Weak solutions and convergent numerical schemes of Brenner-Navier-Stokes equations
(Research report, 2015-01-20)Lately, there has been some interest in modifications of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations to include diffusion of mass. In this paper, we investigate possible ways to add mass diffusion to the 1-D Navier-Stokes ... -
Weakening Atlantic Niño-Pacific connection under greenhouse warming
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-08-21)Sea surface temperature variability in the equatorial eastern Atlantic, which is referred to as an Atlantic Niño (Niña) at its warm (cold) phase and peaks in boreal summer, dominates the interannual variability in the ... -
Weakening of Cold Halocline Layer Exposes Sea Ice to Oceanic Heat in the Eastern Arctic Ocean
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)A 15-yr duration record of mooring observations from the eastern (>70°E) Eurasian Basin (EB) of the Arctic Ocean is used to show and quantify the recently increased oceanic heat flux from intermediate-depth (~150–900 m) ... -
Weakening of the Atlantic Niño variability under global warming
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The Atlantic Niño is one of the most important patterns of interannual tropical climate variability, but how climate change will influence this pattern is not well known due to large climate model biases. Here we show that ... -
Weathering of deep-sea hydrothermal sulfide deposits. Stability of heavy metals and implications for future mining activities
(Master thesis, 2016-12-20)During future mining operations on seafloor massive sulfide deposits, sulfidic material will be reworked and relocated at the seafloor, exposing the material to oxic conditions. In an oxic environment sulfidic material ... -
A Web-based Solid Waste Management System for Sierra Leone
(Master thesis, 2018-12-13)The generation of waste is a continuous process as long as human activities are going on in the world. To address the threats that waste poses to life in general, it is important to manage waste properly. Waste management ... -
WEBnm@ v2.0: Web server and services for comparing protein flexibility
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-12-30)Background: Normal mode analysis (NMA) using elastic network models is a reliable and cost-effective computational method to characterise protein flexibility and by extension, their dynamics. Further insight into the ... -
WEBnm@: a web application for normal mode analyses of proteins
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2005-12-30)Background: Normal mode analysis (NMA) has become the method of choice to investigate the slowest motions in macromolecular systems. NMA is especially useful for large biomolecular assemblies, such as transmembrane channels ... -
Webucator 3.0 - Brukerhåndtering og aksesskontroll for DPG 2.0
(Master thesis, 2008-08-18)Oppgaven omhandler brukerhåndtering, sikkerhet og aksesskontroll i Dynamic Presentation Generator og Webucator, som er sentrale systemer for gjennomføringen av fjernundervisningskurs over internett ved Universitetet i Bergen. -
Weichselian vegetation and palaeoenvironment in western Norway and northern Russia. Evidence from pollen analytical investigations
(Doctoral thesis, 2012-06-14)This thesis focuses on the vegetation history and environmental changes in western Norway and northern Russia during the last glacial period (the Weichselian). Pollen grains deposited in lakes and bogs are used as the main ... -
The Weight Distributions of Several Classes of Cyclic Codes From APN Monomials
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-08)Let m ≥ 3 be an odd integer and p be an odd prime. In this paper, a number of classes of three-weight cyclic codes C(1,e) over Fp, which have parity-check polynomial m1(x)me (x), are presented by examining general conditions ... -
The weight spectrum of two families of Reed-Muller codes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We determine the weight spectra of the Reed-Muller codes RM (m− 3, m) for m ≥ 6 and RM (m − 4, m) for m ≥ 8. The technique used is induction on m, using that the sum of two weights in RM (r −1, m−1) is a weight in RM (r, ... -
Weinberg’s 3HDM potential with spontaneous CP violation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We study the potential of Weinberg’s Z2×Z2-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet model. The potential is designed to accommodate CP violation in the scalar sector within a gauge theory, while at the same time allowing for natural ... -
Welfare and efficiency of warm and cold waterfall (low pressure flushing) as delousing treatment of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)Salmonid aquaculture plays an important role in increasing global fish production and the biggest factor constraining its further growth and development in Norway is salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis). Previous projects ... -
Well-partitioned chordal graphs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)We introduce a new subclass of chordal graphs that generalizes the class of split graphs, which we call well-partitioned chordal graphs. A connected graph G is a well-partitioned chordal graph if there exist a partition P ... -
Well-posedness and discretization for a class of models for mixed-dimensional problems with high-dimensional gap
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)In this work, we show the underlying mathematical structure of mixed-dimensional models arising from the composition of graphs and continuous domains. Such models are becoming popular in applications, in particular, to ... -
Well-Posedness for a Dispersive System of the Whitham-Boussinesq Type
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)We regard the Cauchy problem for a particular Whitham--Boussinesq system modeling surface waves of an inviscid incompressible fluid layer. We are interested in well-posedness at a very low level of regularity. We derive ... -
Well-Posedness for a Whitham–Boussinesq System with Surface Tension
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)We regard the Cauchy problem for a particular Whitham–Boussinesq system modelling surface waves of an inviscid incompressible fluid layer. The system can be seen as a weak nonlocal dispersive perturbation of the shallow ... -
Well-posedness Issues for Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations Appearing in the Modeling of Long Water Waves
(Doctoral thesis, 2018-12-18)Modelling of wave motion in a fluid is usually based on classical systems which are obtained by the hypotheses that the flow is irrotational and the bottom is even. In such a context, the influence of vorticity is entirely ... -
Well-posedness of the fully coupled quasi-static thermo-poroelastic equations with nonlinear convective transport
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03)This paper is concerned with the analysis of the quasi-static thermo-poroelastic model. This model is nonlinear and includes thermal effects compared to the classical quasi-static poroelastic model (also known as Biot's ...
