The work has focused on the development of new methods and models that can be used in inventories for assessing forest biomass, including roots, stem and branches. Very little has previously been done on assessing the biomass estimation of roots and branches. This has been the topic for Aaron Smith's dissertation...

In order to remove these bottlenecks, the main objectives of NanoPV are: To develop technologies that can increase the efficiency and reduce the processing cost of existing silicon solar cell...
...low levels of sulphur and nitrogen oxides. This would result in lower local air pollution. Photo: Thor Nielsen Branches, tops, lopwood and brushwood that are left in felled areas after the timber has been extracted are now set to become more than just an irritation to hikers and berry-pickers. The aim...
...interaction between myself and this iPad which does not require me to touch the display”, says Petter Risholm at SINTEF ICT. The basic technology has been around for several years, and he is now working with his colleague Jens Thielemann to extend the function to enable them to select and move objects on the...
Trustworthy and Sustainable AI is established to address the growing concerns around Artificial Intelligence (AI) regarding societal impact, safety, security, ethics, environmental sustainability, and regulation. With increasing energy consumption of AI models and the need for transparent, secure, and privacy-preserving...
By replacing natural gas with hydrogen and safer and smarter production methods, an EU-funded project will decarbonise the glass and aluminum industry. In the EU, the glass and aluminum industries annually emit approximately 21.5 million tonnes of CO2 equivalents. <!-- [if !supportAnnotations]--><!--[endif]--> The...
Internet of Things and cyber-physical systems in which objects and machines interact with each other and the physical world, either in close collaboration with, or entirely without the intervention of, humans. Many products will contain sensors that report on their condition and level of use, and provide information...
We offer both standardized and tailored mechanical testing solutions for a wide range of polymer and composite materials, components and industrial applications. General information Material innovation is key to enabling the products and technologies that will build a better society. Advanced mechanical...
EasyComposer and the associated Android platform EasyDroid support end-users to adapt personal telco services to different situations. They were taken in use and tested in everyday life by ten non-IT professionals. All participants to the evaluation are positive to the concept of composition and provide relevant...

...hierarchical balancing and interaction DSO/TSO. Hierarchical balancing emerges as an enabler for implicitly representing DSO grid constraints in "grid-secure" bids, which is referred to as a residual supply function (RSF). These bids are submitted to the TSO balancing market, and account for the DSO's...
SP2 will pave the way for new, innovative and safe systems for transport of H2. New technologies for maritime energy systems and ship designs are required to enable large-scale LH2 distribution. Based upon the technology development, market characteristics and underlying infrastructure, optimal logistics...
