The largest potential for decreasing green house gas emissions, and therewith mitigating the effects of global climate change, comes from improving energy efficiency. Through the integration of heating and cooling systems into building elements, such as the thermo-active ceiling, improvements in energy...

...environmental risk analysis and oil spill contingency. The laboratory study was performed at 13 °C). The obtained weathering data for Rolvsnes were used in SINTEF Oil Weathering Model (OWM) for preliminary predictions for comparison with the previous predictions of Edvard Grieg and Solveig. Overall, the...

This State-of-the-art report has been compiled through extensive search of relevant literature and through information and experience provided by international experts. The report deals with the production and use of manufactured sand, which is defined as aggregate material less than 4 mm, processed from...

...road work warnings and recommended speed to optimize intersection crossing times. Participants completed two t rips along a designated route, one without the app functionalities and one with the functionalities being active. During trips, vehicle data such as speed, energy influx and efflux within the...

...demanding in execution and therefore seldom used in field. Furthermore, questions have been raised about how well they represent the stability problems in situ. The aim of the present investigation was therefore to find a method to assess stability of SCC which is practical, reliable and representative for...

SINTEF and NTNU organized a WORKSHOP on moisture in concrete, 6th-7th February 2012 in Trondheim. The workshop was related to and supported by the COIN Focus Areas 3.1 “Crack free concrete structures” and 3.2 “Service life”. The purpose of the workshop was to share information on • available methods...

...as an energy-efficient and climate-friendly concept for the centralised kitchen at Bengaluru. The CO₂ heat pump does not only replace the HCFC units for space cooling, but also supplies hot water to the cooking process, reducing the steam boiler's fuel consumption. A cold and hot water storage is included...

...density concrete. Requirements for energy absorption and/or a controlled behaviour after peak load may exclude LWAC as the preferred material. In overload situations adequate ductility is essential to ensure safety. Floating offshore structures and LNG-terminals are often post-tensioned, e.g. to avoid...

...interact through the use of services. Their often complex service dependencies and very dynamic nature make them hard to analyze and predict with respect to quality attributes. In this report we put forward a method for the capture and monitoring of impact of service dependencies on the quality of provided...

...this report we present our method ValidKI for designing indicators to monitor the fulfillment of business objectives with particular focus on quality and ICT-supported monitoring of indicators. A set of indicators is valid with respect to a business objective if it measures the degree to which the business...

Notat beskriver kort begrunnelsen for anbefalingen om ikke å utvikle en aggregert indikator....

...including definitions, criteria and main principles, and also methods to achieve low thermal bridge values and sufficient air tightness. In this context, the term thermal bridge free design and calculation methods are discussed. Chapter 0 and 4 give a survey of existing guidelines and recent research results...

...this report is to synthesize and build knowledge on the current uses of plastic, and the economic role of this ubiquitous material. Knowledge on the current uses of plastic and its necessity can contribute to a better understanding of possible alternative materials, and opportunities for increased circularity...
