Petroleum dependence in developing countries with an emphasis on Nepal and potential keys
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The use of petroleum as a leading source across the globe accounts for overall energy demand. However, despite what may appear to be a declining contribution of petroleum to the world's energy supply, overall consumption ... -
Petroleum Sector-Driven Roadmap for Future Hydrogen Economy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In the climate change mitigation context based on the blue hydrogen concept, a narrative frame is presented in this paper to build the argument for solving the energy trilemma, which is the possibility of job loss and ... -
PFGE og spatyping av meticillin resistente Staphylococcus aureus
(Master thesis, 2007)Pulsfeltgelelektroforese (PFGE) er den mest vanlige typingsmetoden ved epidemiologiske undersøkelser av meticillin resistente Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Pulsfelttyping er også benyttet i denne studien som innbefattet ... -
Phase Transition in Rapid Depressurization of Liquefied Gases
(Master thesis, 2023)This thesis investigates the phase transition during rapid depressurization of liquefied gases, a crucial research field for industries like LPG storage and transportation, gas separation processes, and oil and gas production. ... -
PhD revisited: Formative assessment of writing in English: A school- based study of perceptions, practices and transformations
(Chapter, 2019)This chapter reports from a doctoral study (Burner, 2016a) that explored teacher and student perceptions and practices of formative assessment (FA) in English writing classes. Four English teachers and their students (N=100) ... -
Phenomenological pedagogy in higher education of mental health workers: an example from Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)This article describes the use of phenomenological pedagogy in the higher education of mental health workers. The mental health field is an immensely complex professional field. To create access, the conventional education ... -
A phenomenology of intra-play for sustainability research within heritage landscapes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In this article, we explore a phenomenology of intra-play for sustainability research, integral to the processes of transforming both cultural and natural heritage landscapes. Such processes are studied as active - always ... -
Philosophical Practice as Didactical Framework for Conferences
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)In this article a didactical framework for conferences is presented, which is based on methodological key-concepts of philosophical practice. This framework is outlined in a more manual-like style and illustrated in terms ... -
Philosophising towards Wisdom as Nurturing the Tree of life in us
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In this essay the author poses the hypothesis that the metaphor “to philosophise is to nurture the Tree of life in us” is a better metaphor than “to philosophise is to cease living” when it comes to conceptualizing what ... -
Photoactive decontamination and reuse of face masks
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led to global shortages in disposable respirators. Increasing the recycling rate of masks is a direct, low-cost strategy to mitigate COVID-19 transmission. Photoactive ... -
Photocatalytic degradation of biochar modified nano composites
(Master thesis, 2023)Contamination of surface water and groundwater from industrial discharges is a persistent environmental issue. In recent years, the development of solar photochemical approaches utilizing catalysts such as TiO2, ZnO, and ... -
Photodynamic therapy review: Principles, photosensitizers, applications, and future directions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a minimally invasive therapeutic modality that has gained great attention in the past years as a new therapy for cancer treatment. PDT uses photosensitizers that, after being excited by light ... -
Photon Absorption Enhancement of TiO2 Nanotube Arrays Decorated with Aluminum Nanoparticles
(Master thesis, 2017)In this thesis, well-aligned TiO2 nanotubes (TNTs) decorated with aluminum nanoparticles have been fabricated by electrochemical anodization and subsequently magnetron sputtering technique. UV-vis spectroscopy analysis ... -
Photoproduction of heavy vector mesons in ultra-peripheral Pb–Pb collisions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Ultra-peripheral Pb-Pb collisions, in which the two nuclei pass close to each other, but at an impact parameter greater than the sum of their radii, provide information about the initial state of nuclei. In particular, ... -
