Improvement of Thermodynamic Properties in Combustion Research Facility with Symmetrical Ignition Sources
(Master thesis, 2016)The Constant Volume Combustion Chamber (CVCC) at the Combustion Laboratory at the Institute of Marine Technology has shown: (I) Temperature related issues that reduce reproducibility within test series. (II) The environment ... -
Improvements in automated derivation of owl ontologies from geospatial uml models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Standards from ISO/TC 211 are the foundation for modelling a universe of discourse in a geospatial context. UML models based on the standards, and in particular based on the UML profile defined in ISO 19103, have been ... -
Improvements in Demand-Controlled Ventilation to Reduce Energy Use and Improve Indoor Air Quality
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2022:363, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Buildings have become more airtight and insulated over the last years––a response to the acute need to reduce building energy demands in cold climates. However, to secure satisfactory indoor air quality (IAQ) this has led ... -
Improvements in Everlasting Privacy: Efficient and Secure Zero Knowledge Proofs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Verifiable electronic voting promises to ensure the correctness of elections even in the presence of a corrupt authority, while providing strong privacy guarantees. However, few practical systems with end-to-end verifiability ... -
Improvements in protection of medium voltage resonant grounded networks with distributed sources
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:386, Doctoral thesis, 2018)The increasing penetration of distributed generation into medium voltage networks creates challenges for traditional protective schemes developed for conventional radial systems with unidirectional power flows. Moreover, ... -
Improvements in Rules and Regulations to Support Sensemaking in Safety-critical Maritime Operations
(Chapter, 2019)The ability to handle maritime operations is increasingly dependent on control systems. Such systems play a crucial role in critical situations, by presenting safety-critical information that allows operators to make sense ... -
Improvements of a Kaplan type small turbine: Forbedre og vidreutvikle en Kaplan småturbin
(Master thesis, 2012)The goal with this master thesis was to establish Hill diagrams and improve a Kaplan turbine intended for use in Afghanistan. The turbine efficiency has been tested in setting 1 and 2. Turbine efficiency in setting 3 and ... -
Improvements of a numerical Algorithm for a certain Class of Colouring Problems
(Master thesis, 2014)We re-derive an algorithm used to calculate solutions for the edge-colouring and dimer problems for planar graphs. The theoretical background for this includes Pfaffian and then as Grassmann Integrals. We develop a new ... -
Improvements of the shuttlecock launcher robot BADDY
(Master thesis, 2021)Denne rapporten tar for seg en utviklingsprosess og forbedring av en allerede eksisterende robot, kalt BADDY. BADDY er en badmintonrobot som skyter ut fjærballer. Den nødvendige bakgrunnsinformasjonen har blitt hentet inn ... -

Improvements on colour histogram-based CBIR
(Master thesis, 2005)NORSK: Denne oppgaven prøver ut en del nye metoder for innholdsbasert bildesøk, med det for øye å forbedre resultatene fra rene fargehistogram-baserte metoder. Oppgaven ser også på hvordan man kan måle resultatene fra ... -
Improvements to nm scale crystal phase and orientation mapping by physical model comparison
(Master thesis, 2019)Mange teknologiske fremskritt drives av utvikling eller forbedring av nye eller eksisterende materialer. Fordi mange funksjonelle egenskaper henger sammen med den underliggende strukturen til materialet, er materialvitenskap ... -
Improvements within online decision support in a retail context - Estimation of customer's preferences over freshness of a product in an inventory model with complete upwards and downwards substitution
(Master thesis, 2018)This master thesis aims at the estimation of customers' preferences regarding the remaining shelf-life of products available on shelves of a store in a retail context. The research questions focused on how such preferences ... -

Improving Academic Achievement in First-Year Calculus: Theorizing the Case to Inform Future Interventions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)This study aims to examine the academic achievement and study behaviours in a mandatory, firstyear calculus course for engineering students. Students responded to identical survey items 12 years apart to determine changes ... -
Improving Accuracy of Computational Light Scattering Simulations by Improved Numerical Integration
(Master thesis, 2014)Numerical integration plays an important role in many large scale physics simulations, yet the accuracy of such computations are often overlooked when the integrator routine is implemented---if the integration result itself ... -
Improving Accuracy of MCPD Distance Measurements
(Master thesis, 2023)The distance measurements obtained with Multi-Carrier Phase Difference algorithms exhibit a bias in the estimated values. This work aims to explore ways to reduce the effects of the bias in the measurements. Initially, an ... -
Improving accuracy of the Shewhart-based data-reduction in IoT nodes using piggybacking
(Chapter, 2019)This paper proposes the use of Shewhart test to reduce the number of data-transmissions in IoT networks. It is shown to outperform the widely-used least mean square (LMS) based data reduction method in terms of the number ... -
Improving Adaptive Stress Testing: Reinforcement Learning using Monte Carlo Tree Search with Neural Network Policies
