...objective is to develop models and other tools that can be used to help understand, predict and prevent a broad class of flow assurance problems. Our overall goal is to develop generic methods to describe complex fluid systems in tools that can be incorporated into scaleable and robust multiphase flow assurance...
...been recycled and 12 percent burnt in incinerators. The remaining 79 percent has been dumped, and much of it has ended up in the oceans. Most of the plastic that reaches the oceans is non-recyclable and, according to recent studies, even if we continue to develop effective waste collection and recycling...
SINTEF’s prize for outstanding research in 2016 has been jointly awarded to ultrasound researcher Tormod Selbekk at SINTEF and neurosurgeon Geirmund Unsgård at St. Olav's Hospital/NTNU. The pair have been awarded the prize for research results that will most likely enable more tumour tissue to be removed...

China or in Eastern Europe for filleting and packaging. Meanwhile whitefish processing facilities in Norway are becoming fewer and fewer. In the last 40 years, the number of such plants has been reduced from 100 to just 10. Researchers at SINTEF Fisheries and Aquaculture aim to reverse this trend. Their...
...plastic, what in it is harmful and how does this affect living organisms? Tonnes of waste from standard plastic products have been uncontrollably released into the world’s oceans, where they gradually break down. But how harmful is this plastic to living organisms, and what is it in these plastics that...

...stresses on the constraint level and crack driving force, a new three parameter (CTOD, Q, R) approach has been proposed to characterise the crack tip stress field in the presence of residual stresses when the crack angle is zero. While the well-established parameters CTOD and Q sets the size scale over which...
