Blockchain-based prosumer incentivization for peak mitigation through temporal aggregation and contextual clustering
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Peak mitigation is of interest to power companies as peak periods may require the operator to over provision supply in order to meet the peak demand. Flattening the usage curve can result in cost savings, both for the power ... -
Thermal stability and interactions with sedimentary rocks under typical reservoir conditions of selected pyridines investigated as phase partitioning tracers
(Journal article, 2021)Pyridine, 2-hydroxy-6-methylpyridine, 3-hydroxypyridine, and 4-methoxypyridine are evaluated as potential phase-partitioning oil field tracers. Their stability is tested in a brine for 12 weeks at temperatures between 25 ... -
A Systematic Overview of Blockchain Research
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Blockchain has been receiving growing attention from both academia and practices. This paper aims to investigate the research status of blockchain-related studies and to analyze the development and evolution of this latest ... -
Fatigue Strength Curve for Tubular Joints of Offshore Structures under Dynamic Loading
(Journal article, 2021)Abstract Offshore structures are subjected to dynamic environmental loads (wave and wind loads). A stress-life fatigue strength curve is proposed for tubular joints which are in the splash zone area of offshore jacket ... -
Application of generative design for structural optimization at the conceptual design phase
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Optimization of structural components leads to higher performing designs, by reducing unnecessary cost and increasing the efficient use of material. The structural optimization process is a rigorous iterative time-consuming ... -
Research of the influence of marine residual fuel composition on sedimentation due to incompatibility
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The article shows studies of the problem of active sediment formation during mixing of residual fuels, caused by the manifestation of incompatibility. To preserve the quality and reduce sediment formation during transshipment, ... -
The ARTICONF Approach to Decentralized Car-Sharing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Social media applications are essential for next-generation connectivity. Today, social media are centralized platforms with a single proprietary organization controlling the network and posing critical trust and governance ... -
An interactive sequential-decision benchmark from geosteering
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)During drilling, to maximize future expected production of hydrocarbon resources, the experts commonly adjust the trajectory (geosteer) in response to new insights obtained through real-time measurements. Geosteering ... -
Lateral torsional buckling capacity of corroded steel beams: A parametric study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Thickness reduction due to uniform corrosion increases the tendency of lateral torsional buckling (LTB) of open cross-sections and it reduces the moment capacity of the beam. The effect of the various corrosion cases on ... -
Porous flow with diffuse interfaces
(Chapter, 2021)This chapter presents a model developed by the author, in publications dated from 2002 to 2016, on flow in porous media assuming diffuse interfaces. It contains five sections. Section 1 is an Introduction, tracing the ... -
Adaptive non-conform behaviour in accident investigations in the road based heavy goods transport sector
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)This paper presents findings from a study of 29 accident investigations in the heavy goods transportation sector in Norway. The investigations are performed by the Norwegian Safety Investigation Authority (NSIA). The NSIA ... -
Capacity of Concrete Structures with Corroded Reinforcement and Prestressing Tendons
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The main degradation mechanism for concrete structures is corrosion of the reinforcement and prestressing tendons. Management of structures with such degradation requires detailed understanding of their remaining strength ... -
Artifacts on Magnetic Resonance Imaging from Electronic Identification Enablement in Silicone Gel Implants Are Not Negligible
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Breast implants filled with silicone gel are used worldwide for cosmetic reasons, or breast reconstruction following risk-reducing or therapeutic mastectomy. The importance of identifiable implants is undeniable. A recent ... -
Robust observer-based leader-following consensus for a class of nonlinear multi-agent systems: application to UAV formation control
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)This paper presents the design of a robust observer-based control for a class of nonlinear multi-agent systems. The leader-following consensus problem is solved in order for all the agents to follow the trajectory of a ... -
Combining Computational Fluid Dynamics and Gradient Boosting Regressor for Predicting Force Distribution on Horizontal Axis Wind Turbin
(Journal article, 2021)The blades of the horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) are generally subjected to significant forces resulting from the flow field around the blade. These forces are the main contributor of the flow-induced vibrations that ... -
Complex Analysis the Hard Way: a Measure Theoretical Approach
(Master thesis, 2023)In this thesis we present a sophisticated, non-standard treatment of complex analysis using modern tools from measure theory and advanced analysis. This approach opens the path to deep and powerful results, including the ... -
