SeaArm - A Subsea Multi-Degree of Freedom Manipulator for Small Observation Class Remotely Operated Vehicles
Eidsvik, Ole Alexander; Haugaløkken, Bent Oddvar Arnesen; Schjølberg, Ingrid (Chapter, 2018)This paper presents the design of a novel low cost 4DOF fully electric subsea manipulator for small work class ROVs. The manipulator is designed to work on a wide range of typical observation class ROVs ranging from 5 kg ... -
SeaArm-2 - Fully electric underwater manipulator with integrated end-effector camera
Skaldebø, Martin Breivik; Haugaløkken, Bent Oddvar Arnesen; Schjølberg, Ingrid (Chapter, 2021)This paper presents an electrically driven underwater manipulator named SeaArm-2 and considers the kinematic control approach to perform autonomous fixed-base grasping of an object of known size and shape at unknown positions ... -
Station-Keeping using Deep Learning
Ulstein, Ingvild Tveit (Master thesis, 2019)Denne oppgaven undersøker muligheten for å skape en kontroller for et fjernstyrt undervannsfartøy (ROV) med en dyp forsterkningsinlæringsmetode, nærmere bestemt ved hjelp av en Proximal Policy Optimisation (PPO) ... -
System Design for the Next Generation Subsea IMR Vehicles
Henriksen, Eirik Hexeberg (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:196, Doctoral thesis, 2018)This thesis is about how to unlock the full potential of unmanned underwater vehicles to save cost and increase quality in inspection maintenance and repair (IMR) services for subsea petroleum extraction equipment. Today ... -
Time Domain Modeling of ROV Umbilical using Beam Equations
Eidsvik, Ole Alexander Nørve; Schjølberg, Ingrid (Journal article, 2016)This paper presents a finite element model for representing the cable dynamics of a typical ROV(Remotely Operated Vehicle) umbilical. The goal is to produce a model able to capture the most important dynamic effects of the ... -
Tools and methods to manage risk in autonomous subsea inspection, maintenance and repair operations
Hegde, Jeevith (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:71, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Autonomous subsea interventions are anticipated to decrease operational costs, reduce response time and optimally maintain the subsea infrastructure. However, the introduction of autonomy may lead to emerging risk factors ... -
