...workshops and visited seafood industry in Albania, Montenegro, Kosovo and Bosnia & Herzegovina. In October 2014, the whole consortium visited Trondheim. The three-day workshop included excursions to the Norwegian Seafood industry and NTNU. The final results from all project partners were presented, and future...
Since Lean Production was popularized in the 1990s, many manufacturers have developed and deployed corporate lean programs across their global factory networks. However, research reports that up to 90% of lean programs fail to succeed. Drawing on practical insights gained from the deployment of one such...
...for supply and demand of nickel in batteries and non-battery applications up to 2050. Using a demand-driven supply-constrained dynamic material flow model, we analyse how the growing demand for nickel to batteries can be met in the future, the potential bottlenecks in the supply chain, and the consequences...
Microplastic (MP; 1-5000 µm) and nanoplastic (NP; <1 µm) particles observed in the natural environment are typically (i) irregular-shaped, (ii) partially degraded, (iii) a wide range of polymer types, (iv) a continuum of sizes, shapes and densities, and (v) a reservoir for complex mixtures of plastic-associated...
...ships are said to be an enabler for modal shift in Europe, they require a broader transformation of the transport and business ecosystems to be effective. That is, current logistics paradigms and rapid advancements in zero-emission road transport may inadvertently incentivise a shift away from waterborne...
...deformation in concrete. The intention was to find a relation between autogenous deformation and relative humidity in three different mixes with three different binders. Another objective was to compare and verify the measurements of the new test rigs with corresponding samples tested according to SINTEF’s...
