And Botrytis cinerea was inoculated to investigate the incidence of gray mold. The results showed that:(1) there were significant differences in disease resistance between different varieties and different combinations.(2) There were significant differences in general combining ability and special combining ability between the tested varieties,and Wva536 and C2985 had a higher general combining ability effect,and were both relatively good parents when formulating resistant combinations. Combinations Wva536 × 03786 and Wva536 × 05237 had the highest special combining ability,and thus have the value of further research and utilization.(3) The additive effect in resistance inheritance was located at the primary position,and partial dominance also existed as well as cytoplasmic effect.(4) The broad-sense heritability and narrow-sense heritability were,respectively,89. 73% and82. 15%,which were higher,indicating that the parents had a greater effect on offsprings. The resistance genes can be expressed in offsprings through gene accumulation,and should be selected in the early generation.展开更多

The hybrid hierarchical multi-agent system adopts on-load tap-changing(OLTC) agents for the distribution transformers and feeder control section(FCS) agents for the distributed generators(DGs). The objective is to minimize the voltage deviations over the network. The FCS agents also have the objective of minimizing reductions in DG power output. A least squares method is used for curve fitting to achieve the two objectives. The OLTC agent receives voltage information from the FCS agents to evaluate the state of the voltage in each feeder and the distribution network and cooperates with the FCS agents to control the voltage of the network.The FCS agents exchange the fitted curve parameters and basic information on the DGs with other agents to achieve the objectives. The effectiveness of the proposed distributed cooperative voltage control scheme is verified through simulations. Depending on the network voltages obtained by the OLTC agent, different operations are executed to prevent voltage limit violations and to minimize the voltage deviations and reductions in the DG power outputs.展开更多

Emphasis is laid on vortex shedding and frequency analysis in a compressor cascade. Numerical simulations using unsteady Reynolds-averaged viscous turbulent equations are carried out. The results show that the flows in separated areas and wake areas are characterized as periodic or quasi-periodic vortex shedding and the frequencies of vortex shedding vary with incidences and Mach number. At the same Mach number, the frequency of vortex shedding will decrease as the incidence increases. Yet, the frequency will increase as the Mach number increases at the same incidence. In the same computation case, the frequency of vortex shedding will vary along the span of blade. The frequency is smaller at the middle of the span than that at the hub.展开更多
