Evaluation and improvement of quantitative precipitation estimates for use in hydrological applications
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:273, Doctoral thesis, 2019)Accurate precipitation estimation at the catchment scale is required for various hydrological applications. Spatial interpolation using gauges as a single source often proves insufficient to obtain a distributed ... -
Evaluation of the effect of aggregate mineralogy on the durability of asphalt pavements
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:110, Doctoral thesis, 2015)Shape, gradation, hardness and texture are among the aggregate characteristics necessary to consider during the asphalt mixture design process. However these characteristics do not provide direct information on the ... -

An Event-Based Pipeline for Geospatial Vector Data Management
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:17, Doctoral thesis, 2021)Ever since we started exploring the world, information about where things are and how to get there has been valuable and sought-after. The hand-drawn, and later printed, map provided an efficient mechanism for storing and ... -
Expanding knowledge base for photovoltaic systems’ integration by contributing to the development of an experimental testing method for evaluation of their performance as climate screens
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2023:428, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) is a vital element of zero energy or zero emission buildings (ZEB). BIPV systems are integrated into the building envelope and generate electricity on-site during the expected service ... -
Experimental and Numerical Investigations of Dynamic Positioning in Discontinuous Ice
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:329, Doctoral thesis, 2015)This thesis studies dynamic positioning (DP) operations of a conceptual Arctic drillship in discontinuous sea ice conditions. The stationkeeping behaviour of the vessel under the influence of dynamic ice actions is ... -
Experimental and Numerical Investigations of Ice-Structure Interaction
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2009:26, Doctoral thesis, 2009)Ice interacting with offshore structures is of major engineering concern in areas where human activities and (seasonal) sea ice coexist. This thesis deals with experimental as well as numerical investigations of (level) ... -
Experimental and Numerical Studies of Moored Ships in Level Ice
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2011:14, Doctoral thesis, 2011)Moored ships are believed to be feasible for marine operations in ice-covered waters. A variety of ice features, such as broken ice, level ice, ridged ice and icebergs, will pose potential challenges with respect to design ... -
Experimental and numerical studies related to failure of first-year ice ridges against fixed vertically sided structures
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:192, Doctoral thesis, 2019) -
Experimental basin- and laboratory-scale studies related to ice ridges, rubble accumulations and freeze-bonds
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2011:256, Doctoral thesis, 2011) -
Experimental investigations on fire performance of the engineered wood products cross-laminated timber and I-joists
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:135, Doctoral thesis, 2024)The building industry has, in recent years, more frequently used different engineered wood products, like cross-laminated timber (CLT), glue-laminated timber and I-joists. The increased popularity is due to the many ... -
Experimental studies of wave-ice interactions – insights into data analysis methods and their applications to studying the wave-induced responses of ice cover
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2020:228, Doctoral thesis, 2020)Studies of wave-ice interactions include field and laboratory experiments, theoretical model developments, the implementation of these theoretical models in simulation tools, and the validation and calibration of these ... -

Field Measurements and Analysis of the Morphological, Physical and Mechanical Properties of Level Ice and Sea Ice Ridges
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2012:133, Doctoral thesis, 2012)Sea ice is a major obstacle for developing oil and gas industries in Arctic regions. To ensure safe and efficient exploration and exploitation of resources in the Arctic Basin, knowledge of the type, thickness, strength ... -

First-year sea ice features. Investigation of ice field strength heterogeneity and modelling of ice rubble behaviour
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2007:176, Doctoral thesis, 2007)For the nearest years the design load level for offshore structures in Arctic regions is likely to be controlled by first-year sea ice ridges and rubble fields if the icebergs are not present in the area. Drifting ridges ... -
Floe Ice – Sloping Structure Interactions
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2014:324, Doctoral thesis, 2014)Several interaction processes can be identified during floe ice - sloping structure interactions. However, fierce processes around the waterline are the most conspicuous phenomena. These violent processes feature ice ... -
Force and response estimation on bottom-founded structures prone to ice-induced vibrations
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:217, Doctoral thesis, 2015)Various types of bottom-founded structures, including lighthouses, quay structures, mono-pod platforms, multi-legged platforms, caisson-retained islands and bridges, are located in ice-infested waters. Level ice can ... -
