Use of Pulse Oximetry during Resuscitation of 230 Newborns—A Video Analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background: European guidelines recommend the use of pulse oximetry (PO) during newborn resuscitation, especially when there is a need for positive pressure ventilation or supplemental oxygen. The objective was to evaluate ... -
Use of response forecasting in decision making for weather sensitive offshore construction work
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Response forecasting is an emerging technology for supporting decision-making during offshore construction work. The method aims to improve the reliability and efficiency of weather-sensitive operations. This article ... -
The use of sea water tracer as a tool for history matching of the Statfjord Fm simulation model
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)In this study, the Statfjord Fm reservoir simulation model was set up to track injected sea water. The sea water itself thereby forms a tracer in the simulation model. This sea water tracer was included with the intent ... -
The use of simulation to prepare and improve responses to infectious disease outbreaks like COVID-19: practical tips and resources from Norway, Denmark, and the UK
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In this paper, we describe the potential of simulation to improve hospital responses to the COVID-19 crisis. We provide tools which can be used to analyse the current needs of the situation, explain how simulation can help ... -
Use of simulator training to mitigate risks in arctic shipping operations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Over the recent years, ship traffic in the polar areas has increased. There is reason to believe that this traffic, and especially the cruise traffic, will increase further as the ice retracts towards the poles. There is ... -
Use of statistical methods and imperfection databank to determine the buckling strength for imperfect cylinders
(Master thesis, 2022)Buckling for thin metal shells are not an easy failure mode to design structures for. The large variety of geometries, material properties, and uncertainties has med standards and best practice for designing thin metal ... -
