Comparative analysis of the effect of soiling on solar electricity production in utility-scale solar parks
(Master thesis, 2019)Dust accumulation on solar panels is a significant decreasing factor for the electricity production from utility scale solar power parks. In this master’s thesis, a literature study and an experimental research is conducted ... -
Robotisert oppsamling av gress
(Master thesis, 2019)Nedbøren øker i Norge, og gjør jorden våtere. Selv om tradisjonelle landbruksmaskiner er effektive, gir våt jord gir dem ulemper i gjennomføringen av for eksempel jordpakking. Hovedmålet til prosjektet er å redusere ... -
Styrkerelaterte eigenskapar til to trelimsystem ved ulike temperaturar : eit metodestudie ved bruk av dynamisk mekanisk analyse (DMA)
(Master thesis, 2019)Bruken av limtre og krysslimt tre i byggebransjen har auka betydeleg i seinare tid. Dette har opna opp for nye konstruksjonsmoglegheiter, mykje på grunn av treet si høge styrke i forhold til eigenvekt. Det byggjast stadig ... -
Environmental monitoring with ground-based interferometric radar systems
(PhD Thesis;2019:56, Doctoral thesis, 2019)The need for environmental monitoring is increasing with climate changes and natural resources exploitation, but the monitoring possibilities are also improving with the technological development enabling high spatial and ... -
The influence of carbon additives in microwave assisted pyrolysis and the cost of energy regeneration
(Master thesis, 2019)The carbon concentration in the atmosphere is higher than it has ever been during the last 800 000 years, resulting in 27.5 million climate refugees globally. There is consensus within the international community that the ... -
Extracting movement patterns from geographical trajectory data
(PhD Thesis;2018:96, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Thanks to the recent advent of inexpensive positioning technologies, data about movement of various mobile objects are collected in rapidly growing amounts. Massive repositories of movement data require developing new data ... -
Rapid spectroscopic methods for predicting water-holding capacity in meat
(PhD Thesis;2018:3, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Water-holding capacity (WHC) is one of the most important quality traits in meat, and the main aim of this thesis was to examine the potential for rapid spectroscopic techniques to predict WHC in meat. A secondary aim was ... -
Image analysis in coagulation process control
(PhD thesis;2018:9, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Coagulation-flocculation is a conventional process in drinking water, municipal and industrial wastewater treatment. This stage of wastewater treatment has become popular in Norway due to its superior ability to remove ... -
Developing a robotic thumb with limited backdrivability
(Master thesis, 2018)The goal set in this thesis was to develop a robotic thumb with at least one backdrivable joint with a 15 N minimum grip strength, all within a human hands’ size constraints. Backdrivability is the mechanical principle of ... -

(Master thesis, 2019)I dette studiet har det blitt studert 21 statlige små og mellomstore investeringsprosjekter, som er gjennomført av Statsbygg mellom 2003 og 2016. Studiets intensjon har vært å undersøke om små og mellomstore prosjekterere ... -
Forbedring av tørkeprosessen til kakaobønner fra Sørvest-Kamerun ved bruk av solenergi
(Master thesis, 2019)Oppgaven tar for seg tørking av kakaobønner i Sørvest-Kamerun hvor firmaet SunErgy har bygd off-grid solcelleanlegg til landsbyer. Kakaobønnene blir i dette området i dag tørket ved vedfyring noe som fører til et svinn på ... -
Daily temperature and precipitation variability in Scandinavia in a large ensemble simulation
(Master thesis, 2019)According to the last assessment report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, due to human-induced climate changes, alterations in future temperature and precipitation are expected, and we will have a higher ... -
Methodology for assessing short-term flexibility in demand-side assets
(Master thesis, 2019)Global electricity grids, and especially the distribution grids, encounter new challenges during the transmission to a sustainable energy chain. Decarbonization involves electrification and a massive deployment of variable ... -
Mentoring early-stage entrepreneurial learning processes and team dynamics : a case study of the Young Sustainable Impact entrepreneurship and innovation program
(Master thesis, 2019)Business dynamism has decreased in western economies, and this has been related to a decline in the rate of entrepreneurship. Various entrepreneurship promotion programs are supported by governments and other actors to ... -
Stabilisering av høye trehus ved bruk av massivtresjakter
(Master thesis, 2019)I denne masteroppgaven blir det sett på hvordan plasseringen og utformingen av massivtresjakter påvirker den dynamiske oppførselen til høye trehus. Den dynamiske oppførselen forteller hvordan bygget beveger seg når det ... -
Vurdering av disdrometer som isingsindikator på kraftledninger : sammenlikning av observasjoner og modelldata
(Master thesis, 2019)Atmosfærisk ising på kraftledninger er den enkeltfaktoren som har størst økonomisk konsekvens for investeringskostnadene knyttet til nye luftledninger. I tillegg er store islaster, som kan komme opp i flere hundre kilo per ... -
The effect of Losartan treatment assessed using magnetic resonance imaging of human tumour xenografts
(Master thesis, 2019)This study investigates the possibility of using the angiotensin-II-receptor-blocker (ARB) Losartan to increase oxygenation in tumours. Reduced blood flow in tumours restricts the delivery of oxygen, nutrients and ... -
