A phase-time-path-difference approach for online wave direction and wave number estimation from measured ship motions in zero and forward speed using a single inertial measurement unit
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)This study investigates the potential capability of a relatively new and unexplored signal-based approach for shipboard wave estimation. The approach uses the phase-time-path-differences (PTPDs) from an array of shipboard ... -
Decision support methods for optimizing subsea hydrocarbon production systems with processing equipment
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:111, Doctoral thesis, 2024)As the use of subsea processing increases and technology advances, subsea layout possibilities and configurations diversify and get more complex, causing manual design processes to be cumbersome and often suboptimal. ... -
Circular economy strategies for reducing carbon emissions in construction: A case study of reused materials in the design and construction of a storage in Granåsen
(Master thesis, 2024)Overgangen fra en lineær til en sirkulær økonomi er avgjørende for å redusere globale klima- gassutslipp. Denne masteroppgaven undersøker potensialet og miljøpåvirkningen av ombruk av bygningskomponenter i den norske bygge- ... -
Design and eco-technoeconomic analysis of a natural gas cogeneration energy management center (EMC) with short-term thermal storage
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)This work proposes a non-islanded cogeneration energy management center (EMC) that can be used to displace grid-level natural gas turbine systems and natural gas combustion systems for heat. The design of the proposed EMC ... -
Flow topology in the gap and wake of convex curved tandem cylinders
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Flow around curved tandem cylinders in the convex configuration has been studied by means of direct numerical simulations, for a Reynolds number of 500 and a nominal gap ratio of 3.0. Spanwise variation of flow regimes, ... -
Asymmetric cellular bi-stability in the gap between tandem cylinders
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)In the gap region of tandem cylinders, within the reattachment regime, bi-stability is seen to be cellular. Direct numerical simulations at a Reynolds number of 500, and a gap ratio of 3.0, show that shedding of gap vortices ... -
The Influence of the Rake Angle on the Cutting of Low-Lead and Lead-Free Brass Alloys
