En tragedie i tre akter - framveksten av den islamske staten
(2014)Organisasjonen som i dag kaller seg Den islamske staten, og dens forgjengere, har vokst fram som en konsekvens av konflikter som i utgangspunktet oppsto uavhengig av dem – først og fremst et militært og politisk sammenbrudd ... -
Enantioselectivity, swelling and stability of 4-hydroxyprolinol containing acrylic polymer beads in the asymmetric reduction of ketones
(2011)A new 4-hydroxy-α,α-diphenyl-l-prolinol containing polymethacrylate, prepared without chromatography by a large scale adaptable synthesis, has been evaluated as a catalyst in the asymmetric reduction of 1-arylethanones. ... -
Energy deficit increases hepcidin and exacerbates declines in dietary iron absorption following strenuous physical activity: a randomized-controlled cross-over trial
(2020-11-12)Background Strenuous physical activity promotes inflammation and depletes muscle glycogen, which may increase the iron regulatory hormone hepcidin. Hepcidin reduces dietary iron absorption and may contribute to declines ... -
Energy Partition in Magnetic Reconnection in Earth's Magnetotail
(2013)The partition of energy flux in magnetic reconnection is examined experimentally using Cluster satellite observations of collisionless reconnection in Earth’s magnetotail. In this plasma regime, the dominant component of ... -
Energy-scale Aware Feature Extraction for Flow Visualization
(2011)In the visualization of flow simulation data, feature detectors often tend to result in overly rich response, making some sort of filtering or simplification necessary to convey meaningful images. In this paper we present ... -
Enhancement in Light Emission From Hg-Cd-Te Due to Surface Patterning
(2011)Enhancement of light emission from HgCdTe due to surface patterning has been studied by means of photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. A triangular pattern of circular holes was etched into the CdTe layer grown on top of ... -
Enhancing far-field thermal emission with thermal extraction
(2013)The control of thermal radiation is of great current importance for applications such as energy conversions and radiative cooling. Here we show theoretically that the thermal emission of a finite-size blackbody emitter can ... -
Environmental Adaptation of Robot Morphology and Control Through Real-world Evolution
(2021-03-30)Robots operating in the real world will experience a range of different environments and tasks. It is essential for the robot to have the ability to adapt to its surroundings to work efficiently in changing conditions. ... -
Equipment to tag, track and collect biopsies from whales and dolphins: the ARTS, DFHorten and LKDart systems
(2022-10-21)Of all animals considered subjects for instrumentation for behavioral or physiological studies, cetaceans probably represent the greatest challenge to the engineer and biologist. The marine environment being harsh to ... -
Er Nato en effektiv allianse? Om forholdet mellom kollektivt forsvar og internasjonale operasjoner
(2015)Hvilke forhold er det som bestemmer Natos effektivitet som allianse, og hvorfor er det slik at Nato av mange anses som best egnet til å være en kollektiv forsvarsallianse? Med et liberalt-institusjonalistisk utgangspunkt ... -
ERS tandem InSAR processing for DEM generation, glacier motion estimation and coherence analysis on Svalbard
(2003)This paper describes the unique InSAR (Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar) processing algorithms at Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI) and how ERS (European Remote Sensing Satellite) tandem data are used ... -
Estimated tissue and blood N2 levels and risk of in vivo bubble formation in deep-, intermediate and shallow diving toothed whales during exposure to naval sonar.
(2012)Naval sonar has been accused of causing whale stranding by a mechanism which increases formation of tissue N2 gas bubbles. Increased tissue and blood N2 levels, and thereby increased risk of decompression sickness (DCS), ... -
Estimating output mix effectiveness: An applied scenario approach for the Armed Forces
(2019)The ability of public sector policy makers to prioritize has a huge impact on the effectiveness of public service provision. Public services can take the form of final outputs demanded by consumers or of intermediate outputs ... -
ESTIMATING RANGE DEPENDENT SEDIMENT THICKNESS AND REFLECTION COEFFICIENTS FROM BATHYMETRIC DATA FOR IMPROVED SONAR PERFORMANCE MODELLING
(2019)Knowledge about the underwater environment is critical to anti-submarine warfare operations in littoral waters. The sonar settings and depth selections can significantly affect the predicted sonar performance. Bathymetry ... -
Estimating temperature and salinity profiles using empiricalorthogonal functions and clusteringon historical measurements
(2013)Oceanographic climatology is normally estimated by dividing the world’s oceans into geographical boxes of fixed shape and size, where each box is represented by a climatological salinity and temperature profile. The ... -
Estimating the capture and loss of cold plasma from ionospheric outflow
(2012)An important source of magnetospheric plasma is cold plasma from the terrestrial ionosphere. Low energy ions travel along the magnetic field lines and enter the magnetospheric lobes where they are convected toward the tail ... -
Estimating the pixel footprint distribution for image fusion by ray tracing lines of sight in a Monte Carlo scheme
(2013)Images from airborne cameras can be a valuable resource for data fusion, but this typically requires them to be georeferenced. This usually implies that the information of every pixel should be accompanied by a single ... -
European defence research in crisis? The way towards strategic autonomy
(2016)Defence research, in the form of both research and development (R&D) and research and technology (R&T), are important factors in achieving long-term European strategic autonomy. The present paper analyses this debate from ... -
Evaluating Publish/Subscribe Protocols for use in Constrained Networks
(2023-03-09)Considering the case of disaster relief and search and rescue operations, we can anticipate personnel operating with a total or partial lack of any pre-existing infrastructure. This means that ad hoc com- munication solutions ...
