The main goal of the function test was to measure the accuracy and general performance of the detection equipment. We found that the accuracy varied greatly with factors such as manufacturer, physical properties of the detection site and traffic characteristics....

...of automation, analytics, data visualization, quality improvement, and much more. Effective implementation of new technology requires knowledge and competency that usually takes time to develop. For many companies, demonstrations and hands-on experience accelerate technology adoption by providing clear...

We consider a hierarchy of hyperbolic models describing single-component two-phase flows in pipelines, with applications to CO₂ capture and storage. The hierarchy is characterized by the number of equilibrium assumptions made. We present a formal proof that every additional level of enforced equilibrium...

...results from the activities on surveillance and condition monitoring in work packages WP 5 (2009-2014) and WP B (2015) in the NOWITECH research centre. The research covered both condition monitoring systems, remote inspection technologies and models for estimating and monitoring technical condition of wind...

...investigated how impurities affect the design and operation of CO₂ transport and storage processes. Experimental work and modelling have advanced the state of the art in the areas of how impurities in CO₂ affect thermo-physical properties, fluid flow, corrosion, and reservoir chemical reactivity. High-quality...

...conducted using Norway spruce wood as feedstock at an operation temperature of 350 °C and with a total reaction time of 15 minutes. The bio-crude product was collected and separated using dichloromethane (DCM) as solvent and a centrifugal separator. The results confirm that heating rate has a clear positive...

...promising energy resource for a more sustainable global energy outlook. Thermochemical conversion of biomass is a very attractive and important technology for energy generation and production of value-added products such as charcoal. With the aim of studying the internal processes taking place when thermochemical...

In order to handle the increased uncertainty in future electric power generation and demand, probabilistic models should be used to model the risk when choosing among the different planning alternatives. If probabilistic data are available for the decision variables (e.g. historic observations), then...
