Comparison of spar and semi-submersible floating wind turbine concepts with respect to seasickness of the maintenance personnel
(Master thesis, 2021)Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) are remotely located structures that are operating without humans on board. The technicians are expected to be on board from time to time throughout the life cycle of FOWTs for ... -
Comparison of unidirectional and bidirectional airfoils in a tidal stream turbine
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Tidal stream turbines offer an attractive method for stable renewable energy generation. Due to the periodicity of the tidal stream, a tidal stream turbine can be designed to operate in a bidirectional manner, thereby ... -
Comparison of weather data from FINO3 and ERA5 in Wind Farm Installation Campaign Simulations.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-06-30)Weather data are commonly used in the planning phase of an offshore wind farm installation campaign. Knowledge of site-specific weather conditions is of great importance regarding transport and installation as well as ... -
Comparison study of deepwater installation methods
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2014;, Master thesis, 2014-06-16)The combination of deeper offshore field developments and larger, more complex subsea structures results in new requirements and challenges for installation vessels and related deployment systems. The conventional vertical ... -
A comparison study of power performance and extreme load effects of large 10-MW offshore wind turbines
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The utilisation of offshore wind turbines has rapidly increased in the last decade, which has resulted in a steady increase in wind turbine sizes. The global average offshore wind turbine size has increased from 1.5 MW to ... -
Comparison study of selected uncoupled riser concepts in deep water and harsh environment
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2014;, Master thesis, 2014-06-13)Installing deep water risers in harsh environmental conditions even in the icing environment, in the near future seems like inevitable. Especially in the Norwegian Sea, the development of deep water technology requires an ... -
Comparisons study of S-Lay and J-Lay methods for pipeline installation in ultra deep water
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2013;, Master thesis, 2013)The pipeline industry has developed its technical capabilities to enable operations in deeper water. In ultra deepwater developments, the offshore industry has been challenged to solve demanding tasks, to develop new and ... -
Compatibility between API equations and design limits plots for ellipse and circle of plasticity
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-07-01)This project presents a methodology to superimpose the API uniaxial and triaxial limits on the design limits plot. Complications due to a recent change of axis are resolved, producing practical design limits plots that ... -
Compensation claims in pediatric orthopedics in Norway between 2012 and 2018: a nationwide study of 487 patients
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-06)Background and purpose — In Norway all compensation claims based on healthcare services are handled by a government agency (NPE, Norsk Pasientskade Erstatning). We provide an epidemiological overview of claims within ... -

Compensation of overall physical activity in (pre)adolescent girls – the CReActivity project
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)According to the ActivityStat hypothesis more physical activity (PA) in one timespan is compensated by increased sedentary time (ST) in the following timespan and vice versa to maintain an overall stable PA level. Until ... -
A compensation scheme applied on wind turbine blade pitch control for the reduction of non-torque main shaft loads
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)It has been well established that non-torque main shaft loads influence the internal drive train loads. This paper proposes a scheme that compensates for non-torque loads in the blade pitch controller. The compensation ... -
Competence constraints for fire and rescue personnel involved in tunnel fire safety as part of the tunnels risk acceptability
(Chapter, 2020)The Commission Directive 2004/54/EC provides minimum safety requirements for tunnels in the trans-European road network and has been implemented in the Norwegian regulatory framework. The Directive states that the tunnel ... -
Competence Development and Collaborative Climate as Antecedents of Job Performance, Job Commitment and Uncertainty: Validation of a Theoretical Model across Four Hospitals
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-12)Knowledge is lacking regarding how organizational factors are associated with uncertainty in patient treatment. Thus, the aim of the current study was to investigate how competence development and collaborative climate ... -
A competence improvement programme for the systematic observation of frail older patients in homecare: qualitative outcome analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-07)Background The growth of frail older patients with extensive care needs in homecare creates a need for competence development. Improvement programmes are essential to fill this knowledge gap. However, the outcomes of such ... -
Competing ideas of 'natural' in a dam removal controversy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-10)In spite of general support for removal of dam structures within the ecological sciences community, local residents sometimes contest dam removals. This article examines the competing ideas of 'natural' and 'nature' that ... -
Competing risk analysis of Norwegian mortality
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMF/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Survival data analysis is a set of statistical methodologies that is used to model time until a certain event occurs. Competing risks data arise frequently in survival data from medical research in situations when individuals ... -
Competition Between Variable-Supply and Fixed-Supply Currencies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)For one variable–supply currency in isolation, one player’s Cobb–Douglas utility depends on the current supply divided by the initial supply, multiplied by the inverse of the accumulative inflation/deflation. With equal ... -
Competition in a fish auction: The case of Atlantic cod in Northern Norway
