    • WP1 - Mixed fractions of black shale and rhomb porphyry 

      Totland, Christian (NGI-rapport;20200436-02-R, Research report, 2023-02-20)
      When taking out potentially acid-producing black shale in construction projects, rock masses are often unintentionally mixed with masses of other rocks. The acid-producing potential of such mixed masses is uncertain, and ...

    • Yield Stresses in Soft Contracting Clays 

      Aas, Gunnar; Lacasse, Suzanne (NGI Publication;209, Chapter, 2022)
      The undrained shear strength su along an arbitrary failure plane can be expressed as: su = 1/2(σ'ULS − σ'LLS) (1) where σ'ULS and σ'LLS denote the upper (U) and lower (L) effective, normal, compressive failure stresses ...
    • Årsrapport [FoU Snøskred 2012]

      Rapporten beskriver aktivitetene som er gjennomført i 2012 innenfor FoU prosjektet ”Snøskred” finansiert gjennom NVE. Prosjektet er delt inn i 4 hovedområder: - Modellering - Varsling - Sikringstiltak, herunder ...
    • Økt skredfare kan avverges 

      Jaedicke, Christian; Isaksen, Ketil; Sletten, Kari; Kronholm, Kalle (Klima;1-2009, Chapter, 2009)
      Klimaendringer gir villere vær, mer nedbør og flere skredhendelser i deler av Norge. Men dette trenger ikke føre til flere dødsfall og økte materielle skader, hvis vi bruker sunn fornuft og følger bygningsloven.
