    In this paper, in order to investigate the natural modes of the rotor system of turbocharger, the analytical model of floating-ring bearing, the FEM and modal test technology were employed. Firstly, based on Reynolds equations of the dynamic oil layer of floating-ring bearing, the oil layer pressure was obtained by using the finite difference algorithm. Then the stiffness coefficients and damping coefficients were calculated by using integration method. Next the FEM model of rotor system with supporting stiffness of floating-ring bearings was established. Then the natural modes of rotor system were simulated with considering the oil layer stiffness of the floating-ring bearings and the rotor’s rotating speeds. Lastly, the natural modes were identified with modal test technology and furthermore the FEM calculation results were verified. The investigation shows that the oil layer stiffness of the floating-ring bearings and rotating speeds of the rotor have great influences on vibration modes of the rotor system

    Plant respiratory burst oxidase homolog (rboh) genes appear to play crucial roles in plant development, defense reactions and hormone signaling. In this study, a total of seven rboh genes from grape were identified and characterized. Genomic structure and predicted protein sequence analysis indicated that the sequences of plant rboh genes are highly conserved. Synteny analysis demonstrated that several Vvrboh genes were found in corresponding syntenic blocks of Arabidopsis, suggesting that these genes arose before the divergence of the respective lineages. The expression pattern of Vvrboh genes in different tissues was assessed by qRT-PCR and two were constitutively expressed in all tissues tested. The expression profiles were similarly analyzed following exposure to various stresses and hormone treatments. It was shown that the expression levels of VvrbohA, VvrbohB and VvrbohC1 were significantly increased by salt and drought treatments. VvrbohB, VvrbohC2, and VvrbohD exhibited a dramatic up-regulation after powdery mildew (Uncinula necator (Schw.) Burr.) inoculation, while VvrbohH was down-regulated. Finally, salicylic acid treatment strongly stimulated the expression of VvrbohD and VvrbohH, while abscisic acid treatment induced the expression of VvrbohB and VvrbohH. These results demonstrate that the expression patterns of grape rboh genes exhibit diverse and complex stress-response expression signatures
