Bruk av digitale verktøy i kjemiundervisningen
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Mange studieretninger har grunnemner innen matematikk, fysikk, kjemi og statistikk som del av studieprogrammet. Erfaringsmessig er det vanskelig å motivere studenter i disse fagene som for mange kun blir støttefag. Disse ... -
Can master students’ experience and learning outcome, be improved?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Most studies on the follow-up and supervision of students, are focused on Ph.D. level, despite that most students complete their education with bachelor’s or master’s degrees. In a previous study on students working with ... -
Community based digital teaching
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)A common approach to digital teaching is to mimic the classical lecturing in a physical classroom. There are limits to how successful this approach might be in helping students to reach the learning outcomes. However, ... -
Cognitive Robotics - Towards the Development of Next-Generation Robotics and Intelligent Systems
(Chapter; Conference object, 2023)In this paper we make the case for cognitive robotics, that we consider a prerequisite for next generation systems. We give a brief account of current cognition-enabled systems, and viable cognitive architectures, discuss ... -
A global metabolomics minefield: Confounding effects of preanalytical factors when studying rare disorders
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)A common challenge when studying rare diseases or medical conditions is the limited number of patients, usually resulting in long inclusion periods as well as unequal sam- pling and storage conditions. The main purpose ... -
The expanding organelle lipidomes: current knowledge and challenges
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Lipids in cell membranes and subcellular compartments play essential roles in numerous cellular processes, such as energy production, cell signaling and inflammation. A specific organelle lipidome is characterized by lipid ... -
Reliability analysis of 15MW horizontal axis wind turbine rotor blades using fluid-structure interaction simulation and adaptive kriging model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Over the course of the last four decades, the rotor diameter of Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines (HAWTs) has undergone a substantial increase, expanding from 15 m (30 kW) to an impressive 240 m (15MW), primarily aimed at ... -
Immune cell subpopulations and serum neurofilament light chain are associated with increased risk of disease worsening in multiple sclerosis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Changes is lymphocyte subpopulations in peripheral blood have been proposed as biomarkers for evaluation of disease activity in multiple sclerosis (MS). Serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) is a biomarker reflecting ... -
Smart controllable wave dispersion in acoustic metamaterials using magnetorheological elastomers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The success in the flexible design of smart acoustic metamaterials is crucially contingent upon the degree of control over the parameters that uniquely define the spectrum of band structure and morphology of dispersion ... -
Dynamic response of blast loaded Hollow Cylindrical and Truncated Conical Shells
