Symmetric teleparallel geometries
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In teleparallel gravity and, in particular, in F(T) teleparallel gravity, there is a challenge in determining an appropriate (co-)frame and its corresponding spin connection to describe the geometry. Very often, the ‘proper’ ... -
Symmetry and Equivalence in Teleparallel Gravity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-07)In theories such as teleparallel gravity and its extensions, the frame basis replaces the metric tensor as the primary object of study. A choice of coordinate system, frame basis, and spin-connection must be made to obtain ... -
Symptom burden and self-management in persons with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-01)Purpose: Self-management is crucial for effective COPD management. This study aimed at identifying associations between self-management and sociodemographic characteristics, clinical characteristics, and symptom burden in ... -
Symptomkartlegging ved bruk av ESAS til pasienter i palliativ fase
(Bachelor thesis, 2023)Bakgrunn: Flere og flere pasienter som får en inkurabel sykdom lever lenger med sin sykdom. Den palliative behandlingen står dermed sentralt og er viktig hos mange pasienter. Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS) er ... -
Symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder among first aid providers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-06)Background Every year, large numbers of individuals are present or provide first aid in situations involving out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, injuries, or suicides. Little is known about the impact of providing first aid ... -

Synaptic Vesicle Detection in Microscopy Images using Convolutional Neural Network and Compressed Sensing
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IDE/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06-15)In response to stressful situations, the body activates its sympathetic nervous system with the sudden release of hormones. This increases the presence of adrenaline and noradrenaline which improves muscle strength and ... -
Synergistic Gas Hydrate and Corrosion Inhibition Using Maleic Anhydride: N-Isopropylmethacrylamide Copolymer and Small Thiols
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Kinetic gas hydrate inhibitors (KHIs) are often used in combination with film-forming corrosion inhibitors (CIs) in oilfield production flow lines. However, CIs can be antagonistic to KHI performance. In this study, maleic ... -
Synergy Effect Study of Poly(N-isoacrylamide) with Tetra Butyl Phosphonium Bromide on Methane Hydrate Formation
(Journal article, 2019)Natural gas hydrate plugging is one of the costly and challenging problems for the oil and gas industry, especially for subsea fields. One way to prevent gas hydrate formation at low cost is the use of low-dosage hydrate ... -
The synergy of bicycles and public transport: a systematic literature review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)This study is a review of the existing literature on the topic of bike-transit combination. The aim is two-fold: (i) to identify factors that influence its successful uptake, and (ii) to discuss the potential of the ... -
Synes BOKTRAS å bidra positivt til å styrke lesekulturen i barnehagene? : BOKTRAS gjennom to år i to barnehager sett gjennom de ansattes øyne
(Masteroppgave/UIS-HF-IKS/2008, Master thesis, 2008)I denne avhandlingen har jeg ønsket å ville se på hvordan to barnehager jobber med BOKTRAS- prosjektet gjennom to år, for å se om det er mulig å spore noen endringer som indikerer at dette prosjektet er med på å styrke ... -
Synligjøring av flerkulturelle barn i barnehagen
(Bachelor thesis, 2023)Bacheloroppgaven min tar for seg problemstillingen; «hvordan kan den pedagogiske lederen synliggjøre flerkulturelle barns kulturelle opphav?» For å belyse problemstillingen min valgte jeg å utføre et kvalitativt ... -
Syntese og fotonedbrytningsevaluering av aminoalkoholer og oksazolidiner
(Master thesis, 2023)Synteseforskning på etanolaminer og deres derivater, oksazolidiner, representerer bare en del av den større innsatsen for å bekjempe antibiotikaresistens og utvikle nye strategier for behandling. Antibiotikaresistens er ... -
Synthesis and Antiscaling Evaluation of Novel Hydroxybisphosphonates for Oilfield Applications
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Organophosphorous compounds are still widely used as potential scale inhibitors in the upstream oil and gas industry, particularly in squeeze treatments as they have good adsorption properties on rock and are easily ... -
