Climate change impacts the Arctic sea-ice cover and thickness with a related Arctic Amplification and an increased ocean heat transport towards the Arctic. There has been a profound decline of Arctic winter sea-ice extent, ...

The electrification of road transportation requires a massive investment in charging infrastructure to keep up with the demand for underway charging. A substantial research effort is put into the problem of finding optimal ...

Metallurgical silicon and its alloys are essential in several industries, such as solar energy, automotive, aerospace, and steel production. However, silicon dust, generated during silicon production, processing, and ...

To reduce global warming an energy transition going from fossil fuel to renewable energy is required and energy storage opportunities to store surplus electricity are needed. Hydrogen gas (H2) is an energy carrier and can ...

Silisium og legeringer med silisium er viktige materialer innen forskjellige industrier og brukes blant annet som tilsetningsstoff. I flere typer industri brukes slike legerin- ger i form av pulver, både for enklere transport ...

Breaking waves have been studied for over a century. Still, there is an insufficient understanding of wave breaking due to limited in situ data. The high variability and the energetic environment in the surf zone makes it ...

Maintenance costs constitute a significant portion of the total costs for offshore wind investments. Consequently, a substantial amount of research aims to mitigate these costs. Studies targeting short-term decision-making ...

The work carried out in this thesis is the characterization and investigation of carbon- based nanofluids as a potential engine coolant for a single-cylinder diesel engine. Car- bon black particles could be sufficiently ...
