Diffusion measurements and thermal desorption measurements have been performed on a X70 pipeline steel, in as received and normalized and quenched condition, after being hydrogen charged for 200 h at 100 MPa hydrogen gas pressure and 85°C. Numerical simulations based on the assumption of thermodynamic...

...performance of such technologies is, therefore, difficult. This raises the question if these technologies can be applied on larger ships that need approval and safety certification. The issue gains further complexity when introduced as an element in remote control centres. This paper presents an overview of...

It is crucial to ensure that stored CO₂ does not leak into the atmosphere. As the last step in the Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) process, CO₂ is injected into underground formations, and it should remain stored there for eternity. However, when reusing old petroleum wells for CO₂ storage, defects in...

Friction and wear of polymers at the nanoscale is a challenging problem due to the complex viscoelastic properties and structure. Using molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate how a graphene sheet on top of the semicrystalline polymer polyvinyl alcohol affects the friction and wear. Our setup...

Background: Pregnancy, infancy, and childhood are sensitive windows for environmental exposures. Yet the health effects of exposure to nano- and microplastics (NMPs) remain largely uninvestigated or unknown. Although plastic chemicals are a well-established research topic, the impacts of plastic particles...

...ship lifecycle inspection, analysis and condition information (LIACI). It contains 1893 images with pixel annotations for ten object categories: defects, corrosion, paint peel, marine growth, sea chest gratings, overboard valves, propeller, anodes, bilge keel and ship hull. The images have been collected...

The open international standards for exchange of information (Information Foundation Classes, IFC) and the definitions of what to be exchanged (International Framework for Dictionaries, IFD) are emerging as the new standards in building information modelling. Together with an emerging third standard...
