      A promising time domain model for calculation of cross-flow vortex induced vibrations (VIV) is under development at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. Time domain, as oppose to frequency domain, makes it ...
    • Vortex interaction in the wake of a two- and three-bladed wind turbine 

      Bartl, Jan Michael Simon; Hansen, Thomas; Kuhn, Wolf Ludwig; Mühle, Franz Volker; Sætran, Lars Roar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The vortex interaction in the wake behind a two- and three-bladed model scale wind turbine is investigated. The two rotors have equal solidity, and produce similar power and thrust at the design tip speed ratio. Phase-averaged ...
    • Vortex spin valve on a topological insulator 

      Amundsen, Morten; Hugdal, Henning Goa; Sudbø, Asle; Linder, Jacob (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Spin-valve structures are usually associated with the ability to modify the resistance of electrical currents. We here demonstrate a profoundly different effect of a spin-valve. In combination with a topological insulator ...
    • Vortex system around a step cylinder in a turbulent flow field 

      Tian, Cai; Jiang, Fengjian; Pettersen, Bjørnar; Andersson, Helge Ingolf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The vortex system around the step surface of a step cylinder with a diameter ratio D/d=2 at Reynolds number (ReD) 3900 was investigated by directly solving the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations. Formation mechanisms ...
    • Vortex-induced vibrations of a vertical riser with time-varying tension 

      Thorsen, Mats Jørgen; Sævik, Svein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Numerical simulations of a vertical tensioned riser in a sheared flow are performed, where the riser top end oscillates sinusoidally in the vertical direction. The oscillating top-end motion causes tension variations and ...
    • Vote Selling Resistant Voting 

      Boyd, Colin Alexander; Haines, Thomas Edmund; Rønne, Peter (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Creating a secure (purely) remote voting scheme which prevents active vote selling is an open problem. Observing that vote selling has a primarily economic motivation, we propose a novel approach to the problem which ...
    • Voter responses to refugee arrivals: Effects of settlement policy 

      Finseraas, Henning; Strøm, Marte (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      In this paper we leverage a sudden shift in refugee settlement policy to study the electoral consequences of refugee settlements. After the 2013 Norwegian parliamentary election, the newly elected right-wing government ...
