Human Activity Recognition (HAR) systems are devised for continuously observing human behavior - primarily in the fields of environmental compatibility, sports injury detection, senior care, rehabilitation, entertainment, and the surveillance in intelligent home settings. Inertial sensors, e.g...

Aquaponics is gaining renewed interest to enhance food security. This study aimed to investigate the performance of a novel off-grid aquaponics system with near-zero water and waste discharge, focusing on the carbon cycle and energy recovery that was achieved by the addition of onsite anaerobic...

The ethics of AI in industrial environments is a new field within applied ethics, with notable dynamics but no well-established issues and no standard overviews. It poses many more challenges than similar consumer and general business applications, and the digital transformation of industrial...

The use of nanobiomaterials (NBMs) is becoming increasingly popular in the field of medicine. To improve the understanding on the biodistribution of NBMs, the present study aimed to implement and parametrize a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model. This model was used to describe the...

State-of-the-art in vitro test systems for nanomaterial toxicity assessment are based on dyes and several staining steps which can be affected by nanomaterial interference. Digital holographic microscopy (DHM), an interferometry-based variant of quantitative phase imaging (QPI), facilitates reliable...

Bakgrunn: Det er et mål at minst 30 prosent av dialysepasienter skal benytte hjemmedialyse. Tett oppfølging fra spesialisthelsetjenesten er vesentlig for å øke pasientenes trygghets- og mestringsfølelse i hjemmebehandlingen. Utgangspunktet for studien var en nyrepoliklinikk der sykepleiernes...

The investment costs of water electrolysis represent one key challenge for the realisation of renewable hydrogen-based energy systems. This work presents a technology cost assessment and outlook towards 2030 for alkaline electrolysers (AEL) and PEM electrolysers (PEMEL) in the MW to GW range taking...

Knowing the position of a moving target can be crucial, for example when localizing a first responder in an emergency scenario. In recent years, ultra wideband (UWB) has gained a lot of attention due to its localization accuracy. Unfortunately, UWB solutions often demand a manual setup in advance...

Fluidization is a well-established and widely used technology in the process industry. The production stability and the large effective contact area between the active substances, resulting in high mass and heat transfer between the phases, are some of the main advantages of fluidization. However...

The objective of this paper is to document experiences of hazard-analysis and risk analysis of automated passenger ferries planned to be operated in sheltered waters in Norway. The operation of autonomous ferries in Norway requires permission from the Norwegian Maritime Authority. This paper aims to...

The railway industry is undergoing modernization and development with increasing use of new technology and digitalisation. In addition to physical security requirements, systems need to be secured against cyberattacks from outsiders. In addition, there are other quality requirements like scalability...

Accelerated testing is widely used in development and pre-qualification of protective organic coatings. In this work 26 coating systems have been investigated in a 2-year C5 atmospheric exposure field test, ISO 9227 salt spray test, ISO 12944-9 cyclic ageing and ISO 16773 electrochemical impedance...

Although Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PZT) piezoelectric thin films are finding widespread applications on Earth, it is yet unclear if they are suitable for space-related applications. In space, their long-term reliability is a significant concern due to the difficulties of repairing and replacing malfunctioning...

Security and scalability are core software qualities, which as non-functional aspects share certain characteristics and challenges in how they are approached during software development and operation. Based on expert interviews, this paper explores interactions and dependencies between security and...

Incinerator Bottom Ash (IBA) originates from incineration of municipal waste. The waste contains a fraction of metal where some is aluminium. Unless proper treatment, the bottom ash ends up either in landfills or in best case as building material. Aluminium recovered from IBA can be recycled and...
