Implementing fish cell line assays to study functional feed ingredients.
(Master thesis, 2023)There is an increase in demand for fish and aquaculture around the world. When the demand increase challenges arise such as sustainability, welfare and cost. There have been raised concerns due to the feed the farmed ... -
PAH mixture toxicity in early Zebrafish developement
(Master thesis, 2023)Zebrafish is a vertebrate model largely used in ecotoxicology to unveil and predict the effects of hazardous substances that are present in the aquatic environment. However, more research is needed on developmental adverse ... -
Review of environmental impact assessment methods and environmental assessment of high fly ash content concrete
(Master thesis, 2023)The construction industry is one of the main sources of pollution in the world with concrete and cement production accounting for at least 8% of the global greenhouse gas emissions. The recent increase in demand for ... -
Prediksjon av trykk i brønner under boreoperasjoner ved bruk av maskinlæringsteknikker
(Master thesis, 2023)Denne avhandlingen undersøker bruken av maskinlæring (ML)-algoritmer for prediksjon av trykkstigning og trykksenkning under boring i olje- og gassektoren. Disse trykkene er avgjørende for å opprettholde brønnstabilitet og ... -
Rate of Penetration (ROP) Optimization through Data-Driven Approach
(Master thesis, 2023)One method to lower cost and Non-Productive Time (NPT) in drilling wells is to achieve the highest rate of penetration (ROP). ROP is influenced by a variety of factors, including tooth attrition and hole cleaning. Three ... -
