    • Stability Monitoring during Ice Accretion 

      Bottolvs, Per Arild (Master thesis, 2015)
      Abstract The aim of this study is to link the impact of ice accretion on ship motion with its impact on static stability. If such links are demonstrated, ship motion may be applied in more basic and affordable stability ...

      Denne oppgaven undersøker muligheten for å skape en kontroller for et fjernstyrt undervannsfartøy (ROV) med en dyp forsterkningsinlæringsmetode, nærmere bestemt ved hjelp av en Proximal Policy Optimisation (PPO) ...
    • Statisk og Dynamisk Responsanalyse av Salmar Offshore Havbruksanlegg 

      Anda, Ina (Master thesis, 2019)
      Den norske havbruksnæringen har nådd et punkt der videre vekst av næringen ikke lenger ansees som bærekraftig. Samtidig er næringen forventet å produsere større kvanta for å mate den stadig voksende verdensbefolkningen. ...
    • Statistical and Modelling Uncertainties in the Design of Offshore Wind Turbines 

      Horn, Jan-Tore (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:409, Doctoral thesis, 2018)
      This thesis aims to contribute to lowering the cost of offshore wind energy by minimizing design conservatism. By increased confidence in the structural design, the total cost of energy can be reduced through less material ...
    • Statistical fault diagnosis of wind turbine drivetrain applied to a 5MW floating wind turbine 

      Ghane, Mahdi; Rasekhi Nejad, Amir; Blanke, Mogens; Gao, Zhen; Moan, Torgeir (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Deployment of larger scale wind turbine systems, particularly offshore wind turbine, requires more organized operation and maintenance strategies to make it as competitive as the classical electric power stations. It is ...
    • Statistical modeling of Ship’s hydrodynamic performance indicator 

      Gupta, Prateek; Taskar, Bhushan; Steen, Sverre; Rasheed, Adil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The traditional method used to estimate the hydrodynamic performance of a ship uses either the model test results or one of the many empirical methods to estimate and observe the trend in fouling friction coefficient () ...
    • Statistical modelling of extreme ocean current velocity profiles 

      Bore, Pål Takle; Amdahl, Jørgen; Kristiansen, David (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Knowledge about extreme ocean currents and their vertical structure is important when designing offshore structures. We propose a method for statistical modelling of extreme vertical current velocity profiles, accounting ...
    • Statistical properties of successive ocean wave parameters 

      Wist, Hanne Therese (Doctoral thesis, 2003)
