The Arctic region is one of the remaining unexplored areas where large discoveries of petroleum still can be made. Large portions of the world's remaining worldwide undiscovered conventional hydrocarbon resources are ...

The Multi-terminal DC grid is expected to be built incrementally by interconnecting existing HVDC installations. In doing so, an enabling component is the DC-DC converter which also plays the role of a power flow controller. ...

In this thesis we model both dependent competing risks and semi-competing risks by means of first passage times in a gamma process. In both cases, we consider a terminal event, such as death of a person or component failure, ...

Advanced building envelope systems can contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and improve the energy flexibility of buildings while maintaining high levels of indoor environmental quality. Among different ...

Seismic surveys are well established in hydrocarbon prospecting, and technology for processing seismic data has been developed through decades. The first electromagnetic survey for hydrocarbon prospecting however, was ...

Hydropower plants and reservoirs can have negative impacts on their surrounding ecosystems. To limit such impacts, environmental regulations may be imposed. This paper provides a review of literature on the most commonly ...

Fremtidige akseleratorer som den kompakte lineære kollideren (CLIC) forventes å være sårbare for fenomenet fast beam-ion instability (FBII) på grunn av deres høye stråleintensitet og små tverrgående strålestørrelse. I ...
