Anthropometric evaluation of cockpit designs

The objective of this research is to evaluate all the critical reaches in a cockpit and determine the visual sufficiency of a cockpit to accommodate 90% of potential pilots. While mismatches of measurements with cockpit dimensions are revealed, proposals are made to improve cockpit ergonomics. Regression models were generated to predict and assure adequate exterior vision. Mean, lower and upper control limits of all measurements were found acceptable except eye level. There are very strong positive relationships between stature and eye level (R²?=?0.972, p?R²?=?0.994, p?SD smaller than the eye level mean or seating adjustment limits in height may be changed. In general, cockpit design is acceptable in terms of fit/reach accommodation for pilots, except eye level and visual variables that could be solved by better seat adjustments.     

岷江大桥控制单元水体氨氮和总磷源解析

采用单因素法对岷江流域国控断面的岷江大桥水体进行评价,从污染源分担率、污染物时空变化等方面解析污染物的主要来源与变化。结果表明,水体不达标的主要因子为氨氮和总磷;污染物的主要来自城镇生活污水和规模化畜禽养殖废水的不达标排放,按各个污染源占比统计,2个主要污染源对于氨氮和总磷的污染分担率分别是42.54%、35.31%;受上游来水、其他补给水源的影响,氨氮浓度集中在1~5月超标严重,在2013年4月份出现峰值,总磷在2011~2014年普遍超标严重,在2014年5月出现峰值,由于"十二五"期间治污力度的加强,2015年氨氮污染趋势得到控制,总磷浓度明显有所降低,MIKE 21二维水动力水质模型模拟显示只要汇入支流断面均达到要求、污染负荷得到有效控制,控制单元能满足达标要求;最后从源头减排、区域综合整治、全程监管3个方面构建了使控制单元水体达标的策略。     

闽江下游北港河段污染物运动特性模拟与分析

建立了闽江下游北港河段二维水动力、水质耦合模型,对不同排污口污染带特征进行了分析比较,结果表明：排污口的布置对北港水质有很大影响,在排放相同浓度相同流量的污染物时,各排污口污染带长度和宽度完全不同。各排污口污染带长度明显大于宽度,彬德闸、江泗闸产生的污染带比较短,五孔闸、九孔闸污染带很长,在排放流量为40m^3／s,排放浓度为15mg/L时,在彬德闸或江泗闸排放对东南水厂水质影响较小,在五孔闸或九孔闸排放对东南水厂造成很大的影响。     

珠江广州河段上覆水和间隙水中磷特性研究

通过研究污染比较严重的珠江广州河段(雅岗至琶洲大桥)的六个断面,共10个采样点的上覆水和间隙水的磷形态分布特征,得上覆水总磷(TP)值为0.705～3.893mg/L,均为劣V类水质。总溶解性磷(TDP)与磷酸盐磷(PO43-)在各采样点的含量分布不均匀,由PO43-含量显示,各采样点已经有明显的富营养化趋势。通过分析各采样点间隙水磷含量和引起其上下层含量差异的环境因素知间隙水TP与TDP有一定相关性。间隙水上下层TP,TDP,PO43-含量差异可能与沉积物有机质和氧化还原环境有一定相关性,总体上认为厌氧环境有利于促进沉积物的磷释放到间隙水。     

基于能值理论的生态足迹方法改进

生态足迹方法自提出以来受到广泛关注,其缺点也受到一些学者的批评。ZhaoSheng等2005年提出能值足迹法,弥补了生态足迹法以土地生产能力为限制的缺点。论文提出区域能值足迹法,以弥补其改进方法不能够反映区域实际情况和技术进步带来影响的不足。最后,以岷江上游1982到2002年为例应用3种方法进行计算分析。结果表明研究区生态足迹呈缓慢上升趋势,生态足迹方法计算结果<能值足迹<区域能值足迹;生态承载力计算结果显示生态足迹与区域能值足迹方法结果呈平缓下降趋势,而能值足迹方法结果呈不规则变动。区域能值足迹法能够考虑到区域实际情况和技术进步,但它不能完全代替生态足迹方法,将其结合应用将得到更多信息。     

