Enablers and Barriers for Truck Platooning in Norway: Case Studies on Infrastructure, Organization, Technology and Economics
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:283, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Due to the intrinsic properties of the trucking industry, road freight is predicted to be an early adopter of highly automated vehicles on open roads. As a step towards fully driverless trucks, truck platooning is among ... -
Sikkerhetsindikatorer i bygg- og anleggsbransjen
(Master thesis, 2024)Arbeidstagere i den norske bygg- og anleggsbransjen er blant de mest utsatte for skader og dødsfall på Norske arbeidsplasser. Det er et behov for å få ned denne statistikken, og et av verktøyene bransjen bruker for å styre ... -
Systematic review: Upscaling energy retrofitting to the multi-building level
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Retrofitting the building stock is pivotal to achieving climate neutrality by 2050. Most of the existing research on energy efficiency focuses on new residential buildings. The focus must shift to multi-building retrofits, ... -
Fully nonlinear phase-resolved wave modelling in the Norwegian fjords for floating bridges along the E39 coastal highway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Coastal wave conditions are highly influenced by bathymetry variations and coastlines. The Norwegian fjords present large gradients of bathymetry changes and irregular coastline geometries that make the understanding of ... -
Tunnelbyggetid 2021 - testet i et komplekst tunnelprosjekt
(Master thesis, 2023)I anleggsbransjen har det oppstått usikkerhet, konflikter og til dels tvister omkring byggetiden til samferdselstunneler de siste tiårene. For å redusere uenighetene har entreprenørforeningen for Bygg og Anlegg, sammen med ... -
Hydrodynamic rainfall-runoff modelling for flash floods in small and steep catchments
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:261, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Global warming and climate change lead to more frequent and extreme weather events. These include sudden and intense rainfall and rising temperatures which cause flash floods. In steep terrains, flash floods with high-flow ... -
