Managing urban water supply systems is challenged by several factors, including increased pressure on water resources with respect to both quantity and quality. In addition, digitalization of the water sector has increased system complexity, including interdependencies between physical and digital...

This work addresses the problem of detecting gas dispersions through concentration sensors with wireless transmission capabilities organized as a distributed Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). The concentration sensors in the WSN perform local sequential detection (SD) and transmit their individual...

This work proposes a data fusion approach for quickest fault detection and localization within industrial plants via wireless sensor networks. Two approaches are proposed, each exploiting different network architectures. In the first approach, multiple sensors monitor a plant section and...

The purpose of this work was to examine the impact of the inadequacies in the current procedure for car tyre labelling, specifically in the context of environmental noise, and to present the benefits of adopting more realistic procedure with the use of low-noise tyres. This was done using two...

Minstekravene i TEK er ikke noen garanti for fullgodt inneklima i små leiligheter i byen. Det viser resultater fra et omfattende forskningsprosjekt ledet av Sintef....

Reservoir computing on quantum computers has recently emerged as a potential resource for time series prediction, owing to its inherent complex dynamics. To advance Quantum Reservoir Computing (QRC) research, we have developed the Python package QuantumReservoirPy, which facilitates QRC using...

This report assesses the impact of climate change on the foundation settlements of selected cultural heritage structures in Longyearbyen and Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard. Utilizing climate projections from the Norwegian Meteorological Institute, the study evaluates potential foundation instability driven by...

Detailed ground thermal simulations are performed for Longyearbyen, revealing significant shifts in active layer thickness and permafrost temperatures due to climate change, with the active layer projected to increase in thickness by 2070 and permafrost warming significantly. Ground thermal...

Denne studien undersøker omfanget av og trend i det totale korrigerende vedlikeholdet (KV) som er identifisert, men ikke er utført («KV totalt»), og sammenhengen dette har med rapporterte hendelser og spørreskjemadata i RNNP, i perioden 2015–2023. Rapporten inneholder detaljerte resultater av...
