectric elastomers film were analyzed, and the conclusion that Maxwell stress effects could be treated as a piezoelectric material with an effective piezoelectric coefficient was drawn. Power energy conversion cycle was analyzed by simulation and experiments, and the experimental curves of output voltages were investigated. The relation between electric field and elastic restoring stress, and its influence on power generating efficiency, were discussed.

The pressures were controlled at (10±5) kPa and (80±5) kPa, respectively with air storage as control. The results indicate that hypobaric storage not only significantly slows down respiratory and ethylene production rates, but also inhibits the decreases of fruit firmness, L*, titratable acids and Vitamin C contents. Hypobaric storage can maintain higher SOD and CAT activities, maintain the stability of membrane system, and retard occurrence of senescence and decay. Hypobaric storage under (10±5) kPa can extend the storage life up to 30 days. It is concluded that the hypobaric storage is an effective method of prolonging the postharvest life of juicy peach fruit.

The simulation based on the model shows that the variation tendency of soil moisture content with temperature measured by the EC-5 sensor is closely related to the soil electrical conductivity. Using least squares support vector machine, the sensor temperature compensation function was built and corresponding compensation algorithm was proposed. The results of the experiment indicate that the sensor measurement errors caused by temperature are effectively offset.

A new calculation method for the normal error is developed, and a self-adaptive cutter location compensation optimization algorithm is proposed, whose objective is to minimize the maximal normal error. This algorithm can find out the best compensation direction and value by the cutter location optimization for any cam rotation angle and make the cutter location self-adaptive and flexible compensation according to the machining error. The normal error calculation formula has been proved to be valid by an example. A conclusion has been drawn that the radius difference between the cutter and the roller is the best compensation value and the best compensation direction is not fixed. The results show that the correctness and effectiveness of the improved self-adaptive compensation method have been proved and machining errors can be evidently reduced.
