Effektivitet og kost-nytte forhold av fysiske miljøtiltak i vassdrag
(LFI - Laboratorium for ferskvannsøkologi og innlandsfiske;, Research report, 2020)Det er økt fokus på bedring av fysiske miljøforhold i vassdrag, og med dette har behovet for å kunne vurdere kostnader og nytte ved slike tiltak økt. Prinsippet om «positiv kost-nytte» legges eksempelvis til grunn ved ... -
Influence of Shell Materials on the Optical Performance of VO2 Core-Shell Nanoparticle-Based Thermochromic Films
(Journal article, 2021)VO2 nanoparticle–based thermochromic films have shown great promise for applications in smart windows because of their relatively high luminous transmittance and solar modulation ability. To improve the lifetime of VO2 ... -
Optically-Switchable Thermally-Insulating VO2-Aerogel Hybrid Film for Window Retrofits
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Developing easy-to-install energy-efficient window retrofitting materials is important for reducing the heating and cooling loads of buildings. However, it is very challenging to achieve window retrofits that are simultaneously ... -
Development of environmental contours for first-year ice ridge statistics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Ice ridges represent a major threat to ships and offshore structures in areas with sea ice but no icebergs, since they frequently determine and govern the structural design loads. This work focuses on the development of ... -
Statistics of thickness and strength of first-year ice along the Northern Sea Route
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In this paper, statistics of ice thickness and ice strength of first-year sea ice along the Northern Sea Route (NSR) is studied to provide useful information for the design and operation of Arctic ships. Specifically, ice ... -

Quantifying Icebreaker Performance in Ice Management Operations by High-Fidelity Numerical Simulations
(Chapter, 2020)In the study presented in this paper, the problem of quantifying the performance of icebreaker operations within ice management (IM) has been targeted, using the capabilities of high-fidelity simulations by a discrete ... -
An efficient transient‐state algorithm for evaluation of leakage through defective cutoff walls
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Artificial barriers are widely used to prevent leakages. However, due to construction errors during the wall installation, passages with small dimensions may occasionally penetrate through the barrier, undermining its ... -
Blockage Correction and Reynolds Number Dependency of an Alpine Skier: A Comparison Between Two Closed-Section Wind Tunnels.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of blockage effect and Reynolds Number dependency by comparing measurements of an alpine skier in standardized positions between two wind tunnels with varying blockage ... -
Understanding the governance of urban water services from an institutional logics perspective
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In recent decades, the urban water sector has experienced accelerating social complexity that derives from conflicting goals and beliefs, making the sustainability of the sector primarily a governance issue. However, ... -
