Weight Estimation of Steam Cycle for CO2 Capture System on Offshore Oil and Gas Installation
(Master thesis, 2016)Climate change due to increasing anthropogenic CO2 emissions is a major concern both in Norway, and globally. Greater environmental focus and increased taxes on emitted CO2 have led to corporate efforts on reducing CO2 ... -
Weight Loss and Reduction in Gastroesophageal Reflux. A Prospective Population-Based Cohort Study: The HUNT Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)OBJECTIVES:High body mass index (BMI) is an established risk factor of gastroesophageal reflux symptoms (GERS). The aim of this study was to clarify if weight loss reduces GERS.METHODS:The study was part of the Nord-Trondelag ... -
Weight loss maintenance – a tortuous path
(Journal article, 2017)The long-term maintenance of a reduced body weight remains the main challenge in obesity management, with only a small group being successful after conservative treatment (1). Physiological adaptations, such as increased ... -
Weight Margins and Flexibility in Offshore Rigs
(Master thesis, 2013)The subject of this paper is the use of weight margins in the design and fabrication of large offshore oilrigs. Margins are a way of increasing the freedom of choice of the designers and a method of increasing the overall ... -
Weight status and hypertension among adolescent girls in Argentina and Norway: Data from the ENNyS and HUNT studies
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)Background: To provide data on overweight, obesity and hypertension among adolescent girls in Norway and Argentina. Methods: Data was obtained from two population-based, cross-sectional and descriptive studies containing ... -
Weight-bearing characteristics during standing in adults with Cerebral Palsy
(Master thesis, 2011)Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate weight-bearing characteristics in young adults with CP compared to young healthy adults in both quiet and relaxed standing. Methods: Two standing conditions were tested, one ... -
Weighted approximation in C
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)We prove that if {φj}j is a sequence of subharmonic functions which are increasing to some subharmonic function φ in C , then the union of all the weighted Hilbert spaces H(φj) is dense in the weighted Hilbert ... -
Weighted Pattern Matching with PWMs on FPGAs
(Master thesis, 2006)This paper has presented a solution to an FPGA-based PWM matcher in the form of the so-called FPWM Prototype, using the hardware facilities on the Cray XD1 Supercomputer. The prototype implementation currently runs as a ... -
Weighting of Celestial and Terrestrial Cues in the Monarch Butterfly Central Complex
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Monarch butterflies rely on external cues for orientation during their annual long-distance migration from Northern US and Canada to Central Mexico. These external cues can be celestial cues, such as the sun or polarized ... -
Weightless Neural Network-Based Detection and Diagnosis of Visual Faults in Photovoltaic Modules
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The present study introduces a novel approach employing weightless neural networks (WNN) for the detection and diagnosis of visual faults in photovoltaic (PV) modules. WNN leverages random access memory (RAM) devices to ... -
Weights of Evidence Model and Onset of Civil War: Favourability Analysis and Evaluation
(Master thesis, 2010)This thesis explores the use of the weights of evidence (WOFE) model for studying civil war onset in a spatial context. Previous study of civil war has extensively studied a range of geographic factors, and how these affect ... -
Weinberg’s 3HDM potential with spontaneous CP violation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)We study the potential of Weinberg’s Z2 × Z2-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet model. The potential is designed to accommodate CP violation in the scalar sector within a gauge theory, while at the same time allowing for natural ... -
The WEIRDness of QoE research: The diversity of QoMEX authorship considering locality and gender
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The situatedness of researchers and developers influences the whole research process from ideas to methods to results. To assess the diversity of perspectives in the QoE field, we conducted a quantitative content analysis ... -
"Welcome to the show" : a study of 'framing' of comedy shows in London
(Master thesis, 2015)This thesis is based on fieldwork conducted at three different comedy clubs in, and around, London, UK during spring semester 2014. In this thesis, I discuss how humour is inherently social, and that the comical is closely ... -
Welcome To The Syndrome-X Family: A song of Knowledge and Hope in a digital family group
(Master thesis, 2022)Sosiale media har åpnet steder for tilknytning og samfunn hvor dette før ikke har vært en mulighet. Facebook-grupper for foreldre som har barn med sjeldne tilstander er eksempler på slike steder, og denne avhandlingen er ... -
Welcome, capable, valuable? A salutogenic approach to social inclusion of immigrants through volunteering
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:264, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Continuously increasing migration trends and increasing diversity in societies all over the world make social inclusion a matter that needs attention. Including immigrants in volunteering is proposed as a central strategy ... -
