The objective of WP1 is to develop new knowledge concerning how organisations and humans contribute to resilience of an existing technological system, and knowledge concerning how improvisation may contribute to resilient organisations. In order to meet this objective, we have to bridge three research...

...with the merger of Tokyo University of Mercantile Marine and Tokyo University of Fisheries. Both universities had played key roles in developing related sciences and industries for more than a hundred years. Their respective devotion to teaching and research has made TUMSAT a leading institution in higher...

A microgrid’s ability to transition to and from island mode is crucial. CINELDI and Skagerak Nett are piloting both planned and unplanned transitions at Skagerak Energilab. The lab is ideal for this sort of testing as it’s connected to Skagerak Nett’s grid, and can be run as a microgrid due to its 1...

On May 29th 2023, in the heart of Paris, at the premises of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), multilateral negotiations towards a new global treaty to end plastic pollution resumed after its first session in Uruguay in November 2022. The treaty negotiations...

...analysis of international and country-level health policy will identify health policy aspirations and challenges; along with opportunities for alignment and harmonisation, between different stakeholders. Policies to be examined include those from the EU, WHO, Word Bank and other UN and multilateral organizations...

...industrial and commercial buildings. The damage assessments end in a well-documented damage report, which among other things, describes the cause of the damage and suggestions for repair. Condition- and damage analyses also provide a basis for approval criteria for various product categories and instructions...

...properly. But we managed it at last, and the model tests went extremely well. It was exciting to test the system to its limits and to see how heavy winds and waves we could subject the model to. We have now performed tests that no-one else has ever carried out, and we are proud of that," says MARINTEK...

...pushes the boundaries of autonomous drones. Mobile and autonomous sensor systems constitute a priority area at SINTEF. We offer a large range of relevant technologies and competence within this field for mobile and autonomous systems in the air, on ground and under water. MAsens is a three year strategic...

...cages with a diameter of 157 meters, is time consuming and dangerous work. Now researchers from SINTEF is developing an underwater robot that can perform systematic and effective cleaning and inspection and also be able to repair damage to the nets and prevent escapes. Underwater robots, or ROVs (Remotely...

...outsourcing may influence upon organizations’ ability to prevent sickness absence and exclusion from working life. Outsourcing refers to a business strategy where organizations focus on their core competencies and activities and buy ancillary services from supplier companies. Increased use of outsourcing...

...behind-the-meter in households and on commercial buildings. However, the power grid was historically not designed to accommodate distributed energy production, which involves both technical and economic challenges. Local Energy Communities may be an important tool to solve these challenges and enable the efficient...

Medium-voltage gas-insulated switches are crucial for the safety and operation of power grids, but many current solutions, which use SF₆ gas and PFAS materials, pose significant environmental risks Presently, most switchgears are filled with sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆) as the insulation medium, which...

Establish the knowledge basis and methodologies necessary for developing a socio-economically favourable and robust coupled offshore and onshore grid. In May 2022 the Norwegian government announced an ambition to award areas for 30 GW offshore wind power by 2040. This implies the development of an offshore...

...operate and maintain an increasing base of critical infrastructure including electrical substations. SINTEF has developed methods for autonomous drones which could in the future contribute to asset management. Testing of novel prototype solution for autonomous drones With Statnett as a client and forward-leaning...

...hydrocarbon recovery based on a description of the reservoir, the fluid dynamics, well controls, and couplings to surface facilities. In model-building workflows it is often desirable to determine volumetric connections and the main flow paths at a stage in the process where all the data necessary to perform a...

...resources, and enhanced durability via multiple interactions with ions in seawater. The project enables new technology and novel adhesives for seawater adhesion in marine operations. By developing environmentally friendly adhesives from materials derived from plants that facilitate fast adhesion and long-lasting...

OSCAR er et ledende modell og et simuleringsverktøy for å forutse skjebne og effekter av et uhellsutslipp av olje i marint miljø, både fra platformer og fartøy. OSCAR gir...

... better and cheaper are challenges that IT companies face every day. The customer's expectations shall be met in a world where constant change in environment, organization and technology are the rule rather than the exception. A solution for meeting these challenges is to share knowledge and experience...

...the most common materials for such processes, and SINTEF is also establishing/developing new materials for AM. Furthermore, characterization and testing of materials and products made by AM has been a topic in many projects at SINTEF. SINTEF has expertise and practical experience with many of the commercial...
