Improvement of flood forecasting simulations with the Telemark Flood Forecasting Model
(Master thesis, 2016)Flood is the most common environmental hazard worldwide and can have an devastating consequences affecting the economy, environment, and people. The causes and nature of flood may be different, but it is important to control ... -
Improving the Performance of Road Salt on Anti-Icing
(Master thesis, 2014)Winter maintenance is a challenging field, especially in parts of the world with a temperate climate. The friction of the road surface has to be kept at an acceptable level so that the demands for traffic safety and mobility ... -
Improving the post-failure properties in quick clays by treatment with potassium chloride
(Chapter, 2017)Installation of salt wells filled with potassium chloride may be used as a ground improvement method in quick-clay hazard areas. The migration of potassium chloride is self-driven by molecular diffusion. The effectiveness ... -
Improving Thermal Insulation of Timber Frame Walls by Retrofitting with Vacuum Insulation Panels – Experimental and Theoretical Investigations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Many of the Norwegian buildings from the 1960s–1980s with timber frame walls are ready for retrofitting. Retrofitting of these buildings with vacuum insulation panels (VIPs) may be performed without significant changes to ... -
Improving Thermal Insulation of Timber Frame Walls by Retrofitting with Vacuum Insulation Panels: Experimental and Theoretical Investigations
(Master thesis, 2010)A large amount of the buildings in Norway is from the 1960s-80s. Many of these buildings have timber frame walls and are now ready for retrofitting. Application of vacuum insulation panels (VIPs) can make it easier to ... -
Improving tropospheric corrections on large-scale Sentinel-1 interferogramsusing a machine learning approach for integration with GNSS-derived zenithtotal delay (ZTD)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Sentinel-1 mission with its wide spatial coverage (250 km), short revisit time (6 days), and rapid data dissemination opened new perspectives for large-scale interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) analysis. ... -
In search of success: Ex-post evaluation of a Norwegian motorway project
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Project success is a heterogeneous measure. Different stakeholders may have different definitions of successful project. Ex-post evaluation can and should be used to demonstrate whether a scheme has performed as promised ... -
In Situ Improvement of Highly Sensitive Clays by Potassium Chloride Migration
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Highly sensitive, low-saline clays, termed quick clays, represent a risk for large landslides. An in situ experiment was conducted in which salt wells filled with potassium chloride were installed to study how salt wells ... -
In Vitro Cell Composition Identification of Wood Decay Fungi by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Decay pathogens follow dissimilar metabolic mechanisms to cause irreversible damage to woody tissues. The objective of this study is to perform inter- and intra-species microbial cell structural comparison using attenuated ... -
In-situ characterization of Øysand sand with CPTU add-on tool Flow Cone and HPT
(Master thesis, 2023)Hydraulisk konduktivitet spiller en kritisk rolle for mange problemstillinger innenfor geoteknisk prosjektering, slik som heving av grunnen i en byggegrop eller bøttefundament på havets dyp. I konsolideringsteori spiller ... -
In-situ measurements of acoustic scattering from room elements
(Master thesis, 2010)The acoustic properties of a room are greatly affected by the amount of scattering from uneven surfaces and other scattering objects such as chandeliers. It is hard to measure the amount of scattering in a lab, and ... -
Inactivation of marine heterotrophic bacteria in ballast water by an Electrochemical Advanced Oxidation Process
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Seawater treatment is increasingly required due to industrial activities that use substantial volumes of seawater in their processes. The shipping industry and the associated management of a ship's ballast water are currently ... -
Incorporation of Polymers into Calcined Clays as Improved Thermal Insulating Materials for Construction
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Calcined clay is a Type Q supplementary cementing material according to EN197-1:2000. It possesses lower thermal conductivity than cement. To further improve its thermal insulation property, polymer-calcined clay complexes ... -
The increase of electric vehicle usage in Norway—incentives and adverse effects
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Purpose Norway has been named the Bcapital of Electric Vehicles (EVs) because the purchase and use of EVs in Norway has increased tremendously over the last few years.Currently, the fleet of EVs in Norway is the largest ... -
Increasing the Accuracy of Positioning in Mobile Mapping Systems - A method supported by Simultaneous Localization And Mapping
(Master thesis, 2017)In areas where GNSS satellite signals become weak or unavailable a period of time, accuracy of the positioning of mobile mapping systems based in aided inertial navigation can be drastically reduced. This can be problematic ... -
Increasing Utility Value of BIM in All Project Phases
(Master thesis, 2015)Many BIM applications have been developed since the concept of BIM was first published decades ago. Increased use of BIM has been most noticeable from 2000 until today in Norway, but the use and the achieved utility value ... -
