Effect of speed reductions for train punctuality
(Master thesis, 2012)The rail way sector has been losing market, required increased subsidies and failed to generate anticipated rate of return. Therefore there has been a strong interest to measure the performance of railway operators in terms ... -
Effect of storage and curing conditions at elevated temperatures on aerogel-incorporated mortar samples based on UHPC recipe
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The effect of elevated temperature during storage and curing of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) formulated aerogel-incorporated mortar (AIM) samples was investigated. It was found that an effective aerogel loading ... -
Effect of strain softening behaviours on run-out distance of a sensitive clay landslide
(Chapter, 2017)Reliable prediction of landslide triggering threshold and landslide run-out distance is essential for hazard risk assessment. The paper focuses on studying slides in sensitive clays, which represent a major geohazard in ... -
Effect of strain-softening behaviour on slope stability during pile driving
(Master thesis, 2020)Denne oppgåva tok sikte på å studere effekten av sprø materialoppførsel ved peleramming i nærleiken av ei skråning med sensitiv leire. Føremålet med oppgåva var å utforske om sprø materialoppførsel under peleramming kunne ... -
Effect of Strength Anisotropy on the Stability of Natural Slopes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)It is well known that low plasticity soft clays have large variations in undrained shear strength with the direction of loading. Laboratory experiments show typically a cross anisotropic behavior, where the undrained shear ... -
Effect of Sugar as an Additive on the Longevity of Salt on Pavements
(Master thesis, 2015)In winter maintenance of roads chemicals are applied to the road with the aim of ensuring that the friction is at an acceptable level so that the road is safe and accessible. Sodium chloride is a common used chemical due ... -
Effect of systematic completion on public construction projects
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze the effect of a systematic commissioning process on project management performance of construction projects, expressed as cost, time, quality and customer satisfaction. The ... -
Effect of Temperature and Prewetting for Ice Penetration with Sodium Formate
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Granular sodium formate (NaCOOH) is a popular deicer used at airports. It is mainly used to weaken compacted snow/ice and thereby facilitate mechanical ice removal. Earlier research has developed a set of methods quantifying ... -
Effect of Temperature on Measured Strength Parameters from Variations in Both Storage and Testing Temperatures
(Master thesis, 2017)The effect of temperature on laboratory tested mechanical properties of clay has been debated for many years. The fact that soil parameters are affected by variations in temperature is generally agreed upon, resulting in ... -
Effect of Testing Temperature on Stiffness, Strength and Apparent Sample Disturbance in Quick Clay Samples from NGTS Quick Clay Site Flotten
(Master thesis, 2018)The effect of temperature on laboratory measurements of soil strength and stiffness has occasionally been revisited as a research topic since the 1960 s. Previous studies indicate that both preconsolidation pressure and ... -
Effect of the scatter between CPTU measured parameters in soil classification
(Chapter, 2022)Using piezocones from different manufacturers may yield different results even if the equipment complies with international standards. This causes problems when soil investigation contractors, using different cones, operate ... -
Effect of Toe Erosion on Slope Stability

Effect of vertical load on lateral response and p-y curves for piles in cohesive soil - Numerical analyses of large diameter monopiles
(Master thesis, 2020)Pel fundamenter utsettes som oftest for både vertikale og horisontale laster samtidig. I integrerte analyser av offshore vindturbiner med monopelfundament modelleres horisontale jordreaksjoner vanligvis ved et sett av ... -
Effect of water level regulation on gradients and levee deposits in the Lake Øyeren delta, Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Water level changes resulting from a hydropower regulation have influenced water flow, gradients and sediment processes in the Lake Øyeren delta for about 150 years. They are reflected in the morphology of the islands on ... -
Effective Stress based Model for Natural Soft Clays incorporating Restructuration
(Chapter, 2018)Several advanced constitutive models have been developed over the last decades to reproduce the mechanical response of natural soft clays observed during laboratory testing and in the field. Features such as anisotropy, ... -
Effective stress models for soft Scandinavian clays
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:329, Doctoral thesis, 2019)The modelling of soft Scandinavian clays requires an effective stress based approach, if a complete stress response is to be provided for different loading conditions. Although, the observed behavior is complex, it is seen ... -
Effectiveness of resistivity cone penetration tests in salt-treated highly sensitive clay
(Journal article, 2017)Salt wells filled with potassium chloride may be used as landslide mitigation in highly sensitive quick clays, as the changed pore-water composition permanently improves the remoulded shear strength. To verify improvements, ... -
Effects of anisotropy, strain softening and shearing rate in numerical simulations of T-bar penetration in Onsøy clay
(Master thesis, 2011)The material behavior of clay includes strength anisotropy, where the active undrained shear strength is larger than the direct simple shear strength and the passive strength. Clay also experience strain softening, which ... -
Effects of Bottom-Up Blockage on Entrance Loss Coefficients and Head-Discharge Relationships for Pipe Culvert Inlets: Comparisons of Theoretical Methods and Experimental Results
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Culvert blockage is a recognized problem known to increase the risk of cross-drainage failure. Presently, the effects of bottom-up inlet blockage can be estimated using the theoretically derived energy loss method (ELM) ... -
Effects of changes on a building project: Simulation of the effects of small change orders on the building process
(Master thesis, 2010)Change orders are a significant source of waste in construction because they disrupt work flow and make planning difficult and unreliable. Many researchers have investigated the localized impacts of changes and construction ...
