...composite cements due to mounting environmental awareness and the diminishing natural resources. In composite cements considerable parts of the clinker is replaced by supplementary cementitious materials. Within two STAR’s we will focus on the fly ash and limestone as replacements for part of the clinker. This...

This survey paper reviews the recent heuristic and metaheuristic solution methods for the well-known capacitated vehicle routing problem and arc routing problem as well as several extensions of the basic problems related to the supply side. Among the discussed extensions are time dependent travel times...

...on Valhall crude oil at 13 °C in 2021. Dispersibility testing on Valhall included the dispersant Dasic Slickgone NS to estimate the viscosity limits and time window for dispersant use. In a previous study on Valhall (Moldestad et al., 2001), the dispersibility limits were based on Corexit 9500A. ...

A weathering study has been conducted on Utgard condensate. The weathering study is based on a small-scale laboratory testing at 13 °C. The SINTEF Oil Weathering Model (OWM) is used to predict the weathering properties of Utgard at sea. The weathering properties of Utgard are discussed in relation...

There is an urgent need to provide food and feed ingredients for the growing world population while tackling the problem of food loss at a global scale at the same time. Solutions for reducing food loss and strengthening the bio-economy were in main focus areas for the first symposium arranged by...

...on 23 different road surfaces, including an ISO-surface.All measurements have been performed with a CPX-trailer at 50 and 80 km/h. A frequency analysis of all combinations of tyres and road surfaces has been made. A ranking analysis of noise levels is included, where the ranking on the on the ISO-surface...

A standardized bench-scale and meso-scale flume testing weathering study has been conducted on Lille Prinsen crude oil at 13 °C. The dispersibility testing on Lille Prinsen was included to estimate the viscosity limits and time window for dispersant use. The laboratory data were used as input to the...

The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) are gathering an overview of the global, regional and national terrain of aquaculture/fish farming occupational health and safety and related social and welfare impacts. This report is Norway's national profile and presents the status of occupational health...

The aim of this pre-project has been to give a "State-of the art" and describe the R&D challenges and documentation needed in order to perform robust NEBA (Net Environmental Benefit Analysis) where SubSea Dispersant Injection (SSDI) is included as an acceptable countermeasure option. In spill scenarios...

...research activity and results obtained in the project Numsim - Numerical simulation of complex systems involving interaction between elements with large and varying stiffness properties. Main focus of the project has been to develop numerical time-domain simulation models for fisheries and aquaculture systems...

Denne rapporten beskriver definisjonen, nøkkelindikatorer og vurderingskriterier som benyttes i forskningssenteret for nullutslippsområde i smarte byer (ZEN-senteret). Denne andre utgaven av ZENdefinisjonen bygger på versjon v.1.0 av ZEN-definisjonen (1). ZEN-kategoriene klimagassutslipp, energi og...

...pumps, refrigeration systems and chillers (vapour compression systems) that use natural refrigerants, in the maritime sector. The first part gives a context, introducing the international organisations aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the shipping industry, and defining the topic of refrigerant...

...transport modes, road, sea, air and railway, have identical needs and challenges with respect to freight and passenger transport related to the use of information and communication technology (ICT). They also see much of the same shortcomings related to the transport preparation and planning, transport services...
