Optimising the Norwegian Natural Gas Production and Transport GassOpt is an optimisation based decision support tool the Norwegian natural gas export network. It has been developed by SINTEF since 1998 and has contributed to substantial value creation in both Statoil and Gassco. The network for transportation...
However, the agricultural productivity per hectare is relatively low and the potential is underused. Greenhouse farming used to be quite common in Romania, but since the fall of the communist regime most greenhouses have become outdated and very inefficient. ClimaGreen is a collaborative, multidisciplinary...
...with Future Power Tariffs and Price-Sensitive Electricity Customers The project will realize consumer response through an improved introduction of grid tariffs for various customers in the distribution network and thus lead to better utilization of existing network capacity and a reduced need for investments...
...difficult and expensive to obtain. Self-supervised learning has emerged as a solution for this problem, as it leverages unlabeled data to learn useful representations. In this paper, we propose a self-supervised method for point cloud representation learning that enforces a point-based and instance-based...
PCM-STORE PCM-STORE gathers dairies, fish industries, food processing plants, supermarkets, technology suppliers and power grid operators to work towards a common goal: Solving energy storage challenges in support of a more energy-efficient industrial future. More renewable energy means a more variable...
...high cost and limited capacity of the battery itself. However, battery technology is rapidly improving and EVs with remarkable range are starting to appear at affordable price. Unfortunately, high capacity batteries need powerful chargers to be replenished in short time, already imposing new and emerging...
...short notice a fact report to draft their hydrogen strategy, and that had to be ready by the end of September 2016. They contacted SINTEF, who prepared the report within 15 days from contract signature. The report describes the status and expected development of several hydrogen-related technologies...
...release nanocontainers will be developed and incorporated in commercial paints, lacquers and adhesive systems to prepare new products exhibiting self-healing properties. A multi-level self-healing approach combines - in a same system - several damage prevention and reparation mechanisms, which will be activated...
...of novel energy systems in the drying and pre-heating of furnace feed materials, is a H2020 project aimed at demonstrating an innovative suite of technologies, involving utilization of industrial off-gases and solar thermal energy to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions from manganese production...
The project NanoHX is about investigating ways of making circulating fluid cooling more efficient and reliable by using magnetic nanofluids. Cooling is a crucial aspect of electronics design, all the way from high-power industrial applications to personal computers. Cooling means, simply put, to move...
...patients in mental health care. The registries have included all patients in 24-hour institutions and under private care at the time of registry. From 1989 onwards patients under treatment at out-patient clinics and with psychologists/-psychiatrists in private practice were also included in the registries....
