Norway and the other in the USA, are analysed for their potential to be electrified with overhead line equipment, batteries, hydrogen or hydrogen-battery hybrid powertrains. The energy requirements are established with single-train simulations, including the altitude profiles of the lines, air and rolling...
...entrainment protects concrete against internal cracking in both frost- and salt frost testing. There are several ways to identify requirements to air content and as well as to the air void system for the concrete to be frost durable, and there are different ways to document it. Investigating the potential...
...meetings and conducting 17 interviews. Through the lens of Relational Coordination Theory (RCT), we analyzed the use of the goal-setting framework Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) and the collaboration tool Slack. Slack was used for frequent, timely, and problem-solving communication and, and its use...
Mapping of quick clay is important for hazard zonation, planning and protection purposes. The present study focuses on an area prone to quick clay landslides in mid Norway, which is investigated through a combination of geophysical and geotechnical methods. The following classes are suggested for a first-order...
White Light Interferometry (WLI) is widely used for rapid and accurate topographic measurements of surfaces. By creating three dimensional images with lateral sizes from several millimeters to some tens of micrometers, both large and small samples can be studied. The introduction of a separate laser...
...negative impacts. Marine growth obstructs net openings, thereby reducing water exchange through the net and affecting fish welfare and health, as well as the spreading of dissolved nutrients, particles and pathogens. Furthermore, additional water blockage leads to increased hydrodynamic forces on fish cages...
...we investigate the state of hygiene in a salmon processing plant using next generation sequencing and classical culture-dependent methods to characterize the surface microbiota before and after cleaning and disinfection (C&D) at ten surface sampling points. Total aerobic counts revealed an average reduction...
...inefficient and expensive, the centralization of the heat and power generation at an offshore hub is thought to have the potential to be an energy and cost-efficient solution. This paper aims to develop an innovative cost-efficient concept for a clean offshore energy hub for supplying low-carbon heat and power...
...electrical energy, hydrogen, methane, and water is a crucial aspect to deal with in integrated local energy communities (ILECs). The ILEC stands for a set of active energy users that maximise benefits and minimise costs using optimisation procedures in producing and sharing energy. In particular, the proper...
