The role of initial state radiation in quenched jets
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Jet quenching in heavy ion collisions and in particular the sub-structure of quenched jets are promising tools for investigating the microscopic processes underlying jet quenching and the background medium's response to ... -
Measuring filter-cake cohesive strength and flowability
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The filter-cake has a critical role in temporarily reducing the permeability of the wellbore to prevent issues such as lost circulation, formation damage, wellbore collapse and differential sticking. The filter-cake's ... -
Mechanical, barrier, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of alginate films: Effect of seaweed powder and plasma-activated water
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The incorporation of natural fillers such as seaweed may potentially enhance the properties of biopolymer films. In this study, we investigated the effect of seaweed powder as a bio-filler in alginate-based films at different ... -
Influence of material factors on the determination of dynamic moduli and associated prediction models for different types of asphalt mixtures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In a Mechanistic-Empirical (ME) pavement design system, the dynamic modulus is used to characterise asphalt mixtures, which are affected by many factors including environmental conditions and material properties. This study ... -
Water Quality Predictions Based on Grey Relation Analysis Enhanced LSTM Algorithms
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)With the growth of industrialization in recent years, the quality of drinking water has been a great concern due to increasing water pollution from industries and industrial farming. Many monitoring stations are constructed ... -
Anaerobic treatment of industrial wastewater with a pilot scale UASB reactor
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-07-13)The focus of this study was to investigate the performance of anaerobic treatment with a UASB pilot reactor for removal of COD in industrial wastewater at ambient temperatures at Grødaland wastewater treatment plant in ... -
Survey of Key Management in Ad Hoc Networks
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2006)The wireless and dynamic nature of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) leaves them more vulnerable to security attacks than their wired counterparts. The nodes act both as routers and as communication end points. This makes ... -
Evaluation of microalgae nutrient removal efficiency from wastewater cultivated in a photobioreactor under non-ideal conditions.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-12-14)The scope of this project is to Study the long-term performance and wastewater nutrients removal efficiency by microalgae in a PBR under no favourable conditions. COD, TN, TP, NH4+-N, NO3--N, PO43--P, TSS and pH values ... -
Molecular biology of modified DNA bases
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-08)The cell has several mechanisms for repairing DNA damages, and it has been widely accepted that the base excision repair (BER) pathway is the main repair mechanism for small non helix distorting damages caused by oxidation. ... -
Spent Coffee Grounds (SCG) Valorization: Applications and Management Practices in the Stavanger Region
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-12)The environmental impact of food waste has been growing in interest among various environmental organizations as well as communities in the last decade. Coffee has been one of the largest consumed drinks worldwide that ... -
Environmental risk assessment of combined effects in aquatic ecotoxicology: A discussion paper
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Environmental regulatory edicts within the EU, such as the regulatory framework for chemicals REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals), the Water Framework Directive (WFD), and the Marine ... -
Numerical analysis of a vessel-shaped offshore fish farm
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)The aquaculture industry is aiming to move fish farms from nearshore areas to open seas because of many attractive advantages in the open water. However, one major challenge is to design the structure to withstand the ... -
On Competition-driven Teaching of Multidisciplinary Engineering Education: Implementation cases at University of Stavanger
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)This article will reflect the experience gained on problem-based learning (PBL) projects implemented in the last six years at University of Stavanger (UiS). The PBL projects were implemented by establishing two ”student-driven” ... -
Preparation and Reactions of Straind gem-Dibromocyclopropanes
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-06-29)Two main objectives drove the present effort. First and foremost, reactions of strained gem-dibromocyclopropanes with MeLi were to be investigated as a continuation of research done by Lars Skattebøl. Secondly, the overcoming ... -
Introducing Randomness into First-Order and Second-Order Deterministic Differential Equations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010)We incorporate randomness into deterministic theories and compare analytically and numerically some well-known stochastic theories: the Liouville process, the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, and a process that is Gaussian and ... -
