      Aquaculture and especially exposed aquaculture is a business heading into a period of large growth and rapid change. Considerable amounts of resources are and will be put into research to insure safe and sustainable ...
    • Estimation of Speed Loss due to Current, Wind and Waves - A Data-Driven Approach 

      Gjølme, Jens Christoffer (Master thesis, 2017)
      There is an increasing demand from customers, governments and maritime authorities when it comesto emission control and energy efficiency in the maritime industry. Demands in efficiency requires amore ...
    • Fault Detection for Position Mooring Using Statistical Analysis 

      Kolstø, Andreas Bro (Master thesis, 2018)
      The standard approach for detecting mooring line failures for position moored vessels is by measuring the tension in the mooring lines, either directly or indirectly. The sensors measuring the line tensions are often hard ...
    • Fault-tolerant Observer Design 

      Mokleiv, Børge (Master thesis, 2017)
      This master thesis dealt with the development of a fault-tolerant model-based observer for a low-cost ROV developed by BluEye Robotitcs, P2-Alpha. The observer was developed for 4 degrees of freedom (DOFs) using the installed ...
    • Feasibility Study on Active Wave Compensation of ROV - Modelling, Analysis and Simulation 

      Hagen, Hilde Christine (Master thesis, 2014)
      The aquaculture industry is using remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) for maintenance tasks on fish farms. These tasks include, among others, washing of the netpen and visual inspections. These are tedious tasks, and it would ...
    • Finite Element Modeling and Structural State Estimation of a Bottom Fixed Offshore Wind Turbine 

      Paust, Henrik Sogn (Master thesis, 2015)
      As a path to combine the world s growing energy demand with renewable green energy, in- creased use of offshore wind turbines has been seen as a viable solution. Unfortunately, the remote location and rough environment for ...
    • Force Field Identification and Positioning Control of an Autonomous Vessel using Inertial Measurement Units 

      Udjus, Guttorm (Master thesis, 2017)
