Retrofit of a Kindergarten Targeting Zero Energy Balance
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-11)Old buildings that are severe energy wasters and provide low indoor environmental quality (IEQ) form a large fraction of the European building stock. These buildings represent nevertheless, an asset that should be re-evaluated ... -
Retrofitting combined sewer systems with nature-based solutions using long-term climate scenarios
(Master thesis, 2020)Urbane fellessystemer verden rundt står overfor kapasitetsbegrensninger og tilpasningskrav for å kunne møte fremtidige klimaendringer. Separering av avløp og overvann i tette urbane strøk er ofte kostbart, samtidig som det ... -
Retrofitting of non-hydro reservoirs and dams in Menderes river basin, Turkey
(Master thesis, 2022)Abstrakt En økende global bekymring for vannmangel, klimaendringer og energiomstilling har satt fokus på vannkraftindustrien for rollen den spiller i å håndtere disse problemene. Mens vannoppdemming av demninger skaper ... -
Retrofitting of pressurized sand traps in hydropower plants
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Unlined pressure tunnels in sound rock, combined with pressurized sand traps at the downstream end, allow for low-cost construction of hydropower tunnel systems. This design concept is utilized in hydropower plants across ... -
RETUR AV LUFT I BEKKEINNTAKSSJAKTER
(Master thesis, 2018)Bekkeinntak er mykje brukt i vasskraftsystem i alpint landskap for utnytting av små nedbørsfelt. Overføring av vatn frå mindre bekkar til magasin gjev auka kraftproduksjon, samstundes som at omsyn til økonomi og miljø vert ... -
Reusing and recycling of railway ballast
(Master thesis, 2019)Målet med denne forskningen er å undersøke muligheter ved gjenbruk og gjenvinning av brukt jernbaneballast, ved å endre egenskapene og stivheten til ballasten. Litteratur, laboratorie tester og korte intervjuer er benyttet ... -
Review article: Inferring permafrost and permafrost thaw in the mountains of the Hindu Kush Himalaya region
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)The cryosphere reacts sensitively to climate change, as evidenced by the widespread retreat of mountain glaciers. Subsurface ice contained in permafrost is similarly affected by climate change, causing persistent impacts ... -
Review of adaptive thermal comfort models in built environmental regulatory documents
(Journal article, 2018)This paper presents the experimental validation of a thermal model describing the ZEB Test Cells Laboratory, located at the Gløshaugen campus of NTNU and SINTEF in Trondheim, Norway. Besides, a local sensitivity analysis ... -
A Review of Electricity Tariffs and Enabling Solutions for Optimal Energy Management
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)oday, electricity tariffs play an essential role in the electricity retail market as they are the key factor for the decision-making of end-users. Additionally, tariffs are necessary for increasing competition in the ... -
A review of environmental impacts of winter road maintenance
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The need for winter road maintenance (WRM) is changing in cold regions due to climate change. How the different modes of WRM will contribute to future overall emissions from infrastructure is therefore of great interest ... -
Review of multi‐domain approaches to indoor environmental perception and behaviour
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Building occupants are continuously exposed to multiple indoor environmental stimuli, including thermal, visual, acoustic, and air quality related factors. Moreover, personal and contextual aspects can be regarded as ... -
Review of rock stability models, slope stability and rockfall assessment for a section of Vestpynten-Bjørndalen (Svalbard)
(Master thesis, 2020)Geotekniske farer representerer en trussel mot samfunn over hele verden. I Området mellom Vestpynten og Bjørndalen i den arktiske øygruppen Svalbard finnes flere geotekniske farer som i senere tid har medført hendelser ... -
Review of Structural Mitigation Measures for Glacial Lake Outburst Floods
(Chapter, 2023)Glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) can pose significant threats to human life, property, and ecosystems. These flood events are strongly influenced by the retreat of glaciers and thus by climate change. Global warming ... -
Review of the relationship between aggregates geology and Los Angeles and micro-Deval tests
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Rock aggregates constitute the enormous volume of inert construction material used around the globe. The petrologic description as igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic types establishes the intrinsic formation pattern of ... -
Review of wave-ice interaction studies
(Chapter, 2018)In the past several decades, sea-ice cover in the Arctic Ocean advances later than usual in the autumns and retreats earlier in the springs due to climate change. Concomitantly, total area of ice cover reduces and average ... -
Reviewing the Learning Process through Creative Puzzle Solving
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Human beings are at a continuous learning process at various levels and with different motivations during their whole lifetime. Puzzle solving may beneficially be applied to increase the motivation, enhance the mastering ... -
Reviewing the long-term sustainability of urban water systems rehabilitation strategies with an alternative approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)It is generally difficult to assess the performance of an infrastructure with a substantially longer life span than economic models can handle, and the life cycle concepts in urban water systems are normally limited to ... -
