The results showed that the growth of the plants fertilized with ammonium was not as good as the control treatment. The growth of the plants fertilized with ammonium nitrate did not differ significantly from that in control or nitrate treatment, but was better than that in the ammonium treatment. Total cation concentrations in shoots varied little with N level in the ammonium and ammonium nitrate treatments, while those in the shoot increased with N level in the nitrate treatment. The treatments had little effect on the anion concentrations in the shoot. In the roots, the concentrations of both cations and anions changed little except for SO4 2? and Ca2+. There existed a higher carboxylate production in the plants fertilized with nitrate. The ratio between the production of carboxylate and the production of organic N Δ(C-A)/ΔNorg was constant with N supply in the plants receiving nitrate, but obviously declined with N supply for ammonium-fed plants. Δ (C-A)/ΔNorg values were intermediate between those of the nitrate and the ammonium-fed plants as for the mixed N source.展开更多

This study examines predictive models of the injection-to-production ratio. Firstly, the error between the fitting and actual injection-production ratio is calculated with such methods as the injection-production ratio and water-oil ratio method, the material balance method, the multiple regression method, the gray theory GM (1,1) model and the back-propogation (BP) neural network method by computer applications in this paper. The relative average errors calculated are respectively 1.67%, 1.08%, 19.2%, 1.38% and 0.88%. Secondly, the reasons for the errors from different prediction methods are analyzed theoretically, indicating that the prediction precision of the BP neural network method is high, and that it has a better self-adaptability, so that it can reflect the internal relationship between the injection-production ratio and the influencing factors. Therefore, the BP neural network method is suitable to the prediction of injection-production ratio.展开更多

A two-stage power factor correction converter typically employs a cascade configuration of a pre-regulator boost power factor correction converter with average current mode control to achieve a near unity power factor and a tightly regulated post-regulator DC-DC Buck converter with voltage feedback control to regulate the output voltage. Based on the assumption that the tightly regulated postregulator DC-DC Buck converter is represented as a constant power sink and some other assumptions, the simplified model of the two-stage power factor correction converter is derived and its approximate periodic solution is calculated by the method of IHB. And then, the stability of the system is investigated by using Floquet theory and the stable boundaries are presented on the selected parameter spaces. Finally, some experimental results are given to confirm the effectiveness of the theoretical analysis.展开更多

However, such separation introduces the issues regarding the reliability of the control plane and controller load imbalance in the distributed SDN network, which will cause the low network stability and the poor controller performance. This paper proposes Reliable and Load balance-aware Multi-controller Deployment(RLMD) strategy to address the above problems. Firstly, we establish a multiple-controller network model and define the relevant parameters for RLMD. Then, we design the corresponding algorithms to implement this strategy. By weighing node efficiency and path quality, Controller Placement Selection(CPS) algorithm is introduced to explore the reliable deployments of the controllers. On this basis, we design Multiple Domain Partition(MDP) algorithm to allocate switches for controllers according to node attractability and controller load balancing rate, which could realize the reasonable domain planning. Finally, the simulations show that, compared with the typical strategies, RLMD has the better performance in improving the reliability of the control plane and balancing the distribution of the controller loads.展开更多

Despite some numerical simulation studies, the complicated drive mechanisms and actual reservoir performance have not been fully understood. There is a strong need to develop models from different perspectives to complement current simulators and provide valuable insights into the reservoir performance during CO2 flooding. The aim of this study is to develop a model by using an improved material balance equation （MBE） to analyze quickly the performance of CO2 flooding. After matching the historical field data the proposed model can be used to evaluate, monitor and predict the overall reservoir dynamic performance during CO2 flooding. In order to account accurately for the complex displacement process involving compositional effect and multiphase flow, the PVT properties and flowability of reservoir fluids are incorporated in the model. This study investigates the effects of a number of factors, such as reservoir pressure, the amount of CO2 injected, the CO2 partition ratios in reservoir fluids, the possibility of the existence of a free CO2 gas cap, the proportion of reservoir fluids contacted with CO2, the starting time of CO2 flooding, oil swelling, and oil flowability improvement by mixing with CO2. The model was used to analyze the CO2 flooding project in Weyburn oil field, Saskatchewan, Canada. This study shows that the proposed model is an effective complementary tool to analyze and monitor the overall reservoir performance during CO2 flooding.展开更多

