A Comparative Study on the Influence of Obstacles on Flame Propagation in Dust and Gas Mixtures. An experimental study of confined and vented scenarios in a 3.6 meter flame acceleration tube
(Master thesis, 2012-06-01)This thesis describes an experimental investigation of flame propagation in a 3.6-meter Flame Acceleration Tube (FAT) with square 0.27m x0.27m cross section. The experiments in the FAT took place at the premises of GexCon ... -
Comparative study on the uniform energy deposition achievable via optimized plasmonic nanoresonator distributions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Plasmonic nanoresonators of core–shell composition and nanorod shape were optimized to tune their absorption cross-section maximum to the central wavelength of a short laser pulse. The number density distribution of randomly ... -
Comparative Visualization Of Longitudinal PET/CT Data For Acute Myeloid Leukemia Treatment Analysis
(Master thesis, 2022-09-01) -
Comparative Visualization of Protein Secondary Structures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-02-15)Background: Protein function is determined by many factors, namely by its constitution, spatial arrangement, and dynamic behavior. Studying these factors helps the biochemists and biologists to better understand the protein ... -
Comparing 17 graph parameters
(Master thesis, 2010-08-02)Many parametrized problems were decided to be FPT or W-hard. However, there is still thousands of problems and parameters for which we do not know yet whether are FPT or W-hard. In this thesis, we provide a tool for extending ... -
Comparing Body Density of Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) to Different Operational Welfare Indicators
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Farmed lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are commonly used as cleaner fish in the salmonid aquaculture industry, but a knowledge gap exists with regards to their body density. Filling this knowledge gap is of importance, as ... -
Comparing density of lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) used in aquaculture to different welfare indicators
(Master thesis, 2021-05-31)Farmed lumpfish are commonly used as cleaner fish in the salmonid aquaculture industry, but a knowledge gap exists with regards to their density. Filling this knowledge gap is of importance, as the lumpfish have no swim ... -
Comparing EPA production and fatty acid profiles of three Phaeodactylum tricornutum strains under western Norwegian climate conditions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-03)Microalgae could provide a sustainable alternative to fish oil as a source for the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). However, growing microalgae on a large-scale ... -
Comparing Maximum Likelihood and Generalized Method of Moments in Short Term Interest Rate Models
(Master thesis, 2016-02-01)In this thesis we will look at some different continuous models for predicting the short term interest rate, and focus on the method of parameter estimation in such models. A particular focus will be placed on the method ... -
Comparing species-temperature relationships of arctic-alpine plants among three altitudinal transects in Svalbard
(Master thesis, 2008)Broad scale data has normally been used to predict vascular plant species responses to global climate change. The aim of this study is to investigate to what extent a high sampling resolution reveals local variations among ... -
Comparing the adsorption of methyl orange and malachite green on similar yet distinct polyamide microplastics: Uncovering hydrogen bond interactions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Microplastics (MPs) and dye pollutants are widespread in aquatic environments. Here, the adsorption characteristics of anionic dye methyl orange (MO) and cationic dye malachite green (MG) on polyamide 6 (PA6) and polyamide ... -
Comparing the effects of solar-related and terrestrial drivers on the northern polar vortex
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Northern polar vortex experiences significant variability during Arctic winter. Solar activity contributes to this variability via solar irradiance and energetic particle precipitation. Recent studies have found that ... -
Comparing the intrinsic dynamics of multiple protein structures using elastic network models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-05)Background: Elastic network models (ENMs) are based on the simple idea that a protein can be described as a set of particles connected by springs, which can then be used to describe its intrinsic flexibility using, for ... -
Comparing the transcriptomes of embryos from domesticated and wild Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) stocks and examining factors that influence heritability of gene expression
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-03-17)Background: Due to selective breeding, domesticated and wild Atlantic salmon are genetically diverged, which raises concerns about farmed escapees having the potential to alter the genetic composition of wild populations ... -
Comparing Three Approaches to the Inducing Source Setting for the Ground Electromagnetic Field Modeling due to Space Weather Events
