...the workers comfortable, lighten their load and reduce pain during work. In addition, the footwear will have a reduced environmental footprint to lighten the load on the planet. Safety footwear must protect the wearer from a variety of workplace hazards and potential injuries. E.g. compression, puncture...
...lower cost coating materials for bipolar plates and sinters. In order to lower the costs, a reduction in use of expensive materials and the introduction of new low(er) cost materials are key elements. In addition, new materials should allow for fast and low-cost manufacturing processes, such as stamping...
CleanExport project will provide strategic guidance and investment support for exploiting Norway's potential for clean energy export. To this end, the project will develop a holistic, integrated energy-system model of electric power, hydrogen and natural gas with CCS, specifically designed for analysing...

The ProAktiv project is focusing on challenges related to grid planning and will contribute to reduced...
...solutions for future buildings and neighbourhoods with no greenhouse gas emissions and thereby contribute to a low carbon society. Our partners cover the entire value chain and include representatives from municipal and regional governments, property owners, developers, consultants and architects, ICT companies...
...develop SINTEF’s competence within biotechnology and drug discovery/development to also include immunotherapies. In immunotherapy the immune system is exploited to achieve a therapeutic effect. This has been developed extensively during the last decade and was highlighted by the Nobel Prize in medicine...
...further increases in the public sector, and that the proportion of men go into private sector. The report also concludes that there has been little cohesion between female- and male-heavy industries. SINTEF and NTNU have commissioned the Ministry of Children, Equality and Social Inclusion ascertain to what...
...developments, both technically and commercially, regarding materials, machines and production services. However, there are also R&D challenges, e.g. when it comes to predictable and repeatable material properties. The MKRAM project has addressed such challenges for selected metal alloys and plastics. Additive...
...building project which aims to create knowledge on the interactions between polymer materials (and multimaterial structures which include polymers) and H2, to aid proper selection of materials to minimize leakage and component failure. Logo The use of hydrogen as an energy carrier is one of the most promising...
...theoretical knowledge and develop practical methods for the accurate prediction of full-scale performance of the vessels equipped with innovative propulsion systems. The main target ships studied in the project were representative of the class of twin-screw offshore vessels and large single-screw cargo...
A new tool is being developed at SINTEF Fisheries and Aquaculture, which will help skippers to save large amounts of fuel each year. Today's vessels are complex and gives the skipper many choices related to how the vessel is operated. Typical choices are which engines are running, vessel speed, how...
Care) When demography and illness trumps policy: Why Norwegians continue to die in institutions The purpose of the project was to describe the use of health services, and associated costs in the last years of life, and to identify factors that affect consumption at individual and system levels. The conditions...
