Behaviour of 60-year-old trial embankments on peat
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The search for low cost solutions for roads on peatlands inspired the construction of four full scale trial embankments at two sites in Norway in the early 1960's. The embankments are still accessible and this work was ... -
Engineering properties of Norwegian peat for calculation of settlements
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Despite some 9% of Norway's area being underlain by peat the geotechnical characteristics of the material have not been well documented. As peatlands form an excellent carbon sink there is much pressure on planning authorities ... -
Flow of non-Newtonian fluids in single fractures and fracture networks: Current status, challenges, and knowledge gaps
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Flow of non-Newtonian fluids in rock fractures is ubiquitous in engineering practice and involves e.g. cement flow in tunnel grouting, drilling fluid flow when a fracture is met during drilling, and flow of fracturing ... -
Quantifying groundwater exploitation induced subsidence in the Rafsanjan Plain, southeastern Iran, using InSAR time-series and in situ measurements
(Journal article, 2017)Decades of groundwater overexploitation for agriculture and industrial development have resulted in substantial land subsidence in the Rafsanjan plain of southeastern Iran. This work presents the results of an InSAR time ... -
Rock-avalanche deposit causes extreme high indoor radon concentrations in Kinsarvik, Ullensvang municipality, Western Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The radon problem in Kinsarvik, Ullensvang municipality in Western Norway, is among the most severe in the world. Annual average indoor radon concentrations as high as 56,000 Bq/m3 have been measured. The problem affects ...
