Unplanned Admissions to Inpatient Psychiatric Treatment and Services Received Prior to Admission
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background Inpatient bed numbers are continually being reduced but are not being replaced with adequate alternatives in primary health care. There is a considerable risk that eventually all inpatient treatment will be ... -
Unraveling Enhanced Activity, Selectivity, and Coke Resistance of Pt–Ni Bimetallic Clusters in Dry Reforming
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)By introducing Pt atoms into the surface of reduced hydrotalcite (HT)-derived nickel (Ni/HT) catalysts by redox reaction, we synthesized an enhanced active and stable Ni-based catalyst for methane dry reforming reaction. ... -
Unraveling the roles of the reductant and free copper ions in LPMO kinetics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are monocopper enzymes that catalyze oxidative depolymerization of industrially relevant crystalline polysaccharides, such as cellulose, in a reaction that depends ... -
Unresolved CFD‐DEM in environmental engineering: submarine slope stability and other applications
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)When installing gravity foundations for offshore structures such as wind power stations or oil platforms, the seabed needs to be excavated for providing enough stability. To minimize the impact on the surrounding fauna ... -
Unscented Kalman Filter Based State and Parameter Estimation in Percussive Drilling Systems
(Chinese Control Conference (CCC);1934-1768, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2019)Down-The-Hole (DTH) percussion tool is recognized for its high average rate of penetration (ROP), when drilling medium hard to very hard rock formations. This ROP which depends on the bit-rock contact conditions at the ... -
Unstructured Voronoi grids conforming to lower-dimensional objects
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)We present a novel mixed-dimensional method for generating unstructured polyhedral grids that conform to prescribed geometric objects in arbitrary dimensions. Two types of conformity are introduced: (i) control-point ... -
An updated short chemical-kinetic nitrogen mechanism for carbon-free combustion applications
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Chemical‐kinetic combustion mechanisms for hydrogen‐oxygen‐nitrogen systems, motivated originally by concerns about NOx emissions during hydrogen burning, have recently acquired renewed interest as a result of the possibility ... -
UPGRADE – Veileder for energiambisiøs oppgradering av yrkesbygg
(SINTEF Notat;11, Research report, 2014)En helhetlig, stegvis gjennomgang av hvordan man bør gå fram for å få til en ambisiøs energioppgradering. Temaer som inngår i veilederen er tilstandsanalyser, mulighetsstudier, kostnadsanalyse, støtteordninger og beskrivelser ... -
Upgrading heritage escape route doors – Mounting of glass, protective boards and sealing lists
(Research report, 2021)Preface. This document has been prepared within Task 3 Escape route doors of Project 4.3 Fire safety measures for dwellings within FRIC - Fire Research and Innovation Centre. It is a continuation of the first part of the ... -
Upgrading Marine Oils from Cod (Gadus morhua) On-Board the Deep-Sea Vessels—From Waste to Value
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Significant amounts of marine raw material are lost on-board the deep-sea vessels due to fast quality degradation. Optimal on-board handling and processing strategies can upgrade these resources from waste to food ingredients ... -
Upgrading of Fire Resistance to Architectural Heritage Escape Route Timber Doors
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Original timber stairwell doors in historic masonry apartment buildings of architectural heritage value can be found in the larger cities of Norway. In Oslo, there are around 4000 such buildings, of which many still hold ... -
Upgrading of urban informal settlements. Evaluation and Review of Upgrading and Poverty Reduction Activities in Three Settlements in Lusaka, Zambia

An upright bottomless vertical cylinder with baffles floating in waves
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Damping of the surge and pitch motions, as well as the first lateral sloshing mode in a rigid free-floating upright circular dock with bilge boxes and open bottom is investigated. Model tests are carried out on a 0.80 m ... -
Upscaled Geocellular Flow Model of Potential Across-and along-Fault Leakage Using Shale Gouge Ratio
(SINTEF Proceedings;7, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)Every CCS project has an inherent risk of leakage. Faults are difficult to characterize because they are structurally complex and limited subsurface field-data is typically available; hence the properties need to be inferred ... -
Uptake and toxicity of methylmethacrylate-based nanoplastic particles in aquatic organisms
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)The uptake and toxicity of 2 poly(methylmethacrylate)-based plastic nanoparticles (PNPs) with different surface chemistries (medium and hydrophobic) was assessed using aquatic organisms selected for their relevance based ... -
Upward and downward two-phase flow of in a pipe: Comparison between experimental data and model predictions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In order to deploy capture and storage (CCS) systems to mitigate climate change, it is crucial to develop reliable models for design and operational considerations. A key element of the system is the interface between ... -
