Prosjektet «Morgendagens skoler – et samspill mellom arkitektur, pedagogikk og læring» har ved hjelp av casestudier utviklet empirisk kunnskap om hvordan skolers fysiske miljøer brukes og oppleves av forskjellige brukere, og hvordan brukeropplevelsene samsvarer med opplæringas mål og forutsetninger...

PhDs, Postdocs, and researchers are collaborating across work package boundaries, and the num¬ber of activities associated with the pilot areas is increasing. Public and industry partners are seeing more opportunities to connect their ongoing activities to the ZEN Centre. Communication and innovation strategies...

The electricity grid is designed to handle peaks in electricity consumption and is usually dimensioned to handle peak loads at the coldest hours of the year. Over the years to come, investment plans in the Norwegian electricity grids amount to up to 135 billion NOK [1]. A substantial share of the grid...

Preface. During the summer of 2021 we were once again witness to dramatic climate-related events, this time linked to heavy rains and flooding in continental Europe. All this happened at about the same time as the IPCC published its 6th report, re-emphasising in the strongest possible terms the seriousness...

The growth of new technologies and ways of using them has led to rapid changes in the public-sector information and services situation. Today, 17 percent of Internet users regularly download public-sector information from user-generated fora on the Internet. This report has studied these changes with...

...the façade of a new building. The component is originally designed for new buildings, but the research and experiments carried out in Retrokit2 focus on developing solutions for retrofitting. Air- and rain tightness tests have been carried out at SINTEF Byggforsk`s Laboratory facilities in Høgskoleringen...

...stages of construction and to highlight areas with potential for improvement. The report focuses therefore on planning as well as production processes. Planning has been rated as the most influencing factor for achieving construction productivity improvement. Site managers and designers must ensure good...

SMARTFISH H2020 is to develop, test and promote a suite of high-tech systems for the EU fishing sector, thereby optimising resource efficiency, improving automatic data collection for fish stock assessment, provide evidence of compliance with fishery regulations and reduce the ecological impact of the...

...heat pumps, and temperatures from 100-200℃ are especially needed in the paper and the food and tobacco industries. Drying, distillation, cooking, boiling and sterilization are the main processes in this temperature range. Steam regeneration through MVR processes see high potential COP, and several research...

...upon version 1.0 and 2.0 of the ZEN definition guideline reports and series of ZEN definition reports. This report gives further details on the ZEN KPI tool and on ZEN KPI reference, limit, and target values. A major change involves lifting the process KPIs out of spatial qualities and incorporating them...

...for zero emission neighbourhoods in smart cities (FME ZEN) between 2017 and 2024. The tool empowers users to track, report, and visualize the performance of a zero emission neighbourhood throughout both the strategic planning and the implementation phases. It encompasses various KPIs across six categories:...

Europakommisjonens ambisjon om å bli verdens første klimanøytrale kontinent innen 2050 er avhengig av digitale teknologier og løsninger som kunstig intelligens (KI), 5G, tingenes internett (IoT), skytjenester og "edge computing" for effektiv utnyttelse av energi og ressurser. Men hvor smarte er...

...universities, and research institutions to investigate various aspects of energy flexibility. To achieve its objectives, the project employed a combination of models and explored four different energy transition scenarios, or storylines, named as Energy Nation, Petroleum Nation, Nature Nation, and Climate...

...based on the previous work from CySiMS “D1.1 Risk Model and Analysis” and the methodology from CySiMS-SE “D2.1 Expanded risk and CBA methodology”. The goal has been to show how we obtain required means and opportunities of attack vectors for the PKI and motivation factors for potential threat actors....

...attributes and their trade-offs. This paper argues for the feasibility of the PREDIQT method based on a comprehensive industrial case study targeting a system for managing validation of electronic certificates and signatures worldwide. We first give an overview of the PREDIQT method, and then present...

...workshop was to discuss opportunities and challenges in the development of new hydropower capacities in Norway, for balancing non-regulated renewable power production in Northern Europe. The workshop provided a meeting and discussion arena for important actors that are and will be involved in the future decision...

...biomass in the energy sector, to do a detailed analysis of black pellets technology, to do a comparative analysis of black pellets technologies, and to estimate CO₂ emissions reduction potential of the black pellet technology. Black pellets have properties similar to that of coal, thus is a promising...

...highly congested railroad networks, demand for passenger and freight transport is affected not only by the available capacity but also by the consequences of the achieved punctuality and regularity: Poor on-time performance increases travel costs and, hence, makes rail less competitive toward other modes...

This Handbook is revised and somewhat updated from the original issue of 1994. The Handbook gives recommendations about choices and correct use of overvoltage protection in lightning prone area, corrosion protection, and choices of open or tight ACC line configurations, and measures to protect the insulation...

Perspective (DHSP) and the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE). The goal was to derive an engineering-friendly assessment of thermal ice loads on dams based on an energy-conserving ice growth model and published relationships between ice temperature changes and compressive stress...
