(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Real-time monitoring of multiphase fluid flows with distributed fibre optic sensing has the potential to play a major role in industrial flow measurement applications. One such application is the optimization of hydrocarbon ... -
A Survey on Infrastructure-as-Code Solutions for Cloud Development
(Chapter, 2022)Cloud software is increasingly written according to the DevOps paradigm, where use of virtualization and Infrastructure-as-Code is prevalent. This paper surveys the state of the art of IaC cloud development, and proposes ... -
Survival Analysis using Cox Regression on Breast Cancer Data
(Master thesis, 2020-06)In this report, survival data from a german breast cancer study has been analysed using the programming software R. For the 686 female patients participating in the study, the value of eight explanatory variables were ... -
Survival in cold waters - learnings from participation in cold water exercises - a regulatory perspective related to the Norwegian offshore industry
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Participation in exercises lead by the University of Stavanger, the SARex 1 in 2016 and SARex 2 in 2017, provided valuable lessons related to survival in a cold maritime environment. The scenario of the exercises was a ... -
Survival through coping strategies for resilience following a ship accident in polar waters
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)On 19 June 1989, the cruise liner Maksim Gorkiy hit an ice floe southwest of Svalbard. The passengers and parts of her crew abandoned the ship. In a massive rescue operation 953 crew and passengers were rescued, in addition ... -
Sustainability-based development of local food service in a hypermarket context: A case study in Finland
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)Food retailing is one of the most diverse and dynamic sectors in developed societies, offering a seemingly increasing range of food and services to consumers. Food retailers have recently started taking sustainable initiatives ... -
Sustainability-based multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) for industrial asset assessment: A case study on midlife alternatives for high voltage circuit breakers
(Master thesis, 2021)Maintenance management has over the years evolved from a narrow perspective to a wider and strategic dimension called Physical Asset Management (PAM). PAM in a modern context includes elements of strategy, economy, risk ... -
Sustainable design of reinforced concrete slab bridges using CO2 emission optimization.
(Master thesis, 2022)Det har i det siste blitt mer fokus på miljø og bærekraft ved prosjektering av bygge- og anleggsprosjekter. I den siste utgaven av håndbok N400 for bruprosjektering, som ble utgitt januar 2022, er det stilt et nytt krav ... -
Sustainable industry and supply chain - what to teach
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)How to teach students about development and sustainable operation of companies and supply chain are a complex task with several partly conflicting issues. Entrepreneurship business models are more different than sustainable ... -
