The main objective is to develop guidelines and a supporting framework to help businesses find a balanced approach within the three-dimensional space of invested effort, security testing, and risk analysis. This report documents the conceptual...
...restrictions on the Courant number. The algorithm is described and analysed formally for properties like consistency, stability and accuracy. In addition the method is demonstrated on some test cases, including two- and three-dimensional cases, neutral and stratified flows. Oppdragsgiver Avinor AS ...
New ideas are needed as to how we can develop and provide housing for the disabled. This report examines the practices of six Norwegian municipalities, which in a variety of ways are looking to enable disabled residents to build or buy and own their own homes. The survey has confirmed some previous findings:...
The IEA HPT Annex 49 "Design and integration of heat pumps for Nearly Zero Energy Buildings" deals with the design and integration of heat pumps as core component of the HVAC system for Nearly or Net Zero energy buildings (NZEB). The IEA HPT Annex 49 has been structured into four tasks which comprise...
The viscosities and melting points of SiO2-rich oxide melts depend on their composition. This work presents viscosities, calculated in FactSage, for various binary oxide melts consisting of SiO2 and various levels of a secondary oxide from: [Fe2O3, Al2O3, CaO, K2O]. Also included are the calculated...
...report summarizes the main results and contributions from the “Market Based Demand Response” project (2005-2008).The project has been organized in three work packages with the following focuses: WP 1: Measures to increase the demand side price elasticity, WP 2: Technology and quality improvements in the “meter...
Trains movement on a railway network are regulated by the official timetables. Deviations and delays occur quite often in practice, asking for fast rescheduling and rerouting decisions in order to avoid conflicts and minimize overall delay. This is the real-time train dispatching problem. In contrast with...
