Indoor positioning using Bluetooth
(Master thesis, 2016)As GNSS is not accurate enough for indoor use, several systems using alternative technologies for indoor positioning have been developed. Most prominent are the systems based on Wi-Fi. These rely on the strength of the ... -
Industry 4.0: Potential Effects and Implementation
(Master thesis, 2019)Hensikt - Industrialisert byggeindustri møter stadig mer komplekse og krevende krav fra kunder. Innovative industrier som bilindustrien og mekaniske prosessindustrier har klart å integrere nye teknologier, som den ... -
Infiltrasjon i regnbed: Effekter av veisalt
(Master thesis, 2013)Regnbed er et terrengtilpasset infiltrasjonsanlegg beplantet med naturlig og stedstilpasset vegetasjon, som samler opp, fordrøyer og infiltrerer urbant overvann. Fysiske, kjemiske og biologiske prosesser som naturlig foregår ... -
Infiltrasjonssandfang - Dimensjoneringskriterier og kapasitetsmåling
(Master thesis, 2017)Denne masteroppgaven omhandler infiltrasjonsbaserte kumløsninger, og fokuserer på en typisk «standardisert» løsning, IFS-kum (infiltrasjonssandfangskum). Kummen er utviklet av StormAqua i Sandnes. Oppgaven er også et ... -
Infiltration based systems for stormwater management with multipurpose use
(Master thesis, 2020)Overvannsproblematikk grunnet klimaendringer og stadig utvikling av urbane områder er en voksende utfordring rundt om i verden. Dette har ført til økende behov for bærekraftige løsninger for overvannshåndtering, og interessen ... -
Infiltration Response of Adsorbent Amended Filters for Stormwater Management under Freezing/Thawing Conditions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Coastal cold climates experience frequent intermittent melting and freezing periods over the cold period. This intermittent freezing in stormwater systems affects the infiltration capacity and hence the performance. This ... -
Infiltration/Inflow Assessment and Detection in Urban Sewer System
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Infiltration and inflow (I/I) of non-sewer water into the urban sewer system is a critical problem in the long term for sustainable urban water management and water infrastructural asset management, with serious environmental, ... -
Influence from Asperities - Modelling of Laboratory Test
(Master thesis, 2017)Traditional stability analysis of concrete dams is based on the Mohr-Coulomb failure criteria with a peak friction angle to find the shear capacity. The peak friction angle is often in the range between 40 and 50 degrees, ... -
The influence of acclimatization, age and gender-related differences on thermal perception in university buildings: Case studies in Scotland and England
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Abstract The higher education sector in the UK is responsible for large amount of the country’s energy consumption. Space heating, which is the largest and most expensive part of the energy used in the UK educational ... -
Influence of concrete’s mechanical properties on the cracking of concrete dams
(Chapter, 2021)Analytical methods of structural stability assessment of concrete dams are often too simple and thus conservative in their predictions.Without the actual foundation geometry, capacity for some rigid body failure modes are ... -
Influence of earth pressure coefficients on numerical simulations in RAMMS
(Master thesis, 2020)Denne oppgaven innebærer undersøkelser av effekten som jordtrykkskoeffisienter har i numeriske modelleringer av flomskred. Flomskredene består av en blanding av jord, vann og stein og kan oppstå av ulike årsaker. Flomskred ... -
Influence of Evacuation Walkway Design Parameters on Passenger Evacuation Time along Elevated Rail Transit Lines Using a Multi-Agent Simulation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Passenger evacuation on elevated railway lines has always been an important issue for elevated rail transit safety management, because it is challenging to evacuate passengers efficiently in the event of man-made calamities ... -
Influence of grain size, organic carbon and organic matter residue content on the sorption of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in aqueous film forming foam contaminated soils - Implications for remediation using soil washing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)A soil that was historically contaminated with Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) was dry sieved into size fractions representative of those produced during soil washing. Batch sorption tests were then conducted to investigate ... -
Influence of Gravel-Bed Porosity and Grain Orientation on Bulk Flow Resistance
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)This paper presents results from experiments that were carried out to study the effect of porosity and grain orientation on flow resistance. Experiments were performed over three rough surfaces; a water-worked gravel-bed, ... -
The Influence of Icephobic Nanomaterial Coatings on Solar Cell Panels at High Latitudes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Solar energy’s penetration at high latitudes has been boosted during recent years, but snow deposits during the winter still limit its exploitation. Therefore, various solutions for snow removal, such as icephobic coatings, ... -
Influence of large-scale asperities on the shear strength of concrete-rock interface of small buttress dams
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)This paper presents an investigation of the influence of large-scale asperities on the shear strength of four physical models of a pillar (also known as buttress web)from Kalhovd dam in Norway. The objective was to observe ... -
Influence of large-scale asperities on the stability of concrete dams
(Chapter, 2022)For concrete dams founded on rock, there are only a few options in the common analysis methods to account for large‐scale asperities. However, previous research alludes that they have a significant impact on the behaviour ... -
Influence of Local Weather Conditions on Ventilation of a Pitched Wooden Roof
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)This paper investigates the influence of temperature and wind conditions on ventilation of the air cavity beneath the roofing in a full-scale pitched wooden roof construction. The potential for condensation in the air ... -
Influence of location of large-scale asperity on shear strength of concrete-rock interface under eccentric load
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The location and geometry of large-scale asperity present at the foundation of concrete gravity dams and buttress dams affect the shear resistance of the concrete-rock interface. However, the parameters describing the ... -
