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. ... -
PDE-constrained optimization : preconditioners and diffuse domain methods
(PhD Thesis;2015:84, Doctoral thesis, 2018-04-30)This thesis is mainly concerned with the efficient numerical solution of optimization problems subject to linear PDE-constraints, with particular focus on robust preconditioners and diffuse domain methods. Associated with ... -
Prediction of spring wheat yield and grain quality with remote VIS-NIR spectroscopy and multivariate data analysis
(PhD Thesis;2012:26, Doctoral thesis, 2012)Along with an increasing population, both globally and locally, demands on agriculture increase. A sustainable increase in cereal yields is particularly focused and in this context, precision agriculture is becoming ... -
Press ‘run’ to improve mathematical expertice (PRIME)
(PhD Thesis;2022:55, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Press Run to Increase Mathematical Expertise (PRIME) investigates the implementation of programming in the mathematics classroom in upper secondary schools in Norway through the lens of designing mathematical programming ... -
Quantitative microbial risk assessment for drinking water : dose-response theory and virus filtration dynamics
(PhD Thesis;2016:58, Doctoral thesis, 2017-03-13)Transmission of waterborne disease through drinking water remains a public health concern, even in developed countries. This is evidenced not only by the occurrence of small and large disease outbreaks in modern water ... -
Quantitative microbial rsk assessment and water quality modelling : on drinking water sources, recreational and recycled waters
(PhD Thesis;2017:77, Doctoral thesis, 2017)Despite various efforts to improve water quality in all pathways, waterborne diseases are still a major public health concern in both developing and developed countries. To address the threat of waterborne diseases through ... -
Raman spectroscopy for in-line food quality characterization
(PhD Thesis;2023:5, Doctoral thesis, 2023)A major challenge in the food industry is to effectively handle massive streams of food raw materials and products of different origin and quality. In-line sensor systems for food analysis can potentially measure and ... -
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 ... -
Resolving snow challenges for increased deployment of photovoltaic systems
(PhD Thesis;2022:77, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Photovoltaic (PV) systems are becoming more competitive due to a cost reduction of the technology and increased electricity prices. As the technology extends to cold climates with lower irradiance, a knowledge gap in how ... -
Row following based navigation systems for agricultural robots
(PhD Thesis;2021:3;, Doctoral thesis, 2021)The main goal of the thesis is to study methods to follow row-like structures in agricultural scenarios by using low-cost hardware components to create an environment-aware robotic system. The objective is not only to ... -
Rural turisme som drivkraft for lokal næringsutvikling
(PhD Thesis;2014:100, Doctoral thesis, 2014)Det overordnede målet for denne studien har vært å øke forståelsen for næringsutvikling i rurale innlandskommuner med utgangspunkt i gårdsbruket. Den historiske næringssammensetningen i rurale områder med primærproduksjon ... -
Scattering and absorption in nano- and microstructured media
(PhD thesis;2020:51, Doctoral thesis, 2020)When electromagnetic radiation interacts with objects of the same wavelength as the radiation, the objects can act as resonators and strong scattering effects appear. The goal of this PhD project has been to understand ... -
