Sound signals to improve evacuation in road tunnels
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Although visual signage is the most common means of evacuation support in road tunnel emergencies, these can be of little help when there is dense smoke product of a fire. In such cases, auditory messages can lead evacuees ... -
Membrane filtration of coloured surface water. A Norwegian survey
(SINTEF;2021:01076, Research report, 2021)Today around 160 small and medium-sized waterworks in Norway are using membranes for treatment of raw water with high content of natural organic material (NOM). Most of the membrane-based waterworks use nanofiltration (NF) ... -
Impact of super absorbent polymers on early age behavior of high performance concrete walls
(RILEM Bookseries;33, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)The prediction of the early age behavior of cementitious materials is a difficult task, because many of the material properties are very sensitive to curing conditions as it is the case for High Performance Concrete (HPC), ... -
