Working with Norwegian companies The researchers are looking at Scandinavia as their main area of focus and are aiming to identify...
Here you find instance definitions and the best known upper and lower bounds (to our knowledge) for the 34 instances of the mgval (ß=0.35) benchmark derived from the CARP by Bosco et al. [BLMV]. The values for the upper and lower bounds reported in the table only include traversal costs, i.e. service...
To achieve electromagnetic compatibility, any product, including an electric vehicle, must satisfy requirements for both electromagnetic emissions and electromagnetic immunitye performance. Electromagnetic emissions compliance means the ability of a system to function satisfactorily in its electromagnetic...
...is at a temperature of more than 1000 degrees Celsius. This heat can be converted to electrical energy. It has long been known that by drilling down and recovering a small fraction of this geothermal energy, it is possible to meet the whole world’s energy needs, with absolutely no CO2 emissions. The plan...

...roots. The heat pump technology, based on natural CO₂ as a refrigerant, was originally developed at NTNU and SINTEF in Trondheim. The story begins with legendary professor Gustav Lorentzen at NTNU and SINTEF. In the 1980s, as the international community began phasing out ozone-depleting CFC gases following...
...called exosomes. They are present in all our bodily fluids and play a key role in the transfer of signals between our cells. It has been demonstrated that they are able to cross the brain-blood barrier, which offers great potential for the diagnosis and treatment of neurological diseases. Developing analytical...

...time-consuming and expensive process. It takes on average more than ten years to launch a new drug onto the market. Much of the reason for this is that new drugs still have to be tested on experimental animals, and about 90 per cent never reach the market. The transferability to humans of new and highly promising...
