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

Zhou, Y. (author), Liang, M. (author), Yue, X. (author)Large errors can be introduced in traditional acoustic emission (AE) source localization methods using extracted signal features such as arrival time difference. This issue is obvious in the case of irregular structural geometries, complex composite structure types or presence of cracks in wave travel paths. In this study, based on a novel...journal article 2023

(author)Microbes offer designers opportunities to endow artefacts with environmental sensing and adapting abilities, and unique expressions. However, microbe-embedded artefacts present a challenge of temporal dissonance, reflected by a “time lag” typically experienced by humans in noticing the gradual and minute shifts in microbial metabolism. This...conference paper 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

Li, Erlei (author), Shen, Haopeng (author), Wang, L. (author), Wang, Geoff (author), Zhou, Zongyan (author)The shape variation of the laser beam is evidently observed in the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process because of changes in laser incidence angle and misalignment between the build plate and the laser focus plane. This issue is particularly relevant in large-scale LPBF systems where the laser beam needs to scan a large build area. However...journal article 2023
