      Cuende, E.; Herrmann, Bent; Sistiaga, Manu; Basterretxea, M.; Edridge, A.; Mackenzie, E.K.; Kynoch, R.J.; Diez, G. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Achieving effective size selectivity for different species within a fishing gear is a major challenge in mixed fisheries. Fish behaviour may be exploited to separate species into separate codends where different selective ...
    • Specifying performances for Best Available Technique (BAT) evaluations in offshore developments 

      Nyland, Rolf Magne (Master thesis, 2010)
      The Climate and Pollution Agency (Klif) consider target of national environmental policies when determining which abatement costs are cost-effective. They demand transparent cost/benefit evaluations from operators when ...
    • Spectral wave modelling for determining wave exposure in Norwegian aquaculture 

      Berntsen, Benjamin Hilmar Uteng (Master thesis, 2021)
      Det ble utført en sensitivitetsstudie på bølgemodellen SWAN, slik den blir brukt for lokalitetsanalyser i norsk akvakultur. To lokasjoner ble valgt for studien. På begge lokasjonene var lokalitetsanalyser allerede gjennomført ...
    • Speed and powering prediction for ships based on model testing 

      Øyan, Espen (Master thesis, 2012)
      The ITTC78 method was originally designed for conventional single screw ships, but has later been modified to adapt twin screw ships and podded propulsors. Nowadays even more unconvensional propulsors are introduced, and ...
    • Stability Assessment of a Semisubmersible Floating Offshore Wind Turbine 

      Myhre, Ida Emilie (Master thesis, 2024)
      Den økende etterspørselen etter fornybar energi har ledet til større interesse for utvikling av flytende havvindturbiner. Havvindparker tilbyr muligheten til å utnytte omfattende områder med stabil vind, noe som gjør dem ...
    • Stability assessment of anchor handling vessels during operations 

      Gunnu, Giriraja Sekhar; Moan, Torgeir (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      To ensure safety in anchor handling operations, maintaining anchor handling vessel stability is recognized as a critical and complex task. The vessel’s stability depends primarily on the vessel’s design and operational ...
    • 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 ...
