...lifting the trawl doors and sweeps from the seabed can reduce bycatch in shrimp trawl fisheries. We carried out a catch comparison and catch ratio analysis between two gear setups, one with the trawl doors and sweeps at the seabed (the traditional way) and the other with the doors and sweeps lifted. The study...

REBUS project vision and objectives: The research project REBUS – REuse of Building materials – a USer perspective started in 2020 with a vision of developing a knowledge platform to enable the wider and more efficient implementation of reusable building materials. REBUS aimed to address the main barriers...

...neighbourhoods. They are the ones designing and creating the neighbourhood, transforming and building it and finally using it when living and working there. People play different roles in that process – such as project owners, architects, construction workers, neighbours, and users. We summarize them under the...

...summarizes ZEN research on urban design and accessibility. With greenhouse gas emissions as the issue and urban neighbourhoods as the scale, the goal has been to develop analytical methods and evaluation tools for use by municipalities and other actors in planning at city and neighbourhood scale. This has provided...

...climate adaptation of buildings and infrastructure in order to reduce societal risk related to enhanced precipitation and flood water. Klima 2050 has proved to be synonymous with excellence within risk reduction through climate adaptation of buildings and infrastructure and it has been an effective instrument...

...properties and the increased food processability. In the European countries, 75-80% of salt we consume is hidden in processed foods. The Low salt products project had comprehensive participation from Norwegian fish and meat industry and RTD-institutes and was coordinated by SINTEF Fisheries and Aquaculture...

A few initial ideas for new active fishing gear concepts based on trawl and seine were presented at a workshop in Hirtshals, 14-15 December 2009. These initial concepts are described and the comments and feedback from the workshop participants included in this report. The outcome of the workshop is...

This memo explores the potential and feasibility of different heat‐to‐power technologies for application in industrial surplus heat recovery. Several technologies are described and evaluated qualitatively for typical low‐to‐medium temperature heat sources in HighEFF partner industries. The evaluations...

Research Program "Formation and behaviour of thin oil films and evaluation of response methods including HSE" (TOF project) has been a 3-year Research & Development project (2014-2017). This report summarize the main research conducted and the results, and refers to reports, memos, and publications/manuscripts...

Snake robots have a strong inherent potential to move and operate robustly in challenging environments where more conventional wheeled and tracked mobile robots may fail. Such abilities are important for planetary exploration. In this report, we have investigated the feasibility of snake robots for planetary...

...extensive 3D-mesh of O₂-probes was deployed in a cage and allows an overview of the O₂-content in the whole cage volume. This O₂ distribution is statistically analyzed and its gradients discussed in time and location. In addition, current meters and a current profiler allow to discuss the oxygen data in...

...the rates of reactions between cement and water to give an overall increase in the hydration rate. Thus, the use of accelerators in concrete provides a shortening of setting time and/or an increase in early strength development. This report gives a historical and technical overview of liquid accelerators...

...the form and simultaneously stable against segregation of aggregates and bleeding. Stability of SCC can be achieved in at least two ways: By aid of fines and/or filler, and by aid of chemical stabilizer. The main objective of this study is to investigate the influence the effect fillers and chemical...

Foreword. This report is a Summary Guideline for development of coastal infrastructure in cold climate and is prepared within the SFI Sustainable Arctic Marine and Coastal Technology (SAMCoT). The Summary Guideline follows the structure of a more comprehensive Technical Guideline established within the...

...newspaper supply chain, and focus on the “last mile” distribution that has been advocated as an application of arc routing in the literature. A literature survey is provided, followed by a discussion of the arc routing model and its adequacy to newspaper applications. A more general and normally more adequate...

...of Oslo is that building and construction activities in Oslo shall be zero emission by 2030. From 2025, building and construction work carried out on assignment for the City of Oslo shall be zero emission. This impact assessment is based on quantitative analysis of energy and power requirements, cost...

...from industry, research, government and funding institutions both from Brazil and Norway. The Minister of Fisheries and Aquaculture in Brazil (Helder Barbalho) did open the seminar. The seminar covered presentations of the status and potential of Brazilian Aquaculture and presentation of the Norwegian aquaculture...

...for Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) selection and where to locate these solutions has been developed. The method will help decision makers and city planners to make sound decisions based upon knowledge of where the water will accumulate and where to find the most optimal location for installing...

It is believed that well-performing building envelopes with low thermal losses and low solar heat gains enable simplified building services solutions. The purpose of this report is to summarize the status of promising building services solutions suitable for a low emission building stock in urban areas...

...of WP1 in the Revalue project and it presents the findings from research on energy-efficient and environment-friendly refrigeration system for Surimi processing and storage in warm ambient temperatures. During 2017-18, India exported about $17.6 million worth of surimi and it has good potential for further...
