Han, Fei (author), Zhang, Mengru (author), Li, Zhe (author), Liu, Zhe (author), Han, Yufei (author), Li, L. (author), Zhou, Weizhi (author)Marine microorganisms have an inherent advantage in the treatment of saline wastewater due to their halophilic properties. Ammonium assimilation is the most important and common nitrogen conversion pathway in the ocean, which means that it may be a suitable nitrogen removal strategy under high salinity conditions. However, the targeted...journal article 2023

Zhou, Zaiyang (author), Ge, Jianzhong (author), van Maren, D.S. (author), Kuai, Y. (author), Ding, Pingxing (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author)Existing knowledge about groyne-induced effects is primarily based on riverine or coastal environments where salinity gradients are absent or limited. However, in estuaries, salinity gradients drive physical processes such as longitudinal and lateral residual flows. The effect of groynes is much more complex because they can modulate channel...journal article 2023

Robin, M.P. (author), Guis, R.H. (author), Arabul, Mustafa Umit (author), Zhou, Zili (author), Pandey, Nitesh (author), Verbiest, G.J. (author)Conoscopic interferometry is a promising detection technique for ultrafast acoustics. By focusing a probe beam through a birefringent crystal before passing it through a polarizer, conoscopic interferences sculpt the spatial profile of the beam. The use of these patterns for acoustic wave detection revealed a higher detection sensitivity over...journal article 2023

Zhou, Y. (author), Daamen, W. (author), Vellinga, T. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Currently, the research on ship behavior during encounters focuses on evasive behavior during specific situations with existing risks of collision. However, the preliminary selection of encounters to refine the presented ship behavior is biased. To obtain a full understanding of all ship behavior during different encounters in ports and...journal article 2023

(author)In order to damp the resonance in the MMC-based Arbitrary Wave shape Generator (AWG) used for high voltage testing, an active damping control methodology is proposed in this paper instead of the passive damping with an arm resistor. It is vital to ensure the system’s stability when such an active damping closed loop control is implemented....conference paper 2023

Yan, L. (author), Golestan, Mohammad Hossein (author), Zhou, Wenyu (author), Hassanizadeh, S. Majid (author), Berg, Carl Fredrik (author), Raoof, Amir (author)Low salinity water flooding is a common technique for enhancing oil recovery; however, the mechanism behind the low-salinity effect, positive or negative, is still not fully understood. In the proposed mechanisms, osmosis and emulsification are considered as two potential reasons for explaining the oil remobilization, but the specific...journal article 2023
