Wang, Feifei (author), Zhou, Jie (author), Pan, Jiazheng (author), Zhang, Haiting (author), He, Chiquan (author), Duan, Xiaodi (author), Hofman, Jan (author), van der Hoek, J.P. (author)Nitrate concentrations exceed standards in many drinking water sources. Solid carbon source (SCS) is usually used to increase the biological denitrification in waters with a low carbon‑nitrogen ratio. However, there is a lack of research on the enhanced denitrification in drinking water sources with nitrate exceeding limits by the...journal article 2024

Zhou, Hanxiao (author)Large amounts of oily wastewater which included oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, also known as produced water (PW), were produced in tandem with the enhanced oil recovery (EOR). Ultrafiltration (UF) was an effective and economic method to separate micron-sized O/W emulsions, while the membrane fouling limited its development. Understanding the...master thesis 2023

Zhou, Jing (author)Explainable AI (XAI) has gained increasing attention from more and more researchers with an aim to improve human interaction with AI systems. In the context of human-agent teamwork (HAT), providing explainability to the agent helps to increase shared team knowledge and belief, therefore improving overall teamwork. With various backgrounds and...master thesis 2023

Zhou, Wenyu (author)This study evaluates the performance of the CMIP6 models in simulating monsoon rainfall and moisture tracking in the Yangtze River basin. The findings reveal varying degrees of accuracy across different regions of the basin during the monsoon period. Downstream and midstream regions demonstrate higher accuracy, whereas upstream areas exhibit...master thesis 2023

Zhou, Shanwei (author)A F1 car is always in a dynamic flow when racing. The most common case would be acceleration, deceleration and turning a corner. Due to the new rule by FIA since 2021, ground effect is much more significant for F1 car. Limited by the experimental set-up of F1 teams, flow under the car and accelerating flow are hard to be measured quantitatively....master thesis 2023

Zhou, Xiaochuan (author)Rural electrification remains a significant challenge for engineers, given its intricate relationship with multiple issues, including geographical constraints and underdeveloped infrastructural provisions. As a result, with the development of Solar Home Systems (SHS) and direct current (DC) microgrids, DC systems for energy access have emerged...master thesis 2023

Zhou, Longyi (author)Through both the lens of sustainability and current events, particularly the pandemic, there is an increasing awareness of the importance of adaptability and intensive use of buildings. In the Netherlands, one form of adaptability and intensive use emerged in the second half of the 20th century in school buildings. One of the main ideas is that...student report 2023

Zhou, Hanxiao (author)Constant flux MF/UF filtration is preferred in real-world applications because it <br/>provides more consistent permeate flow rates than fixed transmembrane pressure studies. Particularly, little is understood about the fouling of ceramic membranes in constant flux filtration modes by nano-sized O/W emulsions. In this study, the effects of...student report 2023

Zhou, Ying (author)In most food manufacturing research and design (R&D) projects, sustainability is not considered until the scalability testing or production phase, when cost reduction is the objective or when many consumers directly request it. However R&D teams are highly focused on their predetermined goals at the beginning of the process. It is...master thesis 2023

On the use of common random numbers in activity-based travel demand modeling for scenario comparisonZhou, H. (author), Dorsman, J. L. (author), Mandjes, M. (author), Snelder, M. (author)Activity-based travel demand models provide a high level of detail when modeling complex travel behavior. Since stochastic simulation is used, however, this high level may induce large random fluctuations in the output, necessitating many model reruns to produce reliable output. This may become prohibitive in terms of computation time when...journal article 2023

(author), Zang, Bin (author)The present study assesses the ability to numerically predict turbulence-interaction noise of a NACA0012 airfoil with grid-generated turbulence by utilizing the Lattice Boltzmann solver PowerFLOW. Both the near-field flow characteristics and far field noise are bench-marked against an existing experimental study. The grid was chosen to match...conference paper 2023

Zhou, Jianfeng (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Cozzani, Valerio (author)Fire is one of the main accident scenarios occurring in chemical and process plants, and it can lead to domino effects due to thermal radiation. Emergency response is necessary to prevent fire escalation, in addition to safety barriers. In major industrial fire accidents, backup is usually required in emergency response, due to the lack of...journal article 2023

Zhou, H. (author), Dorsman, J.L. (author), Mandjes, M. (author), Snelder, M. (author)Nowadays, many cities are intending to reduce the use of private vehicles. Governments are incorporating new mobility services and are adapting their parking policies to promote a more sustainable mobility, as both strategies are believed to have the potential to reduce private vehicle use. To understand the effects of these strategies, one...journal article 2023
