Exploring the Use of Technology for Active Aging and Thriving
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The study explores how older adults with limited digital experience become users of tablet computers (iPad) with Internet access, and how the tablet computers become part of their daily life facilitating active aging and ... -
Exploring wait time variations in a prostate cancer patient pathway—A qualitative study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Norwegian health authorities emphasise that all citizens should have equal access to healthcare and implement cancer patient pathways (CPPs) to ensure medical care for all patients within the same time frame and to avoid ... -
An exponential time-differencing method for monotonic relaxation systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)We present first and second-order accurate exponential time differencing methods for a special class of stiff ODEs, denoted as monotonic relaxation ODEs. Some desirable accuracy and robustness properties of our methods are ... -
Exposure to Bioaerosols during Fish Processing on Board Norwegian Fishing Trawlers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Objectives:The main objective was to gain more knowledge on exposure to bioaerosols in the processing area on board fishing trawlers. Methods: Exposure sampling was carried out during the work shifts when processing ... -
Exposure to ultrafine particles in the ferroalloy industry using a logbook method
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: It is difficult to assess workers’ exposure to ultrafine particles (UFP) due to the lack of personal sampling equipment available for this particle fraction. The logbook method has been proposed as a general ... -
Extending the Lin-Kernighan algorithm to improve solutions to VRPs with Time Windows
(Research report, 2009)Helsgaun’s implementation of the Lin-Kernighan algorithm (LKH) is an effective heuristic solver for the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). The report presents an extension of LKH to support time windows, i.e., to a solver ... -
Extracellular vesicles in patients in the acute phase of psychosis and after clinical improvement: an explorative study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are cell-derived structures that transport proteins, lipids and nucleic acids between cells, thereby affecting the phenotype of the recipient cell. As the content of EVs reflects the status of ... -
Extracts of pine bark (Pinus sylvestris) inhibit Cryptosporidium parvum growth in cell culture
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The widespread apicomplexan parasite Cryptosporidium parvum is responsible for severe gastrointestinal disease in humans and animals. The treatment options are limited, and the efficacy of available drugs is low. Bark ... -
Extremum Seeking With Enhanced Convergence Speed for Optimization of Time-Varying Steady-State Behavior of Industrial Motion Stages
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Recently, an extremum-seeking control (ESC) approach has been developed for optimization of generically time-varying steady-state responses of nonlinear systems. A generic filter structure was introduced, the so-called ... -
Extrusion and characterization of high Si/Al ratio ZSM-5 using silica binder
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Biogas upgrading is a key operation for transforming raw biogas into valuable biomethane that can be used as fuel or transported through pipelines. Pressure swing adsorption (PSA) is one possible technique that can be used ... -
Fabrication and testing of a planar microstructured concept module with integrated palladium membranes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)A planar microstructured hydrogen separation module has been fabricated to study the hydrogen permeation through free-standing palladium-based membranes (Pd, PdCu and PdAg) with minimal influence by concentration polarization. ... -
Fabrication of a Silicide Thermoelectric Module Employing Fractional Factorial Design Principles
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Thermoelectric modules can be used in waste heat harvesting, sensing, and cooling applications. Here, we report on the fabrication and performance of a four-leg module based on abundant silicide materials. While previously ... -
Fabrication of an array of silicon microscales for the monitoring of chemical processes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)We present the fabrication and demonstration of a two-dimensional array of scales micromachined in silicon. Each scale consists of a platform suspended by a spring. The mass present on the platform of each scale is measured ... -
Fabrication process parameters significantly affect the perovskite oxygen carriers materials (OCM) performance in chemical looping with oxygen uncoupling (CLOU)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The CLOU performance of the CaTixMn0.9−xMg0.1O3 (CMTM) perovskite-type system was investigated, comparing materials produced at laboratory scale with those made at industrial ton scale. The CLOU and conversion performances ... -
