Performance analysis of redundant safety-instrumented systems subject to degradation and external demands
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Safety-instrumented systems (SISs) play a vital role in preventing hazardous events in the offshore facilities. Many of existing performance analysis of SISs are based on the constant failure rate assumption, which is ... -
Performance analysis of safety barriers against cascading failures in a battery pack
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Lithium-ion batteries have been widely employed as the principal power source in electric vehicles and other storage systems. However, some critical issues in a battery pack still exist, such as thermal failures on initial ... -
Performance analysis of safety instrumented systems against cascading failure during prolonged demand
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Cascading failures may occur in many technical systems where the failure of one component triggers successive events. Safety barriers like safety instrumented systems are installed in many industries to prevent failures ... -
Performance assessment of K-out-of-N safety instrumented systems subject to cascading failures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Safety instrumented systems often employ redundancy to enhance the ability to detect and respond to hazardous events. The use of redundancy increases the fault tolerance to single failure but remains vulnerable in case of ... -
Performance Assessment of Redundancy Strategies of Systems Subject to External Shocks
(Chapter, 2022)Engineering systems are subject to degradation due to operational conditions and usage. The systems are also subject to random external shocks that are capable of causing abrupt failures. To maintain desired system performance ... -
Performance Assessment of Safety-instrumented Systems Subject to Cascading Failures in High-demand Mode
(Chapter, 2019)Safety-instrumented systems are designed to act upon hazardous events and reinforce safety. IEC 61508 specifies two possible reliability measures of safety-instrumented systems: the average probability of failure on demand ... -
Performance Management for Parametric Building Design Generated by a Genetic Algorithm
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The paper analyzes the results of applying a genetic algorithm to generate building designs. The genetic algorithm developed by the authors uses shadow length as fitness function value to examine the impact on the building ... -
PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT USING BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE
(Master thesis, 2011)The purpose of this thesis is to develop a solution for how an effective lean performance measurement system can be developed and how the system can be supported by business intelligence. The motivation behind this exercise ... -
Performance Measurement using Deep Digital Maintenance (DDM) Concept: A Technique for Measuring "Hidden Factory"
(Master thesis, 2022)På grunn av måten konkurranse driver både kostnader og innovasjon på i dag, leter produksjonsselskaper etter alle mulige måter å minimere kostnader, redusere risiko forbundet med fysiske eiendeler, forbedre eiendelens ... -
Performance Measurement, Estimating and Control of Offshore Modification Projects
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2006:53, Doctoral thesis, 2006)The purpose of this dissertation is to describe and demonstrate the practical application of techniques of performance measurement to the control and execution of modification projects in the offshore oil industry. The ... -
Performance of dynamic safety barriers-Structuring, modelling and visualization
(Master thesis, 2014)The main objective of this master thesis is to discuss performance of dynamic safety barriers. A comprehensive literature review is performed in order to get understanding what dynamic safety barrier is. Three different ... -
Performance Supervised Plant-Wide Process Monitoring in Industry 4.0: A Roadmap
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The intensive research and development efforts directed towards large-scale complex industrial systems in the context of Industry 4.0 indicate that safety and reliability issues pose significant challenges. During online ... -
Performance Testing Real-Time Robot Communication for a Constraint-Based Robotic Welding System
(Master thesis, 2021)I denne masteroppgaven gjennomføres det en sanntid-ytelsestest for moto biblioteket. Dette er et Python bibliotek lagd for å styre Motoman roboter fra YASKAWA ved bruk av både banepunk og sanntidsstyring. Ytelsestestingen ... -
PESTOL - Framework for «Project Evaluation on Strategic, Tactical and Operational Levels»
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)The paper focuses on the development of the ex-post conceptual holistic framework for Project Evaluation on Strategic, Tactical and Operational Levels, the PESTOL model, by reviewing different definitions of project success ... -
Phase formation during heating of amorphous nickel-based bni-3 for joining of dissimilar cobalt-based superalloys
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Phase transformations and the melting range of the interlayer BNi-3 were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, which showed three stages of crystallization during heating. There were three exothermic peaks ... -
Phase Type Modelling for Approximation of the Geometric Brownian Motion
(Chapter, 2020)A geometric Brownian motion (GBM) is a continuous-time stochastic process in which the logarithm of the randomly varying quantity follows a Brownian motion with drift. The GBM allows to model degradation where the increase ... -
Phenomenological approach towards modelling the acoustic emission due to plastic deformation in metals
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Considering acoustic emission (AE) as a phenomenon reflecting the elastic energy dissipation process in deforming metals, a simple yet self-consistent model is proposed to account for the AE behaviour accompanying ... -
A phenomenological model of deformation twinning kinetics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Inspired by the classical Olson and Cohen model for martensitic phase transformations, a simple phenomenological model of the deformation twinning kinetics is proposed with account for twin-twin interactions. The model was ... -
A phenomenological model of twinning-mediated strain hardening
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)We present a model of strain-hardening in materials with twinning-mediated plasticity. While the model is largely phenomenological, it was motivated by microstructural considerations and can be claimed to be physically ... -
