...perspective in FME ZEN. The FME Research Centre on Zero Emission Neighbourhoods in Smart Cities (ZEN) has chosen Living Labs to address user engagement and as a framework for the organisation of user involvement in pilot projects. Work on user involvement in ZEN has also been carried out outside the activities...
...equipment are the reporting, classification and analysis of failure data. However, experience shows that considerable manual effort is needed to attain high-quality data, and therefore, this report investigates possibilities for automated failure reporting and failure class determination. The proposed...

It contains a brief definition and provides examples of use and outlines a model for organisations to use when introducing XR technologies in their organisation. In the appendixes a list of current XR systems and development...
Policy-based management is an approach to the management of systems with respect to issues such as security, access control and trust by the enforcement of policy rules. This paper addresses the problem of integrating the requirements imposed by a policy with the system development process. In order...
... one spill sample and three source samples, have been prepared by SINTEF. The Spill sample was collected from a buoy in a drifting oil slick in the North sea close to the border between the Norwegian and British sector. There are several suspected sources, both from platforms and passing ships. Three...
...temperatures and reduced snow cover, which threatens the possibility to exercise winter sports activities near populated areas in the future. Temperature Independent Snow (TIS) production can contribute to increase the snow reliability for winter sport. However, this method is very energy intensive and to reduce...
Norwegian economy and in global value chains of a reduction in household consumption of textiles driven by higher prices, of the investment of collected eco-fees in the textile waste management, and of the consumption shift to other goods and services. We find that, on the medium and long term, the total...
...describes a study of day-ahead (DA) and intraday (ID) trade for a hydropower producer with a single reservoir and power plant. The study simulates the trade decisions and plant operation in a rolling-horizon setup where DA decisions are reoptimized on a daily basis and ID decisions are reoptimized on an...
STAS software, for the system dynamics and control of wind power plants. An overview is given of the theory behind the STAS software, and the architecture of the system model. A wind turbine control system has been designed, which is well-suited to the STAS model and the upcoming research on plant control...
...performed activities and deliverables within the Monitoring of Arctic lnfrastructure project (MonArc) in 2019 and gives references to field data records collected in 2017-2019. Settlements of surveyed buildings in 2017-2019 are presented. The performed activities include scientific and logistical planning...
...the temperatures, airflows and relative humidity in all the ducts very close to the air handling unit were needed to calculate the field efficiency. The initial goal was to measure in nine different buildings and give some inputs regarding the discrepancy between rated and measured efficiency in buildings...
A major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions is the production of concrete and steel for the construction industry. This report presents a comparison of the life cycle GHG impact of a concrete and steel load-bearing structure with a wood load-bearing alternative. The basis for the comparison...
Trains movement on a railway network are regulated by the official timetables. Deviations and delays occur quite often in practice, asking for fast rescheduling and rerouting decisions in order to avoid conflicts and minimize overall delay. This is the real-time train dispatching problem. In contrast with...
...the power consumption for different vessel types, and list some of the highest loaded consumers in different operations. In this brief study we are using Electrical Power Load Analysis (EPLA) as the data source. This also comes with a fewshortcomings and the results will be influenced by design factors...
ADSL, VDSL and SHDSL in 0.4 mm twisted pair cables. An important part of the work has been to investigate the compatibility between different DSL systems. The range of SHDSL system compliant with ITU G.991.2 Annex G has been analysed. These systems allow for bitrates up to 3.848 Mbit/s and 5.696 Mbit/...
...running under EU's 7th Framework Programme, theme 7 Transport, including Aeronautics. The project has developed and is demonstrating a new generation of altimetry module, suitable for fixed wing and rotary wing applications, which will give altitude accuracy capabilities significantly improved over those...
