• Analysis of Vortex Induced Motions for Floating Wind Turbines 

      Christensen, Anni Yang (Master thesis, 2019)
      Et økende fokus på globale oppvarming har vært den drivende kraften bak forsking på fornybar energi i flere år. Vindkraft er en viktig bidragsyter blant de fornybare energiprodusentene, og markedet for vindkraft er i ...
    • Dynamic loads on marine propellers due to intermittent ventilation 

      Califano, Andrea (Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2010:252, Doctoral thesis, 2010)
      Dynamic Positioning (DP) systems are increasingly replacing traditional positionkeeping methods—such as jack-up barges and anchoring systems—on board ships operating in ever deeper waters. During these operations, the ...
    • Hydrodynamic effects regarding free-fall lifeboat for compressible air in CFD simulations 

      Svendsen, Andreas Grung (Master thesis, 2017)
      Free falling lifeboats are often used as a last resort evacuation system for fixed or floating offshore installations. Lifeboats are normally resting at a skid which is mounted at the mother vessel, until the hook holding ...
    • Hydrodynamic effects relevant for free-falling lifeboats in wave conditions 

      Netland, Vegard (Master thesis, 2017)
      A free- falling lifeboat is a last resort evacuation system, installed on many rigid and floating offshore structures. The diving process of a free-falling lifeboat is a complex matter, as the external forces varies through ...
    • Preliminary evaluation of the climate-induced fatigue in wood: A physical and computational approach 

      Califano, Andrea; Zanola, A.; Di Terlizzi, Terlizzi; Baiesi, M.; Bertolin, Chiara (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Wood is the organic hygroscopic material for excellence. Due to its extremely easy handling, it has always been used in many applications, especially as building material for artefacts and works of art. However, it is ...
    • Structural loads on a free-falling lifeboat 

      Groth, Simen (Master thesis, 2017)
      Free-falling lifeboats are a method of escaping hazardous events in open sea. They rest at a skid until released and launched into the water. It is important that the use of free-falling lifeboats ensure a safe evacuation. ...
