Evaluation of Fatigue during Pipeline Installationin Ultra Deep Waters
(Master thesis, 2010)The pipeline installation process as a part of developing oil and gas production fields in ultra deep water is a challenging task as it involves harsh environmental conditions, limited lay vessel capacity and a set of ... -
Evaluation of Flood Control in Stryn with Potential Hydropower Production
(Master thesis, 2022)Hovedmålet med forskningen er å evaluere muligheten for bruk av vannkraftproduksjon som virkemiddel for flomregulering i Stryn - en nasjonal lakseelv. For å nå målsetningen ovenfor ble det satt opp en distribuert hydrologisk ... -
Evaluation of Frequency Content of Accelerations Recorded on Trains Crossing Multi-span Bridges
(Chapter, 2023)The literature on drive-by methods that aim to estimate the dynamic properties of bridges from the acceleration response recorded on the vehicle is generally limited to highway bridges, with few studies focusing on railway ... -
Evaluation of Ice loads on Beitstadsundet bridge by deterministic and probabilistic approaches.
(Master thesis, 2019)Ice loads on the bridge piers can be one of the major components for the Extreme Limit State (ELS) combinations, specified in the Euro Code. In arctic and sub-arctic regions, the ice action on infrastructures such as ... -
Evaluation of Klimator as a Decision Support System in Practical Operation
(Master thesis, 2021)Gjennom masteroppgaven ble det vurdert hvor nyttig Klimator er som bruker støtte til avgjørelser i praktiske operasjoner. Evalueringen ble gjort gjennom en kombinasjon av en analyse av foreslåtte tiltak samme med en ... -
Evaluation of load-carrying capacity of a submersible platform subjected to accidental ice impacts
(Chapter, 2019)Floating glacial ice features of various sizes pose great threats to the structural integrity of offshore structures in arctic regions. Potential collisions with large icebergs should generally be avoided through proper ... -
Evaluation of Norwegian gradation based regulation for frost susceptibility of crushed rock aggregates in roads and railways
(Chapter, 2017)Norwegian road and railway construction practice has significantly changed during the last 40 years due to the replacement of natural gravel by crushed rock material as main aggregates in base, sub-base and frost protection ... -
Evaluation of occupant’s adaptive thermal comfort behaviour in naturally ventilated courtyard houses
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Purpose In vernacular buildings, many climatic and passive solutions have been used to create indoor thermal comfort. Seasonal occupant movement is an example of a traditional response to increasing thermal comfort. ... -
Evaluation of operational changes in Norwegian hydropower
(Master thesis, 2019)Around 98% of the energy in Norway comes from renewable sources and from this, 96% corresponds to hydropower, which has made it a central point in Norwegian water management. The growing interest in implementing an appropriate ... -
Evaluation of Pile Driving Effects on Slope Stability in Clay
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Pile driving can trigger slope failure, specifically in sensitive soil deposits or marginally stable slopes. Cases of slope failure during pile installation have been reported in countries such as Norway, Sweden and Canada ... -
Evaluation of Probabilistic Project Cost Estimates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Evaluation of cost estimates should be fair and give incentives for accuracy. These goals, we argue, are challenged by a lack of precision in what is meant by a cost estimate and the use of evaluation measures that do not ... -
Evaluation of Regionalization Methods for Hourly Continuous Streamflow Simulation Using Distributed Models in Boreal Catchments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Regionalization for prediction in ungauged basins at hourly resolution is important for water resources management (e.g. floods and hydropeaking). In this paper, calibration of 26 catchments (39-3090 km2 ) in mid-Norway ... -
Evaluation of Roundabout Designs using Driving Simulation
(Master thesis, 2015)A strong focus on traffic safety and an increasing number of cyclists in Norway, have caused a shift towards more continental roundabouts to be considered in order to lowering vehicle speeds at roundabouts. The objective ... -
Evaluation of sample disturbance of three Norwegian clays
(Chapter, 2017)The quality and reliability of laboratory test data in sensitive clay can significantly be affected by sample disturbance. In turn, sample disturbance may affect key design parameters such as compressibility, preconsolidation ... -
Evaluation of Small-strain stiffness of Tiller-Flotten Quick Clay and its Anisotropy using Bender Elements
(Master thesis, 2020)Jordegenskaper ved lav tøyning er veldig viktig i mange praktiske geotekniske problemer og seismologi aspekter. Redegjørelse av disse parameterne, inkludert skjærbølgehastighet, tilsvarende lav-tøyning skjærmodulus (Gmaks) ... -
Evaluation of snow simulations in SHyFT
(Master thesis, 2018)The main objective of this paper is to evaluate the SHyFT snow routine performance against observed snow data obtained from snow measurements in the field. SHyFT (Statkraft Hydrological Forecasting Toolbox) is an open ... -
Evaluation of snow simulations in SHyFT
(Master thesis, 2017)Snow is a very important component in the hydrological cycle in Norway and crucial for determining reservoir operation during the spring flood to ensure full reservoir and as little flood spill as possible. The Statkraft ... -
Evaluation of storage–discharge relationships and recession analysis-based distributed hourly runoff simulation in large-scale, mountainous and snow- influenced catchment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Evaluation of a recession-based “top-down” model for distributed hourly runoff simulation in macroscale mountainous catchments is rare in the literature. We evaluated such a model for a 3090 km2 boreal catchment and its ... -
Evaluation of Target Value Delivery and Opportunity Management as Complementary Practices
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Opportunity management and Target Value Delivery (TVD) have both been studied extensively but separately. The two approaches have been presented as solutions for increasing value in a project for the owner and users. ... -
Evaluation of the effect of aggregate mineralogy on the durability of asphalt pavements
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:110, Doctoral thesis, 2015)Shape, gradation, hardness and texture are among the aggregate characteristics necessary to consider during the asphalt mixture design process. However these characteristics do not provide direct information on the ...
