Compaction of aluminium foil and its effect on oxidation and recycling yield
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)One of the problems when recycling aluminium is its oxidation and consequent metal loss. This is especially critical for the thin sheet/foil materials used for food packaging applications. Compacting the scrap into briquettes ... -
Comparative Analysis of Modulation Techniques for Modular Multilevel Converters in Traction Drives
(Peer reviewed; Chapter, 2018)The spreading of electric vehicles led to a renewed interest for innovative traction drives. In this context, an electric traction drive based on a Modular Multilevel Converter and integrating batteries in each module has ... -
Comparative Analysis of Small-Signal Dynamics in Virtual Synchronous Machines and Frequency-Derivative-Based Inertia Emulation
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2018)This paper presents a comparison of small-signal dynamics for a current controlled Virtual Synchronous Machine (VSM), a voltage controlled VSM and a df/dt-based control strategy for inertia emulation. The comparison is ... -
Comparative analysis of the sound conditions at the neonatal intensive care units of two Norwegian hospitals
(Chapter, 2024)Excessive sound levels of preterm infants may contribute to negative physiological effects. Yet, recommended sound level limits are consistently exceeded at neonatal intensive care units (NICU), both inside and outside of ... -
A comparative assessment of building sustainability schemes in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Various schemes are established to evaluate the sustainability of buildings during their life cycle. These schemes introduce a range of evaluation criteria and indicators and are periodically revised to align with current ... -
Comparative Assessment of the Carbon Footprint of on-site and off-site Wall Element Constructions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Off-site construction is considered as environmentally preferable to on-site due to the controlled environment for planning and production before assembly in the construction site. However, evaluating the actual environmental ... -
A comparative assessment of the development of GHG emission criteria and benchmark values for buildings in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)GHG emission criteria and benchmark values for buildings are being developed internationally to meet climate goals in the Paris agreement. However, there is a distinct lack of harmonisation in approaches making it difficult ... -
A comparative biodistribution study of polymeric and lipid-based nanoparticles
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Biodistribution of nanoencapsulated bioactive compounds is primarily determined by the size, shape, chemical composition and surface properties of the encapsulating nanoparticle, and, thus, less dependent on the physicochemical ... -
A Comparative Evaluation of CO2 and HCFC-22 Residential Air-Conditioning Systems in a Japanese Climate
(SINTEF Rapport;, Research report, 1996) -
Comparative field tests of an electrochromic shading device - thermal and visual comfort
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Electrochromic devices (EC), or Smart Windows, are amongst the most promising technologies to increase users' wellbeing in buildings. A comparative test of EC windows performance was realised in the ZEB Test Cell Laboratory ... -
A Comparative Investigation of Duplex and Super Duplex Stainless Steels Processed through Laser Powder Bed Fusion
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The aim of this paper was to compare duplex (DSS) and super duplex stainless steel processed by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) based on the process parameters and microstructure–nanomechanical property relationships. Each ... -

Comparative study of eutectic Al-Si alloys manufactured by WAAM and casting
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Wire and arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) of metallic materials is expected to become part of the new industrial revolution. The possibilities for complex designs and superior mechanical properties can in many cases replace ... -
Comparative Study of Event Prediction in Power Grids using Supervised Machine Learning Methods
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2020)There is a growing interest in applying machine learning methods on large amounts of data to solve complex problems, such as prediction of events and disturbances in the power system. This paper is a comparative study of ... -
A comparative study of laser-arc hybrid welding with arc welding for fabrication of offshore substructures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Laser-arc hybrid welding (LAHW) is an efficient and promising joining method for offshore structures made from metallic alloys. Under a high-power laser output, a keyhole is formed that efficiently melts a metal and provides ... -
