• Use of digital technology to follow the consequences of a warming Arctic climate 

      Myrmel, Liv Brita Hætta; Gudmestad, Ove Tobias (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      The rapid warming climate is causing the Arctic ice to retreat and the permafrost to melt. These visible manifestations of the ongoing climate change are few of many environmental and societal changes that take place in the Arctic. The acceleration of digitalization and implementation of digital technology bring new opportunities to follow the consequences of the warmer arctic climate, but also ...
    • Utilizing fuel cell technology for Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) 

      Al-Mahadin, Aziz; Mustafa, Mohamad (Peer reviewed; Chapter, 2018-06-11)
      The need for developing environmentally friendly and sustainable energy sources is globally evident. This is due to two main reasons: Fossil fuels will continue to supply energy demands for only a few more decades and the amount of pollution generated due to fossil fuels is exceeding acceptable limits. One very promising clean energy converter is the fuel cell (FC). Fuel cells have the ability to ...

Underground spaces with different thermal, ventilation and lighting environments may cause comfort, health and safety problems. Concrete problems ...
    • The Volcanic Hazards of Jan Mayen Island (North-Atlantic) 

      Gjerløw, Eirik; Höskuldsson, Ármann; Bartolini, Stefania; Biass, Sebastien; Mossoux, Sophie; Gilbert, Jennie S.; Pedersen, Rolf Birger Svarstad; Marti, Joan (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-04)
      Hazard assessment of remote volcanic islands provides many challenges compared to other volcanoes and volcanic fields. Here we present the first systematic volcanic hazard assessment of Jan Mayen Island, a remote island located in the North-Atlantic Ocean and home to the northernmost active subaerial volcano in the world (Beerenberg Volcano), and we discuss some of the challenges and characteristics ...
