The launch and recovery of equipment such as remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) is a critical task that defines the operability limits of many marine operations. This paper considers the analysis of control systems that are designed to maximize the operability limits for launch and recovery of a ROV...

The microbiota of recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) is of major importance for optimal fish health. However, the microbial communities in commercial RAS are highly complex and more knowledge is needed to potentially control and maintain beneficial microbial communities for good fish production...

Safety in road tunnels are of utmost importance for the public notion of safety within the road system. In recent years, there has been significant progress in multiple areas of artificial intelligence, sensor fusion and communication technologies. Together with increase in computing power, this has...

...e-health programs carry promise to support self-management of chronic illness, including chronic pain. Whether such programs succeed depends not only on patients' acceptance and adherence, but also on health care providers’ attitudes and willingness to support the use of such programs. Health care...

Som del av prosjektet ”Temperaturstyring fra fangst til marked”, oppdragsgiver FHL Filetforum, har SINTEF Energiforskning og Fiskeriforskning deltatt i vurderingen av en nytt konsept for produksjon av filet som er utviklet av den islandske bedriften Skaginn. Det ble gjennomført 15 enkeltstående...

Traceability will be an immensely important subject for the food and fish industry the forthcoming years. From August 12th 2004, registration and prior notice sent in electronic form with a wealth of traceability information is required for all food shipments to the US (Bioterrorism Act PL...

Estimating feature importance, which is the contribution of a prediction or several predictions due to a feature, is an essential aspect of explaining data-based models. Besides explaining the model itself, an equally relevant question is which features are important in the underlying data...

Green infrastructures (GIs) have in recent decades emerged as sustainable technologies for urban stormwater management, and numerous studies have been conducted to develop and improve hydrological models for GIs. This review aims to assess current practice in GI hydrological modelling, encompassing...

Spaltet og løs filet er det som i størst grad begrenser anvendelsen kjølt råstoff til ferske filetprodukter og det er fysisk belastning under filetering og skinning som ødelegger filetene. Hypotesen i forsøket var at riktig superkjøling av råstoffet før filetering vil gi mindre filtspalting under...

This research explores shading potential for improving the thermal properties of a box-window. Two different types of shades along with three placements were considered. Ten configurations were tested in a hot-box apparatus and compared to base window performance. Condensation issues that may arise...

Flushing is a common corrective action recommended by Legionella management guidelines to remove stagnant water and replenish disinfectant. Due to water age and different local regulations, buildings may receive water with low or no residual disinfectant. In such situations, the evidence for...

The isotropic homogenous assumption in the conventional Geertsma model is often contradicted by reality because the rock properties in the overburden are typically anisotropic and often can be quite different from the reservoir. Thus, we present an analytical solution that extends Geertsma's...
