Cane toads beneath bird rookeries: utilization of a natural disturbance by an invasive species
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Many invasive species exploit anthropogenically disturbed habitats, but most of those taxa evolved long before humans. Presumably, then, an ability to use natural (non-anthropogenic) disturbances pre-adapted invaders to a ... -
Ecological implications from spatial patterns in human-caused brown bear mortality
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Humans are important agents of wildlife mortality, and understanding such mortality is paramount for effective population management and conservation. However, the spatial mechanisms behind wildlife mortality are often ... -
Energy and Economic Analysis of Improved Absorption Configurations for CO2 Capture
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The shortcoming of amine-based CO2 absorption technology is the large heat demand for desorption and it requires huge capital investment. Thus, it is expedient to comprehensively and critically analyse alternative process ... -
Euler-Granular Approach for Modelling of Dilute Phase Pneumatic Conveying in a Vertical Pipe
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In the present study, vertically upward dilute phase pneumatic conveying flow was predicted using Euler - Granular method. Three dimensional computational fluid dynamics simulations were carried out for an 8 m long and ... -
Evaluating flood exposure for properties in urban areas using a multivariate modelling technique
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Urban flooding caused by heavy rainfall is expected to increase in the future. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the variables characterizing the placement of a house, which seem to have an impact when it ... -
Numerical modeling of the calcination process in a cement kiln system
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The calcium carbonate decomposition into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide is a key process step in a cement kiln. The reaction requires thermal energy input, and pulverized coal is the fuel typically used for this purpose ... -
Seasonal Variations in the Use of Profundal Habitat among Freshwater Fishes in Lake Norsjø, Southern Norway, and Subsequent Effects on Fish Mercury Concentrations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)This study is based on monthly sampling of fish from grates mounted at an industrial water intake, located at a depth of 50 m in Lake Norsjø (Southern Norway) during the year 2014, to investigate seasonal variations in the ... -
Surface tension of alkanolamine solutions: an experimentally based review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017) -
The Activator Mechanism of Piperazine in Aqueous Methyldiethanolamine Solutions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Piperazine (PZ) is added to aqueous methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) solutions to achieve a greater CO2 absorption in CO2 capture technology. It is referred to as “activated MDEA solutions” in the industry. However, does PZ ... -
The Organizer Dilemma: Outcomes from a Collaboration Exercise
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)In crisis management, cross-sector collaboration exercises are perceived as improving preparedness and develop team-integration efforts. However, studies show that exercises may tend to produce results with limited learning ... -
Work Placement in Higher Education – Bridging the Gap between Theory and Practice
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)During the engineering education, the focus is on theoretical knowledge and less on the practical competence to be a professional engineer. To lead higher education into the future, it is critical to develop models and ...
