...annoyance, but reactions to a given noise exposure vary wildly. The Norwegian Defence Estates Agency and SINTEF ICT Acoustics have teamed up to strengthen the connection between the aircraft noise situation and the annoyance response of airport neighbours. For this purpose, we have assessed annoyance due...
Our research focus on risk reduction in autonomous systems by associating Deep Learning (DL) predictions with the inherent model and data uncertainty. Autonomous vehicles can only operate reliably if they have robust 6-degrees of freedom (6- DoF) localization capabilities. Basing critical autonomous...
...climates. Good performance at low temperatures can minimize or even eliminate the need for active thermal management. Combined with aqueous processing and fluorine-free constituents, this minimises the environmental impact at all lifecycle stages. The project's core focus is the development of entirely...
...standard train timetabling, strategic timetabling can usually overlook some operational aspects, such as crew and rolling stock scheduling. On the other hand, each strategic timetable is completely new (and usually very different) from the others, eliminating the possibility of warm starting the solution process...
...according to the available investment funds. SINTEF's task is to ensure that the functional requirements addressed in the master plan are fulfilled, and help the project to meet the requirements set by the South-Eastern Regional Health Authority. The new wing is phase two in the building process. SINTEF...
...conditions for biomass combustion plants The main objective of STOP is to develop new strategies for improved operating conditions control in biomass and biomass residues combustion plants through: The utilization of more homogenous fuel with minimized season variation Optimized fuel in terms of pollutant...

...we will be able to report quantity, size and species of fish entering the trawl. This can be used to optimize the catch to make trawl fishing more sustainable. The H2020 Smartfish project developed smart fisheries technology for an efficient, compliant, and environmentally friendly fishing sector. Sintef...
...using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) are well-suited for this purpose. Measurement with great accuracy It is crucial to measure deep into the fish and at multiple points to obtain a good estimate of the average water content. An accuracy of approximately ±1.1 % points is achievable with NIRS when Cross-section...
GustoMSC is about to finalize an optimized, cost effective Tri-Floater concept design. This study will assess the effect on the floater, the mooring system and the power cable system for three sites reflecting different water depths with typical associated met-ocean conditions. The study will also investigate...
Giantleap aims to increase lifetime and reliability of fuel cells in buses After the encouraging results of the Sapphire project, SINTEF leads the Giantleap project, which through similar techniques aims to increase the lifetime and reliability of fuel cells in another, more challenging domain: automotive...
...manufacturing SMEs have easy access to technologies needed to deploy a digital twin The project has received funding from EU’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme, Grant Agreement nr. 951956 The consortium consists of 18 partners To achieve this goal, Change2Twin offers an end-to-end funding...
...infrastructure by adding a quantum computing environment. Users will enjoy a versatile, yet unified environment consisting of several Nordic quantum computers and quantum computer simulators. This increases the overall value of the ecosystem, by enabling prompt uptake of high-end quantum computing technologies...
...launched a research project to investigate the conversion of the ENGIE Ultra-SuperCritical coal-fired Rotterdam power plant into a biomass-fired heat and power plant. The innovative technology used to produce the required steam treated biomass has been developed by the Norwegian company Arbaflame AS....
