A Combined Level Set/Ghost Cell Immersed Boundary Representation for Simulations of Floating Bodies
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)A six degrees of freedom (6DOF) algorithm is implemented in the open-source CFD code REEF3D. The model solves the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. Complex free surface dynamics are modeled with the level set method ... -
A comparative analysis of the fluid-structure interaction method and the constant added mass method for ice-structure collisions
(Journal article, 2016)The constant added mass (CAM) method and the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) method are widely used to simulate ship-ship and ship-ice collisions. In the CAM method, the hydrodynamic effect of the surrounding water is ... -
A comparative case study of Public-Private Partnerships in road infrastructure projects: Spain and Norway
(Master thesis, 2015)Public-Private Partnership scheme in infrastructures is not a new concept that has come up in the last years; this is a strategy that has evolved adapting to the new necessities and requirements of the society. Over the ... -
A Comparative Study on Hospital Construction Cost Between Norway and The United States - Based on case studies
(Master thesis, 2017)Within the construction industry, there have been many attempts to identify the cost factors or to compare the building costs. However, it seems the combination of both has not been applied so much especially in healthcare ... -
A Comparison of Competitive Dialogue and Best Value Procurement
(Chapter, 2018)Competitive Dialogue (CD) and Best Value Procurement (BVP) are two different approaches to early contractor involvement (ECI) in public projects. However, it is not clear which approach is best suited for what kind of ... -
A Comparison of Direct Membrane Filtration and Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor for Municipal Wastewater Treatment in Norway
(Master thesis, 2020)Med et økende fokus på miljø og bærekraft, bør også infrastruktur som avløpsrensing rustes for fremtiden, med vekt på kompakthet, lavt karbonfotavtrykk og potensiale for energigjenvinning. To konsepter som kan vurderes i ... -
A comparison of friction piles bearing capacity based on theoretical and empirical mathematical models
(Master thesis, 2012)This thesis consists of 8 chapters and each chapter is described as follows:Chapter 2: Presents the different types of piles which exist today and their classification.Chapter 3: Presents the different soil parameters we ... -
A Comparison of Railway Load Models for Geotechnical Analysis
(Master thesis, 2018)Bane NOR is responsible for developing the railway network in Norway. In Norway, the Eurocodes are specifying how structural design in general should be conducted. This also applies to the railways. To guide those responsible ... -
A comparison of the energy market in Scandinavia and in Nigeria and the role of framework for Independent Hydropower Producers
(Master thesis, 2020)Hydropower optimization could aid in minimizing resource input for electricity generation and overall system operations cost. This study used the EMPS modelling to analyze the performance of Nigeria’s large hydropower ... -
A Comparison of Theoretical and Measured Pressure Losses Within a Drinking Water Treatment Plant
(Master thesis, 2016)Pressure loss and its effects on the resulting hydraulics within a drinking water treatment plant are extremely important aspects of design and operation. Pressure losses are important to monitor as they are the driving ... -
A comparison of wave generation methods simulating extreme waves in a numerical wave tank
(Chapter, 2017)Extreme wave conditions emanate from the random and instantaneous interaction of waves during storm events. These wave conditions may cause potentially severe damage to ships and offshore oil and gas structures. There are ... -
A Contractor's Experience of a Best Value Approach Project in Norway
(Master thesis, 2018)Most road construction projects in Norway use the Design-Bid-Build delivery method. In the Design-Bid-Build method the project owner goes into contract with a project designer that designs the project, before interested ... -
A cost-effective approach to predict dynamic variation of mesohabitats at the river scale in Norwegian systems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This paper presents a cost-effective approach to predict dynamic variation of mesohabitat classes or hydromorphological units (HMUs) in the context of a peaking scenario. Predicting dynamic mesohabitats has been a challenge ... -
A coupled modeling of design and investment parameters for optimal operation of methane bioreactors: Attainable region concept approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Current practice to design methane bioreactors does not consider all degrees of freedom simultaneously, which raises question of global optimality. This study presents a model-based design framework, which simultaneously ... -
A cross-continent exposition of geohazard risk management strategies
(Master thesis, 2022)Geofarer er blant de største bidragsyterne til verdensomspennende katastrofer som kan gi enorme skadekonsekvenser. Bekymringen i samfunnet for slike farer er økende, ettersom de har ført til en økt trend i økonomiske tap ... -
A DATA-DRIVEN APPROACH TO DETERMINE INPUT SCHEDULES FOR ENERGY SIMULATION OF RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS - A statistical methodology to generate electric internal load and presence of occupancy schedules in a residential building in Milan (Italy)
(Master thesis, 2018)Ensuring that the energy need predicted by energy modelling corresponds to the actual energy need, will be strictly important in the close future with the increase in the number of low-energy buildings and retrofitting ... -
A dataset of wind-driven rain measurements on a low-rise test building in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2007)Semi-empirical models and especially numerical simulation models based on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) are increasingly being used to calculate wind-driven rain (WDR) on building facades. The development, verification ... -
A decision support framework for holistic stormwater management planning
(Master thesis, 2022)Overvann er en økende utfordring i urbane områder som følge av klimaendringer og fortetting. Kombinasjonen av disse faktorene bidrar til at overvannsmengdene overskrider kapasiteten i tradisjonelle rørsystemer. Dette skaper ... -
A Deep Learning Based Approach for Detecting Change of Buildings from Aerial Images
(Master thesis, 2022)Fremveksten i bruken av dyplæringsmetoder for bygning- og endringsdeteksjon har økt jevnt de siste ̊arene. Tilgjengeligheten og kvaliteten til høyoppløselige satellittbilder har tilrettelagt for en rekke muligheter innenfor ... -
