Durability of traditional clamped joints in the vapour barrier layer: Experimental and numerical analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Clamped joints of wood frame buildings are a traditional way in Norway to attain airtight joints for the air and vapour barrier. Numerous defects registered in the SINTEF Building Defects Archive related to air leakage ... -
Durability of Vacuum Insulation Panels in Alkaline Environment
(Master thesis, 2012)Concrete and lightweight concrete elements are today used in various building applications to a great extent all over the world. Replacing traditional thermal insulation like e.g. expanded polystyrene (EPS), extruded ... -
Durability testing of low clinker blends - chloride ingress in similar strength mortar exposed to seawater
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2017)Resistance to chloride ingress of ten different binders was investigated. Most of the binders were prepared with 35% substitution of a new clinker by limestone filler, calcined clay, burnt shale and/or siliceous fly ash. ... -
Durability, Reaction to Fire Properties and Environmental Impact of Treated and Untreated Wooden Claddings
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)This work summarizes the output of durability, reaction to fire properties, and environmental impact of wooden claddings subjected to treatments modified with TiO2 and clay nanoparticles. The objective was to investigate ... -
Durability-based design: the European perspective
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In Europe, design for the durability of new reinforced concrete structures is currently based on a prescriptive approach. The design, execution (construction) and planned maintenance of a concrete structure have to lead ... -
Durability-Enhanced Vanadium Dioxide Thermochromic Film for Smart Windows
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Vanadium dioxide (VO2)–based thermochromic films are of great interest for energy-saving smart windows as they can dynamically change the solar transmittance as the ambient temperature changes. However, VO2 is thermodynamically ... -
Durability-related crack width and concrete cover requirements and recommendations from reinforced concrete design codes
(Research report, 2018)This report provides an overview of several international code requirements and recommendations from technical committees concerning impact of cracks on durability of reinforced concrete. Most requirements and recommendations ... -
Durable low ice adhesion foams modulated by submicron pores
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Ice accretion is a severe challenge for both production and livelihood in cold regions. Previously reported high-performance icephobic surfaces by infusing lubricants are either temporarily icephobic, chemically unstable ... -
Duration of breastfeeding, age at introduction of complementary foods and allergy-related diseases: a prospective cohort study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background The influences of breastfeeding and infant diet in the prevention of allergy-related diseases are uncertain and many of the studies conducted on the topic are limited by methodological challenges. Our aim was ... -
Duration of On-Campus Academic Engagements of Student Teachers in Finland and Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The duration of on-campus academic engagements is an uncertain and highly debated indicator of study input. Researchers adopt this indicator with the expectation that student teachers must invest an amount of time and ... -
