(Master thesis, 2014)Polymer science is the underlying topic of this master's thesis, and the main scope is to develop and deploy models for on-line optimization and control for polymerization reactors. Specifically, free-radical emulsion ... -
A New Static Estimator Based on Self-Optimizing Theory
(Master thesis, 2011)This thesis compares the performance of the new static model based esti- mator proposed by Skogestad et al. (2011) with least squares (LS), principal component regression (PCR), and partial least squares (PLS) estimators ... -
A Numerical Study of Newtonian and Non-Newtonian Fluid Flows Described in Curvilinear Coordinates
(Master thesis, 2021)En laminær, stasjonær strømning uten varmeoverføring i en kanal over et utvidet trinn (backwards facing step), ble løst ved bruk av finite volume method. Upwind differencing scheme og SIMPLE-algoritmen ble bruk til å ... -
A Parallelized Global Optimization Method for use in Parameter Estimation
(Master thesis, 2018)When modeling biological systems with a bottom-up approach, the system parameters need to be calibrated for the model behavior to match that of the physical system. The problem is typically presented in the form of an ... -
A Performance and Kinetic Study of PEI-Impregnated Mesoporous Silica Spheres for Low-Temperature Carbon Capture.
(Master thesis, 2020)Karbon-fangst av røykgass er en av de mest lovende teknologiene for å bekjempe de alltid økende utslippene av drivhusgasser. Adsorpsjon av CO2 fra røykgass ved bruk av effektive solide sorbenter har vist mange fordeler, ... -
A study of the formation mechanism of calcium naphtenate deposits by using the axisymmetric drop shape analysis technique
(Master thesis, 2018)New batches of ARN were extracted with a yield of 15-17 % and with a purity of 92-93 %. The axisymmetric drop shape analysis (ADSA) technique was used on different samples of ARN, xylene and asphaltenes to study the ... -
A Techno-Economic Evaluation of Solvents in Biogas Upgrading
(Master thesis, 2023)Antropogene klimagassutslipp er anerkjent som hoved ̊arsaken til globale klimaendringer. For å begrense virkningene av klimaendringer er integrasjonen av fornybare energikilder i energisammensetningen avgjørende. Biometan ... -
Adaptive Control for Severe Slugging Mitigation
(Master thesis, 2015)Offshore production facilities using pipeline-riser systems are experiencing terrain-induced cyclic flow instability due to its pipeline configuration and multiphased flow. The cyclic flow instability has been referred to ... -
