...aim is to present user experiences with passive houses and zero‐energy buildings. The focus is on the interaction between the building and the users, specifically on how user interfaces, knowledge, and commitment influence the use of the building and the level of energy consumption awareness. Design/methodology/approach...

Kvinesdal, producing a 19%Si silicomanganese alloy prior shutdown, the sidewall materials contained silicon carbide in addition to SiMn alloy, slag and carbon. This contrasts with the large amounts of titanium carbides found in a furnace from Ferroglobe (Glencore then) which was producing 16%Si silicomanganese...

This document provides the theory manual and user manual for two finite elements for the modeling of hydrogen-induced embrittlement of metallic materials. The cohesive zone element (CZE) allows to simulate the creation of new surfaces and the corresponding absorption of energy. The absorption of energy...

In the era of Big Data and AI, it is challenging to know all technical and business advantages of the emerging technologies. The goal of DataBench is to design a benchmarking process helping organizations developing Big Data Technologies (BDT) to reach for excellence and constantly improve their performance...

Increasing critical infrastructure (CI) resilience is a European strategy to enhance safety and security. A digital radio standard for the rail have been developed by The International Union of Railways (UIC) - The Global System for Mo-bile Communication in Railways (GSM-R). In Norway, GSM-R was implemented...

Acidizing and wormholing in carbonate reservoirs is studied through the analysis of the linear acidizing problem theoretically and experimentally. Experimentally, linear acidizing tests were performed in Mons chalk, a high porosity analogue of North Sea reservoir chalk. In the experiments the critical...

...threatens the well being of both humans and the environment. Wave power desalination is a method of producing freshwater that has been in the developing stages since 1970. One of the concepts is Ocean Oasis which was studied during the DNV GL summer project, and it is also the subject of this thesis....
