...the rising demand and the proliferation of pellet producers seeking raw materials. Additionally, this shift stems from the decline in wood processing and exploitation activities over recent years, primarily due to reduced access to forest resources, legislative instability, and bureaucratic hurdles...

...building at Brattøra in Trondheim the idea to reach a zero emission building level is to use PVs as a roofing material covering the entire roof. Challenges and questions raised in the design process of this building have motivated the work reported here. Photovoltaic (PV) panels directly convert solar radiation...

Reduction of energy use and GHG emissions in the building sector is a high priority. The EU 2050 roadmap that was established in 2010, states that to achieve a global warming of less than 2°C in this century, Europe should reduce its GHG emissions by 80 % by 2050, using 1990 emissions as the reference...

...aerodynamic model is based on momentum balance,and includes time-lag models for dynamic inflow, circulation lag, and dynamic stall. The structural model is a multibody formulation with modal reduction applied to the foundation/tower, nacelle, driveshaft and each of three blades. At present the model is...

In this report we summarize the results from our work on requirements and design of social software for co-creation in Living Labs, conducted within the SociaLL project.Social design feedback is proposed as an approach to utilize social software for such co-creation. We discuss tools for social design...

...aquaculture more circular. The concepts are based on industry initiatives, circular business models and management principles. Furthermore, the report describes the theory behind circular economy and relevant concepts, as well as the background for plastics in aquaculture, including regulatory context...

...specification of user interfaces supporting emergency responders. First, we outline the special challenges faced when developing such user interfaces, and the approach used in the FLUIDE Framework to meet these challenges. Then we introduce the framework, including its two specification languages. Thereafter...

Living Labs is a relatively new approach to involving users in the innovation and development processes and has received great interest lately. In the NordForsk research project SociaLL we aim to use social software for co-creation in Living Labs. This document is our initial framework to support the...

...2013-01-29, 1st amendment dated 2013-12-20 and 2nd amendment dated 2014-12-19. Downgrade ordered from Vår Energi AS (former Eni Norge AS) by Ulf Klevstad on email dated 30-09-2020. The report is downgraded by SINTEF Digital, dept. of Health Research. Original report and amendments are attached....

...seedlings of macroalgae is analysed with regard to challenges and bottlenecks associated with industrial scale production. Based on issues identified for each sub-process, an action plan with rough estimates of time/cost requirements and proposed prioritization is given as a roadmap to achieve industrial...

...scientific and industrial partners. This report briefly describes the activities carried out in the MultiSEPT project in 2013. Full scale tests of the semi circular spreading gear (SCSG) showed that this ground gear was easy to rig and operate, its geometry was stable during towing and it had good...

...blow out of oil and the effectiveness of subsea dispersant injection (SSDI). The droplet sizes documented by the SINTEF Silhouette Camera from comparable experiments (nozzle, oil type, flow rates, injection techniques and dispersant product) at ambient conditions (5 meters depth) and high pressure...

Demersal Seining is an active fishing method which is based on seine ropes and a seine net. The seine ropes and net are laid out on the fishing ground in a way that they encircle an aggregation of fish. Because the area the seine ropes encircle is much larger than area swept by the seine net during the...

...solution of the two-dimensional boundary-layer equations. The method has been validated against empirical formulas for flat plates, and full-scale measurements at the Horns Rev and Nysted wind farms. ...

...study has been performed on two Buzzard crude oils from the main field and the northern terrace manifold (NTM), respectively. The laboratory data of the crude oils are input to the SINTEF Oil database for further OSCAR (oil drift and response model) simulations. In addition, predictions of oil weathering...

NORTIM, the program for calculation of aircraft noise propagation, has four main components: A calculation kernel, a project database, a master database, and a user interface. The latter is a tool where the user may combine operational input (from external sources) with data from the master database to make...

...carried out for the Norwegian farmed salmon supply chains with some differences in the data used and the method chosen. Hence results presented in this report must be compared keeping in mind the differences and changes in the GHG emissions cannot be interpreted as a direct result of aquaculture industry's...
