(PhD Thesis;2018:77, Doctoral thesis, 2018)The population of the world is projected to reach almost 10 billion by 2050. To be able to feed everyone, we must increase food production by at least 50%. This must be achieved by a sector already responsible for a quarter ... -
Molecular ferroelectric plastic crystals : computational modeling and discovery
(PhD Thesis;2024:22, Doctoral thesis, 2024)In recent years, ferroelectric molecular crystals, specifically those with globular molecules, have gained interest due to their rapid ferroelectric switching, high Curie temperatures, and multiaxial ferroelectricity. These ... -
Multi-constellation satellite navigation : precise orbit determination and point positioning
(PhD Thesis;2015:24, Doctoral thesis, 2018-04-30)Satellite positioning is evolving rapidly. Thanks to the deployment of new Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), such as Galileo or BeiDou, as well as the modernization programmes for the traditional systems, such ... -
Multiscale modeling of the early visual pathway
(PhD Thesis;2018:40, Doctoral thesis, 2018)The human brain contains billions of neurons connected through synapses, making it a highly complex system that researchers have been trying to understand for centuries. One way of increasing our understanding of the brain ... -
Multiscale vibrational spectroscopy of pollen
(PhD Thesis;2016:10, Doctoral thesis, 2020-11-19)Pollen has a vital role in the reproduction of flowering plants by producing genetically diverse offspring via pollination. Environmental effects have strong influence on reproductive structures of plants, including on ... -
Naturfag for yrkesfagelever : hva teller som kunnskap?
(PhD Thesis;2019:11, Doctoral thesis, 2019)Dette doktorgradsarbeidet søker å utvikle kunnskap og innsikt om undervisnings- og læringsprosesser knyttet til fellesfaget naturfag for yrkesfagelever i videregående skolen i Norge. Den sparsomme forskingen som finnes ... -
New understanding of gas hydrate phenomena and natural inhibitors in crude oil systems through mass spectrometry and machine learning
(PhD thesis;2023:35, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Gas hydrates represent one of the main flow assurance issues in the oil and gas industry as they can cause complete blockage of pipelines and process equipment, forcing shut downs. Previous studies have shown that some ... -
NGS-based rDNA barcoding in fungal species identification and delimitation : limits, opportunities and relation to phenotypic HT FT-IR spectroscopy
(PhD Thesis;2017:28, Doctoral thesis, 2017)The abundance of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) in the yeast and fungal genomes derives from their multigene nature. During the last decade of the XX century, this DNA region has become very popular for the molecular characterization ... -
Open inquiry in science classrooms: exploring and developing teachers' practices in upper secondary school
(PhD Thesis;2014:77, Doctoral thesis, 2016-06-09)The study was part of the research project StudentResearch (2007-2010), with the goal that students were to become knowledge builders in practices that have some common traits with scientific inquiry. The project was ... -
Optimisation of the coagulation process to improve plant availability of phosphorus in wastewater sludge
(PhD Thesis;2016:61, Doctoral thesis, 2016)Coagulation is used for the removal of colloids, particles and phosphates in wastewater treatment. The efficiency and economics of chemical coagulation, one of the most robust wastewater treatment processes, is critically ... -
Optimisation of thermal processing of fresh farmed cod
(PhD Thesis;2011:17, Doctoral thesis, 2011)Heat treatment of cold water species is challenging due to quality changes occurring at low temperatures relative to most other foodstuffs. One of the characteristic challenges is the melting of connective tissue already ... -
Optimisation of wastewater treatment systems with data mining and process modelling
(PhD Thesis;2018:43, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Wastewater treatment facilities serve an important purpose in public sanitation. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) are built at the end of sewerage systems to purify the wastewater before it enters natural water bodies. ... -
