How man-made interference might cause gas bubble emboli in deep diving whales
(2014)Recent cetacean mass strandings in close temporal and spatial association with sonar activity has raised the concern that anthropogenic sound may harm breath-hold diving marine mammals. Necropsy results of the stranded ... -
How to assess good candidate molecules for self-activated optical power limiting
(2018)Reverse saturable absorbers have shown great potential to attenuate laser radiation. Good candidate molecules and various particles have successfully been incorporated into different glass matrices, enabling the creation ... -
Human performance research for military operations in extreme cold environments
(2020)Objectives Soldier performance in the Arctic depends on planning and training, protective equipment, and human physiological limits. The purpose of this review was to highlight the span of current research on enhancing ... -
Hva nå, norsk forsvarsindustri? Instrumentelle og institusjonelle svar på EUs nye politikk på det sikkerhets- og forsvarspolitiske området- Instrumentelle og institusjonelle svar på EUs nye politikk på det sikkerhets- og forsvarspolitiske området
(2019-12-11)Artikkelen diskuterer EUs nye forsvarspakke med særlig vekt på CARD (Coordinated Annual Review on Defence), PESCO (Permanent Structured Cooperation) og EDF (European Defence Fund). Formålet er å styrke EU som sikkerhetspolitisk ... -

Hvordan Putin ble overbevist om å gå til krig
(2023-05-02)Russlands angrep på Ukraina 24. februar 2022 sjokkerte store deler av verden. Putins misnøye med utviklingen i Ukraina og landets tilnærming til Vesten var velkjent, men de fleste trodde lenge at han ikke ville gå til ... -
Hvorfor så ambivalent? USAs politikk overfor EUs forsvarsambisjoner
(2021-01-19)Artikkelen diskuterer forholdet mellom den europeiske integrasjonsprosessen og det atlantiske samarbeidet under USAs ledelse. Problemstillingen artikkelen besvarer er hvilke tilnærminger Trump-administrasjonen har hatt til ... -
A Hybrid Architecture Framework for Simulations in a Service-Oriented Environment
(2017)Service orientation, and more recently, the notions of cloud technology that service orientation enable, are designed to accommodate the need for flexible enterprise business processes. Through standardized interfaces, a ... -
A hybrid recorded-synthetic sonar data set for validation of ASW classification algorithms
(2015)Modern anti-submarine warfare sonars are often designed with narrow beamwidths and wide frequency bandwidths in order to maximize spatial resolution and sonar performance. A known issue for high-resolution sonars in littoral ... -
Hyperosmolar sodium chloride is toxic to cultured neurons and causes reduction of glucose metabolism and ATP levels, an increase in glutamate uptake, and a reduction in cytosolic calcium
(2016)Elevation of serum sodium, hypernatremia, which may occur during dehydration or treatment with sodium chloride, may cause brain dysfunction and damage, but toxic mechanisms are poorly understood. We found that exposure to ... -

Identification and quantification of lichenysin – a possible source of food poisoning
(2015)Lichenysin produced by 53 different Bacillus licheniformis strains has been structurally examined with a qualitative liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method using quadrupole-time-of-flight mass ... -
Identification of airborne bacteria by 16S rDNA sequencing, MALDI-TOF MS and the MIDI microbial identification system
(2015)The aim of this study was to collect and identify airborne bacteria in Norway, Sweden and Finland and to compare three different technologies for identifying collected airborne bacterial isolates: the “gold standard” method ... -
Identification of mixed substances using a random forest regressor to classify THz absorbance spectra
(2018)We report on the development and application of a random forest regressor that not only identifies but also estimates the relative concentrations of substances (one explosive and two simulants), both in one-substance and ... -
Image-aided inertial navigation for an Octocopter
(2018)A typical unmanned aerial system combines an Inertial Navigation System (INS) and a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) for navigation. When the GNSS signal is unavailable, the INS errors grow over time and eventually ... -
