In addition, the Haugaland Næringspark (HNP) is Norway´s largest zoned industrial park, with high ambitions for hosting new,...
...today made in large scale using fossil fuels and shipped as diluted solutions. A better way is on-site, modular production using renewable electricity. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a versatile chemical used in many industries as a bleaching agent, an oxidizer and a disinfectant. H2O2 is today made in large...
...hearing loss. In the project, a new hearing test is being tested that utilizes smartphones/tablets and can be conducted at the convenience of the employee. The test is developed in collaboration between SINTEF and Equinor, with a significant emphasis on user involvement. By performing more frequent hearing...
...farming facilities, the petroleum industry, etc. will cause increased and more complex electrical loads on the grid. Several of the electrical loads influence voltage quality parameters, such as over harmonic voltages, voltage surges and flicker, which can be more limiting than the required power output...
...social and environmental interests can provide good and predictable processes related to formal processing of grid development projects. The European Union has set ambitious goals for renewable energy. An increase in renewable energy production will help reducing greenhouse gas emissions and strengthen...
Nordic Energy Outlook har som mål å: “Strengthen Nordic research competence and cooperation in the field of energy systems analysis, by building on existing national research programs” [Nordic Energy Research] Dette samarbeidet ønsker å analysere resultater fra eksisterende nasjonal energiforskning...

An ecosystem for recording and playback of 360 3D (3D60) video and sound was developed in this project. The primary playback platform is...
...work? Follow-up, dialogue, reporting, controls and sanctions. In this report we examine the follow-up routines for sick-listed employees. Important elements in the current follow-up regime are follow-up plans, dialogue meetings, activity demands, controls, and sanctions. Evaluating the effect of a system...
...deals with both a new traceable and steerable flexible tool (catheter) and software to improve the planning and guidance of bronchoscopic procedures. The goal is increased accuracy and success rates when taking tissue samples, fewer examinations, earlier diagnosis, and earlier correct treatment for patients...
...strategic project, SINTEF develops new and innovative sensor technology for 3D imaging based on structured light. Structured light is a reliable, robust and highly accurate method for 3D range imaging. One or more light patterns are projected onto the scene and an off-axis camera captures images of the...
