...case study investigated how ICT can support children with ADHD and/or autism and their families in their daily activities. We focus in particular on the suitability of mainstream technology for such support. Two cases are presented, and implications for practice are discussed. The findings indicate that...

This paper reports new viscosity data for unloaded and CO 2 -loaded aqueous 3-amino-1-propanol (3A1P) solutions. For the unloaded system, experiments were performed over the whole concentration range at temperatures between 298.15 and 373.15 K. In the case of a CO 2 -loaded system, measurements...

...a-Fe2O3 (hematite) and (N-doped) graphene oxide (GO) were investigated using first- principles calculations with focus on structure, chemical bonding, electronic structure and H₂O adsorption. The nanocomposites were modeled as the interface between the a-Fe2O3 (0 0 0 1) surface and the basal plane of...

The Advanced Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) Detection Analysis and Alerting System (ARFIDAAS) projects focus on providing Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) users and GNSS-based service providers with low latency notifications of the detection of Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) impacting...

Background: Globally, nearly half of all deaths among children under the age of 5 years can be attributed to malaria, diarrhoea, and pneumonia. A significant proportion of these deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa. Despite several programmes implemented in sub-Saharan Africa, the burden of these illnesses...

Service lifetimes of polymers and polymer composites are impacted by environmental ageing. The validation of new composites and their environmental durability involves costly testing programs, thus calling for more affordable and safe alternatives, and modelling is seen as such an alternative. The state-of-the-art...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the life-cycle costs (LCC) and energy performance of different heating and ventilation systems (HVAC) in deep-energy renovation of Norwegian detached houses. Eight different HVAC combinations based on heat pumps are compared using two case buildings, with different...

...describes safety and security challenges and best practices of the use of drones in the oil and gas industry, with consideration of the harsh weather conditions in the Northern Territories of Norway. We have described the present status of the use of drones in air, on water (surface) and under water. Drones...

...application, two new materials with molar ratio La/Ni<2 are presented in this publication and their transport properties for the first time reported. Furthermore, selected results on membrane fabrication, sealing technology and assembly of small modules are presented to demonstrate the progress of the work....

...paper discusses and evaluates the effects of an information security awareness programme. The programme emphasised employee participation, dialogue and collective reflection in groups. The intervention consisted of small-sized workshops aimed at improving information security awareness and behaviour. An...
