Expanding knowledge base for photovoltaic systems’ integration by contributing to the development of an experimental testing method for evaluation of their performance as climate screens
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2023:428, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) is a vital element of zero energy or zero emission buildings (ZEB). BIPV systems are integrated into the building envelope and generate electricity on-site during the expected service ... -
Spatio-temporal weather maps: Extracting weather information along a travel route
(Master thesis, 2023)Denne masteroppgåva studerer romleg-temporale vêrkart. Meir spesifikt ser den på korleis ein kartbrukar kan få informasjon om vêret langs ei reiserute. Å få informasjon om vêret på ein enkel måte, når ein flytte seg i både ... -
Ice and Ice Forces in Small Steep Rivers
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2023:431, Doctoral thesis, 2023)English summary Given the right circumstances ice can wreak havoc on riverine infrastructure. Ice runs pushing ice floes against bridge piers is frequently the governing design condition for bridges in cold regions. The ... -
Study and Discussion on Computational Efficiency of Ice–Structure Interaction by Peridynamic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The peridynamic (PD) theory is based on nonlocal mechanics and employs particle discretization in its computational domain, making it advantageous for simulating cracks. Consequently, PD has been applied to simulate ice ... -
Estimering av presskrefter ved mikrotunnelering i varierende grunnforhold
(Master thesis, 2023)Hensikten med denne masteroppgaven har vært å undersøke ulike metoder for å beregne presskraft som oppstår under mikrotunnelering i varierende grunnforhold. Grunnlag under bakken var delt opp som følgende lag: tørrskropleire, ... -
Digitalisering av rehabiliteringsprosjekter
(Master thesis, 2023)Formålet med studien er å utforske hvilke utfordringer som hindrer digitalisering av rehabiliteringsprosjekter, og hvilke tiltak som kan redusere utfordringene. Studien har til formål å se på et bredere aspekt enn kun den ... -
Effect of flow ramping on stranding potential related to river morphology—Developing hydraulic indices for peaking severity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Stranding can be an important negative effect downstream of peaking power plants. Much work is put into computing indices of peaking operation based on flow data from power plant outlets or in reaches downstream of power ... -
Reconstruction of 3D Building Models with Semantic Information Using Crowdsourcing Approaches
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2023:396, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Over the last decade, increasing municipalities have decided to gear up the construction of smart cities. The transformation to a smart city requires to digitalize the whole city as faithfully as possible. To accomplish ... -
Building Adaptation Measures Using Future Climate Scenarios—A Scoping Review of Uncertainty Treatment and Communication
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The global climate is changing. Predicting the impacts this will have on buildings is the first step in the process of finding suitable building adaptation measures. Future climate adaptation of buildings and infrastructure ... -
Airtightness Development in Large Timber Buildings: Case Study of a Zero-Emission Building in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Large timber buildings are increasingly used in the Nordic countries because of low greenhouse gas emissions and good access to timber. There is however uncertainty about the airtightness of the envelope of such buildings ... -
Evaluating the Impact of Public Participation Processes on Participants in Smart City Development: A Scoping Review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)This paper provides an overview of the current state of research on the evaluation methods of participatory processes in smart cities. Specifically, it aims to identify and analyze existing evaluation methods and frameworks ... -
An Ontology-Based Framework for Geospatial Integration and Querying of Raster Data Cube Using Virtual Knowledge Graphs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The integration of the raster data cube alongside another form of geospatial data (e.g., vector data) raises considerable challenges when it comes to managing and representing it using knowledge graphs. Such integration ... -
Assessment of the suitability of Green LiDAR in mapping lake bathymetry
(Research report, 2023)LiDAR stands for Ligth Detection And Ranging technology and is a measurement technique for detailed mapping of the Earth’s surface. The LiDAR sensors can be divided into two main types, the Red LiDAR which is based on the ... -
Human resilience and cultural change in the construction industry: communication and relationships in a time of enforced adaptation.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The construction industry will need to change to enhance performance and deliver more with less. This paper investigates how social science perspectives may help addressing challenges associated with enforced transformation. ... -
Gjennomføringsstrategier og usikkerhet i store komplekse prosjekter
(Master thesis, 2023)Megaprosjekter er store, komplekse, langvarige, har stor usikkerhet og en tendens til å gå over budsjett og estimert tid. Gjennomføringsstrategien er førende for prosjektets gjennomføringsmodell og prosjektkultur. I ... -
Livssyklusanalyse av behandling av tunnelslam ved bruk av filterpresse
