Application of Automation in Building Design According to Structural and Circular Economy Principles
(Master thesis, 2024)En stor del av klimagassutslippene som kommer fra bygg- og anleggsindustrien skyldes produksjon og bruk av materialer. På grunn av dette er det et akutt behov for å finne løsninger som kan drastisk redusere disse utslippene ... -
Buffeting induced fatigue damage assessment of long-span bridge decks under uncertain turbulence conditions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Fatigue in wind-sensitive structures is influenced by the mean wind speed and the turbulence characteristics. This study investigates the importance of uncertainty in the turbulence characteristics of buffeting-induced ... -
Digitalised Structural Engineers: Application of computational design for sustainable and efficient structures.
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:465, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Buildings and structures are integral to society, providing shelter, workspaces, and social hubs while symbolising wealth and reflecting culture and technological advancements. From the Industrial Revolution onwards, ... -
An experimental study of effect of printed thickness on the mechanical properties of LPBF produced AlSi10Mg
(Chapter, 2024)Additive manufacturing process allows fabrication of parts with a broad range of sizes with high resolution. This size variation introduces new mechanical properties within the printed component, which creates a significant ... -
Safe pipelines for hydrogen transport
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The hydrogen compatibility of two X65 pipeline steels for transport of hydrogen gas is investigated through microstructural characterization, hydrogen permeation measurements and fracture mechanical testing. The investigated ... -

Identification of optimal accelerometer placement on trains for railway switch wear monitoring via multibody simulation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Accelerometers play a crucial role in the railway industry, especially in track monitoring. Traditionally, they are placed on the railway tracks or often on bridges to monitor the health and condition of the infrastructure. ... -
Understanding and Predicting Extreme Wind Fluctuations on the Hardanger Bridge: Implications for Bridge Monitoring and Safety
(Master thesis, 2024)Mange av dagens og fremtidens broer i Norge er bygget i kupert terreng med uforutsigbare vindforhold. Store variasjoner i vindhastighet kan føre til ulykker for kjøretøy og fotgjengere. Unødvendig stenging av broer kan ha ... -
Analysis Techniques for Symmetries of Multi-Higgs-doublet Potentials
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:395, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Since their introduction more than 50 years ago, multi-Higgs-Doublet Models (NHDM) have become some of the most studied extensions of the Standard Model. In addition to the original motivation of introducing additional ... -
Quantified planar collagen distribution in healthy and degenerative mitral valve: biomechanical and clinical implications
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Degenerative mitral valve disease is a common valvular disease with two arguably distinct phenotypes: fibroelastic deficiency and Barlow’s disease. These phenotypes significantly alter the microstructures of the leaflets, ... -
STAR - Service life modelling
(Research report, 2024)This report provides an overview of service life models and parameters linked to reinforced concrete structures suffering from chloride induced corrosion of the steel reinforcement. All deterioration phases from chloride ... -
