Do cover crops change the lability of phosphorus in a clayey subtropical soil under different phosphate fertilizers?

Plants have developed different mechanisms to absorb and solubilize phosphorus (P) in the soil, especially in environments with low P availability. This study evaluated the effects of different winter cover crops on soil P availability in a clayey subtropical (Hapludox) soil receiving soluble P fertilizer and a rock phosphate applied to the summer crop, under no‐tillage. The experiment was carried out over 3 yrs (2009–2011) with five different cover crop species: common vetch, fodder radish, ryegrass, black oat, white clover and fallow as control. The soil was sampled after the third year of cover crop cultivation and analysed for inorganic and organic P forms according to the well‐established Hedley fractionation procedure. Phosphate fertilizers promoted accumulation of both labile and nonlabile P pools in soil in the near surface layer, especially under rock phosphate. Fertilizer applications were not able to change P fractions in deeper layers, emphasizing that the Brazilian clayey soils are a sink of P from fertilizer and its mobility is almost nil. Although the cover crops recycled a great amount of P in tissue, in a short‐term evaluation (3 yrs) they only changed the content of moderately labile P in soil, indicating that long‐term studies are needed for more conclusive results.     

Quasi-non-linear fracture mechanics analysis of splitting failure in simply supported beams loaded perpendicular to grain by dowel joints

A quasi-non-linear fracture mechanics model based on beam on elastic foundation theory is applied for analysis of the splitting failure of dowel joints loaded perpendicular to grain. Simply supported beams symmetrically loaded by two dowels are considered, and the effects of edge distance, dowel spacing, and distance between dowels and supports are accounted for. The foundation modulus used in the beam on elastic foundation model is chosen so that the perpendicular-to-grain tensile strength and fracture energy properties of the wood are correctly represented. This ensures that a conventional stress analysis and failure criterion lead to the same solution as the compliance method of fracture mechanics. A semiempirical efficiency factor is proposed to account for the influence of the total beam depth, which does not enter the beam on elastic foundation model, but the effect of which is evident from tests. It is shown that the so-called Van der Put/Leijten model, which recently has been adopted in Eurocode 5, appears as a special case of the model presented. Tests on simply supported beams with a single dowel joint at midspan are compared with the theoretical predictions. Various edge distances, beam depths, and spans were tested.

May the Force (Field) Be with You: On the Importance of Conformational Searches in the Prediction of NMR Chemical Shifts

NMR data prediction is increasingly important in structure elucidation. The impact of force field selection was assessed, along with geometry and energy cutoffs. Based on the conclusions, we propose a new approach named mix-J-DP4, which provides a remarkable increase in the confidence level of complex stereochemical assignments—100% in our molecular test set—with a very modest increment in computational cost.

西南喀斯特区砾石对石灰土土壤孔隙及水分入渗的影响

[目的] 砾石是影响土壤孔隙和水分入渗的重要因素,明确砾石通过改变哪些土壤孔隙特征进而影响水分入渗具有重要意义。[方法] 以西南喀斯特地区砾石含量高的石灰土为研究对象,采用CT扫描和室内一维土柱入渗试验,对比分析2种砾石粒径(2.0~5.0,5.0~12.5 mm)和5种砾石含量(0,10％,20％,30％,40％)条件下的土壤孔隙特征及水分入渗特性,并使用结构方程模型探究土壤孔隙特征与入渗特性之间的耦合关系。[结果] (1)含砾石土壤的大孔隙度、孔隙连通率、孔隙形状因子、孔隙表面积和孔隙体积均高于无砾石土壤;且当砾石含量为20%和30%时,孔隙连通率与孔隙形状因子和无砾石土壤之间存在显著性差异(p<0.05);(2)砾石改善土壤入渗性能,粒径为2.0~5.0 mm时,砾石含量从10%到40%的稳定入渗率分别是无砾石土壤的4.02,5.00,2.88,5.14倍,累积入渗量分别是1.67,1.76,2.49,2.39倍;粒径为5.0~12.5 mm时,土壤稳定入渗率分别是无砾石的2.20,2.67,4.78,2.78倍,累积入渗量分别是1.42,1.75,2.46,2.02倍。(3)在结构方程模型中砾石含量与孔隙连通率、孔隙等效直径呈正相关关系,孔隙连通率对稳定入渗率的影响最大,孔隙等效直径对累积入渗量的影响最大。[结论] 砾石含量主要通过增加土壤孔隙连通率和孔隙等效直径促进水分入渗,研究结果可为深入认识西南喀斯特地区含砾石土壤的水文过程提供科学依据与理论参考。

微分及其在理论力学中的应用

微分有两个含义:1.对于与时间有关的函数(称之为动态函数)f而言,微分df表示在无限小的时间dt内函数f的增加量,即df=f(t dt)-f(t);2.对于与时间无关的函数(称之为静态函数)g而言,微分dg表示g的微小部分,所有dg之和等于g。时间的微分即时间的增加量dt总是恒大于0的正实数。函数f的增加量df与时间的增加量dt之比称为函数f的增加率,而非变化率。函数f的减小量-df与时间的增加量dt之比称为函数f的减小率。变化率包括增加率与减小率两种情况。质点所受到的合外力等于它的动量的增加率。作用力与反作用力互为对偶力。保守力与势能梯度互为对偶矢量。势能定理即势能的减小量等于保守力所作的功。
