Each year, hundreds of rescue missions are conducted along the coasts of Norway and Denmark. Under challenging conditions, both volunteers and professional rescue crews work to save humans lives and equipment.
Building a port on land takes time. On water, the job can be done quickly. Hagbart Skage Alsos and his research colleagues at SINTEF are investigating how to build floating ports.
Nurses are increasingly overloaded. This is especially true in nursing homes and in home care, as shown by the results of the latest nursing survey.
One of Norway’s largest production kitchens makes 2500 meals a day. The focus on food waste, simple tools and identifying deviations shows that it is possible to save 300 meals a month through donations.
Climate change is increasing the risk of flooding and other extreme events across Norway, placing greater emphasis on climate adaptation measures that deliver the highest socio-economic benefit.
European coastal areas are under increasing pressure. Researchers are investigating ways to reverse this trend and help communities adapt to climate change.
UNCDF and SINTEF join forces to explore how bold concepts can become practical solutions – across technology, policy, finance, and collaboration.
The new company SINTEF Ocean Software is being established to consolidate and focus SINTEF Ocean’s expertise with the simulation and analysis tool SIMA, for maritime and floating structures.
SINTEF and NIVA deliver important contributions to a new UN panel ready to tackle challenges regarding chemicals, waste, and pollution.
A new EU-funded project will support Europe’s energy transition by creating more resilient, decarbonised energy systems by advancing hydrogen electrolysers.
Fishing alone is a dangerous occupation. A new safety alarm could save lives by automatically stopping the boat and alerting the Coastal Radio Service and nearby vessels.
Europe’s largest project for zero-emission, hydrogen-based heavy-duty transport is strengthening its collaboration to deploy 125 hydrogen-powered trucks across six European countries. The first trucks are expected to be in operational use in 2026.
Wouldn’t it be great if you could just take a picture of yourself with your mobile phone and sew your own clothes – in exactly the right size and fit? The solution is on its way.
A recent sustainability study from the ZeroKyst project has examined whether Norwegian fishing vessels can realistically use battery-electric and hydrogen fuel-cell technologies to achieve zero emissions.
To gain more knowledge about how ultra-processed food affects us, we need new research methods, claim researchers. Now they are looking to better understand our intestinal flora.
