Extent of resection after surgery is one of the main prognostic factors for patients diagnosed with glioblastoma. To achieve this, accurate segmentation and classification of residual tumor from post-operative MR images is essential. The current standard method for estimating it is subject to high...

This paper summarises the main findings from the full-scale Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analyses conducted at SINTEF Ocean on the case of MV REGAL, which is one of the benchmark vessels studied in the ongoing joint industry project JoRes. The numerical approach is described in detail, and...

A comprehensive physicochemical characterization of heterogeneous nanoplastic (NPL) samples remains an analytical challenge requiring a combination of orthogonal measurement techniques to improve the accuracy and robustness of the results. Here, batch methods, including dynamic light scattering (DLS...

Valve regurgitation is a cardiac condition caused by the incomplete closure of a cardiac valve. Untreated, this condition may result in cardiac failure. Regular monitoring of this condition is essential in guiding the decision process for surgical intervention. Current guidelines recommend a multi...

In order to achieve IMOs carbon reduction targets in maritime transportation, it has become imperative for ship operators to make well-funded business decisions regarding ship technology and fuel selection. This paper proposes a decision-making model for the decarbonization of liner shipping...

With the recent focus on hydrogen, seaborne shipping is considered an option for the large-scale transport of liquid hydrogen (LH2). For efficient shipping, boil-off gas (BOG) from the cargo tanks needs to be optimally utilized. This work suggests a BOG handling system (BHS) producing fuel for...

This work presents a full-system simulator consisting of a generic power system integrated with a vessel model and real-time capabilities. The whole system simulation facilitates evaluating the overall system performance by considering components’ interactions according to the maneuvering and...

Alternative feed ingredients for farmed salmon are warranted due to increasing pressure on wild fish stocks. As locally farmed blue mussels may represent an environmentally sustainable substitute with a lower carbon footprint, we aimed to test the potential and safety of substituting fish meal with...

This thesis is addressed to engineers and researchers working with powder bed fusion (PBF) additive manufacturing (AM) and provides insight into anisotropic mechanical properties for metals subjected to static and dynamic loading. Three common AM materials are investigated; Inconel 718, AlSi10Mg...

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are bioaccumulative and associated with adverse effects in both wildlife and humans. The occurrence of 33 PFASs was assessed in the plasma, liver, blubber, and brain of 18 Baikal seals (Phoca sibirica) (16 pups and 2 adult females) from Lake Baikal, Russia...
