    Mountain close planting dwarf jujube wood has become the leading mode in loess hilly ecological economic forest in recent years due to its characteristics of fruit early and good high yield. However, studying on root system of forest stand under this model is extremely less. Three techniques like the whole digging, profile and root drilling were adopted in this paper to investigate and research on spatial distribution characteristics of jujube root systems in Shaanbei loess hilly regions. Results indicate: ① as for dwarf close planting jujube wood of 9 ages, the distribution of dry root system weight and accumulative total length decreases with soil depth increasing in the vertical direction. By contrast, the root surface area grows firstly and then it reduces. Biomass density of soil root system is the largest within 0~60cm. More precisely, the mean value reaches 667 g/m3, 627 g/m3, 534g/m3 respectively. While the biomass density of soil root systems descends away from the trunk in horizontal direction. Meanwhile, it is obvious that biomass density between strain sites is slightly greater than that of vicinity, which appears alternately between both trees. ②The relationship among spatial biomass density of jujube root system, dry weight, length, surface area, vertical soil depth as well as horizontal soil thickness of 1 m apart from surface can be expressed very accurately employing binomial function. Furthermore, correlation coefficients are all above 0.9. ③Root biomass accumulative vertical distribution fits Y = 1-β d model for different diameter ranging from 0 to 9 m of 9-year-old jujube. In addition, there is no root distribution under the depth of 7 m.

    The two soils indifferent salt content (moderate salinity EC25: 3-7 dS?m-1 and mild salinity EC25: 1-3 ds?m-1 ) were selected, research on changes of soil salinity and moisture content and impact on dry matter accumulation of cotton fields in whole growing period. The results showed that: apparently decline of soil salinity in the 0-20 cm,moderate and mild salinity soil in the 0-20cm soil layer decreased by 1.73 dS?m-1 and 1.04 dS?m-1 respectively, accumulation zone in the 40-80 cm in the two soils of different salinity content. The whole growth period similar trends which early (squaring period) rapidly decrease and slowly increase in the late, salt content of moderate and mild soil have a very significant difference in every soil layers. Per plant dry matter accumulation of moderate and mild salinity cotton field in the early growth stage has differences significant, late difference was not significant.

    Participation is viewed as an important means of promoting the sustainable management of natural resources. However, participation is not always successful. Power relationships and conflicting values are all factors that can severely affect the participative management. So it is unknown which one is the decisive factor. From this, this article starts from the aspect of worldview. Taking Ganzhou district in Zhangye city as an example, The author obtain first-hand data by the questionnaire survey. At the same time, The author estimate local people’s idea by cultural theory and clustering analysis and weigh the consistency between worldview of different groups and the strategy of Water resources management by the Kendall’W. Results show : there are four worldviews,including hierarchism-equalitarianism,hierarchism-individualism,individualism-hierarchism and strong-hierarchism, among which strong-hierarchism worldview plays an important role.The relationship between different worldviews and corresponding Water resources management strategy is inconsistent. It indicates that individual worldviews in this area is secondary factor that affects public participatory water resource management. Either this or that, Power relationships is the decisive factors in public participation water resource management. The Analysis of the results will do great to provide decision-making support to smoothly carry out public participatory water resource management and Improve water saving benefits.

    Based on the geometrical characteristics and design requirements of concrete dam, the design variables,restraining conditions and objective function are determined in the paper. In order to fulfill the shape optimal design of finite element for concrete dam , the ANSYS parametric design language(APDL)was utilized to program . Different dams have characteristic parameters reflecting their geometric shape. We can define these characteristic parameters as design variables, construct finite element model of dam body and corresponded base rock by using these design variables and some knowed parameters,and define dam’s volume as objective function in the finite element program. Then we apply optimal module of ANSYS software based on finite element model ,rectify and calculate the design variables in term of restraining conditions until the dam’s volume converge a minimal result finally. The final design variables corresponding to the objective function just are the optimal answers, thus we fulfill the shape optimal design of concrete dam. In the practical examples we optimize a gravity dam and an arch dam according to this design notion,calculation results of the practical examples show that the design method is audio-visual and rational.

    The axial-flow pump with axial gaps of 10,20,30,40mm between impeller exit and stator inlet are simulated by CFD software, based on the standard k-ε turbulence model, using the adaptive grid in the ANSYS Workbench. The influence of different axial gaps on performance of the axial-flow pump is researched, and distribution of axial velocity on the exit of impeller is discussed under different axial gaps. The numerical results of head and efficiency are close to the experimental results. The results show that changes of the axial gap have a significant impact on pump performance. Properly increasing the axial gap can improve the performance of pump at lower flow rate conditions.

    In order to understand the pressure fluctuation induced by impeller-volute interaction and to analyze the unsteady pressure field existing in the volute of a high-speed centrifugal pump with splitter blades, the standard turbulent k-ε model and SIMPLEC algorithm were chosen for the unsteady flow in a high-speed centrifugal pump. With obtaining pressure signals at different locations on the tongue and the volute, the numerical results indicated that main blades had the indispensable effect on the pressure fluctuation, rather than splitter blades. The number of main blades played a key role on the unsteady flow phenomenon in the volute. Decreasing the number of main blades could shorten the period of pressure fluctuation. The analysis showed that the 2 times of blade passing frequency dominated the pressure fluctuation in the tongue and the volute of the pump with splitter blades, and the amplitude of pressure fluctuation induced by splitter blades should be shorter than that induced by main blades.

    High fluorine groundwater is widely distributed and endemic fluorosis is serious in the southwest of Shandong Province. High fluorine groundwater is closely correlated with the soil and rock, landform, climate and groundwater runoff condition. In addition, human activities, for example farming pollution, may increase fluoride of groundwater. The situation of rural drinking water safety is severe, which mostly resulted from high fluorine groundwater. The following countermeasures can be adopted to solve the problem of drinking water insecurity in the southwest of Shandong Province: drilling deep wells for low fluorine water or building plateau reservoirs for surface water and rainwater, using coagulating sedimentation to reduce fluoride in water where low fluorine water is unavailable. Furthermore, it is important to enhance management of drinking water projects and to build management system and operation mode to ensure the long-good running of projects.
