The effect of seasonal variation on anthrax epidemiology in the upper Zambezi floodplain of western Zambia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Anthrax has become endemic throughout the upper Zambezi floodplain located in the Western Province of Zambia over the recent years. To date, no comprehensive study has been carried out to determine whether recurrence of ... -
The effect of spatial and temporal randomness of stochastically generated occupancy schedules on the energy performance of a multiresidential building
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Building performance simulation is frequently used to support building design, renovation, and operation. However, modelers are traditionally concerned with accurately describing technical input data, and have only limited ... -
The Effect of Surge Tank Throttling on Governor Stability, Power Control, and Hydraulic Transients in Hydropower Plants
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)This paper investigates the effect of surge tank throttling on governor stability, power control, and hydraulic transients in hydropower plants. The work is intended to be practical, but includes some new research. The ... -
The effect of ventilated air cavities on the hydrological performance of green roofs in Nordic countries.
(Master thesis, 2020)Grønne tak kan forbedre overvannshåndtering ved å forsinke og redusere flomtoppen ved en nedbørshendelse. Dette vil avlaste det offentlige avløps- eller overvannsnettet og kan redusere risikoen for flom. Flomtoppen blir ... -
The effects of hydropeaking on hyporheic interactions based on field experiments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Hydropeaking power production has the potential to pose serious challenges towards hydrology, water quality and ecology in the downstream water bodies. The effects of such abrupt changes of flow in hyporheic exchange have ... -
The effects of using large cutter diameters in hard rock TBM tunneling
(Master thesis, 2010)This thesis is written in cooperation with the Robbins Company to: - Document the effect of using large diameter cutters (19”) compared to smaller diameters (17”) - Document the effect of using 20” cutter rings on 19” ... -
The future of web-based maps: can vector tiles and HTML5 solve the need for high-performance delivery of maps on the web?
(Master thesis, 2012)The majority of the current maps available on the web with a standard browser are raster-based, which impose a couple of limitations with regard to functionality as well as performance. Most work is done on the server, and ... -
The hierarchy of public project governance frameworks: An empirical study of principles and practices in Norwegian ministries and agencies
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study public project governance frameworks in various ministries and agencies in Norway, following the introduction of such a framework on the topmost level (i.e. the cabinet) which ... -
The identification of quick clay layers from various sounding methods
(Master thesis, 2013)Numerous quick clay identification methods are reported to locate the quick clay layer from CPTu, rotary or total sounding data and electrical resistivity test results. However, their validity still needs to be verified ... -
The impact of Basemaps on Data Layers in a Web Map
(Master thesis, 2015)Web maps on the world wide web have experienced an increase in popularity the last decade. A vital component of any web map is the background layer acting as a reference layer for information presented on top. Although ... -
The impact of design ventilation rates on the indoor air quality in residential buildings: an Italian case study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The paper investigates the effects on building indoor air quality (IAQ) resulting from the choice of different design ventilation rates. A reference residential building was analysed by means of the multizone modelling ... -
The impact of external quality assurance of costs estimates on cost overruns: Empirical evidence from the norwegian road sector
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Cost overruns in transport infrastructure projects are prevalent and have been well documented in the literature; see, for instance, Flyvbjerg et al. (2003), Odeck (2004 and 2014) and Cantarelli et al. (2010). Governments ... -
The impact of fixed link projects to islands on accessibility and population development
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2020:50, Doctoral thesis, 2020)Norway has a long coastline, with many islands and fjords. Ferries play a vital role in enabling people to access these islands and to cross the fjords. However, in recent decades, several ferry services have been replaced ... -
The impact of fixed links on population development, housing and the labour market: The case of Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)This study compares 11 fixed link projects in Norway, linking islands to the mainland. The fixed links substantially increase the accessibility between the islands and the mainland. Thus, interaction between the islands ... -
