31P solid-state NMR on skeletal muscle of wild and farmed Atlantic salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Over the past 50 years, 31P NMR has proven a powerful tool for obtaining information on cellular biochemistry. Here we use this technique for the first time to study intracellular phosphorous metabolites in skeletal muscle ... -
A Common Risk Classification Concept for Safety Related Gas Leaks and Fugitive Emissions?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Gas leaks in the oil and gas industry represent a safety risk as they, if ignited, may result in severe fires and/or explosions. Unignited, they have environmental impacts. This is particularly the case for methane leaks ... -
Acute response in circulating microRNAs following a single bout of short-sprint and heavy strength training in well-trained cyclists
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Background: Heavy strength (HS) and short-sprint (SS) are commonly used training methods for competitive road cyclists, with the aim to improve the anaerobic power and short time cycling performance. Knowledge of how such ... -
Analysis of a Costly Fiberglass-Polyester Air Filter Fire
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)In September 2020, a fire at a liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant in the Arctic areas of Norway received national attention. In an unengaged air intake, the heat exchanger designed to prevent ice damage during production ... -
Analysis of a High‐Voltage Room Quasi‐Smoke Gas Explosion
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)During an air separation unit shut-down in a methanol production plant, a stop signal was sent to the control cabinet of a synchronous motor for a booster compressor. The control cabinet stopped magnetizing the rotor, while ... -
Analysis of Expected Skin Burns from Accepted Process Flare Heat Radiation Levels to Public Passersby
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Hot flaring, even from quite high flare stacks, may result in significant heat radiation outside a facility to, e.g., public roads where random passersby may be exposed. The present study suggests a novel method for analyzing ... -
Application of flow cytometry in ballast water analysis - biological aspects
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017) -
Application of functional metal anionic Lewis acid ionic liquids in the alkylation of chlorobenzene/SOCl2
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)4,4′-Dichlorodiphenyl sulfoxide is the main raw material for the manufacture of polysulfone, polyether sulfone and other engineering plastics. It is also an intermediate for medicines, dyes and pesticides, which has been ... -
Attack rates amongst household members of outpatients with confirmed COVID-19 in Bergen, Norway: A case-ascertained study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background Households studies reflect the natural spread of SARS-CoV-2 in immunologically naive populations with limited preventive measures to control transmission. We hypothesise that seropositivity provides more ... -
The average velocity in a queue
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)A number of cars drive along a narrow road that does not allow overtaking. Each driver has a certain maximum speed at which he or she will drive if alone on the road. As a result of slower cars ahead, many cars are forced ... -
Behaviour of smoldering fires during periodic refilling of wood pellets into silos
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The evolution of smoldering fires in biomass stored in lab-scale silos with additional fuel material supplied repeatedly, has been studied. The direct effects of the added material on the sample are: cooling, enhanced ... -
Bioorthogonal Non-canonical Amino Acid Tagging Combined With Flow Cytometry for Determination of Activity in Aquatic Microorganisms
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In this study, we have combined bioorthogonal non-canonical amino acid tagging (BONCAT) and flow cytometry (FCM) analysis, and we demonstrate the applicability of the method for marine prokaryotes. Enumeration of active ... -
Can Remote Virtual Simulation Improve Practice-Based Training? Presence and Performance in Incident Commander Education
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)An incident commander (IC) is expected to take command in any incident to mitigate consequences for humans, property, and the environment. To prepare for this, practice-based training in realistic simulated situations is ... -
Characterisation of HNF1A variants in paediatric diabetes in Norway using functional and clinical investigations to unmask phenotype and monogenic diabetes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Aims/hypothesis Correctly diagnosing MODY is important, as individuals with this diagnosis can discontinue insulin injections; however, many people are misdiagnosed. We aimed to develop a robust approach for determining ... -
Circulating monocyte subsets in multiple myeloma patients receiving autologous stem cell transplantation – a study of the preconditioning status and the course until posttransplant reconstitution for a consecutive group of patients
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Background Induction therapy of multiple myeloma patients prior to autologous stem cell transplantation has changed from conventional chemotherapy to treatment based on proteasome inhibitors or immunomodulatory drugs. We ... -

A Cold Climate Wooden Home and Conflagration Danger Index: Justification and Practicability for Norwegian Conditions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The vast majority of fire-related deaths occur in residential buildings. Until recently, the fire risk for these buildings was only considered through static risk assessments or period-based assessments applying to certain ... -
The concept of learning in virtual reality in the context of tunnel fire evacuation knowledge
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2021)This paper aims to explore how and what kind of learning is emphasized in the use of virtual reality to develop fire evacuation knowledge among participants. Experiences from several large tunnel fires in Norway highlight ... -
Conflicted transitions: Exploring the actors, tactics, and outcomes of social opposition against energy infrastructure
