...panels, wave power and wind power will give us the green energy we need when cars, factories and light aircraft are to run on electricity. But today, this electricity is transported from the solar panels to the electric cars via an ageing electricity grid. As the ways we produce and use electricity...

A completely rewritten module system that removes the distinction between "blessed" modules developed by SINTEF and modules developed by...
According to a theory advanced by a SINTEF materials scientist, a mixture of water from sprinkler systems and molten aluminium from melted aircraft hulls created explosions that led to the collapse of the Twin Towers in Manhattan. Just before the two New York skyscrapers collapsed on September 11, 2001...

Hans Tobias Slette at SINTEF says that now that the fish farming sector is looking to operate with bigger facilities and more fish in each net pen, reliable calculations of oxygen availability are more important than ever. Here we see him demonstrating a so-called miniDOT, which is a device for measuring...
Researchers at SINTEF and the University of Lund have investigated how we respond to various safety measures in case of fire in the tunnel. The illustration is taken from the VR film that the subjects got to see. Standard “A cloud of smoke rushed towards me at tremendous speed”, says SINTEF researcher...

Tomorrow’s offshore oil will be highly viscous – and it will be a heavy job to bring it ashore. But newly-won knowledge is offering hope for fields that today would have been turned down by the economists. In the future it will quite literally be a heavier task to bring offshore oil ashore than it has...

Intersection algorithms for spline and NURBS curves and surfaces have been a central research topic since 1980. The first challenges addressed were related to the intersection of B-spline curves, and the intersection of B-spline curves and elementary curves. Then in 1984 we got the first results on recursive...

...northern European offshore power grid is the massive investment being made in wind power in the Baltic and in and around the North Sea. The aim here is to reduce CO2 emissions by as much as between 80 and 95 per cent by 2050. "If this project is to succeed, we must secure stable electricity supplies", says...
