The Effect of Climate and Orientation on the Energy Performance of a Prefab House in Norway
(Chapter, 2023)Norway has a wide range of climatic conditions throughout the country. The climate varies from coastal to inland areas. Geographic latitude and longitude, as well as the gulf stream oceanic flow, account for this phenomenon. ... -
The effect of CO2, total ammonia nitrogen and pH on growth of juvenile lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The objective of this study was to examine the effects of CO2, total ammonia nitrogen (TAN: nitrogen bound as either NH3 or NH4+) and pH on the growth and survival of juvenile lumpfish in a two-month growth study. The ... -
Effect of Elevated Hydrogen Partial Pressure on Mixed Culture Homoacetogenesis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)This study aimed to systematically investigate the effect of elevated hydrogen partial pressure on mixed culture homoacetogenesis in the range of 1–25 bar. Seven batch experiments were performed at different initial headspace ... -
The effect of hunting bans on population development in the willow grouse (Lagopus lagopus) in Norway
(Master thesis, 2020)The willow grouse (Lagopus lagopus) is by far the most popular small game species in Norway, and it is hunted annually throughout the country. However, during the last 20 years it has experienced a continuous decline, and ... -
The Effect of Impurities on γ-Alumina Chlorination in a Fluidized Bed Reactor: A CPFD Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Alumina is one of the most widely used materials today, with a total annual production of millions of tonnes of highly pure alumina. A large portion of this is used to make metal aluminum. Apart from that, a growing amount ... -
Effect of Intermittent Aeration in a Hybrid Vertical Anaerobic Biofilm Reactor (HyVAB) for Reject Water Treatment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Water from anaerobic sludge dewatering (reject water that is recycled to the inlet main process treatment) from the Knarrdalstrand municipal wastewater treatment plant in Porsgrunn, Norway, contains 2.4 g/L of total chemical ... -
Effect of latitude and mountain height on the timberline (Betula pubescens ssp. czerpanovii) elevation along the central Scandinavian mountain range
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Previously published isoline maps of Fennoscandian timberlines show that their highest elevations lie in the high mountain areas in central south Norway and from there the limits decrease in all directions. These maps are ... -
Effect of lower extremity functional electrical stimulation pulsed isometric contractions on arm cycling peak oxygen uptake in spinal cord injured individuals
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Objective: To compare peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) between: (i) functional electrical stimulation lower extremity pulsed isometric muscle contractions combined with arm cycling (FES iso hybrid), (ii) functional electrical ... -
Effect of Mechanical Ventilation on Accidental Hydrogen Releases—Large-Scale Experiments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)This paper presents a series of experiments on the effectiveness of existing mechanical ventilation systems during accidental hydrogen releases in confined spaces, such as underground garages. The purpose was to find the ... -
Effect of operating conditions and particle properties on performance of vertical air-lift
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)The effect of the fluidization air flow rate and the transport air velocity on the solids mass flow rate and the pressure drop along the transport pipe was investigated in a vertical air-lift. The use of two different ... -
Effect of particle size on flow behavior in fluidized beds
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The fluidization behaviour depends on particle properties such as particle size, sphericity, density and the properties of the fluidizing agent. In this study, the effects of different particle sizes on fluidization behaviour ... -
Effect of Particulate Disintegration on Biomethane Potential of Particle-Rich Substrates in Batch Anaerobic Reactor
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)An investigation of particle disintegration was carried out using batch anaerobic reactors and a particle-rich substrate from pig manure supernatant. Two types of samples were applied, one high in suspended particles (raw ... -
Effect of photogenerated carrier distribution on performance enhancement of photomultiplication organic photodetectors
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The trap-assisted photomultiplication (PM) organic photodetectors (OPDs) are very attractive for achieving high sensitivity photodetection, with external quantum efficiency (EQE) in excess of 100%. A classic structure of ... -
