    With the continuous consumption of global fossil resources, the conversion of renewable resources has become the focus of scientific researchers. The catalytic conversion reaction of bio-based lower alcohols obtained by the biological or chemical conversion of biomass is a hot research topic in recent years. In order to efficiently explore a variety of model catalytic reactions, a gaseous flow bubbling generator is developed to replace the feeding process of the traditional fixed-bed reactor. The purpose is to carry out different model catalytic reaction exploration experiments. By comparing the experimental results of the two equipments, it is shown that the gas flow bubbling generator has the characteristics of small error, fast test and simple operation. In addition, the advantages of its small footprint and portability are just right for a variety of in-situ characterization techniques. By combining the gas flow bubbling generator with the in-situ diffuse reflection infrared spectroscopy, students are able to study the theoretical knowledge of the infrared spectroscopy and the working principles of instruments, and integrate the basic knowledge on catalysis that have learned.

    In the study of biometrics recognition, the fusion experiment of soft biometrics has always adopted the fusion model between the main features. Soft biometrics are different from the main features in terms of application scope, recognition ability, etc. The fusion mechanism between the main features cannot effectively mine and utilize the discrimination information in the soft biometrics, resulting in less ideal and accurate experimental results. Based on this, this paper deeply analyzes the characteristics of soft biometrics, and puts forward the requirements of ‘effective complementarity’ and ‘personalized fusion’. Based on the quantified effective complementarity, and combined with the goal of ‘minimum error rate’, this paper establishes a local fusion model for each user using the least squares method. The proposed fusion model is applied in face and fingerprint recognition experimental scenarios to verify the rationality of the analysis and the effectiveness of the proposed method in promoting the recognition performance.

    Inter-turn short circuit fault is the most common fault of dry-type air-core reactor, which may cause insulation damage, fire or even burn out of the reactor in serious cases. It is of great significance for the safe operation of the power system to diagnose the inter-turn short circuit fault as early as possible and give effective early warning. A new method is presented for diagnosis of inter-turn short circuit of dry-type air-core reactor based on magnetic field detection: detection coils that are independent of the reactor body and coaxial with the reactor winding are installed up and down. By adopting the mathematical statistics 3σ Criterion model and algorithm to detect the changes of the induced voltage of the detection coils, the inter turn short circuit fault of the reactor is determined and early warning and alarm are given. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, the induced voltage changes of the detection coils are simulated and analyzed when inter turn short circuit faults occur at different positions of a BKGKL-20000-35 dry type air-core reactor based on the finite element numerical calculation software. The proposed method has also been validated through on-site prototype testing. It is reliable and effective, and can be widely applied in practical power systems.

    Rutherford scattering experiment is one of the classical experiments in the history of nuclear physics. In consideration of the safety of the radiation source, there is few experimental practices of Rutherford scattering theory in domestic and foreign universities, which limits the understanding of micro-structure of atomic nuclei and microscopic interactions with matters. In response to the above questions, a Rutherford scattering virtual simulation experiment was developed based on Unity3D. The experimental scenes are realistically reproduced and the reliability of the experimental data is guaranteed through Monte Carlo simulation. The experiment content covers the use of semiconductor α spectrometers, verification of the differential cross-section formula of Rutherford scattering, and the application of Rutherford back-scattering in material analysis. The virtual simulation experiment provides more references for the experimental teaching of modern physics experiments, nuclear physics experiments, and materials characterization experiments, and enriches the experimental projects for the nuclear physics experimental teaching.

    The undergraduates majoring in non-electrical disciplines always feel difficult in studying electronic circuit course for its extensive content and high systematicity. For inadequate instruments, the corresponding experimental course sometimes fall out of step with the theoretical course. Moreover, most experiments aim at verification of some specific theoretical concepts with lacking integration. As a result, the experiments could not effectively leverage its strength to play a supporting role for the theoretical course. Aiming at the present problems, a series of visual reality experiments based on Multisim software are designed as supplements. A teaching mode is built by combining “virtualization-reality” and “point-surface”. The physical experiments are designed independently according to each chapter, which focus on helping the undergraduates comprehend the theoretical points and develop hands-on skills in practice. While the VR experiments emphasize connections among the key points from different chapters, which extend the width and depth of experimental contents to cultivate the ability of the students in analyzing and solving concrete problems. Innovations in the experimental teaching mode could effectively motivate the enthusiasm of the students from non-electrical disciplines in studying electronic circuit courses and thus improve the teaching performance of electronic circuit experiments.

    Most of the existing unconventional oil and gas reservoirs in China are tested with cylindrical samples by the false triaxial test device. However, under the condition of true triaxial, the edges of cube specimens are mostly deficient in edge flow and face seal. Based on the existing true triaxial test device and a large number of experiments, the existing seepage sealing method of cube specimen with single rubber sleeve was improved. This paper introduces the structural features of nested sealing sleeve, especially the design of the seal in the edge area, puts forward the structural design of the top and bottom end of the sealing sleeve concave with a single hole mesh groove, and discusses the size of the top pressure transfer plate. Taking the 100 mm×100 mm×100 mm cubic coal sample as an example, the true triaxial seepage test analysis was carried out, and the permeability under different inlet seepage pressures under true triaxial confining pressures was obtained. The improvement of the sealing methodddd is helpful to improve the permeability test accuracy of unconventional oil and gas reservoirs under in-situ stress conditions in scientific research institutions and testing centers, and improve the practical innovation ability and scientific research accomplishment of high-end scientific research talents.

    A signal detection experimental equipment using the ZPW-2000 frequency shift signal detection method is designed, which is based on the cycle frequency measurement method. The experimental track circuit frequency shift signal detection apparatus has an field programmable gate array(FPGA) at its core. The side frequency detection method uses two counters to detect the upper and lower jumping edges of the counting signal, and the counting error is reduced to 0-1 counting signal cycle by choosing the larger value of the two sets of counting values. The side frequency detection error can be controlled within 0.07 Hz under the counting signal of 200 MHz. The detection method uses eight counters to realize the detection of shifted frequency information. In order to achieve the acquisition of low-frequency components in the frequency-shifted signal as well as the detection and calculation of low-frequency frequency, the low-frequency detection employs six asynchronous counters, respectively. The experimental instrument measurement demonstrates that the side frequency and low-frequency detection error can meet the requirements of the railway standard TB/T 3532—2018 in the frequency shifted signal up and down the side frequency error of ±0.15 Hz and low-frequency error of ±0.03 Hz. The experimental instrument can accurately calculate the shifted frequency information, which is based on the FPGA ZPW-2000 frequency shifted signal generator. The experimental equipment breaks the limitations of specialized equipment in teaching and experiment, and help students better understand how track circuits are coded and detected.
