Wasted GDP in the USA
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-09)Whether or to what extent Gross Domestic Product (GDP) can measure human development is disputed. This article develops a notion of “wasted GDP”, with a case study on the performance of the USA based on analysis of Human ... -
Watching Nature Videos Promotes Physiological Restoration: Evidence From the Modulation of Alpha Waves in Electroencephalography
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-06)Various lines of evidence have shown that nature exposure is beneficial for humans. Despite several empirical findings pointing out to cognitive and emotional positive effects, most of the evidence of these effects are ... -
Water and surfactant flooding at different wettability conditions
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2011;, Master thesis, 2011)In a surfactant flooding of oil reservoirs, surfactant products are added to the injected water to reduce the oil-water interfacial tension (IFT) and thereby mobilize capillary trapped oil. The theory in classic surfactant ... -
Water flooding of Eldfisk reservoir cores
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) and the effect of the aqueous chemistry on the mechanical strength of chalk have been extensively studied over the years. This is simply because the stability of the reservoir system is affected ... -
Water Hammer Induced Vibration of Steel Pipelines Repaired with FRP Composites
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-14)Since the 1990s, there has been an increasing trend to repair corroded or eroded pipelines, conveying oil, gas or water, by using fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. This relatively new repair technique involves ... -
Water induced compaction of chalks with varying non-carbonate content : the effect of Mg2+ and pH of the injected brines
