The neurostructural and neurocognitive effects of physical activity: A potential benefit to promote eating disorder recovery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Accumulating evidence suggests that supervised and adapted physical activity provides cognitive benefits for individuals with eating disorders (EDs). The mechanisms underlying the benefits of physical activity are poorly ... -
Neutral meson production and correlation with charged hadrons in pp and Pb-Pb collisions with the ALICE experiment at the LHC
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Among the probes used to investigate the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma, the measurement of the energy loss of high-energy partons can be used to put constraints on energy-loss models and to ultimately access medium ... -
Neutral pion and η meson production at midrapidity in Pb-Pb collisions at √sNN=2.76 TeV
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Neutral pion and η meson production in the transverse momentum range 1 < pT < 20 GeV/c have been measured at midrapidity by the ALICE experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in central and semicentral Pb-Pb collisions ... -
Neutral pion and η meson production in p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Neutral pion and η meson invariant differential yields were measured in non-single diffractive p–Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV with the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC. The analysis combines results from three ... -
Neutral pion production at midrapidity in pp and Pb–Pb collisions at √ sNN TeV
(Journal article, 2014)Invariant yields of neutral pions at midrapidity in the transversemomentum range 0.6 < pT < 12 GeV/cmeasured in Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN = 2.76 TeV are presented for six centrality classes. The pp reference spectrumwas ... -
Never forever. Et eksperimentelt håndverksprosjekt med neverfletting
(Master thesis, 2017)I dette masterprosjektet har jeg utforsket hvordan jeg kan få frem estetiske utrykk med materialet never og teknikken neverfletting, som både speiler tradisjon og viser nyskaping. Utforskingen har jeg gjort gjennom ... -
Never too old. Does age affect strength adaptations to MST?
(Master thesis, 2019)Background: To reduce risk of age-related consequences of strength and muscle atrophy, strength training has been recommended as a feasible and effective strategy. However, there is still lack of research about maximal ... -
A New Approach Based on Balancing Composite Motion Optimization and Deep Neural Networks for Spatial Prediction of Landslides at Tropical Cyclone Areas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Landslides are a significant geological hazard that annually cause extensive damage and loss of life worldwide. Therefore, it is crucial to have reliable prediction models for landslide susceptibility in order to identify ... -
A new Approach for Scaling Up from a Small Cold to a Large Hot Bed for Biomass Conversion in a Bubbling Fluidized Bed Reactor
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Bubbling fluidized beds are simple and attractive means of achieving efficient conversion of biomass if particle segregation and the associated effects are minimized. To improve the knowledge of fluidized bed reactor design, ... -
A New Approach of Hybrid Bee Colony Optimized Neural Computing for Estimation of Soil Compression Coefficient for Housing Construction Project
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)In the design phase of housing projects, predicting the settlement of soil layers beneath the buildings requires the estimation of the coefficient of soil compression. This study proposes a low-cost, fast, and reliable ... -
