Numerical study of two typical Norwegian gravity-based fish cages with different cage shapes and weights
(Master thesis, 2021)Fish cages usually have net deformation in marine environments, and this deformation can reduce the cultivation volume of the fish cage and thus reduce the fish welfare. Hence, it is necessary to understand the structural ... -
Numerical study on controller of offshore wind turbine and its effect on turbine loads
(Master thesis, 2021)The primary objective of this thesis is to evaluate the controller behavior of a large-scale wind turbine and investigate how the controller design can affect the fatigue damage for the turbine. In addition, it is interesting ... -
Numerical study on deployment of subsea template using coupled and uncoupled model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)This study compares deployment of a subsea template simulated as a coupled model and as an uncoupled model in the time domain simulation software Orcaflex. Defining vessel motion as prescribed simplifies the model and will ... -
Numerical study on gap resonance coupled to vessel motions relevant to side-by-side offloading
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-07-13)Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) systems are large facilities dealing with offshore storage, processing, and transport of natural gas from the ocean basin. These enormous vessels allow the natural gas to be produced ... -
Numerical Study on Offshore Lifting Operations of a Subsea Spool
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06)Within the scope of marine operations, offshore lifting operations present significant challenges due to the instability and harshness of environmental conditions. Therefore, lifting operations become expensive and risky. ... -
Numerical study on splash zone crossing with GRP protection cover.
(Master thesis, 2022)For oil and gas fields moving further offshore, it has been more common to use a subsea production system or a combination of rig and subsea structures. These subsea structures must be overtrawlable if they are not marked ... -
Numerical study on splash zone crossing with subsea template and ROV
(Master thesis, 2021)External loads on a free-floating vessel affect the vessel responses in waves. DNV’s recommended practice for modeling and analysis of marine operations [1] categorizes lifting of an object above 1-2% of the vessel ... -
Numerical study on structural responses of gravity-based fish cages
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2020;, Master thesis, 2020)The location of a fish farm is moving towards more exposed locations due to spatial and environmental concerns. As the fish farm moves to open seas, the structure of the fish farm would undergo increased environmental loads ... -
Numerical study on the deployment of a subsea template
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-06-30)Subsea templates are normally transported to the installation site on the deck of a crane vessel. After being lifted off from the deck, the template is 1) over-boarded from the initial location to the target position by the ... -
Numerical study on thermal effects in an electric subsea robotic actuator
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-07-07)A remotely operated vehicle (ROV) is equipped with two robotic manipulators. Current manipulators are hydraulically actuated. The industry has uncovered the potential in replacing hydraulic-based technology with its ... -
Numerical study on vibratory extraction of offshore wind turbine monopile foundations under sandy seabed condition
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The wind industry has experienced a rapid growth in Europe over the last decades. The early generation turbines were designed for a life of 20–25 years. Decommissioning of offshore wind turbines is becoming more important ... -
Numerical treatment of two-phase flow in capillary heterogeneous porous media by finite-volume approximations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)This paper examines two-phase flow in porous media with heterogeneous capillary pressure functions. This problem has received very little attention in the literature, and constitutes a challenge for numerical discretization, ... -
Nurse educators' suggestions for a digital educational resource suitable for undergraduate student nurses' placement studies: Qualitative empirical research
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Aims To explore and describe nurse educators' suggestions regarding a digital educational resource addressing quality in placement studies for first-year student nurses in nursing homes. Design A qualitative, explorative, ... -
Nurses' remaining in everyday nursing practice - A comprehensive model.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-07)Previous theoretical and empirical models of nurses’remaining in everyday nursing practice are explained by elements such as intent to stay and desire to stay. This study provides a model that expands or expresses an ... -
Nurses´ experience with presenteeism and the potential consequences on patient safety: a qualitative study among nurses at out-of-hours emergency primary care facilities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Abstract Objectives This study aimed to gain new insight and knowledge on out-of-hours emergency primary care nurses’ experience of presenteeism in their workplace and their outlook on the impact they recognised the ... -
