A Benchmarking Framework for Control Methods of Maritime Cranes Based on the Functional Mockup Interface
(Journal article, 2017)A benchmark framework for advanced control methods of maritime cranes is presented based on the use of the functional mockup interface. The system integrates different manipulator models, all the corresponding hydraulic ... -
A better Horizon Auto Tracker - Powered by Machine Learning
(Master thesis, 2018)Computer-assisted horizon interpretation on 3D seismic data has been commercially available for almost 15 years. The process is generally referred to as 3D horizon autotracking and is a powerful method when interpreting ... -
A bézier curve based ship trajectory optimization for close-range maritime operations
(Chapter, 2017)Ship maneuvering in close-range maritime operations is challenging for pilots, since they have to not only prevent the ship from collisions and compensate environmental impacts, but also steer it close to the target towards ... -
A Big Data Approach to Generate Training Data for Automatic Ship Detection - An Integration of AIS and Sentinel-2 MSI
(Master thesis, 2018)A fast and scalable approach to combine global satellite images with ship navigational messages In this project, we have developed a data processing pipeline that combines multiple sources of data in order to automate the ... -
A Bio-inspired Swimming Robot Concept Design for Marine Aquaculture Applications
(Master thesis, 2014)In this master thesis project, a concept design of bio-inspired swimming robot is developed for marine aquaculture applications. According to the requirements from the marine aquaculture industry, the manta ray is selected ... -
A Blended Learning Approach to Teaching Project Management: A Model for Active Participation and Involvement: Insights from Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)The paper demonstrates and evaluates the effectiveness of a blended learning approach to create a meaningful learning environment. We use the term blended learning approach in this paper to refer to the use of multiple or ... -
A Bond Graph Approach for Modelling Systems of Rigid Bodies in Spatial Motion
(Master thesis, 2014)The research presented in this thesis seeks to improve the current state and technique for dynamic modelling of systems of rigid bodies in spatial motion. The research have been focused around modelling of underwater ... -
A bottom-fixed lattice tower for offshore wind turbines
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2014:160, Doctoral thesis, 2014)Wind turbines have been sited away from coasts in the last decade to exploit the tremendous potential of wind energy on the vast oceans, especially in Northern Europe where there is relatively limited space on land and ... -
A Boundary Element Method Applied to Strongly Nonlinear Wave-Body Interaction Problems
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2007:141, Doctoral thesis, 2007)A two-dimensional Boundary Element Method (BEM) based on potential flow theory is developed to study wave-body interaction problems with strongly nonlinear effects. In particular, the following problems are studied. One ... -
A brute-force spectral approach for wave estimation using measured vessel motions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The article introduces a spectral procedure for sea state estimation based on measurements of motion responses of a ship in a short-crested seaway. The procedure relies fundamentally on the wave buoy analogy, but the wave ... -
A Building Information Model (BIM) Based Lifecycle Assessment of a University Hospital Building Built to Passive House Standards
(Master thesis, 2012)This thesis undertook a whole building lifecycle assessment of a university hospital building in Trondheim, Norway designed to passive house standards. The delivered energy for electricity and heating was estimated to be ... -
A cartesian cut-cell method, based on formal volume averaging of mass, momentum equations
(Chapter, 2017)Simulation of multiphase flows are generally treated by various classes of Eulerian methods, Lagrangian methods and various combinations of these. In the SIMCOFLOW initiative we have set out to develop a framework for ... -

A Case Study of How MPD Techniques Can Be Used to Adapt to Uncertain Pore and Fracture Pressure Gradients
(Master thesis, 2014)This thesis aims to identify the potential and limitations of using Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) in deepwater fields where narrow and unpredictable mud weight windows are encountered. A significant effort has been done ... -
A case study of life cycle impacts of small-scale fishing techniques in Thailand
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Fish provides an important source of protein, especially in developing countries, and the amounts of fish consumed are increasing worldwide (mostly from aquaculture). More than half of all marine fish are caught by small-scale ... -
A CFD analysis for the performance assessment of a novel design of plates-in-tank latent storage unit for freezing applications
(Chapter, 2019)In this paper, the charging and discharging processes of a recently developed cold thermal energy storage (CTES) unit integrated into a poultry processing plant is investigated. A mathematical model of the CTES was created ... -
A CFD-model of the Fluid Flow in a Hydrogen Peroxide Monopropellant Rocket Engine in ANSYS Fluent 16.2
(Master thesis, 2016)The use of hydrazine in monopropellant thrusters has dominated the market for several decades. Due to the toxic nature of hydrazine, the interest in developing thrusters based on green propellants has increased. A common ... -
A classification method for scaling river biotopes for assessing hydropower regulation impacts
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2005:140, Doctoral thesis, 2005)This thesis describes the development of a habitat assessment methodology based on theories of hydroecology for use in river basin management. The methodology includes a robust habitat classification system and provides ...
