Optimizing multiple beam interferometry in the surface forces apparatus: Novel optics, reflection mode modeling, metal layer thicknesses, birefringence, and rotation of anisotropic layers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Multiple beam interferometry (MBI) evolved as a powerful tool for the simultaneous evaluation of thin film thicknesses and refractive indices in Surface Forces Apparatus (SFA) measurements. However, analysis has relied on ... -
Optimizing Order to Minimize Low-Pass Filter Lag
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)This paper develops a tool kit for designing low-pass filters to exhibit the smallest possible phase drop. Based solely on the stopband requirements, it is thus possible to find the best order for a filter to be employed ... -
Optimizing Power and Energy Efficiency in Cloud Computing
(Chapter, 2019)With the exponential growth in cloud computing data centers, power consumption due to the use of physical and virtual machines is becoming a challenge. The amount of power consumed by these systems is increasing day by ... -
Optimizing Road Gradients Regarding Earthwork Cost, Fuel Cost, and Tank-to-Wheel Emissions
(Journal article, 2020)Emissions reduction has emerged as one of the principal targets in the planning and designing of road alignment today, and intelligent design methods can help optimize road alignment as a response toward more sustainable ... -
Optimizing size selectivity and catch patterns for hake (Merluccius merluccius) and blue whiting (Micromesistius poutassou) by combining square mesh panel and codend designs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Gear modifications in fisheries are usually implemented to obtain catch patterns that meet management objectives. In the Basque bottom trawl fishery, gear regulations include the use of a square mesh panel (SMP) placed at ... -
Optimizing Structural and Mechanical Properties of Coiled Carbon Nanotubes with NSGA-II and Reactive Molecular Dynamics Simulation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Coiled carbon nanotubes (CCNTs) have increasingly become a vital factor in the new generation of nanodevices and energy-absorbing materials due to their outstanding properties. Here, the multiobjective optimization of CCNTs ... -
Optimizing surge tank layout for highly flexible hydropower
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)This article considers high-head hydropower schemes and pumped storage schemes that usually are considered as flexible power plants. Surge tanks are the key structural element in the hydropower scheme for flexible operation ... -
Optimizing the Capacity of Thermal Energy Storage in Industrial Clusters
(Chapter, 2020)A key factor for energy-efficient industrial clusters is the recovery of waste heat. To this end, thermal energy storage (TES) is an appealing technology that facilitates dynamic heat integration between supplier and ... -
Optimizing the configuration of a façade module for office buildings by means of integrated thermal and lighting simulations in a total energy perspective
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)The building enclosure plays a relevant role in the management of the energy flows in buildings and in the exploitation of solar energy at a building scale. An optimized configuration of the façade can contribute to reduce ... -
Optimizing the performance of non-fading and fading networks using CSMA with joint transmitter and receiver sensing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)We consider a mobile ad hoc network where packets belonging to specific transmitters arrive randomly in space and time according to a 3-D Poisson point process, and are upon arrival transmitted to their intended destinations ... -
Optimizing the shape anisotropy of gold nanoparticles for enhanced light harvesting and photocatalytic applications

Optimizing the Wood Value Chain in Northern Norway Taking Into Account National and Regional Economic Trade-Offs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)As a consequence of past decades of extensive afforestation in Norway, mature forest volumes are increasing. National forestry politics call for sustainable and efficient resource usage and for increased regional processing. ... -
Optimum scavenger concentrations for sonochemical nanoparticle synthesis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Maintaining nanoparticle properties when scaling up a chemical synthesis is challenging due to the complex interplay between reducing agents and precursors. A sonochemical synthesis route does not require the addition of ... -
Optimum solvent concentration to lower energy demands for CO2 capture in refinery cases
(Journal article, 2022)An open-access novel low-energy solvent HS-3 has been proposed and verified in the lab scale for post-combustion CO2 capture. The HS-3 solvent consists of a tertiary amine with a strong bicarbonate former and a primary ... -
OptiqueVQS: a Visual Query System over Ontologies for Industry
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)An important application of semantic technologies in industry has been the formalisation of information models using OWL~2 ontologies and the use of RDF for storing and exchanging application data. Moreover, legacy data ... -
Oral Assessment and Grade Integrity: A Case Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)The construct of "grade integrity" refers to the degree to which awarded grades accurately represent the breadth and depth of academic achievement (Sadler, 2009b). This case study examines issues of grade integrity at ... -
