This project will compile scientific evidence (based on published articles, reports and case studies) on how the consumption-based effects on land use and biodiversity can be analysed and reported....
This research project is a study of the nature of abuse, violence and neglect against women with disabilities in Malawi. The childhood as well as the present situation of 23 women with disabilities in Blantyre district is described. Data was collected in two ways: a) Through in-depth individual interviews...
...their land-based counterparts. Among other issues, this cost discrepancy is in large part due to the increased turbine size, complexity, installation and connection to shore over long distances. It is then clear that costs have to be reduced significantly to facilitate offshore wind development. Hence...
...established by the META project and addresses the implementation of the GS1-defined Transport Status transaction which is implemented by means of two messages: Transport Status Request and Transport Status Notification. These messages support status reporting on transport instructions and associated transport operation...
...best general process metamodel. Two candidate standards are SPEM (of OMG) and SMSDM (of ISO/IEC). This paper studies each of these metamodels with respect to model-driven development (MDD), evaluating their domain appropriateness and comprehensibility appropriateness. The conclusion is that both metamodels...
...socioeconomic and environmental impacts of policies and instruments and, thus, support public and private decision makers. This report discusses aspects of scenario definition and indicator set development in the context of such modeling. A first case study is concerned with green transition and regional...
Dual Air blow-dryer that automatically provides feedback on its use. We successfully demonstrated feasibility by automatically identifying the right and wrong use of Dual Air by using machine learning on data from IMU sensors mounted on the blow-dryer. Video pose estimation from the study also documented...
TOR II. Limited laboratory studies were conducted for Ekofisk J and Eldfisk S to compare the weathering properties with previous tested Ekofisk oils with focus on the Ekofisk Blend 2000 (model oil) for environmental risk assessment and oil spill contingency for the Ekofisk area. A dispersibility study...
...room in Oslo climate. The office envelope and system properties are in compliance with the TEK (2007). The study concentrates on the thermal comfort conditions in summer and two cooling systems are considered, one representing an idealised room cooling system and one representing a typical ventilation cooling...
...report describes the work carried out with the main goal to map and identify the occurrence of phantom braking, to identify under which special conditions these episodes happen more often, and to reveal the level of trust, attitudes, and interest towards Advanced Driver Assistance Systems among Norwegian...
Administration) and NTNU. In this project, methods and systems to measure the environmental impact of individual vehicles in traffic has been investigated. The main objective has been to monitor the noise levels of passing vehicles in a traffic stream. In order to monitor the speed and to categorize...
...organic products were investigated using novel DSC technique and methods of determination. The report includes determination of freezing temperatures, glass transition temperatures, amount of ice, and end of freezing point, heat capacity and thermal conductivity for selected cases. One part of the experimental...
...overall project objectives is to study the need and requirements for electronic communication (ecom) in the future transport system in Norway and develop a planning tool for ecom for the transport sector. lntroductory studies were performed in work package 1 and documented in this report. In particular we...
...environmental and socioeconomic areas from decisions surrounding sustainability and business competitiveness. By way of two case studies, this report identifies challenges and presents methods for scenario implementation and indicator development. Data availability is a challenge for IOA, and must be considered...
...sea. Critical minerals are those that have a significant economic importance and that have risks to their supply. Many low-carbon technologies currently depend on these critical minerals. The total demand for minerals and whether critical minerals will become a challenge for the green transition depending...
