Efficient production of sugar monomers from lignocellulose is often hampered by serious bottle-necks in biomass hydrolysis. The present study reveals that ultra-sonication assisted pretreatment following autoclaving, termed ...

Use of solar cells (PV) and solar collectors are key remedies in buildings where a large part of the energy supply should be based on renewable energy. The aim of this work has been to evaluate calculated and measured solar ...

Model-based optimization of placement and trajectories of wells in petroleum reservoirs by the means of reservoir simulation forecasts is computationally demanding due to the high number of simulations typically required ...

The weighted MAX k-CUT problem consists of finding a k-partition of a given weighted undirected graph G(V, E), such that the sum of the weights of the crossing edges is maximized. The problem is of particular interest as ...

Hydrogen is a promising carbon-neutral energy carrier for a future decarbonized energy sector. This work presents process simulation studies of the gas switching reforming (GSR) process for hydrogen production with integrated ...

We investigate the performance increase potential of GPU implementations of local search. In particular, we report on how we managed to incrementally improve the implementation of a local search algorithm to a given GPU ...

The fully implicit method is the most commonly used approach to solve black-oil problems in reservoir simulation. The method requires repeated linearization of large nonlinear systems and produces ill-conditioned linear ...

An Automatic Well Planner (AWP) is used to efficiently adjust pre-determined well paths to honor near-well properties and increase overall production. AWP replicates modern geosteering decision-making where adjustments to ...

Forsknings‐ og utviklingsprosjektet "Bærekraftig internasjonalisering for norske produsenter av verdensledende landbruksteknologi" (COMPACT) tar for seg utfordringer og muligheter ved internasjonal vekst i norske ...
