Import demand under price and exchange-rate uncertainties: The case of U.S. Atlantic salmon imports
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-05)This study investigates the impacts of price and exchange rate volatilities on Atlantic salmon imports in the U.S. market. We first derive an extended Rotterdam demand model, revealing how risk factors affect import demand ... -
Importance analysis of assumptions in QRAs for oil and gas industry
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IØRP/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)A quantitative risk analysis (QRA) should provide a broad, informative and balanced picture of risk, in order to support decisions. To achieve this, a proper treatment of uncertainty is a prerequisite. Most approaches to ... -
The Importance of Embodiment and Agency in Parents’ Positive Attitudes Towards Shared Reading with Their Children
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Parents’ attitudes are an important indicator of whether and how parents engage in shared book reading (SBR) at home. This study analysed Norwegian parents’ attitudes towards reading books with their children aged between ... -
Importance of endocrine treatment adherence and persistence in breast cancer survivorship: a systematic review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Purpose Adjuvant endocrine treatment is essential for treating luminal subtypes of breast cancer, which constitute 75% of all breast malignancies. However, the detrimental side effects of treatment make it difficult for ... -

The importance of Organizational and Behavioral trust in order to prepare for Change Readiness
(Masteroppgave/UIS-HH/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-07-09)I et samfunn hvor organisasjoner står i mer eller mindre stadig endring holder det ikke å fokusere på enkeltinitiativer i isolasjon. Organisasjoner har behov for å bygge kontinuerlig endringsberedskap – en tilstand hvor ... -
The Importance of School Leadership Support when Working with Students with Smith-Magenis Syndrome–A Q Methodology Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-02)Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS) is a rare genetic syndrome. Students with SMS have a neurobehavioural phenotype which has been characterised as challenging for both parents and teachers. Challenging behaviour often has a ... -
The importance of sensorial and spatial aspects in family reading at home: Insights from a national survey in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Purpose The study investigated the relationships between spatial, multisensorial, and structural factors in family reading routines. Materials 1001 survey responses and 926 open-ended answers of parents of 3- to ... -
The importance of shared meaning-making for sustainable knowledge translation and health literacy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The aim of the present paper is to describe and discuss how recent theories about translation, bridging medical and humanistic understandings of knowledge translation, in the medical humanities can bring about a new ... -
The importance of technology for young visitors at heritage sites
(Masteroppgave/UIS-SV-NHS/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-08-31)This study seeks to describe the topic of visitor experience at heritage sites by investigating how different on-site factors are being perceived by the visitors. As a replication and extension of a similar study carried ... -
Importance Sampling-based Transport Map Hamiltonian Monte Carlo for Bayesian Hierarchical Models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-06)We propose an importance sampling (IS)-based transport map Hamiltonian Monte Carlo procedure for performing a Bayesian analysis in nonlinear high-dimensional hierarchical models. Using IS techniques to construct a transport ... -
Improve and optimize the management of Diving Support Vessel (DSV) during design, construction, and operation.
(Master thesis, 2014-06)This thesis mainly focuses on the design and operational issues of a saturation diving support vessel (DSV). First, make the right investment decisions from the market survey of the saturation diving operation and the ... -

(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-12-15)The impact of the permeability on ultra-tight porous media influences flow behaviour inside the media. The unconventional reservoir gas permeability significantly impacts rock property estimation crucial to unconventional ... -
Improved automatic testing of events on robot-path measurements used in robots
(Master thesis, 2023)This master’s thesis investigates the activation time of electrical signals along a robot’s path and explores the potential impact of calculation errors in robot position and speed. The study emphasizes the need for reliable ... -
Improved background subtraction and a fresh look at jet sub-structure in JEWEL
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Interactions of hard partons in the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) created with relativistic heavy ion collisions lead to characteristic modifications of the internal structure of reconstructed jets. A large part of the observed ... -
An improved delay and state observer for SISO LTI systems withknown delay lower bound
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)It is known that the presence of delays hinders the performance achievable by a feedback control system, and it can even lead to closed-loop instability if not considered during the design. For this reason, predictors are ... -
Improved delayed detached eddy simulations of flow past an autonomous underwater helicopter
