Model predictive control strategy of a medium hybrid electric vehicle

The intense coupled and nonlinear behaviors were observed on the tall long span tower line systems which were under the icing and wind loads in heavy icing areas. A set of stiffness equations of insulator, conductor and boundary conditions was deduced. Taking the ±800 kV UHV DC transmission line from Xiangjiaba to Shanghai as an example, the simplified numerical model of transmission tower, conductor, insulator and constraint was developed. The long span transmission tower line system models under seven loads conditions were analyzed by static nonlinear methods. It was found that the P Δ effect of tower components was small when the covered ice was uniformly distributed. The unbalanced wire loads on the tower would lead to twist effect when the covered ice was uneven distributed. The axial forces, moments at restraint nodes and the longest cantilever member were greatly affected by the P Δ effect, under which the unfavorable effect on the structure should be considered.

The temperature sensitive hybrid breakdown 1 induces low temperature-dependent intrasubspecific hybrid breakdown in rice

Hybrid breakdown (HB) is an important type of post-zygotic reproductive barrier that inhibits hybrid production during the process of cross-breeding. A novel low temperature-dependent HB was identified in a chromosomal segment substitution line (CSSL) library derived from a cross of two rice (Oryza sativa L. japonica) cultivars, Yukihikari and Kirara397. A set of weakness symptoms in a target CSSL was observed at 23°C, but was rescued at 27°C and/or 30°C. Genetic analysis of HB using an F_2:3 population of a cross between a target CSSL and Kirara397 found that a recessive temperature sensitive hybrid breakdown1 (thb1) gene from Yukihikari caused HB in the genetic background of Kirara397. Molecular mapping showed that thb1 was located within a 199-kb fragment on chromosome 6. A genetic study of F₂ populations of reciprocal crosses between Yukihikari and Kirara397 confirmed that this HB was induced by the interaction of two recessive genes. These results provide important clues to further dissect the mechanism of generation of a novel temperature sensitive HB in rice intrasubspecific crosses and suggest that these linked markers will useful in rice breeding.
