The capture of CO2 is of high interest in our society representing an essential tool to mitigate man-made climate warming. Membrane technology applied for CO2 capture offers several advantages in terms of energy savings, simple operation, and easy scale-up. Glassy membranes are associated with low...
The maritime industry, encompassing sectors such as wind energy, oil rigs, fishing, global logistics, and cruise tourism, is one of the oldest and fastest-growing. However, it faces significant challenges in establishing communication infrastructure, which is crucial for continuous monitoring, safe...
The integration of Distributed Generation (DG) units, especially from renewable sources, is transforming low-voltage grids from passive to active systems. Accurate grid impedance information is vital for the reliable operation of grid-connected inverters, enabling stability analysis, fault detection...
Deep learning (DL) models have emerged as alternative methods to conventional ultrasound (US) signal processing, offering the potential to mimic signal processing chains, reduce inference time, and enable the portability of processing chains across hardware. This paper proposes a DL model that...
It has been observed that reporting the location of fixed fishing gear is an efficient way to prevent gear conflicts and inform the authorities about where the gear has been set in case of loss. In Norway, reporting has been a mandatory process for many years, but it was only after the process was...
Pitting corrosion, a localized form of corrosion leading to cavities and structural failure in metallic materials, requires early detection for effective mitigation. While ultrasonic inspection techniques can readily detect uniform wall thinning, they often struggle to identify pitting corrosion...
Diatoms (Bacillariophyceae) are considered to be the most diverse class of algae, including as many as 250 genera and having possibly as many as 200,000 species. Because of their complex evolutionary history, they are referred to as having a mix-and-match genome with contributions from various...
Understanding the mechanical behaviour of natural soils as mixed with cement for stabilization is crucial for civil engineering developments. The response of cement-soil admixtures when subjected to cyclic loads is a largely unexplored topic, despite the importance of understanding fatigue in these...
