Bridge aerodynamics in skew winds: Generalized buffeting load modelling and response analysis
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2022-11)This thesis deals with the modelling of wind loads on bridges. When turbulent wind blows past a bridge deck, the deck experiences fluctuating loads, i.e., buffeting loads. Most buffeting theories concern straight bridge ... -
Bridge deck aerodynamics: A case study in full-scale
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2022-04)One of the key aspects of bridge deck aerodynamics is the transformation of the incident wind flow into fluctuating surface pressures around a bridge deck. The atmospheric turbulence generates fluctuating loads on bridge ... -
Cracking Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Structures Subjected to Service Load: Experimental and Numerical Investigation
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2021-10)Cracks in reinforced concrete (RC) structures are controlled to enhance the service life, for a better aesthetic appearance, and to avoid leakages in liquid retaining structures. The most widely used crack controlling ... -
Design and Dynamic Analysis of a Novel Subsea Shuttle Tanker
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Underwater pipelines, tanker ships, and liquefied gas carriers have traditionally been employed to transport hydrocarbons between offshore oil and gas facilities and onshore locations. However, both methods come with ... -
Effect and consequence analysis of expanding PIN-technology in various types of heavy machinery
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Expanding pin systems can be applied in any joint, moveable, or fixed, in any type of machine, crane, or equipment, in almost any type of industry, globally. There are a variety of different versions of expanding pins ... -
Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Residual Stress for Structural Integrity Assessment of Proximity Girth Welds
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2023-01)Over the last decade, there has been a growing interest in the life extension of existing welded structures in offshore and renewable industry. During this phase of extension, repair of welded structures is a common practise ... -
Identifying innovation opportunities emerging from technology and business trends
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Businesses are continuously looking for opportunities to innovate. There is a gap in the literature regarding innovation models and approaches that are systematic, practical and easy to apply. This thesis addresses this ... -
Numerical Modelling and Global Response Assessment of Floating Docks towards Efficient, Safer and Autonomous Docking Operations
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Floating docks are known for their construction efficiency and operational flexibility compared to traditional graving docks. They play an important role in shipyards by serving as essential platforms for vessel construction, ... -
Safety and Emergency Response Associated with Cold Climate Marine Operations
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2020)This dissertation is developed by GMC Maritime and the University of Stavanger and is part of the industrial PhD program at the Norwegian Research Council. The aim of the work is to identify the governing mechanisms ... -
Thermal Stratification and Turbulent Wind Loading on Floating Wind Turbines
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Offshore wind is a promising clean energy alternative to fossil fuels. The wind resource at sea is considerably stronger than on land, and the offshore wind turbines (OWTs) tend to be larger. Currently, more than 160 ... -
Use of Fuel Cells to Extend Multirotor Drone Endurance
(PhD thesis UiS;, Doctoral thesis, 2021-10)Unmanned aerial systems can be used for a range of industrial applications to reduce risk, cost, and time. Fuel cell-based propulsion systems are outlined as a solution to extend mission endurance, one of the current main ...
