      Lunder, Ingvild (Master thesis, 2022)
      Virkningsgraden beskriver en vannkraftturbins tilstand og ytelse, og det er viktig for både eiere og leverandører at denne kan måles så nøyaktig som mulig. Masteroppgaven omhandler virkningsgradsmålinger for Pelton turbiner ...
    • Virtual carbon and water flows embodied in global fashion trade - a case study of denim products 

      Zhao, Minyi; Zhou, Ya; Meng, Jing; Zheng, Heran; Cai, Yanpeng; Shan, Yuli; Guan, Dabo; Yang, Zhifeng (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The environmental impacts of the fashion industry have been aroused wide concerns. The globalization and fragmentation of the textile and fashion system have led to the uneven distribution of environmental consequences. ...
    • Virvelavløsning fra butte objekter i en kanalstrømning 

      Haga, Jens (Master thesis, 2012)
      I denne hovedoppgaven har slippstrømninger generert av sirkulære sylindre og to typer elliptiske varmeveksler - rør blitt undersøkt. Målet med arbeidet har vært å beskrive virvelavløsningsfenomener på elliptiske varmeveksler ...
    • Viscosity in modified gravity 

      Brevik, Iver Håkon (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      A bulk viscosity is introduced in the formalism of modified gravity. It is shown that, based on a natural scaling law for the viscosity, a simple solution can be found for quantities such as the Hubble parameter and the ...
    • Viscosity-Induced Crossing of the Phantom Barrier 

      Brevik, Iver Håkon (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      We show explicitly, by using astrophysical data plus reasonable assumptions for the bulk viscosity in the cosmic fluid, how the magnitude of this viscosity may be high enough to drive the fluid from its position in the ...
