...provide simulation tools for two water-based enhanced oil recovery techniques, namely polymer and surfactant injection. Polymer is injected with water to reduce the unfavorable mobility ratio between oil and water, by increasing the water viscosity. Permeability reduction effects also increase the sweep...
...reference vessel to which the new design was compared. Emissions to air and water were taken into account in the environmental footprint case study where two fuel and engine options (diesel engines with MDO and dual fuel engines with LNG and MDO) for the project vessel were evaluated. Life Cycle Assessment...
COPD is a disease that develops gradually and often over many years. For this reason, it is mainly the elderly who receive the diagnosis, and this is why the high levels of drug use are worrying researchers. Photo:Thinkstock. The results were published recently in an article in the International Journal...
Two full scale tests were carried out in spring and autum 2013 to assess the effect of sweep length on herding of fish during semi-pelagic trawling for cod and haddock. The results showed that sweep length can have a significant effect on the catches. Fixing the 450-kg chain weights right in front of...

...operations and make them more efficient. Our main focus will be on construction vessels that sink install offshore subsea modules, says research manager in MARINTEK, Svein Peder Berge. The project has a three-year budget of NOK 21 million, half of which comes from the Research Council of Norway and the rest...
The building industry has not taken on board the idea of adapting to local climatic conditions, and is mainly supplying identically designed houses all over the country. Norwegian houses will be plagued by damp in the future, says the scientists, Photo: SINTEF Building Research. A good example...

In GAIA II we have addressed alternative approaches for approximate implicitization, such as approximation with lower order piecewise algebraic curves and surfaces...
...temperature fracture behaviour is one of the main concerns regarding steels and weldments for Arctic applications. In Arctic Materials I project, properties of steel and weldments at low temperature (mainly at -60°C) were investigated, and the first generation guideline was proposed.

Our bodies cannot distinguish between nanoparticles and viruses, but we have immune cells that specialise in consuming and removing viruses. However, the same cells also consume nanodrugs, and this may offer us new immunotherapies to help combat cancer. Stock photo: Shutterstock Standard Researchers...
