It is an important way to consolidate the content of theoretical teaching, cultivate students 'practical ability and develop students' innovative thinking. Especially with the deepening of China's higher education reform and the continuous expansion of enrollment scale, the original experimental teaching system, content, methods, equipment, etc. in many ways can not meet the new requirements of personnel training. Yantai University Engineering Mechanics Experimental Teaching Center, through the construction of student-centered, ability-based training as the core of the experimental teaching system and platform, improve the "virtual combination, virtual reality is complementary, can not be true, but also designed in the student" experiment teaching concept, in accordance with the students from cognitive to practice and then to the process of innovative design, developed with independent intellectual property rights of multi-functional materials such as mechanical testing machine equipment, make full use

    Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 507 Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Education, Language, Art and Inter-cultural Communication (ICELAIC 2020) Study on Literary Space in the Landscape of "Eight Views" Li Hou1 Jianjun Kang1,2,* 1"Belt and Road" Region Non-common Languages Studies Centre of Liaocheng University, Liaocheng, Shandong 252059, China 2Institute of Literature of Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences, Nanchang, Jiangxi 330077, China * Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Poems in ancient dynasties involve relatively typical local landscapes and cultural regions, which can be reflected in the writings of ancient poets many times. With regard to the poems on regions, a lot of contents are related to the study of landscape, so the poetry text will show a certain regularity, which enables the study on the geographical landscape and literary space of the "Eight Views". This thesis focuses on the study of the literary space in the landscape of "Eight Views". Taking the Eight Views in DongChang as an example, each of them incorporates its unique historical and cultural connotations. The "Eight Views of DongChang" are almost all humanistic landscapes, reflecting the interaction between humanistic landscapes and canal landscapes. The full text elaborates the basic situation of the Shandong Canal’s geographic landscape and literary space in the Ming Dynasty. It is believed that the opening of the Shandong Canal and the changes and development of the landscape have affected the creation of poetry and literature, and in turn the literary works has also reflected the landscape of the Shandong Canal.

As an important germplasm resource, semi-wild wheat plays an important role in the study of wheat processing quality. Results: In this study, Four dough rheological characteristics were therefore collected in four environments using a nested association mapping (NAM) population, consisting of semi-wild and domesticated wheat varieties, which were used to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) for wheat processing quality. Using an available single nucleotide polymorphism genetic linkage map, a total of 49 QTL for wheat processing quality were detected, explaining 0.36–10.82% of the phenotypic variation. These QTL were located on all wheat chromosomes except for 2D, 3A, 3D, 6B, 6D and 7D.

How to discover the characteristics and rules of the game from a large amount of technical and tactical data, how to overcome the shortcomings of traditional statistical methods, and how to provide a scientific basis for correct decision-making are a top priority. Based on 5G and association analysis data mining theory, we established a data mining model for tennis technical offensive tactics and association rules and conducted specific case studies. It can calculate the maximization and distribution rate of certain technologies, also distinguish between the athlete’s gain and loss rate and the spatial position on the track, and use artificial statistical methods to cause errors and subjective participation.
