In this study, a thermo-elasto-viscoplastic model is developed for a low density cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) in an attempt to describe the combined effects of temperature and strain rate on the stress-strain response and the self-heating of the material at elevated strain rates. The proposed...
An experimental two-phase flow campaign with a viscous oil (100 cP) was conducted in the Large Scale 8" loop at the SINTEF Multiphase Flow Laboratory. The loop consisted of three main test sections, with pipe inclinations 0, 0.5 and 90 degrees, and with approximate lengths of 380 m, 380 m and 50 m...
Functionalized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) based materials were applied as coatings for pre-treatment of aluminium substrates. Organosilanes with specific functional groups were selected as additives to the POSS matrix. Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) pigments containing corrosion...
Background: Atherosclerosis is a lipoprotein-driven disease that leads to plaque formation at specific sites of the arterial tree through intimal inflammation, fibrosis, necrosis, and calcification. Sometimes such plaques may suddenly cause life-threatening coronary thrombosis clinically described...
ERIFORE – European Research Infrastructure for Circular Forest Bioeconomy – has been an Infradev-1 project (GA No 654371, 1.1.2016 – 31.1.2018) under Horizon 2020 Framework Programme. The future mission of the ERIFORE consortium is to establish an open access distributed research and innovation...
Klimatilpassede bygninger og bygningskonstruksjoner benyttes som fellesbetegnelse for konstruksjoner som planlegges, prosjekteres og utføres for å motstå ulike typer ytre klimapåkjenning – fra nedbør, snøavlagring, vind, solstråling, temperatur og flomvann gjennom sin tilsiktede levetid. Det...
