The effectiveness of avalanche airbags
(Journal article, 2014)Aim: Asphyxia is the primary cause of death among avalanche victims. Avalanche airbags can lower mortality by directly reducing grade of burial, the single most important factor for survival. This study aims to provide an ... -
Effects of abiotic processes on the correlation between pH and pO<inf>2</inf> in the Norwegian Sea: Implications for GCS monitoring
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023) -
Effects of acidic water on hydro-mechanical properties of asphalt concrete
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Asphalt concrete is widely used in road and airport pavements and more recently also in the construction of impervious facings and central cores in dams and dykes. Asphalt concrete may be subjected to strongly acidic water ... -
Effects of curvature in avalanche deflecting dams
(Chapter, 2005)Avalanches and other types of slides represent significant danger to people and property in large parts of the world. Deflecting dams, i.e. dams that change the courses of avalanches to prevent impact upon houses or roads, ... -
Effects of Drilling for Tieback Anchors on Surrounding Ground: Results from Field Tests
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)A full-scale field test program was carried out to investigate the effects of drilling for tieback anchors on the surrounding ground. The test anchors were drilled from the ground surface through a soft clay deposit and ... -
Effects of fines content in numerical simulation of CPTu in silty sands
(Lecture, 2023)The Cone Penetration Test (CPTu) does not measure soil properties directly; rather, it measures cone resistance, sleeve friction and pore water pressure, that correlated with laboratory test data, allow estimation of soil ... -
Effects of Leachates from UV-Weathered Microplastic in Cell-Based Bioassays
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Standard ecotoxicological testing of microplastic does not provide insight into the influence that environmental weathering by, e.g., UV light has on related effects. In this study, we leached chemicals from plastic into ... -
Effects of leachates from UV-weathered microplastic on the microalgae Scenedesmus vacuolatus
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021) -
Effects of Organic Carbon Origin on Hydrophobic Organic Contaminant Fate in the Baltic Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021) -
Effects of rotational submarine slump dynamics on tsunami-genesis – new insight from idealized models and the 1929 Grand Banks event
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Sediment slumps are known to have generated important tsunamis such as the 1998 Papua New Guinea (PNG) and the 1929 Grand Banks events. Tsunami modellers commonly use solid blocks with short run-out distances to simulate ... -
Effects of stress reduction on geomechanical and acoustic relationship of overconsolidated sands
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Relationship between different geomechanical and acoustic properties measured from seven laboratory tested unconsolidated natural sands with different mineralogical compositions and textures were presented. The samples ... -
Electrochemical Oxidation for Treatment of PFAS in Contaminated Water and Fractionated Foam─A Pilot-Scale Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023) -
Emerging insights into the dynamics of submarine debris flows
(Journal article, 2005)Recent experimental and theoretical work on the dynamics of submarine debris flows is summarized. Hydroplaning was first discovered in laboratory flows and later shown to likely occur in natural debris flows as well. It ... -
Empirical approach based on centrifuge testing for cyclic deformations of laterally loaded piles in sand
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)A systematic study into the response of monopiles to lateral cyclic loading in medium dense and dense sand was performed in beam and drum centrifuge tests. The centrifuge tests were carried out at different cyclic load and ... -
Empirical Calculations of Snow–Avalanche Run–out Distance Based on Topographic Parameters
(Journal article, 1980)A method for calculation of “maximum” avalanche run–out distance based on topographic parameters only is described. 423 well–known avalanches have had their maximum extent registered. The average gradient of avalanche path ... -
Engineering properties of low to medium overconsolidation ratio offshore clays
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)This paper presents a summary of the geotechnical engineering properties of low to medium overconsolidation ratio offshore inorganic clays derived from a high quality database. These properties, such as preconsolidation ... -
Engineering properties of Norwegian peat for calculation of settlements
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022) -
Environmental impact assessments of geotechnical works
(NGI-rapport;20200436-12-R, Research report, 2023-08-14)One of the major contributors to global carbon emissions is the construction sector. Using world environmental input-output tables from 2009, the total CO2-emissions from the global construction sector was calculated to ... -
Estimates on the reach of the powder part of avalanches
(Lecture, 2018)Avalanche observations from Norway, Austria and Switzerland, which distinguish between dense (fluidized) flow and powder part, are analyzed to obtain probability information about the reach of the powder part. The analysis ...
