• Baggage dissociation for sustainable air travel: Design study of ground baggage distribution networks 

      Hilfi, Sarah AL; Yu, Hao; Loskot, Pavel (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-16)
      Dissociation of passenger travel from baggage delivery has been proposed as one of the radical innovations in future air travel. This concept is still relatively new and largely unexplored, so there are many issues that need to be resolved. For instance, a complete end-to-end baggage dissociation will require the ground distribution networks to deliver passenger luggage to and from the departing ...
    • Beam based finite element modelling of Herøysund bridge 

      Berg, Patrick Norheim (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-05-15)
      In this thesis the candidate aims to model two finite elements models of the post tensioned concrete Herøysund bridge. First a solid element model is modelled using the documentation from the bridge construction, then a beam element model is modelled using the solid model as a foundation. These models are subjected to a structural analysis that applies boundary conditions, joints, mass, gravity, ...
    • Best Venue to Disseminate Multiphysics Research 

      Khawaja, Hassan (Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2019-12)
      Multiphysics analysis has been developed over the recent past to better represent the behaviour of complex processes by the use of simultaneous modelling of a number of systems. This development is driven by the industrial need to further the understanding of real physical phenomena in order to develop and design safer and more efficient products which are environmentally friendly. Such analyses ...

    • A Bibliometric Analysis of the Logistical Challenges and Methods for Vaccine distribution under the Pandemic 

      Andoh, Eugenia Ama; Yu, Hao (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-08)
      With the emergence and the widespread of the COVID-19 pandemic across the globe, there is an urgent need to effectively control the disease spread through mass vaccination. Several COVID-19 vaccines, e.g., Pfizer/BioNtech and Moderna, etc., have been proven highly effective and have been distributed and administrated in many countries. These vaccines need to be produced in large quantities and ...

    • Bio‐inspired hybrid BFOA‐PSO algorithm‐based reactive power controller in a standalone wind‐diesel power system 

      Wagle, Raju; Sharma, Pawan; Charu, Sharma; Gjengedal, Terje; PRADHAN, CHITTARANJAN (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-01-05)
      With an increase in the penetration of renewable energy sources such as wind into the power systems, the operation and control of voltage/reactive power have become more complicated and challenging than ever. As a result, the reactive power imbalance between reactive power generation and demand instigates a reduction in system voltage stability. To deal with the aforesaid scenarios, automatic voltage ...
    • Blending functions based on trigonometric and polynomial approximations of the Fabius function 

      Olofsen, Hans (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Most simple blending functions are polynomials, while more advanced blending functions are, for example, rational or expo-rational fractions. The Fabius function has the required properties of a blending function, but is a nowhere analytic function and cannot be calculated exactly everywhere on the required domain. We present a new set of trigonometric and polynomial blending functions with the shape ...
    • Blending spline surfaces over polygon mesh and their application to isogeometric analysis 

      Kravetc, Tatiana (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-11)
      Finite elements are allowed to be of a shape suitable for the specific problem. This choice defines thereafter the accuracy of the approximated solution. Moreover, flexible element shapes allow for the construction of an arbitrary domain topology. Polygon meshes are a common representation of the domain that cover any choice of the finite element shape. Being an alternative tool for modeling and ...

    • Boundedness and compactness of a class of Hardy type operators 

      Abylayeva, AAkbota M; Oinarov, Ryskul; Persson, Lars Erik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-13)
      We establish characterizations of both boundedness and of compactness of a general class of fractional integral operators involving the Riemann-Liouville, Hadamard, and Erdelyi-Kober operators. In particular, these results imply new results in the theory of Hardy type inequalities. As applications both new and well-known results are pointed out.
    • Brannprosjektering av automatiske parkeringsanlegg 

      Ajaypal, Powar; Omtveit, Talleiv (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-05-18)
      Automatiske parkeringsanlegg er en innovativ parkeringsløsning som løser plassutfordringene som følge av befolkningsvekst, sentralisering og fortetning, men medfører samtidig nye utfordringer med hensyn til brannsikkerheten. Der en parkeringsplass tidligere var forbeholdt én bil, kan det i denne typen parkeringsanlegg være stablet flere biler i høyden. For rednings- og slokkemannskaper medfører disse ...

    • Brannsikring av ventilasjonskanaler. Fire safety in ventilationducts 

      Aastorp-Tangen, Sigve; Gjendem, Jan Rachid (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-11-17)
      Brannsikring av ventilasjonssystemer har fått svært mye fokus de siste årene, på grunn av uklare retningslinjer for prosjekterende. TEK10 setter kun funksjonskrav for hvordan tekniske installasjoner skal brannsikres, og det er dermed opp til de prosjekterende å sette opp løsninger innenfor lovverket. På bakgrunn av det uklare regelverket ble det nedsatt en gruppe med rådgivere for å utarbeide en ...
    • Bridging Law Application to Fracture of Fiber Concrete Containing Oil Shale Ash 

      Upnere, Sabine; Novakova, Iveta; Jekabsons, Normunds; Krasnikovs, Andrejs; Macanovskis, Arturs (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2023-07-23)
      Concrete is a widely used material in various industries, including hazardous waste management. At the same time, its production creates a significant carbon footprint. Therefore, intensive research is being conducted to create more eco-friendly concrete, for example, partially replacing cement with by-products such as oil shale ash (OSA) or improving properties by adding dispersed fibers such as ...
