Miljøøkonomi og samfunnsøkonomisk lønnsomhet
(Concept Rapport, 0804-5585; 22, Research report, 2009)Denne rapporten handler om hvordan miljøvirkninger av store investeringsprosjekter, negative eller positive, kan hensyntas i vurderingen av den samfunnsøkonomiske lønnsomheten av disse. Studien gir en sammenfatning av ... -
MILL wifi Heaters with Advanced PID Technology: A simulation-based test
(Research report, 2023)In Norway, buildings sector accounts for 34% of the total energy consumption [1]. Where, over 84% of residential building’s energy consumption has been covered by direct/indirect electricity (i.e., electric heaters / heat ... -
Minimum requirements to ice management barrier systems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Ice management (IM) is defined as all activities carried out with the objective of mitigating hazardous situations by reducing or avoiding actions from any kind of ice features to a protected unit (e.g. a drilling vessel). ... -
Misleading effect and spatial learning in head-mounted mixed reality-based navigation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Mixed reality technology has been increasingly used for navigation. While most MR-based navigation systems are currently based on hand-held devices, for example, smartphones, head-mounted MR devices have become more and ... -
Mitigation of environmental effects of frequent flow ramping scenarios in a regulated river
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In the transition to a society based on renewable energy, flexibility is important in balancing the energy supply as more intermittent sources like wind and solar are included in the energy mix. The storage-based hydropower ... -
Mitigation of Uncertainties in Rainfall-Induced Landslide Prediction Models in a Changing Climate - Kvam Case Study
(Master thesis, 2017)One of the main challenges in providing consistent and accurate predictions of rainfall-induced landslides is the large uncertainty involved in the assessment. This thesis demonstrates the potential of an alternative ... -
Mixed Ground TBM Tunneling in Mexico City
(Master thesis, 2016)The Mexico City Metropolitan area with its 21 million people is one of the most populated places on earth. The population growth together with the sinking of some parts of the city are now challenging the capacity of the ... -
Mixed Hardening Models for Frictional Soils
(Dr. ingeniøravhandling, 0809-103X; 2003:21, Doctoral thesis, 2003)A new material model mainly for frictional soil is developed and implemented in a finite element program. The model is applied to simulate a deep excavation with a supporting tie back wall. The model is based on ... -
Mixed Method for Isogeometric Analysis of Coupled Flow and Deformation in Poroelastic Media
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Pressure oscillations at small time steps have been known to be an issue in poroelasticity simulations. A review of proposed approaches to overcome this problem is presented. Critical time steps are specified to alleviate ... -
Mixed Reality in an Agricultural Context
(Master thesis, 2022)Bakteppet for denne oppgaven er den fjerde landbruksrevolusjonen, også kjent som Agriculture 4.0. Dette nylige skiftet kan sees på som en digital revolusjon, der nye former for teknologier blir implementert i sektoren for ... -
MMI i prosjekteringsprosessen
(Master thesis, 2021)I moderne prosjekteringsprosesser vil en, i større eller mindre grad, måtte forholde seg til Bygnings Informasjons Modellering (BIM). Hvor omfattende bruken av BIM er vil variere, men de fleste aktører vil påvirkes. I en ... -
Mobile Drilling Robot - A Case Study Of The Effects On The Construction Site
(Master thesis, 2017)Several studies have shown that there is an improvement potential in the construction industry. It is argued that while the construction industry has gone through a steady and gradual increase in turnover, the productivity ... -
Mobile Mapping Systems and Spatial Data Collection Strategies in the Identification of Horizontal Alignment of Highways
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The horizontal alignment of existing highways may be identified by using several terrestrial or aerial geomatics technologies. Such technologies involve different levels of precision and accuracy; hence, different results ... -
Model for dimensioning required area for snow banks - A study of snow bank parameters
(Master thesis, 2017)After snow events, winter maintenance crews typically plow snow from the driving lanes to the side of the road, creating snow banks. Snow banks may impact cyclists and pedestrians as sidewalks are often used for temporary ... -
A Model for Research of Transitions among Different Care Settings in Smart Lifetime Neighborhoods
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Neighbourhoods in EU member states are ageing, increasingly becoming the subjects of geo-gerontology and supply network analyses. Geo-gerontological aspects of the care and supply networks are becoming essential in the ... -
Model Scale Test of Towing Operations in Managed Sea Ice
(Master thesis, 2016)Towing operation in open water is a well-established marine operation. However, as offshore explorations move further north, more and more Arctic Offshore Platforms are to be designed and constructed. In the meantime, ... -
Model scale testing of CPTU in a silty soil
(Master thesis, 2013)The cone penetration test (CPTU) in silty soil in a model scale were conducted in two samples: MMT and SD sample. The thesis studies the effect of the boundary conditions (soft and rigid boundaries) and the effect of the ... -
Model Testing and Rheology of a Fine Grain Rich Debris Flow
(Master thesis, 2018)Debris flows are a hazardous type of landslide, primarily caused by intense precipitation in steep mountainous terrain. Water, soil and debris mix to form a slurry that advances rapidly downslope, growing in size as it ... -
Model testing of conepenetration in silt with numerical simulations
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2014:207, Doctoral thesis, 2014)Interpretation of results from CPTU testing in silty soils is very challenging and it is hard to obtain reliable design parameters. The main reason is that penetration in silts may occur under partially drained conditions. ... -
Model Testing of the Drainage Screen Type Debris Flow Breaker
(Master thesis, 2016)Debris flows are a hazardous geological phenomenon occurring in mountainous terrain. In Norway the National Public Roads Administration has registered around 1060 debris flows since the 1970's. The damages caused by a ...
