Thermo-piezo-rheological characterization of asphalt concrete
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The linear viscoelastic (LVE) properties of asphalt concrete is investigated in this paper using a controlled-strain triaxial dynamic modulus test over wide frequency, temperature, and confining pressure ranges. The ... -
Microclimate of Air Cavities in Ventilated Roof and Façade Systems in Nordic Climates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Accurate values for the climatic conditions in an air cavity, hereby called the microclimate, are crucial when calculating and simulating the performance of a ventilated roof and façade system. The climatic stress of its ... -
IoT‑based hydrological monitoring of water‑induced landslides: a case study in central Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Water-induced landslides pose a great risk to the society in Norway due to their high frequency and capacity to evolve in destructive debris flows. Hydrological monitoring is a widely employed method to understand the ... -
The Role of Occupants in Buildings’ Energy Performance Gap: Myth or Reality?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Buildings’ expected (projected, simulated) energy use frequently does not match actual observations. This is commonly referred to as the energy performance gap. As such, many factors can contribute to the disagreement ... -
Social Infrastructure supporting Ambient Assisted Living in a Smart Silver City: Literature Review and Research Agenda
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Cities in EU member states are ageing. The increasing number of older urban residents have difficulties with basic activities of daily living due to physical and cognitive functional decline. Therefore, the demand for ... -
Technologies for the Combined Seismic and Energy Upgrading of Existing Buildings
(EUR;, Research report, 2022)To achieve the ambitious target of climate neutrality of the EU set out within the EU Green Deal, a reduction of energy use in the highly energy consuming building sector is critical. To achieve this, the renovation of ... -
Retrofitting of pressurized sand traps in hydropower plants
