...or new features. This release stabilizes the source code and makes the foundation for new discretizations, solvers, and example simulators. Significant changes in the MRST 2010a release: unified state objects (solution objects for reservoir and wells have been merged) new way of representing fluids extensive...
The first version of CRIOP was published in 1990. The scope was a scenario and general checklist-method for "Evaluation of the Offshore Control Centre". The focus of the methodology was on the human aspects in terms of conditions for successful crisis handling. The initial methodology was a result of...

Physical Phenomena. Uncertainty Quantification for Physical Phenomena Many complex physical problems can be simulated using numerical discretizations and mathematical models of the underlying physical process. For many systems, such simulations are able to accurately capture future development based on...
... Google, Intel and Honeywell are in the hunt, and the world is preparing itself for what is widely regarded as the next great technological revolution. “There is currently almost no research activity in this field in Norway”, says researcher Franz Fuchs, who works with mathematics and cybernetics at...
Norway’s hydropower and natural gas resources could help level out variable energy production in the European power market. Illustration photo: Colourbox Standard The variable nature of power production in the European market offers potential for Norway to help out. “Our analysis shows that Norway...
...extreme conditions they can be used in harsh chemical processes. Petroleum reservoirs that lie 2-3 kilometres beneath the seabed hold more than just oil and gas. These deep reservoirs are also home to micro-organisms that have lived in isolation for millions of years, ever since the process of converting...
Norway. Photo: Carl Attard (Pexels) Standard “The price of solar-generated electricity continues to plummet, and the technology is taking over as the least expensive form of energy in more and more parts of the world”, says solar cell researcher John Atle Bones at SINTEF. “We’re at an economic tipping...

This strong consortium, with established project management and research credentials, is managed by the Project Coordinator at Trinity College Dublin...
On the moon there is no liquid water, no wind, fairly strong radiation, and huge temperature differences between day and night. And as we know: modest gravity. Nevertheless, scientists believe it is possible to build greenhouses on the moon. Photo taken by Apollo 16 / NASA Standard No humans have been...

...important than the price? Norway’s continuity of supply is measured at over 99.98%. This is an impressive figure, considering the power system’s scope and complexity. However, even though this is a good result, losing power for even a few minutes can have dire consequences. For example, institutions that...
Both the glass and aluminium industries cast glass in furnaces that generate large volumes of greenhouse gases.

According to the textbooks, both high doses of chlorine and hot water are lethal to legionella bacteria. But now Norwegian scientists are sounding the alarm that the bacteria can survive these treatments, by hiding in amoebae. by Svein Tønseth Legionella bacteria can cause deadly pneumonia via our shower...
Live start-feed, cultivated in Trondheim, has enabled large numbers of lobster and tuna fry to survive in tanks. Now, SINTEF is setting up a production plant that will supply the world market with the feed. With the establishment of the Norwegian company C-Feed, small copepods are destined to become...
