The Node, Edge, and Arc Routtng Problem (NEARP) was defined by Prins and Bouchenoua in 20011. This problem generalizes the classical Capacltated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP), the Capacitated Arc Routing Problem (CARP), and the General Routing Problem. It captures important aspects of real-life routing...
A review is performed on the description of evironmental conditions in Norwegian coastal areas in relation to Large Floating Coastal Structures and the planning of long floating bridges across fjords. First, an outline of some geographic location of possible crossing sites in various fjords is documented...

PlaneRay is a ray tracing program for modeling of underwater acoustic propagation s with moderately range-varying bathymetry and bottom parameters. The sound speed of the water may vary with depth, but not with range. The bottom can be a fluid sedimentary layer over an elastic half space with geo-acoustic...
This white paper presents a new set of guidelines developed to address important carbon capture and storage (CCS) cost issues in three areas. The first area of study tackles the establishment of improved guidelines for cost evaluation of advanced low-carbon technology (such as a new CO2 capture process...
...included to estimate the viscosity limits and the time window for dispersant use. The laboratory data were used as input to the SINTEF Oil Weathering Model (OWM) for weathering predictions from a surface release of Tyrving at sea at 5 and 15 °C, reflecting winter and summer conditions. The weathering properties...
