3D CFD modeling of local scouring, bed armoring and sediment deposition
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)3D numerical models are increasingly used to simulate flow, sediment transport and morphological changes of rivers. For the simulation of bedload transport, the numerical flow model is generally coupled with an empirical ... -
A New Technical Concept for Water Management and Possible Uses in Future Water Systems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)A new degree of freedom in water management is presented here. This is obtained by displacing water, and in this paper is conceptually explained by two methods: using an excavated cavern as a container for compressed air ... -
An analysis of the potential impact of climate change on the structural reliability of drinking water pipes in cold climate regions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The climate is changing worldwide. For the northern hemisphere there are distinct challenges related to climate change. It is expected that temperature on a general basis will increase within the next 100 years, and that ... -
An Assessment of Ice Effects on Indices for Hydrological Alteration in Flow Regimes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Preserving hydrological variability is important when developing environmental flow regimes, and a number of tools have been developed to support this process. A commonly applied method is the index of hydrological alteration ... -
Application of a Rapid and Simple UV-spectrophotometric method for the study of desorption of esterquat collectors in Tailings-Seawater Systems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The growing demand for mineral resources followed by the steady increase in mining activity result in the need for the disposal of large amount of tailings. Submarine tailings placements (STPs) is a viable option to ... -
Application of Regression-Based Machine Learning Algorithms in Sewer Condition Assessment for Ålesund City, Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Predicting the condition of sewer pipes plays a vital role in the formulation of predictive maintenance strategies to ensure the efficient renewal of sewer pipes. This study explores the potential application of ten machine ... -
Application of Three-Dimensional CFD Model to Determination of the Capacity of Existing Tyrolean Intake
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)CFD models of intakes in high-head hydropower systems are rare due to the lack of geometric data and cost of modeling. This study tests two different types of software to see how modeling can be performed in a cost-effective ... -
Assessing and Mitigating Ice-Jam Flood Hazards and Risks: A European Perspective
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The assessment and mapping of riverine flood hazards and risks is recognized by many countries as an important tool for characterizing floods and developing flood management plans. Often, however, these management plans ... -
Assessing Visual Preferences of the Local Public for Environmental Mitigation Measures of Hydropower Impacts—Does Point-of-View Location Make a Difference?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Hydropower is a highly appreciated climate-friendly source of energy production. However, it has non-negligible negative impacts on the environment and landscape aesthetics where the energy is produced, affecting the ... -
Bedload Velocity and Backscattering Strength from Mobile Sediment Bed: A Laboratory Investigation Comparing Bistatic Versus Monostatic Acoustic Configuration
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Despite the many advantages of using active ultrasound sonars, recent studies have shown that the specific acoustic geometry, signal-processing configuration, and complex surface-volume scattering process at the riverbed ... -
Combining Fish Passage and Sediment Bypassing: A Conceptual Solution for Increased Sustainability of Dams and Reservoirs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Sedimentation is one of the main eco-morphological and technological challenges associated with reservoirs. Sedimentation not only reduces the functional capacity of a reservoir by filling it, but also changes downstream ... -
Comparing three approaches to estimating optimum white water kayak flows in Western Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background: Modern water management strategies aim to assess the impact of water regulation alternatives on all relevant ecosystem services, including white water (WW) recreation. Therefore it is important to estimate the ... -
A Conflict between Traditional Flood Measures and Maintaining River Ecosystems? A Case Study Based Upon the River Lærdal, Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Floods are among the most damaging of natural disasters, and flood events are expected to increase in magnitude and frequency with the effects of climate change and changes in land use. As a consequence, much focus has ... -
Data Integration for Investigating Drivers of Water Quality Variability in the Banja Reservoir Watershed
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)It is increasingly important to know the water quality of a reservoir, given the prospect of an environment poor in water reserves, which are based on intense and short-lived precipitation events. In this work, vegetation ... -
Deciphering the Composition of Fulvic Acids from Recirculating Aquaculture Systems by Quadrupole Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The constant reuse of waters in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) together with the continuous addition of organic matter from fish degradation components, faeces and non-consumed feed promote the accumulation of ... -
Detention and Retention Behavior of Four Extensive Green Roofs in Three Nordic Climate Zone
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Climate change coupled with increasing urbanization has made extensive green roofs, both for retrofitting and new developments, an attractive way to bring nature back to cities, while managing stormwater. This study has ... -
