Anchorage performance of fully-encapsulated rock bolts under pull-and-shear loading
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:48, Doctoral thesis, 2015)This thesis aims to study the anchorage performance of rock bolts under pull-andshear loading conditions. Laboratory tests, an analytical solution and a numerical simulation are included. The research results can be ... -
Automated Lithology Classification Employing Whole Core CT-Scans
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:316, Doctoral thesis, 2021)This thesis evaluates the application of artificial intelligence to detect rock properties from whole core computed tomography (CT) scan images of wells on the Norwegian continental shelf. Whole core CT-scan images provide ... -
Development of Methods for Reservoir Description and Modelling Under Production and Prediction of Future Performance
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:386, Doctoral thesis, 2019) -
Dynamics and glacial history of the Drangajökull ice cap, Northwest Iceland
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:247, Doctoral thesis, 2015)This thesis describes the glacial history, glacier dynamics, sediments and landforms of the Drangajökull ice cap as well as the glacial history and dynamics of the eastern Vestfirðir peninsula in northwest Iceland from ... -
GEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF THE REPPARFJORD TECTONIC WINDOW, NORTHERN NORWAY: Backtracking two billion years of geological history by structural analysis, K–Ar and Re–Os geochronology and carbonate chemostratigraphy
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:165, Doctoral thesis, 2015)This thesis presents the results of a multidisciplinary geological study of the Repparfjord Tectonic Window (RTW) in northern Norway. The study was carried out to refine the understanding of the RTW’s long geological ... -
Mineralogical and textural characterization for increased iron oxide recovery. Exemplified on the Storforshei iron formation
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:309, Doctoral thesis, 2019)Process mineralogy is increasingly becoming an important part of quality control in mining operations, and chemical assays are not sufficient for predicting metallurgical performance of complex ore deposits. Knowledge of ... -
Permian-Triassic Depositional Systems in the Norwegian Sea Areas
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2020:195, Doctoral thesis, 2020)Upper Permian deposits from the eastern margin of the Helgeland Basin, offshore Norway, are known to contain two organic-carbon-rich (OCR) intervals within the Lower Turbidite Unit. These intervals were so far not proven ... -
Properties of waterproof sprayed concrete tunnel linings: A study of EVA-based sprayed membranes for waterproofing of rail and road tunnels in hard rock and cold climate
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:197, Doctoral thesis, 2015)Investigate the long term effects of exposure of the SCL lining to higher ground water pressure, particularly the exposure of the membrane to pressurized water at cracks Investigate the effects of slow deformations ... -
Shock compression and fractures in laboratory rock blasting
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:358, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Rock blasting is one of the most important operations in hard rock engineering works, especially in mining and tunneling. Current rock blasting practices are primarily based on empirical designs, and mechanisms of rock ... -
The contribution of maficultramafic mineral sources to magnetic anomalies
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:210, Doctoral thesis, 2019)The interpretation of magnetic anomalies at all scales relies on the understanding of the petrophysical and rock magnetic properties. The stability of magnetic minerals in the crust depends on the composition and ... -
The magmatic-hydrothermal transition in S-type, peraluminous granites: Examples from Cornwall, UK, and Helgeland, Norway
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:207, Doctoral thesis, 2015)The magmatic-hydrothermal transition is the transition from silica melt to aqueous fluid. This process is fundamental for magmatic-hydrothermal ore deposits, and direct evidence of the process can be observed in fluid ... -
Time-Dependent Deformation of Rock Around a Borehole

Towards understanding the glacial impact on sedimentary basins using numerical methods
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2016:297, Doctoral thesis, 2016)The Cenozoic tectonism and the Pleistocene glaciations had a strong impact on the sedimentary basins and petroleum systems of the Barents Sea. The impact of these processes are often considered together resulting in an ...
