Determinants of environmental degradation: Evidenced-based insights from ASEAN economies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)This paper examines the effect of per capita income, trade openness, energy consumption, and financial development on the ASEAN region's environmental degradation. We obtained data from the World Development Indicators ... -
Determinants of lifetime reproduction in female brown bears: early body mass, longevity, and hunting regulations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)In iteroparous mammals, conditions experienced early in life may have long‐lasting effects on lifetime reproductive success. Human‐induced mortality is also an important demographic factor in many populations of large ... -
Determinants of the quality of care relationships in long-term care - A participatory study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background: The quality of the care relationship between a client and a professional is important in long-term care, as most clients depend on support for a lengthy period. The three largest client groups who receive ... -
Determination of biomass fraction for partly renewable solid fuels.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-04-29)Biomass-based waste fuels are used in many industrial applications since combustion of biomass gives no net emissions of carbon dioxide. Some waste fuels, e.g. RDF (refuse derived fuels), contain not only biomass, but also ... -
Determination of fossil fraction of refuse derived fuel by the selective dissolution method in calorific value basis: Development of simplified method.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Determination of net CO2 emissions from combustion of Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) is not straight forward due to the heterogeneous nature of the fuel. The fossil fraction of the fuel is an essential parameter for the ... -
Determination of onset of bubbling and slugging in a fluidized bed using a dual-plane electric capacitance tomography system
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)For a successful application of fluidized beds in chemical reactions and solids circulation, the boundary of regime of operation such as bubbling and slugging regimes, needs to be clearly defined. This study provides a ... -
Determination of particle velocities in pneumatic conveying
(Master thesis, 2015-10-09)The main objective of this investigation was to formulate a technique for particle velocity determination in pneumatic conveying system. Plastic pellets were transported in a pneumatic conveying experimental rig. A large ... -
Determination of the event collision time with the ALICE detector at the LHC
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Particle identification is an important feature of the ALICE detector at the LHC. In particular, for particle identification via the time-of-flight technique, the precise determination of the event collision time represents ... -
Determining acute nurse staffing: A hermeneutic review of an evolving science
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)backgroundCalculating nurse staffing in the acute hospital has become a key issue but solutions appear distant. Community, mental health and areas such as learning disability nursing have attracted less attention and remain ... -
Deterministic flood control using MPC on the Kragerø waterways
(Master thesis, 2015-11-06)The Kragerø Waterways consist of 5 power plants downstream after Lake Toke, Dalsfos is the first of these power plants. As a deterministic flood control of Lake Toke and Dalsfos there has been designed a MPC. The MPC uses ... -
Detonation propagation in stratified reactant layers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)A numerical investigation of detonation propagation in stratified reactant layers is presented in this paper. It is baesed on the reactive Euler equations using a two step chemical kinetics approach. The numerical simulations ... -
Detonations in fuel-oxygen mixtures
(Master thesis, 2015-09-18)A brief literature study was carried out to learn more about detonations, deflagrations, shock waves and critical tube diameters. A comprehensive experimental test rig was assembled based on an earlier test rig. The rig ... -
Detoxifying CO2 Capture Reclaimer Waste by Anaerobic Digestion
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-10-13)The decrease in toxicity of carbon capture reclaimer monoethanolamine (MEA) waste (MEAw) during anaerobic degradation of such waste together with easily degradable organics was investigated. Samples were collected from a ... -