In group Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ, end-tidal pressure of Co2(PETCO2) were maintained at 3. 5, 4. 0 and 4. 5 kPa respectively. Radial arterial blood samples and jugular bulb blood samples weretaken synchronously at 60 min after hyperventilation to measure jugular venous oxygen saturation (SjvO2), cerebral extraction of oxygen (CEO2) and cerebral arteriovenous oxygen content difference (AVDO2) were calculatedResults: In group Ⅰ after hyperventilation, SjvO, and jugular venous oxygen content (CjvO2) were decreasedmarkedly while CEO2 was increased significantly, which was different significantly compared with the baseline andcorresponding value in group Ⅱ and Ⅲ (P<0. 05). After hyperventilation in group, and, SjvO2 CjvO2, CEO2and AVDO, remained unchanged. Conclusion: This study shows that sustained excessive hyperventilation (PETCO23.5 kPa) may account for the less favorable cerebral oxygen supply and consumption balance and maintained PETCO, at 4. 0~4. 5 kPa was optimal hyperventilation for brain surgery anesthesia.展开更多

The balance laws are non standard because they contain a variable u that appears only in the flux terms. We present a concrete example occurring in flow of steam, nitrogen and water in porous media and an abstract example for a class of systems of three equations. In the concrete example the zero-order equations resulting from the expansion yield a type of conservation law system called compositional model in Petroleum Engineering. In this work we show how compositional models originate from physically more fundamental systems of balance laws. Under appropriate conditions, we prove that certain solutions of the system of balance laws decay with time to rarefaction wave solutions in the compositional model originating from the system of balance laws.展开更多

The stability condition for steady-state solution is obtained based on Lyapunov theory. The comparison of the approximate analytical results with the numerical results is fulfilled, and the approximations obtained are in good agreement with the numerical solutions. The bifurcations of primary resonance for system parameters are analyzed. The results show that the harmonic balance method is effective and convenient for solving this problem, and it provides a reference for the dynamical analysis of similar nonlinear systems.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND:Fluid management is crucial to acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS)secondary to sepsis.However,choices of fluid resuscitation strategies and fluid input volumes remain a thorny problem.Our study aimed to elucidate the relationship between fluid balance and prognosis of ARDS patients secondary to sepsis.METHODS:Our study included 322 sepsis patients from Ruijin Hospital between 2014 and 2018,and 84 patients were diagnosed as ARDS within 72 hours after onset of sepsis according to Berlin ARDS Defi nition.RESULTS:Among the 322 sepsis patients,84(26.1%)were complicated with ARDS within 72 hours.ARDS patients had a lower oxygenation index(PaO2/FiO2166.4±71.0 vs.255.0±91.2,P<0.05),longer duration of mechanical ventilation(11[6-24]days vs.0[0-0]days,P<0.05)than those without ARDS.Sepsis patients with ARDS showed daily positive net fl uid balance during seven days compared with those without ARDS who showed daily negative net fluid balance since the second day with signifi cant statistical differences.Among the 84 sepsis patients with ARDS,58(69.0%)died.Mean daily fl uid input volumes were much lower in survivors than in non-survivors(43.2±16.7 mL/kg vs.51.0±25.2 mL/kg,P<0.05)while output volumes were much higher in survivors(45.2±19.8 mL/kg vs.40.2±22.7 mL/kg,P<0.05).Using binary logistic regression analysis,we found that the mean daily fl uid balance was independently associated with mortality of sepsis patients complicating with ARDS(P<0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Early negative fluid balance is independently associated with a better prognosis of sepsis patients complicated with ARDS.

文摘In this paper, period-doubling bifurcation in a two-stage power factor correction converter is analyzed by using the method of incremental harmonic balance （IHB） and Floquet theory. A two-stage power factor correction converter typically employs a cascade configuration of a pre-regulator boost power factor correction converter with average current mode control to achieve a near unity power factor and a tightly regulated post-regulator DC-DC Buck converter with voltage feedback control to regulate the output voltage. Based on the assumption that the tightly regulated postregulator DC-DC Buck converter is represented as a constant power sink and some other assumptions, the simplified model of the two-stage power factor correction converter is derived and its approximate periodic solution is calculated by the method of IHB. And then, the stability of the system is investigated by using Floquet theory and the stable boundaries are presented on the selected parameter spaces. Finally, some experimental results are given to confirm the effectiveness of the theoretical analysis.

