We find solutions for health challenges related to economic, social and political conditions for people's health in a globalised world. Research Areas Wellbeing...

By using simulators in training and education of health professionals, we can achieve greater safety for the patient, as well as a more efficient training. We investigate how surgeons can...

The application of cooperative intelligent transport systems (C-ITS) is one of the most significant tools to enable a more secure, efficient, and accessible transportation system. At SINTEF, we...

While a set of development principles can be identified in standards and manuals, analysis of alternative solutions to transportation challenges must be performed. Our experts at SINTEF are...

CO₂ has gone through a renaissance as refrigerant due to the need to replace the chemical refrigerants with highly negative environmental impact. The main applications where CO₂ systems has been...

We stimulate the development of new, improved Norwegian health products – based on requirements in the health sector. A large proportion of our activities is concerned with stimulating ideas. We...

The research group is working with new technology in marine plankton and juvenile production. In addition, there is a strong focus on marine biotechnology in microalgae. Production and sale of...

Hydropower has meant a lot for Norwegian industry and Norway's welfare. From hydropower inroads until today there has been a significant development in the analysis of impacts of hydropower...

SINTEF is proficient within several scientific fields relevant for nuclear power and also holds expertise on nuclear power specifically. We work widely within process technology, energy balances,...

Every year society faces significant challenges due to flood events and with the ongoing climate change, these challenges are expected to intensify. The ability of hydropower to manage and...

The concept of Virtual Synchronous Machines (VSMs) is emerging as a flexible method for controlling power electronic converters in power system applications. The main incentivess for developing...

From 1982 to 1993, IKU (Continental Shelf Institute, now SINTEF Petroleum) mapped parts of the Norwegian continental shelf using a combination of shallow, high-resolution seismic and shallow (max...

In order to interpret correctly seismic data, it is crucial to understand how the rocks located above petroleum reservoirs (typically shales) affect the measurements. SINTEF has unique competence...

The use of local heating and cooling plants has obtained new interest in light of the "energy crisis". In Norway several plants are under construction and there are plans to build more....

The costs for repair and maintenance of high voltage equipment installed in deep waters can be very high. Therefore, high operating reliability is crucial for the components placed at the seabed....

Electrical energy conversion can be defined as the conversion of a set of values ​​of current, voltage and frequency to a different set of such values. The transformer is such an apparatus for...
