Condition monitoring for early failure detection. Frognerparken pumping station as case study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)A case study has been carried out to investigate how process data from Frognerparken Pumping Station can be used more efficiently to get an early detection of degradation or failures of the pump systems. The technical ... -
Cone penetration data classification by Bayesian inversion with a Hidden Markov model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)This study examines the application of the Hidden Markov model (HMM) to the soil classification based on Cone Penetration Test (CPT) measurements. The HMM is formulated in the Bayesian framework and composed of a Markov ... -
Confinement effect of fibres on the behaviour of lightweight aggregate concrete beams
(COIN Project report;67, Research report, 2015)This study focuses on ductility of lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC) in compression. The major disadvantage of LWAC is the brittleness in compression at the material level compared to normal density concrete. Requirements ... -
Consequences of energy retrofitting for daylight availability in Norwegian apartments based on measurements and simulations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Substituting existing windows for highly insulated glazing systems in Norwegian residential buildings may have a strong impact during the winter season due to the reduction of daylight availability. This paper investigates ... -
Consequences of energy retrofitting on the daylight availability in Norwegian apartments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Energy retrofitting solutions applied in residential building envelopes often consist in adding an insulation layer on the building facade and substituting the old windows with better performing ones. Such measures increase ... -
Consequences of Local Energy Supply in Norway: A case study on the ZEN pilot project Campus Evenstad
(ZEN Report;17, Research report, 2019)Denne rapporten vurderer Campus Evenstad på veien mot ZEN. Hensikten med rapporten er å vurdere hvilke tiltak som er relevante fremover for å realisere energimål knyttet til ZEN, og den skal gi en forståelse for potensial, ... -
Constraints, Stakeholders, and Framing Goals in Energy Master Planning Between Neighborhood and District
(Chapter, 2021)This paper analyzes and contrasts the constraints, stakeholders, and framing goals that must be considered when Energy Master Planning (EMP) is conducted for communities in seven countries. The analysis is based on findings ... -
