Calibration of Horizontal Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler by three dimensional CFD simulations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)This study presents a calibration method of horizontal acoustic Doppler current profilers (H-ADCP), based on 3D Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. Rigidly mounted H-ACCPs are currently used to continuously ... -
Camera-Based Lane Detection—Can Yellow Road Markings Facilitate Automated Driving in Snow?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Road markings are beneficial to human drivers, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), and automated driving systems (ADS); on the contrary, snow coverage on roads poses a challenge to all three of these groups with ... -
Can a computer see what an ice expert sees? Multilabel ice objects classification with convolutional neural networks
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Computer-aided scene analysis has drawn much attention, especially in autonomous navigation and advanced navigation assistance systems for surface vessels. In ice-infested waters, multilabel ice object classification and ... -
Can calorimetry be used to measure the melting rate of deicers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Chemical deicers are used in winter maintenance of roads and runways to melt ice and restore a bare pavement. The melting rate of these deicers is a fundamental performance factor, but good test methods to quantify the ... -
Can CO2 sensors in the ventilation system of a pool facility help reduce the variability in the trihalomethane concentration observed in indoor air?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Volatile and hazardous compounds are formed during the chlorination of pool water. Monitoring components in the air, such as the four trihalomethanes; chloroform, dichlorobromomethane, dibromochloromethane and bromoform ... -
Can competing demands affect pro-environmental behaviour: a study of the impact of exposure to partly related sequential experiments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The study of human behaviour is central to the development of appropriate policies for sustainability. We argue that mathematical models of human choice behaviour may produce biased results if they fail to account for the ... -
Can Energy Depletion of Wild Atlantic Salmon Kelts Negotiating Hydropower Facilities Lead to Reduced Survival?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Repeat spawners constitute an important component of Atlantic salmon populations, but survival of post-spawning individuals (kelts) are often compromised by anthropogenic structures such as hydropower plants (HPPs). Potential ... -
Can model-based data products replace gauge data as input to the hydrological model?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Hydrological models require accurate and representative meteorological inputs for better prediction of discharge and hence, the efficient management of water resources. Numerical weather prediction model-based reanalysis ... -
Can shared mobility increase the use of public transport?
(Master thesis, 2020)En stor del av klimagassutslippene er fra vegtransport. Hvis land og byer skal nå nasjonale og internasjonale bærekraftsmål, må bilbruk og bileierskap reduseres. Delte mobilitetstjenester har dukket opp i bybildet, og ... -
Can Sugar-Based Additives Increase the Longevity of a Salt Application for Anti-Compaction of Snow? Development of an Experimental Procedure
(Master thesis, 2020)I vintersesongen påføres det store mengder salt på vegbanen for å sikre trafikksikkerhet og god fremkommelighet på veiene. Salt blir påført på veien for å forhindre at vann fryser til is (anti-ising), forhindre snø fra å ... -
Cartographic Generalisation with Deep Learning
(Master thesis, 2020)Denne oppgaven eksperimenterer med bruk av milepæler innenfor «Dyp læring» (Deep Learning), dvs. nevrale nettverk, for å utføre kartografisk generalisering. Dette utføres typisk med veldefinerte algoritmer for kart ... -
Cascading trade-off studies for robotic deburring systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Advanced manufacturing technologies play an important role in keeping production in high-cost countries. Due to their flexibility, robot-based solutions have been one of the major enablers in establishing advanced manufacturing ... -
Case Report: Adjusting Seat and Backrest Angle Improves Performance in an Elite Paralympic Rower
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Paralympic rowers with functional impairments of the legs and trunk rely on appropriate seat configurations for performance. We compared performance, physiology, and biomechanics of an elite Paralympic rower competing in ... -
Case Study of Dam Overtopping from Waves Generated by Landslides Impinging Perpendicular to a Reservoir’s Longitudinal Axis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Landslide-generated impulse waves in dammed reservoirs run up the reservoir banks as well as the upstream dam slope. If large enough, the waves may overtop and even breach the dam and cause flooding of the downstream area ... -
