Estimating the Impact of Incidents on Process Delay
(International Conference on Process Mining (ICPM);2019, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2019)Process mining reveals how processes in organisations are actually performed and pinpoints deviations from the desired process execution. Process delay is one type of deviation that can be detected. Specific activities may ... -
Evaluating the effect of mineralogy and mechanical stability of recycled excavation materials by Los Angeles and micro-Deval test
(Chapter, 2021)This paper presents the findings of the mechanical performance of recycled excavation materials (REM). The aim was to document the stable performance of REM and to suggest its suitability for unbound applications. Test ... -
Excavated rock materials from tunnels for sprayed concrete
(Chapter, 2017)Sand extracted from natural resources is widely used in concrete production nowadays. The increase in demand for concrete production has resulted in shortage of natural sand resources, especially in terms of suitable ... -
Experimental and Numerical Investigation of One-Dimensional Infiltration into Unsaturated Soil
(Lecture Notes in Civil Engineering;1, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2021)Infiltration characteristics of an unsaturated soil are of interest in both seepage and stability analyses and should be evaluated carefully. In this study, a new large-scale one-dimensional infiltration column test setup ... -
From TEK17 to ZEB-O – A case study for a residential building in northern Norway
(SINTEF Proceedings;5, Chapter; Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2020)With a strong focus on reducing emissions from the building sector, it is important that new buildings can compensate for emissions caused during their operation by on-site renewable electricity generation. In academia, ... -
