Wind power can replace power from gas turbines and thus reduce the CO2 emissions related to oil production. However, a main challenge with wind power is the variability in power production due to weather variations. The water injection pumps are often major power consuming units. The water pumps...
Shallow geothermal reservoirs are excellent candidates for low-enthalpy energy storage, and can serve as heat batteries providing constant discharge of base heat, as well as rapid discharge of heat in periods of high demand. Recharging can be done by pumping down hot water, heated using excess heat...
Nyvinning kan stimuleres gjennom offentlige innkjøp. Akutten ved St. Olavs hospital viser vei og har lykkes gjennom en helt uvanlig idéjakt....
We present a multiscale approach to model a windfarm under real meteorological conditions. The multiscale model consists of a mesoscale atmospheric code coupled to a stochastic ocean wave model, a microscale model and a super-microscale model. The mesoscale model (with 2.5km×2.5km horizontal...
Først og fremst var et innovasjonsprosjekt med mål om å utvikle og ta i bruk en behovsdrevet og brukerstyrt digital læringsteknologi for å øke digital kompetanse i den norske skolen. Teknologien fra prosjektet skulle også forsterke den nasjonale satsningen "Sammen redder vi liv" og temaet...
This paper discusses components of service in healthcare. Four components of a service (service customer, service worker, service setting and service process) were introduced. Yet these components have not been explored in healthcare cases. We identified the key components through our case study...
Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) make up a significant part of European economies. Despite their economic importance, they are often described as poorly placed to deal with cyber risks because of resource constraints or commercial interests. Providing appropriate tooling would facilitate a...
A time-multiplexing approach to multi-frequency receiver operation is introduced in this paper, wherein a single-frequency receiver platform is configured to dynamically re-tune to each of a selection of different carrier frequencies to produce multi-frequency measurements. The development of a...
Bleached and unbleached pulp fibers were treated with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpyperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) mediated oxidation to obtain cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs). The resulting bleached and unbleached CNFs were mixed with salicylic acid (0, 5, 10, 20 wt%) before casting and freeze-drying or 3D-printing...
The need for new digitally enhanced solutions has led companies in traditionally non-digital industries to explore the potential of digital innovation. Various process frameworks claim their ability to support this endeavor by facilitating the digital innovation process. However, such frame-works...
Spaceflight is a key asset for Europe, providing essential information needed by decision-makers to respond to global challenges (ESA, 2016). ISECG (The International Space Exploration Coordination Group) - constituting several space agencies - has created a Global Exploration Roadmap. The roadmap...
The concept of twinning has been extensively investigated in a range of metallic (e.g. Au, Ag, Cu and Pt) nanoparticle systems. However, the experimental strategy for introducing twinning in magnetic nanoparticle systems remains a grand challenge and unexplored to date. This is important to control...
