Air leakage paths in buildings: Typical locations and implications for the air change rate
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The harsh Norwegian climate requires buildings designed to high standards. An airtight building envelope is crucial to achieve an energy efficient building and to avoid moisture problems. Results from the SINTEF Building ... -
An experimental investigation on the flow resistance over a porous gravel-bed surface and its non-porous counterpart
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)This paper presents preliminary results from laboratory experiments which were specifically designed to determine the flow resistance over a water-worked gravel-bed and its impermeable counterpart (cast-bed). The technique ... -
Characteristics of failure mass and safety factor during rainfall of an unsaturated slope
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Water is an important factor triggering destabilization of soil masses in slopes, particular in unsaturated condition. Rainfall and snow melting are some of the main sources of natural water which frequently induce unsaturated ... -
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 ... -
Development of a method for suspended sediment transport monitoring by means of ADCP measurements
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Monitoring stations in rivers and water courses are an important mean to obtain critical data about the different variables that play a role in the hydrodynamics and ecological processes. Measuring suspended sediment ... -
Evaluation of an acoustic Doppler technique for bed-load transport measurements in sand-bed Rivers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The bottom tracking (BT) feature of the acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCP) have emerged as a promising technique in evaluating the bed load. Strong statistical correlations are reported between the ADCP BT velocity ... -
Experiences with CLT Construction in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The use of cross-laminated timber (CLT) elements in buildings is an innovative and upcoming construction method. In Norway, due to its eco-friendly potential, more widespread use of the method is expected despite limited ... -
Experiences with external drainage systems from compact roofs in Norwegian climates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)To reduce loads on urban drainage systems and facilitate local infiltration of stormwater, it is desired to lead runoff water from roofs through external drains and into the local soil. However, in cold climates, situations ... -
Hydraulic physical model production with Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) manufacturing techniques
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Physical models are a well-accepted tool in hydraulic engineering, allowing for the detailed characterisation of flow processes and the validation of structure designs with complex boundary conditions. The methods used to ... -
Numerical modelling of bank failures during reservoir draw-down
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Numerical algorithms are presented for modeling bank failures during reservoir flushing. The algorithms are based on geotechnical theory and the limit equilibrium approach to find the location and the depth of the slides. ... -
Overheating risk of a typical Norwegian residential building retrofitted to higher energy standards under future climate conditions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Heat waves had attacked Norway in 2018 and 2019. Residents in Norway experienced a very uncomfortable indoor environment in the summer of 2018 and 2019. Few publications on the overheating risk of a typical Norwegian ... -
Solutions for retrofitting existing, wooden houses in cold climates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Upgrading existing one-family houses to higher energy standards can be a challenge for owners, among others, due to the unclear status of technical regulations in the case of retrofitting at the national level. Retrofitting ... -
System model for spatial mapping of anthropogenic sinkholes and subsidence basins in mining areas applying 2D laser scanner technique
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The model of a remote measurement system suitable for use on mobile unmanned aerial platforms is discussed in order to provide data for mapping spatial parameters of anthropogenic landscape forms, mainly outcrops, sinkholes, ... -
Towards an establishment of a rating curve for suspended sediment transport by means of ADCP measurements
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)This study presents a series of acoustic current Doppler profiler (ADCP) measurements, which are converted into suspended load concentrations (SSC). Depending on the particle size distribution (PSD), the sound backscatter ...
