...terrain and building-induced wind and turbulence forecasting in complex terrain SINTEF in cooperation with the Norwegian Meteorological Institute has developed a microscale turbulence alert system that is now operational for 20 airports and give a real-time prediction of turbulence intensity and wind conditions...
We can test and document all sub-materials for concrete, as well as concrete products and concrete of different origins. Together with our partners, we perform testing according to the most relevant standards (mainly EN standards). Typical assignments include Determine concrete quality, cause of damage...
...low levels of sulphur and nitrogen oxides. This would result in lower local air pollution. Photo: Thor Nielsen Branches, tops, lopwood and brushwood that are left in felled areas after the timber has been extracted are now set to become more than just an irritation to hikers and berry-pickers. The aim...
...interaction between myself and this iPad which does not require me to touch the display”, says Petter Risholm at SINTEF ICT. The basic technology has been around for several years, and he is now working with his colleague Jens Thielemann to extend the function to enable them to select and move objects on the...
Vi viser hvordan klimatilpasning, fornyelse og bruk av natur i sårbare nabolag kan hjelpe byer og regioner i overgangen mot nullutslipp. Fem europeiske byer er demo-byer i prosjektet:...

Department of Medical Technology at SINTEF Technology and Society is a partner in the EU project Regional Anaesthesia Simulator and Assistant (RASimAs), together with partners from 10 European countries. The aim of this ambitious project is to...
...conducted annual national ripple effect analyzes in the fisheries and aquaculture sector on behalf of various clients. By specific adaptation of data which brings out the respective value chains for fishing / hunting and aquaculture, and the use of a custom input-output model of the Norwegian economy...
...important cause of major disability and death in Malawi. The National TB control Program (NTP) was established in 1964 to reduce the incidence and prevalence of TB in the country. The Stop TB Strategy (DOTS) became the internationally recognized strategy in 1984 and currently has national (100%) coverage...
...food security, and cross-sectoral planning. Only 3.5 per cent of Norway’s land area is suitable for food production, and this land is under pressure from development, overgrowth, and competing commercial interests. At the same time, farmland protection is crucial for national security and sustainable development...

Our cooperation has covered both research and analyses aimed at preventing skin and ear infections in saturation divers...
...stoves is 2.5 g parti-cles per kg dry wood, and increased energy efficiency. The part load issue is also important, in addition to standardization of testing methods related to EU directives. SP3 covers as well the demonstration of increased efficiency and innovative solutions for district heat. Working...
We develop, modify and improve the materials, in addition to R&D on recycling. Circular economy and sustainability are key factors in our research. We cooperate with universities nationally and abroad. Our laboratories are well equipped. We offer research and development on polymer-based materials such...
Biological and biotechnological systems are often very complex, containing a large number (hundreds to thousands) of distinct chemical compounds. The use of mass spectrometry (MS) coupled to chromatographic separation (GC, LC, IC, FFF) allows for sensitive and robust quantification (ng/ml and below) of...
SINTEF develops inorganic membranes for use in separation, liquid handling and chemical reactors. The membrane properties are optimized by advanced modelling, and by controlling the material composition and geometric structure....
