Accelerated aging tests have been performed to determine the influence of coastal climate (salt mist) on connectors for use to transfer power from shore to vessel batteries. The test objects were CCS Combo 2 (DC) and Type 2 (AC). The tests simulate about three and a half years of operation in...

På Norsk bygningsfysikkdag 25. november får du høre om utfordringer og løsninger for tak og fasader, og mange andre aktuelle anbefalinger....

Digital twins have a wide range of applications, and the interest in digital twins from academia and industry has increased substantially in recent years, which has been confirmed by annual market growth and the number of publications per year. The initially loose interpretation of the term digital...

Hydrogen has been seen as a possible energy carrier in the transition toward carbon neutrality. To make large-scale hydrogen use feasible, an extensive distribution network is needed. Pipelines are the most efficient way to transport hydrogen over long distances, and reusing existing natural gas...

Leading up to the ISEE-conference in Oslo, June 24-27. 2025...

In response to the request from the Parliament (Stortinget), the Norwegian Environmental Agency (Miljødirektoratet) proposed 3 July a regulation to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions from offshore vessels working on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. It shall also stimulate development of zero...

Model-scale testing of floating wind turbine substructures is an integral part of design verification. Yet, both the test-facility and Froude-scales used, raise questions over the suitability of the hydrodynamic coefficients obtained. In this study, experimental measurements from towing tank tests...

With the rapid rise of hydrogen-based technologies toward sustainable energy solutions, understanding and mitigating hydrogen embrittlement (HE) has become increasingly critical. HE threatens the structural integrity and performance of steels in demanding industrial applications. Addressing this...

Light metals such as Mg and Al are of high interest for lightweight engineering applications in various industries. However, their susceptibility to corrosion, poor tribological properties, and moisture sensitivity limit their direct use. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) is a commonly used...

The EU-funded project ACCSESS is delighted to invite you to an open online event exploring management of captured CO₂, using Central Europe as a case study. It will explore the opportunities of CO₂ utilisation and the recent development of European CO₂ infrastructure and how CO₂ specifications can...

Quantifying products’ environmental impacts is essential as policymakers and customers push for transparency and accountability in product sustainability. The applications of machine learning (ML) have extended to many fields, including environmental science. Several studies demonstrate the...

Waiting until water damage occurs is expensive. But it also doesn't make financial sense to replace pipes too early. We looked into the best time to do it....

Det er en kjent utfordring i helsetjenesten å få til god pasientflyt mellom ulike deler av tjenesten. Samtidig tegnes også et utfordringsbilde med økning i andelen eldre pasienter med sammensatte, kroniske lidelser og nedsatt funksjonsevne, som vil ha behov for helsehjelp fra en helsetjeneste som...
