Combining ICESat-2 photons and Google Earth Satellite images for building height extraction
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Building heights are one of the crucial data for comprehending the functions of urban systems. Employing optical remote sensing imagery, the shadow-based method is one of the most promising methods which have been proposed ... -
Common approaches to find the energy saving potentials for the Norwegian residential buildings: a review study
(Chapter, 2021)Building sector is shown as a huge energy consumer worldwide. Therefore, a thorough understanding of energy performance in buildings is essential to propose and implement sustainable strategies for the future plans; and ... -
Communication in Building Design Management - A Comparative Study of Norway and Germany
(Master thesis, 2016)In contemporary construction, first-rate communication is arguably the one aspect that pervades all others. Without it, architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) teams cannot succeed in realising their objectives. ... -
Compact wooden roofs with smart vapour barrier – Pilot project experiences
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Compact roofs are normally built without organic materials between the vapour barrier and the roof membrane due to moisture safety risks. However, laboratory measurements indicate that organic materials could be used ... -
Compact wooden roofs with smart vapour barriers – effect of wooden joists on drying of built-in moisture
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The application of a smart vapour barrier in compact wood frame roofs has been investigated. The study was performed using a laboratory setup for small roof elements, exposed to a typical Nordic summer climate and a high ... -

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021) -
Comparative evaluation of performances of different conceptualisations of distributed HBV runoff response routines for prediction of hourly streamflow in boreal mountainous catchments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Unidentifiability and equifinality of parameters pose challenges to calibration and prediction by conceptual precipitation-runoff models. Evaluation of prediction performances of parametrical parsimonious and more complex ... -
Comparative Life Cycle Analysis of Timber, Steel and Reinforced Concrete Portal Frames: A Theoretical Study on a Norwegian Industrial Building
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The construction industry is a big contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, which has a negative environmental impact. Several studies have highlighted the possibility of using timber to reduce the environmental impact of ... -
Comparative study of indirect tensile test and uniaxial compression test on asphalt mixtures: Dynamic modulus and stress-strain state
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Dynamic modulus is an essential parameter for the performance characterisation of asphalt materials for performance prediction and pavement design. The Indirect Tensile (IDT) test and the Uniaxial Compression (UC) test are ... -
A Comparative Study of Soft Computing Models for Prediction of Permeability Coefficient of Soil
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Determination of the permeability coefficient (K) of soil is considered as one of the essential steps to assess infiltration, runoff, groundwater, and drainage in the design process of the construction projects. In this ... -
Comparative study of thermal-oxidative aging and salt solution aging on bitumen performance
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021) -
Comparing a fracture mechanics model to the SN-curve approach for jacket-supported offshore wind turbines: challenges and opportunities for lifetime prediction
(Chapter, 2016)Accurate lifetime predictions are needed for support structures of offshore wind turbines to optimize operation and maintenance and to decide about lifetime extension of aging wind farms. A comparison of a facture mechanics ... -
Comparing Canadian and Norwegian moisture indices for building climate adaptation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)To evaluate the suitability of materials and solutions in building envelopes, it is necessary to quantify the relevant climate loads. The critical climate load is typically a combination of multiple parameters, such as ... -
Comparing experimentally measured runoff coefficients with field observations for detention-based roofs
(Master thesis, 2018)Predicted climate changes combined with urbanization increases the performance demand on urban stormwater management structures. The rational method with the runoff coefficient (C) is one of the most commonly used design ... -
