Pan, Tanbo (author), Zheng, Yonglai (author), Zhou, Y. (author), Wu, Zhuorui (author), Zhou, Yujue (author)Externally bonded (EB) carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) is widely used in structural strengthening and retrofitting. Premature debonding of the FRP severely limits the efficiency of CFRP utilization. The application of CRRP anchorage system offers a solution to the debonding problem. However, the understanding of damage mode identification...conference paper 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

Zhou, C. (author)Climate change is incompatible with the assumption of stationarity. This has lead to a sharp increase in the detection and study of nonstationarity in hydro-meteorological processes. Most hydro-meteorological processes are still analyzed by studying time series of observations. From the perspective of statistical characteristics, a stationary...doctoral thesis 2022
