Nanostructured titanium dioxide: fate in the aquatic environment and effects on the marine mussel mytilus edulis
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2011;, Master thesis, 2011)The rapid development of nanotechnology and the corresponding increase in the use of nanoparticles in commercial products have led to concerns about their health risks and environmental impact. As the aquatic systems act ... -
Natural peptides with antioxidant activity from Atlantic cod and Atlantic salmon residual material
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-03)Summary. Water-soluble peptides/proteins with molecular weight below 10 kDa were isolated from residual material of cod (liver, skin, and cod mix i.e. skin, frames, and viscera), and salmon (skin, and salmon mix i.e. skin, ... -
Negative feedback loops leading to nitrate homeostasis and oscillatory nitrate assimilation in plants and fungi.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2011;, Master thesis, 2011)Nitrate is an important nutrient for plants and fungi. For plants it has been shown that cytosolic nitrate levels are under homeostatic control. Here we describe two networks that can obtain robust, i.e. perturbation ... -
New Microwave Technology for the Treatment of Drill Cuttings

Note on the invariant classification of vacuum type D spacetimes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009-12)We illustrate the fact that the class of vacuum type D spacetimes which are I-non-degenerate are invariantly classified by their scalar polynomial curvature invariants. -
On computational linear semi-infinite programming

On high-order perturbative calculations at finite density
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-02)We discuss the prospects of performing high-order perturbative calculations in systems characterized by a vanishing temperature but finite density. In particular, we show that the determination of generic Feynman integrals ... -
On the algebraic classification of pseudo-Riemannian spaces
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-12)We consider arbitrary-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian spaces of signature (k, k + m). We introduce a boost-weight decomposition and define a number of algebraic properties (e.g. the Si- and N-properties) and present a ... -
On the circadian organization of nitrogen and sulphur metabolism in Neurospora crassa
(PhD Thesis UiS;157, Doctoral thesis, 2012-04)The purpose of this thesis was to study the circadian organization of the nitrogen and sulphur metabolism in the filamentous fungi Neurospora crassa. Neurospora is an important model organism used in genetics and circadian ... -
On-shell parameter fixing in the quark-meson model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-02)The quark-meson model is often used as an effective low-energy model for QCD to study the chiral transition at finite temperature T and baryon chemical potential μB. The parameters in the quark-meson model can be found by ... -
Optimization of acid catalyzed transesterification of jatropha and rapeseed oil with 1-butanol
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-08)The acid catalyzed transesterification of rapeseed and jatropha oil with 1-butanol was studied by varying temperature, reaction time, butanol/triglyceride ratio and the amount of sulfuric acid. A full factorial design ... -
Optimization of chemical and mechanical disintegration process of drilling fluids.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2015;, Master thesis, 2015-06)Drilling fluids are essential to conduct any drilling process. The amount of oil-based mud used daily is significant. Additives present in an oil-based mud ensure both unique properties and require proper waste treatment. ... -
Optimization of Wastewater Treatment Plant, SAR Treatment Tananger
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06)The focus of this thesis is optimization of the wastewater treatment plant, SART owned by SAR AS. Based on an evaluation of the present treatment condition, capacity and limitations, performance of the plant has been ... -
Organic flow assurance, pour point depressant development through experimental design
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2012;, Master thesis, 2012-07-03)Flow assurance is of great importance in the oil and gas industry, where the main objective is to provide and secure the transport of the well stream fluid from the reservoir to the process facilities. The main challenges ... -
Organic flow assurance: Asphaltene dispersant/inhibitor formulation development through experimental design
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)The exploitation of hydrocarbon has forced the petroleum production to move closer to extreme climate areas and deep waters such as the Barents Sea. These challenges require effective and safe production, transport and ... -
Paramagnetism shielding in drilling fluid
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2013;, Master thesis, 2013)In drilling operations, drilling fluid containing magnetic materials is used when drilling a well. The materials can significantly shield the Earth’s magnetic field as measured by magnetic sensors inside the drilling ... -