文摘Software Defined Networking(SDN) provides flexible network management by decoupling control plane and data plane. However, such separation introduces the issues regarding the reliability of the control plane and controller load imbalance in the distributed SDN network, which will cause the low network stability and the poor controller performance. This paper proposes Reliable and Load balance-aware Multi-controller Deployment(RLMD) strategy to address the above problems. Firstly, we establish a multiple-controller network model and define the relevant parameters for RLMD. Then, we design the corresponding algorithms to implement this strategy. By weighing node efficiency and path quality, Controller Placement Selection(CPS) algorithm is introduced to explore the reliable deployments of the controllers. On this basis, we design Multiple Domain Partition(MDP) algorithm to allocate switches for controllers according to node attractability and controller load balancing rate, which could realize the reasonable domain planning. Finally, the simulations show that, compared with the typical strategies, RLMD has the better performance in improving the reliability of the control plane and balancing the distribution of the controller loads.
文摘Implementing a CO2 flooding scheme successfully requires the capacity to get accurate information of reservoir dynamic performance and fluids injected. Despite some numerical simulation studies, the complicated drive mechanisms and actual reservoir performance have not been fully understood. There is a strong need to develop models from different perspectives to complement current simulators and provide valuable insights into the reservoir performance during CO2 flooding. The aim of this study is to develop a model by using an improved material balance equation （MBE） to analyze quickly the performance of CO2 flooding. After matching the historical field data the proposed model can be used to evaluate, monitor and predict the overall reservoir dynamic performance during CO2 flooding. In order to account accurately for the complex displacement process involving compositional effect and multiphase flow, the PVT properties and flowability of reservoir fluids are incorporated in the model. This study investigates the effects of a number of factors, such as reservoir pressure, the amount of CO2 injected, the CO2 partition ratios in reservoir fluids, the possibility of the existence of a free CO2 gas cap, the proportion of reservoir fluids contacted with CO2, the starting time of CO2 flooding, oil swelling, and oil flowability improvement by mixing with CO2. The model was used to analyze the CO2 flooding project in Weyburn oil field, Saskatchewan, Canada. This study shows that the proposed model is an effective complementary tool to analyze and monitor the overall reservoir performance during CO2 flooding.
文摘Objective: To evaluate the effects of various degrees of hyperventilation on balance of cerebral oxygensupply and consumption during intravenous general anesthesia with jugular venous oxygen saturation monitoringMetbods: Sixty-six patients with supratentorial tumor undergoing intravenous general anesthesia for brain surgerywere randomly divided into three groups. In group Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ, end-tidal pressure of Co2(PETCO2) were maintained at 3. 5, 4. 0 and 4. 5 kPa respectively. Radial arterial blood samples and jugular bulb blood samples weretaken synchronously at 60 min after hyperventilation to measure jugular venous oxygen saturation (SjvO2), cerebral extraction of oxygen (CEO2) and cerebral arteriovenous oxygen content difference (AVDO2) were calculatedResults: In group Ⅰ after hyperventilation, SjvO, and jugular venous oxygen content (CjvO2) were decreasedmarkedly while CEO2 was increased significantly, which was different significantly compared with the baseline andcorresponding value in group Ⅱ and Ⅲ (P<0. 05). After hyperventilation in group, and, SjvO2 CjvO2, CEO2and AVDO, remained unchanged. Conclusion: This study shows that sustained excessive hyperventilation (PETCO23.5 kPa) may account for the less favorable cerebral oxygen supply and consumption balance and maintained PETCO, at 4. 0~4. 5 kPa was optimal hyperventilation for brain surgery anesthesia.

文摘We study the long time formation of rarefaction waves appearing in balance laws by means of singular perturbation methods. The balance laws are non standard because they contain a variable u that appears only in the flux terms. We present a concrete example occurring in flow of steam, nitrogen and water in porous media and an abstract example for a class of systems of three equations. In the concrete example the zero-order equations resulting from the expansion yield a type of conservation law system called compositional model in Petroleum Engineering. In this work we show how compositional models originate from physically more fundamental systems of balance laws. Under appropriate conditions, we prove that certain solutions of the system of balance laws decay with time to rarefaction wave solutions in the compositional model originating from the system of balance laws.

文摘The dynamical properties of fractional-order Duffing–van der Pol oscillator are studied, and the amplitude–frequency response equation of primary resonance is obtained by the harmonic balance method. The stability condition for steady-state solution is obtained based on Lyapunov theory. The comparison of the approximate analytical results with the numerical results is fulfilled, and the approximations obtained are in good agreement with the numerical solutions. The bifurcations of primary resonance for system parameters are analyzed. The results show that the harmonic balance method is effective and convenient for solving this problem, and it provides a reference for the dynamical analysis of similar nonlinear systems.
