The need for simultaneously decreasing carbon emissions and increasing operational profit motivates gas turbine and gas compressor operators to understand, minimize and control performance deterioration. Fouling is one of ...

Harsh weather conditions such as wind and icing are severe debilitators to the operations of unmanned aerial vehicles in terms of performance, safety and reliability. Forecasts of atmospheric parameters in the mission area ...

Offshore kranoperasjoner er ofte kritiske operasjoner under krevende forhold som krever mye av kranoperatøren. Dette gjør at behovet for teknologiske løsninger er svært høy. Svingende laster er en sikkerhetsbekymring som ...

This report presents two optimization problems, where three cost-functions are suggested for each. The goal for the first optimization problem is to find a time variant look-ahead distance which improves the performance ...

This thesis is a contribution to the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) project at the Department of Engineering Cybernetics, which is a project where contributions from master students and Phd students will result in an ...

Performance decay due to asset degradation is an important constraint in industrial production and therefore needs to be actively considered. This paper focuses on short-term scheduling for multiproduct batch processes ...

Recent years advances within well deployment and instrumentation technology offers huge potentials for increased oil recovery from reservoir production. Wells can now be equipped with controllable valves at reservoir depth, ...

The recent worldwide effort on the environmental issue has led to new regulations on greenhouse gases emissions (GHG), both for land and marine applications. Nowadays, the extensive electrification of transportation systems ...

Thrust allocation is the part in a dynamic positioning system that is responsible for giving set-points to the different actuators on a vessel in order to track a desired generalized force, which is the set of surge, sway ...
