A Model-based Approach for Clinical Evaluation of Left Ventricular Deformation
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2004:48, Doctoral thesis, 2004)Assessment of left ventricular (LV) deformation is essential for clinical evaluation of LV function and cardiac images are frequently used to evaluate the LV motion and function. By combining the images with mathematical ... -
A modelling framework to support environmental design in regulated rivers
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:141, Doctoral thesis, 2019)Despite the fact that environmental design and mitigation measures in regulated rivers have been widely applied in the last decades, yet it is still a challenge to find a method that supports a sustainable balance between ... -
A Modular Method for High- Level Service Specification and Component Design Derivation
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2017:259, Doctoral thesis, 2017)This thesis addresses the problem of specifying the behaviour of distributed reactive systems in such a way that the component behaviours can be derived automatically. This automation demands specifications to be complete ... -
A Modular Security Analysis of EAP and IEEE 802.11
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2017:290, Doctoral thesis, 2017)This thesis presents a computational reduction-based security analysis of the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) and the IEEE 802.11 protocol. EAP is a widely used authentication framework while IEEE 802.11 is the ... -
A Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Method for Solar Building Design
(Dr. ingeniøravhandling, 0809-103X; 2000:23, Doctoral thesis, 2000)The background for this thesis is based on the assumption that the success of solar buildings relies on the assessment and integration of all the different design objectives, called criteria. These criteria are often quite ... -
A multi-method approach to explore risk factors in truck-bicycle encounters
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:40, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Currently, the numbers of cyclists are increasing in many cities worldwide. People are encouraged and motivated to cycle, as it improves their health, reduces the negative effect of car traffic and creates more liveable ... -
A Multi-Perspective Observation of Site Museums: Case study of Archaeological Site Museums in China, with Norwegian Example as Reference
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:118, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Based on the documentation and analysis of anthropological fieldwork carried out from 2009 to 2015 on three selected site museum cases, this dissertation focuses on the phenomenon of installation management in Chinese site ... -
A Multicultural Society in the Making: How Norwegian Muslims challenge a white nation
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2012:330, Doctoral thesis, 2012)This doctoral thesis explores the current process of Norway becoming a multicultural society, more specifically when Norwegian Muslims challenge ‘white’ perceptions of the nation. I apply Tariq Modood’s theory of political ... -
A multidisciplinary study of shoreline landslides:From geological development to geohazard assessment in the bay of Trondheim, Mid-Norway
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2009:143, Doctoral thesis, 2009)The periodic occurrence of landslides in near-shore environments is common worldwide and poses a constant threat to coastal communities. Multidisciplinary studies on a regional scale have shown to be fruitful in understanding ... -
A multifluid-PBE model for reactive bubbly flow: Applied to biofuel production via the Fischer- Tropsch synthesis operated in a slurry bubble column
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU;2018:291, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Summary of thesis: A multifluid-PBE model for reactive bubbly flow Although electricity is transforming the transportation sector, liquid fuels are believed to remain in demand in the near future. With the ... -
A Multiphase Pump Experimental Analysis
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2016:215, Doctoral thesis, 2016)This research project focuses on the characterization of the behaviour of a mixed-flow pump under off-design conditions and two-phase operation, in terms of performance degradation and instabilities. The recent multiphase ... -
