Mixed-methods approach to studying multiuser perceptions of an interim Complete Streets project in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Research on multiuser perceptions of street environment alterations has been gathering attention in recent years given an increased focus on both sustainable city development and public participation. This study investigated ... -
Climate and Environmental Monitoring using GNSS Remote Sensing
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:209, Doctoral thesis, 2024)The potential of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals for remote sensing applications has been widely recognized. The widespread availability of GNSS signals, whether in direct form or as reflections, enables ... -
Experimental and numerical investigations of the water surface profile and wave extrema of supercritical flows in a narrow channel bend
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Supercritical flows in channel bends, e.g., in steep streams, chute spillways, and flood and sediment bypass tunnels (SBTs), experience cross-waves, which undulate the free surface. The designs of these hydraulic structures ... -
Do nothing, do minimum or do something? Why public project appraisals “always” recommend large projects
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Purpose: In the project initiation phase, an appraisal is needed to clarify the strategic problem and alternative solutions. Full-scale construction projects and simple solutions (do-minimum alternatives) should be assessed. ... -
Implementing Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems: Themes of Cultural Conflicts and Public Resistance - A Case Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)A six-year study investigates the challenges of balancing stakeholders’ interests when implementing climate adaptation regulations and makes a case for analytical tools that can improve the acceptance and adoption of local ... -
Experimental investigation of simultaneous nitrification-denitrification and phosphorus removal in pilot-scale sequencing batch moving bed biofilm reactors (SB-MBBRs)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Sequencing batch moving bed biofilm reactors have been widely used in commercial wastewater treatment facilities for organic carbon and nitrogen removal. However, these reactors can remove low phosphorus (P) levels. ... -
Korrupsjon på norsk
(Master thesis, 2024)Korrupsjon er et stort problem på verdensbasis og bygg- og anleggsbransjen er ofte vinner av den lite gjeve prisen "mest korrupt". Problemet er magert beskrevet, spesielt i norsk kontekst. I et byggeprosessperspektiv ... -
Challenges of integrated multi-infrastructure asset management: a review of pavement, sewer, and water distribution networks
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The prosperity of urban life is dependent on its infrastructure. Urban underground infrastructure components (assets) are aging and need regular monitoring, maintenance and rehabilitation. These assets are often placed ... -
On the use of multi-objective optimization for multi-site calibration of extensive green roofs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Conceptual hydrological models are practical tools for estimating the performance of green roofs. Such models require calibration to obtain parameter values, which limits their use when measured data are not available. One ... -
Using games and simulation to enchance learning
(Journal article, 2024)In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the emphasis on student-centred active learning in higher education. One effective way to enhance student engagement is through the use of serious games. Unlike ... -
Bruk av dagstakt i Gjøa boligprosjekt - En casestudie
(Master thesis, 2024)Denne oppgaven ser på taktplanlegging i et boligprosjekt. Taktplanlegging er en metode for planlegging og gjennomføring av prosjekter hvor i hovedsak formålet er å øke produktivitet og håndtere variasjon. Den vanligste ... -
A Study of Soil Contamination by Residues of Single-use Face Masks
(Master thesis, 2023)Med plastavfall som utgjør en betydelig trussel mot terrestriske og akvatiske økosystemer, har den økte bruken av engangs munnbind under COVID-19-pandemien skapt miljøutfordringer på grunn av deres polymerbaserte sammensetning ... -

Endringsledelse ved innføring av nytt prosjektstyringsverktøy
(Master thesis, 2023)Denne oppgaven har som formål å studere innføringen av en ny prosjektmodell og et tilhørende verktøy i et leverandørselskap, for og se på i hvor stor grad verktøyet faktisk har bidratt til en mer enhetlig prosjektgjennomføring ... -
Flomløpskapasitet ved ikke-ideelle strømningsforhold
(Master thesis, 2024)Viktigheten av tilstrekkelig flomløpskapasitet ble tydeliggjort da ekstremværet «Hans»' traff Sør-Norge sommeren 2023, og hyppigheten av slike flomhendelser er forventet å øke med fremtidens klima. I alle tilfeller er det ... -
Comparison of two hydrodynamic models for their rain-on-grid technique to simulate flash floods in steep catchment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)In this study, two hydrodynamic models, TELEMAC-2D and HEC-RAS 2D, were compared for their Rain-on-Grid (RoG) technique with a particular focus on runoff generation processes in a small and steep catchment. Curve number ... -
Impacts of slope and length on the hydrological performance of green roof drainage mats
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)This study evaluated the impact of the roof slope and length on the retention and detention performance of the drainage mats of green roofs. Artificial rainfall events were applied to a test bed at two different lengths ... -
Sirkulære anskaffelser av ombrukstegl i byggeprosjekter
