Database for design-compatible waveforms
(2023)Abstract on selection of ground motions for microzonation. We have analyzed and compared the stations metadata of three strong motion databases: KiK-net (Japan), ESM (Europe and Middle East), and NGA-West2 (USA). For each data-base, we propose a subset of stations suitable for the purposes of the project. These sub-sets of stations comprise 772 sites classified in terms of SIA261 (2020) soil categories (A-E), inspecting the provided VS ...Report -
Modelling life cycle costs for edge beams of three Norwegian bridges
(2022)NPRA ReportsFor the planning of cost-effective infrastructure maintenance, it is important to assess the condition of structures and to estimate the optimum time, the extent and the type of repair needed to continue operating the structures safely. In this study, a novel approach is presented, which combines data from condition assessment of reinforced concrete structures (e.g. chloride profiles), predictive modelling (future chloride ingress) and ...Report -
Techno-Economic Assessment & Life Cycle Assessment Guidelines for CO2 Utilization (Version 2.0)
(2022)Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time. Under the auspices of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change and through the Paris Agreement, there is a commitment to keep global temperature rise this century to well below two degrees Celsius compared with pre-industrial levels. This will require a variety of strategies, including increased renewable power generation, broad-scale electrification, greater energy ...Report -
