Slooff, F.A. (author), Zhou, J. (author), Duszczyk, J. (author), Katgerman, L. (author)The commonly used hyperbolic sine constitutive equation for metal forming at elevated temperatures, with no strain incorporated, is in principle applicable only to deformation in the steady state. However, the actual deformation processes applied to magnesium alloys are mostly in the non-steady state. In the present research, the results of hot...journal article 2008

Eivani, A.R. (author), Ahmed, H. (author), Zhou, J. (author), Duszczyk, J. (author)The presence of large constitutive particles formed during solidification decreases the strength and hot workability of aluminum alloys especially when they are located in the grain boundary (GB) regions. Therefore, the evolution of these phases is a major issue in the homogenization process of these alloys. There is a lack of information on the...journal article 2009

mao, R. (author), Yu, S.C.M. (author), Zhou, T. (author), Chua, L.P. (author)Lobe-forced mixer is one typical example of the passive flow controllers owing to its corrugated trailing edge. Besides the spanwise Kelvin–Helmholtz vortex shedding, streamwise vortices are also generated within its mixing layer. The geometrical configuration of the lobe significantly affects these two types of vortices, which in turn affects...journal article 2009

Zhou, Y. (author), Bauer, P. (author), Ferreira, J.A. (author), Pierik, J. (author)Doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) still shares a large part in today's wind power market. It provides the benefits of variable speed operation cost-effectively, and can control its active and reactive power independently. Crowbar protection is often adopted to protect the rotor-side voltage source converter (VSC) from transient overcurrent...journal article 2009

Kleinknecht, A. (author), Dekker, R. (author), Zhou, H. (author)Firms with high shares of workers on fixed-term contracts have significantly higher sales of imitative new products but perform significantly worse on sales of innovative new products (“first on the market”). High functional flexibility in “insider-outsider” labor markets enhances a firm’s new product sales, as do training efforts and highly...journal article 2009

Eivani, A.R. (author), Ahmed, H. (author), Zhou, J. (author), Duszczyk, J. (author)This research concerns the effect of homogenization treatment on the electrical resistivity of AA7020 aluminum alloy variants with different Zr and Cr contents. Small changes in the Zr and Cr contents of the as-cast alloy increase the electrical resistivity significantly. After employing various homogenization treatments, the electrical...journal article 2009

Zhou, J. (author), Qian, S. (author), Sierra Beltran, M.G. (author), Ye, G. (author), Van Breugel, K. (author), Li, V.C. (author)Nowadays limestone powder and blast furnace slag (BFS) are widely used in concrete as blended materials in cement. The replacement of Portland cement by limestone powder and BFS can lower the cost and enhance the greenness of concrete, since the production of these two materials needs less energy and causes less CO2 emission than Portland cement...journal article 2009
