Hydrological forecasting in catchments with glaciers
(Master thesis, 2015)The runoff forecast is crucial in Norway because the country bases most of its electricity from hydropower. The hydrological model has thus been improved for years in order to foresee the runoff in the best possible way. ... -
Impact of Climate Change on Hydropower Potential in the Koshi Basin, Nepal
(Master thesis, 2015)Water resource has been termed as main source of development, in Nepal. Steep gradients, perennial river system and huge storage as snow in Himalayas makes perfect environment for hydropower production in Nepal. Such ... -
Impacts of Climate Change on Flow Regimes in Central Norway
(Master thesis, 2017)The phenomenon of climate change has had widespread impacts on the climatic and ecological setup of the globe ranging from rapid melting of polar ice caps to startling changes in weather patterns around the planet. From a ... -
Impacts of climate change on the floods in Lake Victoria
(Master thesis, 2017)ABSTRACT The effect of climate change not only touches every corner of our planet s ecosystem, however, the water cycle is no exception due to the processes involved which are highly dependent on temperature changes. ... -
Improvement of flood forecasting simulations with the Telemark Flood Forecasting Model
(Master thesis, 2016)Flood is the most common environmental hazard worldwide and can have an devastating consequences affecting the economy, environment, and people. The causes and nature of flood may be different, but it is important to control ... -
Landslide generated waves in dam reservoirs - Experimental investigation on a physical hydraulic model
(Master thesis, 2017)The impulse waves generated by landslides that occur in an artificial basin may have disastrous impacts on the surrounding environment. For Alpine lakes, impulse waves are particularly significant, because of steep shores, ... -
Load measurements at riprap toe.
(Master thesis, 2018)Riprap is widely used as slope protection and when placed on the downstream slope of a rockfill dam, it provides erosion resistance under overflow conditions. For steep downstream slopes (S > 50%), initiation of riprap ... -
Modeling the trade-off between production of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) and power at Laudal Hydropower plant.
(Master thesis, 2014)A modelling study on the trade-offs between the production of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and the production of power at Laudal hydropower plant was conducted. The study examined the use of physical mitigation measures ... -
Modernised GUI and Automated optimizing of hydropower schemes for nMag
(Master thesis, 2018)During the last decades of the twentieth century various tools to simulate water systems have been developed. One of these tools is ENMag, a simulator that models a single reservoir. Later, in the 1990 s as a continuation ... -
Optimize Operations and Future Development on Multi-Purpose Tana Beles Hydropower Project
(Master thesis, 2016)Abstract Different projects in Tana-Beles basins were identified as water resource development project and implemented to attain the country s development goals. One of these projects is Tana-Beles multipurpose hydropower ... -
Performance of a two-dimensional hydraulic model for the evaluation of stranding areas and characterization of rapid fluctuations in hydropeaking rivers - Storåne, Hallingdal
(Master thesis, 2018)Extreme, short-duration fluctuations caused by hydropeaking occurs when hydropower is used to cover peaks for electrical loading conditions of the power network. Such a rapid dewatering processes may have a high impact for ... -
Physical model study on impacts of landslide generated wave action on embankment dams
(Master thesis, 2015)The master thesis "Physical model study on impacts of landslide generated wave action on embankment dams" has been written in collaboration with the Department of Hydraulic and Environmental Engineering at NTNU and the ... -
Prefeasibility Study of Piedras Negras Hydropower Plant
(Master thesis, 2018)Piedras Negras hydropower plant, found in the high altitudes of the Andes mountain range, specifically on the San José river in the Libertador O'Higgins region of Chile, will have a design flow of 10 m³/s, a gross head ... -
Reducing Urban Water System's Carbon Footprint and Reservoir Water Balance Study in Ceuta, Spain
(Master thesis, 2016)This study seeks to reduce the energy consumed by the water company in Ceuta by implementing two type of developments: hydropower and solar photovoltaic project. It will be necessary to design both schemes and determine ... -
Regional Forecasting of Inflow and Generation for Small Hydropower Plants
(Master thesis, 2015)The total contribution of the energy generation of the small hydropower (Installed capacity<10 MW) becomes more and more significant in Norway. Indeed, the number of small hydropower plant is increasing since the last ... -
Regional modelling of the Narayani basin in Nepal.
(Master thesis, 2016)Computing inflow from ungauged basins is a challenge in practical hydrology since many planning assignments is located in areas where no data is available. A number of methods are developed to handle ungauged basins ... -
Reservoir Sedimentation Study for the Bunakha Hydro-electric Project
(Master thesis, 2016)This thesis presents a study on the sedimentation of the reservoir of the Bunakha Hydro-electric Project in Bhutan. Although the Detailed Project Report for this peaking reservoir scheme has already been completed, it has ... -
RUNOFF FORECASTING AND DEVELOPMENT OF AN OPERATIONAL PRODUCTION PLANNING MODEL FOR THE BUI HYDROPOWER PLANT IN THE BLACK VOLTA, GHANA
(Master thesis, 2015)The Bui Hydropower reservoir faces a situation of excess inflow in the rainy season and very little inflow in the dry season. This situation has prompted a major focus on the development of an accurate inflow forecasting ... -