农业气候资源变化对双季稻生产的可能影响分析

基于长江中游地区50 个气象台站自1960 年以来的历年地面气象观测资料,分1960-2009 及1960-1984、1985-2009 年3 个不同时间段,分温度生长期、早稻生长期、晚稻生长期分别分析了热量、光照、降水等农业的变化特征,并讨论对双季稻生产的可能影响。1960-2009年,该地区温度生长期平均气温、平均日最低气温、平均日最高气温的平均增速分别为0.08 ℃/10 a、0.09 ℃/10 a、0.07 ℃/10 a,≥10 ℃活动积温的平均增速为66.3 ℃/10 a,日照时数的平均减速为31.7 h/10 a,降水量的平均增速为3.7 mm/10 a。表现为温度上升、积温增加、温度生长期延长、日照时数减少、降水量微弱增加的变化特征。温度升高、积温增加可能导致发育速度加快、生育期缩短、病虫害加重,日照时数减少可能影响叶片光合及产量。早稻生长期的平均气温、≥10 ℃活动积温的增速分别为0.20 ℃/10 a、48.9 ℃/10 a,晚稻生长期分别为0.09 ℃/10 a、14.6 ℃/10 a,早稻和晚稻生长期间日照时数的下降速率分别为18.6 h/10 a、42.7 h/10 a,降水量的增加速率分别为1.9 mm/10 a、8.7 mm/10 a,表现为升温速率早稻大于晚稻,日照时数下降速率晚稻大于早稻,降水量增加速率晚稻大于早稻。早稻期间升温和积温增加明显可能有利于早稻提前播种、选用生育期稍长的品种、提高产量潜力和产量,晚稻期间升温不明显且日照时数下降则可能不利于群体光合和产量形成,影响其产量潜力和产量。区域中的江汉平原、洞庭湖平原等基础条件好的地区,其热量、日照、降水同步增加,其他地区则表现为热量、降水增加,但日照时数下降,要充分发挥其基础条件好与气候资源丰富且同步增加等优势,发展高效规模化生产,增强稻谷生产能力。

Experimental investigation of the effect of sediment transport patterns on the adsorption of cadmium ions onto sediment particles

The mechanism of flow turbulence, sediment supply conditions, and sediment transport patterns that affect the adsorption of cadmium ions onto sediment particles in natural waters are experimentally simulated and studied in this study both in batch reactors and in a turbulence simulation tank. By changing the agitation conditions, the sediment transport in batch reactors can be categorized into bottom sediment-dominated sediment and suspended sediment-dominated sediment. It is found that the adsorption rate of bottom sediment is much less than that of suspended sediment, but the sediment transport pattern does not affect the final (equilibrium) concentration of dissolved cadmium. This result indicates that the parameters of an adsorption isotherm are the same regardless of the sediment transport pattern. In the turbulence simulation tank, the turbulence is generated by harmonic grid-stirred motions, and the turbulence intensity is quantified in terms of eddy diffusivity, which is equal to 9.84F(F is the harmonic vibration frequency) and is comparable to natural surface water conditions.When the turbulence intensity of flow is low and sediment particles stay as bottom sediment, the adsorption rate is significantly low, and the adsorption quantity compared with that of suspended sediment is negligible in the 6 h duration of the experiment. This result greatly favors the simplification of the numerical modeling of heavy metal pollutant transformation in natural rivers. When the turbulence intensity is high but bottom sediment persists, the rate and extent of descent of the dissolved cadmium concentration in the tank noticeably increase, and the time that is required to reach adsorption equilibrium also increases considerably due to the continuous exchange that occurs between the suspended sediment and the bottom sediment.A comparison of the results of the experiments in the batch reactor and those in the turbulence simulation tank reveals that the adsorption ability of the sediment, and in particular the adsorption rate, is greatly over-estimated in the batch reactor.
