The innovative and economic potential of Manufactured Nano Materials (MNMs) is threatened by a limited understanding of the related Environment, Health & Safety (EHS) issues. NANoREG is the first FP7 project to deliver the answers needed by...
Early in January 2013 the Norwegian Directorate of Health completed a work study of models for municipal co-financing of mental health and drug abuse (TSB).
SINTEF has been commissioned by the South-Eastern Norway Regional Health Authority conducted an activity and capacity analysis of Akershus University Hospital (Ahus HF). The mission has included mapping of activity and capacity for today's hospitals...
TAG CLOUD develops digital services with the aim to increase interest in cultural heritage. Personalization is central to the approach: The services will provide cultural information adapted to user interests. Personalization applies to both...
"Water within your reach" is the catch-phrase for the project Rainwater Harvesting (RWH) for resilience to climate change impact on water availability in Ghana. Improved access to drinking water and adaptation to climate change by way of local...
El-certificates is a support-mechanism for renewable electricity production. Well-functioning tools for forecasting of prices, and the balance between demand and supply of certificates, are needed for this system to operate efficiently. Power...
The idea of IMPACTS is to close identified knowledge gaps related to transport and storage of CO2-rich mixtures from various CO2 sources to enable realisation of safer and more cost-efficient solutions for CCS.
The project goal is to provide new and important knowledge of cooperative and communicative structures between the multilevel collaborating parties working together on several areas, among them the IA Agreement and the Job Strategy.
Biomass measurement of plankton is a time consuming, but critical component in order to maintain a stable, controlled culture. Often solved manually and off-line, the task includes time-consuming counting of cells in which samples must be transported...
The Government's Jobs Strategy for People with Disabilities is aimed at people under the age of 30 with disabilities who are not included at the labour market. SINTEF has been commissioned to evaluate the implementation of the strategy. The main...
The primary objective of the LEANWIND project was to provide cost reductions across the offshore wind farm lifecycle and supply chain through the application of lean principles and the development of state-of-the-art technologies and tools.
New stochastic optimisation model for Scandinavia In future, the Scandinavian power supply system will have closer connections with Europe and an increasing proportion of uncontrollable renewable generation from, for example, wind and unregulated...
The BEPPo project has been focusing on marine renewable energy (wave, tidal and offshore wind), building on the innovative capacity of ports to become a basis for the production of integrated sustainable renewables. In this way the project has been...
The concept of CyclicCO2R is to create a process that removes the dependency on fossil fuel and increases the energy efficiency to create a net CO2 uptake in the production of cyclic carbonates.
The theme for the research project called "Health by Numbers" was how statistics on health and care in the municipalities are used and requested. The project was a collaboration between SINTEF Technology and Society, Group of Health Services Research...
Lab4MEMS aims to establish a European Pilot Line for innovative technologies on advanced piezoelectric and magnetic materials, including advanced packaging technologies to meet the ever evolving market needs.
SINTEF Materials and Chemistry is developing a method that can improve the diagnosis and treatment of many different diseases. This method may lead to an easier process to treat the exact place in the body with the right amount of medicine.
eFairway's idea is to establish technological solutions for an interactive fairway as an integral part of the eNav concept developed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). This involves the development, adaption and integration of...
