Inertial Navigation — Theory and Applications
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:38, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Navigation is defined as the process of estimating the six degrees of freedom. We have seen an increased demand for navigation the last decade, and important reasons for the growth are the increased availability of low ... -
Inertial Sensors for Risk-Based Redundancy in Dynamic Positioning
(Chapter, 2017)In this paper we present an alternative configuration of sensors, position and heading reference systems for dynamically positioned (DP) vessels. The approach uses a sensor structure based on low-cost inertial measurements ... -
Infinite-Dimensional Observer for Process Monitoring in Managed Pressure Drilling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Utilizing flow rate and pressure data in and out of the mud circulation loop provides a driller with real-time trends for the early detection of well-control problems that impact the drilling efficiency. This paper presents ... -
Inflight Estimation of Airflow Variables, Wind Velocities and Aerodynamic Coefficients for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:349, Doctoral thesis, 2018)This thesis focuses on the estimation of wind velocities, angle of attack and aerodynamic coefficients for small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and in addition, the use of these estimates for two different applications. ... -
Influence of Viscosity and Non-Linearities in Predicting Motions of a Wind Energy Offshore Platform in Regular Waves
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Motion prediction of floating bodies in waves represents one of the most challenging problems in naval hydrodynamics. The solution of the seakeeping problem involves the study of complex non-linear wave-body interactions ... -
Influence of Weight-on-Bit on Percussive Drilling Performance
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)A phenomenological model for percussive drilling systems is proposed in this paper to explain the experimentally demonstrated existence of an optimal weight-on-bit (WOB), for which the rate of penetration (ROP) is maximized. ... -
Information model for functional safety
(Research report, 2023)A main objective of this report has been to contribute toward further digitalisation and standardisation of the petroleum industry. In particular, the report explores: • How ideas from Industry 4.0 and the AAS (asset ... -
Information-driven robotic sampling in the coastal ocean
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Efficient sampling of coastal ocean processes, especially mechanisms such as upwelling and internal waves and their influence on primary production, is critical for understanding our changing oceans. Coupling robotic ... -
Infrared Object Detection & Tracking in UAVs
(Master thesis, 2013)The present thesis describes the design and implementation of a small, light weight and power efficient payload system for the use in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The primary application of the payload system is that ... -
Infrastructure for Collecting and Analysing near Real-Time Data from Several Water Meters Using Wireless M-Bus
(Master thesis, 2021)Bruken av smarte vannmålere blir mer populært, og flere norske kommuner, inkludert Trondheim, ønker at det tas i bruk for alle husstander. Wireless Meter-Bus (wM-Bus) har vist seg å være en populær standard i denne prosessen ... -
Inhibits and Overrides: Applications Seen in a Safety Perspective
