    Abstract: Conducting the hyperspectral study of soil salt content in Hetao irrigated area, Inner Mongolia, the results demonstrated that converting the original spectra to continuum reflectance could highlight the important band site i.e. peak and trough of wave, which was beneficial for establishing stepwise regression model (R2=0.589,RMSE=0.327) for soil salt content’s quantitative inversion. On one hand, the partial least square regression method could build models by means of non-normal data of soil salt content; on the other hand, the built model had higher accuracy (R2=0.695) and more stability (R2=0.756) than stepwise regression method. The optimum result (R2=0.989, RMSE=0.368) was acquired after logarithm and first order differential transform of hyperspectra.

    By using 3D Dynamic Mesh technique, the numerical simulation of the unsteady flow field in a roto-jet pump was performed in this work. The surface motion of the impeller computational domain was defined by the Profile file in Fluent commercial code, in which the rotational direction and speed of the impeller were specified. In the simulation by means of Dynamic Mesh technique, all the computational domains, as stationary, were set in an inertial reference frame. Three methods (Spring-based Smoothing, Dynamic Layering and Local Remeshing) were used to achieve mesh deformation. The time-dependent relations of velocity field, pressure, the outlet flow rate and the radial force were obtained by this unsteady simulation. After a startup stage the flow starts to exhibit time-periodic behavior corresponding to blade passing frequency of impeller. Radial force direction from the axis points to the back of the pick-up pipe. This work shows that Dynamic Mesh technique could achieve numerical simulation of three-dimensional unsteady flow field in roto-jet pump and have a strong versatility and broad application prospects.

    In accordance with the spiral case with cushion layer in one hydropower station, the effect of the friction coefficient between the spiral case and the cushion layer on the structural mechanical characteristics of the spiral case, together with the effect of friction coefficient between the spiral case and the concrete, was analyzed by finite element method. The results show that the coefficient of friction between the spiral case and the cushion layer has small effect on the stress and displacement of the surrounding concrete. Similarly, the friction coefficient between the spiral case and the concrete has no obvious effect on the displacement of the surrounding concrete. However, it makes a great difference to the stress and reinforcement of the concrete. When the friction coefficient increases from 0.25 to 0.60, particularly at the bottom, the circumferential stress of each section increases by around 14% and the areas of reinforcement by about 30% on average. However, it seems that this friction coefficient value 0.25 used in many previous researches, is a bit smaller according to relevant tests, thus it is relatively unsafe for the reinforced concrete structure. Therefore, the coefficient of friction between the spiral case and concrete should be selected carefully in the contact nonlinear analysis.

    Aiming at the power transformer maintenance management, we proposed maintenance strategy based on risk assessment. We use the risk assessment theory to consider transformer fault probability, the loss of assets and the operating loss, to assessment transformer operation risk. We extrapolate the probability of failure of transformer on the basis of the transformer real-time status information. We can get the loss of assets through the transformer assets and degree of loss. We get the operating loss through the over-limited power flow, the over-limited voltage, the loss of load and many other indicators. We use ALARP principle to rate risk assessment results for transformer operation, make different maintenance strategies according to different risk levels .The risk-based assessment of electricity transformer maintenance strategy is effective after we verified some examples.
