Organisations of Persons with Disabilities (OPDs) are critical to promoting and protecting the rights of people with disabilities. However, little is known about the extent to which people with disabilities are aware and members of OPDs. This study uses data from nine population-based surveys in low...

A privacy notice is a document/notification that is addressed to consumers, describing how their personal information will be handled. While browsing the Internet, installing an app on smartphone, setting up a smart sensor or IoT devices in personal spaces, consumers are often asked to consent to...

The consumer IoT is now prevalent and creates an enormous amount of fine-grained, detailed information about consumers’ everyday actions, personalities, and preferences. Such detailed information brings new and unique privacy challenges. The consumers are not aware of devices that surround them...

Wind power production is intermittent due to varying wind conditions. This leads to frequent temperature changes in the wind farm transformers, which in turn affects the lifetime of the transformer winding insulation. To extend the lifetime through prediction of effects from dynamic loading, new...

The transport sector accounts for around 25 % of global energy use, considering both fuel production and consumption. To mitigate climate change, a fast decarbonization of transport is therefore often seen as a necessity, as advocated by the International Energy Agency in its Net Zero by...

In the ever-evolving area of digital transformation, following responsible and sustainable practices is essential. This editorial article discusses the importance of responsible digital transformation, emphasizing the need for academia, private and public organizations, civil society, and...

CYBERLAB investigates the dynamic behaviour of wind parks with shared mooring systems,. In such systems, a set of platforms (here 9 semi-submersibles) are interconnected, and only some of them anchored to the sea bed. Given the massive upscaling of floating wind in the years to come, shared mooring...

Access to channel data, and real-time processing of such, have left us a landscape filled with beamforming techniques often using specific wavefronts with specific reconstruction algorithms. This implies high costs for code maintenance and makes it difficult to compare different techniques. We...

This paper presents a validation of the AROME-SIMRA model, which is a nested computational fluid dynamics model that simulates both mesoscale and microscale phenomena. To validate the model, we analyzed 47 h of mean flow data collected by 13 three-dimensional sonic anemometers. These anemometers...

Workshop om energikrisen i Europa i regi av NTVA, FME NTRANS, FME ZEN, FME Cineldi, FME HydroCEN, Include og DNVA. Målet med seminarserien er å diskutere og systematisere det tverrfaglige faktaunderlaget innenfor tematikken. ...

Negative emissions and Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) at scale is required to offset hard to reduce emission streams and remove historic emissions from the atmosphere. CDR relies on and intervenes with the basics of earth systems such as the ocean, land, soil, and the atmosphere. This implies...
