Improved discretisation and linearisation of active tension in strongly coupled cardiac electro-mechanics simulations
(2012)Mathematical models of cardiac electro-mechanics typically consist of three tightly coupled parts: systems of ordinary differential equations describing electro-chemical reactions and cross-bridge dynamics in the muscle ... -
Improved estimation of oceanographic climatology using empirical orthogonal functions and clustering
(2013)Vertical profiles of temperature, salinity, and sound speed velocity are used in numerous applications where accurate vertical profiles are crucial. Conventional climatological representations of vertical oceanographic ... -
Improved Passivation Effect Due to Controlled Smoothing of the CdTe-HgCdTe Interface Gradient by Thermal Annealing
(2019-07-11)HgCdTe films grown by liquid phase epitaxy were passivated with CdTe grown by molecular beam epitaxy. A series of annealing tests with different temperatures and durations were then carried out in order to reach a two-fold ... -
Improving ship detection by using polarimetric decompositions
(2015-10-12)Norway’s large ocean areas require efficient methods to monitor vessels. Radar satellites in orbit today offer dual- or quad-polarised data, which ease the task of detecting vessels in a SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) ... -
Improving the decision-making basis by strengthening the risk assessments of unexploded ordnance and explosive remnants of war
(2023-01-15)For many countries, the legacy of armed conflict in the form of unexploded ordnance has a severe impact on society and daily life, as millions of tonnes of explosive remnants of war represent a grave threat to both the ... -

In operando neutron diffraction study of a commercial graphite/(Ni, Mn, Co) oxide-based multi-component lithium ion battery
(2016)In situ neutron diffraction was employed to investigate the structural evolution of the electrode materials in an ICR 10440 commercial cylindrical lithium-ion battery, which has a discharge capacity of 360 mAh and a nominal ... -
In situ performance prediction of a coherent acoustic modem in a reverberant environment
(2021-07-28)A channel sounding and communications experiment was performed in the Oslofjord, using eight bottom-mounted instrument units deployed in a network configuration. Five units were equipped with a software-defined 4–8-kHz ... -
In-Body to On-Body Ultrawideband Propagation Model Derived from Measurements in Living Animals
(2015)Ultra wideband (UWB) radio technology for wireless implants has gained significant attention. UWB enables the fabrication of faster and smaller transceivers with ultra low power consumption, which may be integrated into ... -
In-operation calibration of clock-bias and intrinsic parameters for pan-tilt-zoom cameras based on keypoint tracking
(2020-09-20)We propose a method for jointly estimating intrinsic calibration and internal clock synchronisation for a pantilt- zoom (PTZ) camera using only data that can be acquired in the field during normal operation. Results show ... -
In-orbit AIS performance of the Norwegian microsatellites NorSat-1 and NorSat-2
(2019-11-21)Two Norwegian AIS-satellites, NorSat-1 and NorSat-2, were launched in July 2017. Both are equipped with the ASR x50, the latest space-AIS receiver developed by Kongsberg Seatex AS, ofering advanced signal processing and ... -
Incentivers effekt på turnover
(2002)This FFI report is based on the final Master of Management project assignment from the Norwegian Business School. The report looks into the kind of attitudes employees have towards turnover. To find out more, the report ... -
Increased CSF levels of aromatic amino acids in hip fracture patients with delirium suggests higher monoaminergic activity
(2016)Background To examine whether delirium in hip fracture patients was associated with changes in the levels of amino acids and/or monoamine metabolites in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum. Methods In this ... -
Increased impact sensitivity in ageing high explosives; analysis of Amatol extracted from explosive remnants of war
(2024-03-27)Millions of tonnes of explosive remnants of war remain in nature, and the volume is continuously growing. The explosive legacy of wars represents an increasing threat to the environment and to societal safety and security. ... -
Increasing robustness of HF communications at high latitudes - utilizing ionospheric data and space diversity
