We wished to find out if the notation is understandable and what level of expressiveness can be achieved. Other project participants were given a set of composition exercises, and they answered a set...

Viewpoints The Covid-19 pandemic only served to exacerbate existing inequalities across the world. The poorest and most vulnerable were the hardest hit by the pandemic and its aftermath. And in the face of our current global economic challenges, their situation is becoming even worse. This ought to wake...

A minute sensor to the rescue
It isn’t often that things go so wrong as to cause the collapse of a wind turbine. However, new sensors can be used to identify defects and ensure that such events are even rarer. “Most big problems start as small ones”, says SINTEF researcher Guido Sordo. Standard Research scientist Guido Sordo compares...
Some SINTEF highlights from 2012
Norwegian invention since 1980. The technology enables us to transport oil, gas and water in one and the same pipeline, and has contributed to enormous value creation by the Norwegian petroleum sector. Research groups at IFE and SINTEF have played central roles in the development of multiphase technology...

Without CCS, the world will be unable to achieve the aim of limiting the global temperature...
Making food from water
Rune Petter Ness “To put it very simply, you could say that we are trying to produce fish feed and dietary supplements from seawater”, says SINTEF’s Jose Rainuzzo. More precisely, the Peruvian scientist and his colleagues are exploring the properties of a micro-organism that lives everywhere in the ocean...
A project funded by the European Union and led by SINTEF in Norway with ten other European partners aims to demonstrate a cost-effective CO2 capture technology that could herald a new generation of power-generation plants with integrated CO2 capture. Power generation based on fossil fuels is one of...

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...
