Simulation of S-Shaped Airfoil for a Bidirectional Tidal Stream Turbine
(Master thesis, 2022)The energy supplies in the world mostly rely on fossil fuels which are responsible for increasing the greenhouse effect and global warming by releasing carbon emissions. As global warming is a serious issue for both ... -
Slipforming - Materials effect on friction
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)Slipforming is a construction method for concrete and it is especially suited for tall constructions with simple geometry. This method have occasionally caused lifting cracks and other surface damages, due to the friction ... -
Small scale combined heat and power units using external combustion
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2013;, Master thesis, 2013-06-17)Combined heat and power plants are of increasing interest due to the rising concern over global warming as they can lower emissions, by having very higher efficiencies than traditional power plants. Implemented on a small ... -
Solar tracker
(Bachelor thesis, 2021)The global energy system is currently undergoing a significant change from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Depending on the country and its resources, one of the most efficient, reliable methods of producing energy is ... -
Span to depth ratio of continous reinforced concrete plate bridges: a parametric study.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Denne masteroppgaven omhandler trespenns slakkarmerte platebruer i betong. Oppgavens formål er å utarbeide et nytt grunnlag for bestemmelse av høyden til bruplaten og mengden armering ut fra valgte spennlengder. For å oppnå ... -
Spar-type vertical-axis wind turbines in moderate water depth: A feasibility study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)The applications of floating vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) in deep water have been proposed and studied by several researchers recently. However, the feasibility of deploying a floating VAWT at a moderate water depth ... -
Spare Part Transportation Management in the High North
(Journal article, 2013)The demanding physical conditions of the Arctic, remote location, and uncertainty regarding the travel time can both heighten the challenges related to transportation of spare part in the region. Managing to get the ... -
Spare parts management in Bohai bay
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2013;, Master thesis, 2013-04-15)Spare parts management plays a critical part in the Oil and gas (O&G) industry. Traditional asset management could not meet the requirement of present equipment. Due to the complexity of inventory plus limitation of offshore ... -
Specification of resulting microstructure from additive manufacturing by Direct Laser Deposition of SS316L-Si on stainless steel base materials
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06)The purpose of this study was to investigate the macro- and microstructural constitution of Direct Laser Deposited (DLD) SS316L-Si on stainless steel base materials. The characterisation of the deposited material was carried ... -
Spectral characteristics of surface-layer turbulence in the North Sea
(Journal article, 2017-10)According to IEC 61400-1 and IEC 61400-3 standards, the wind load on the rotor-nacelle assembly of offshore wind turbines should be estimated from the Kaimal or Mann spectral models, unless site-specific full-scale ... -
Spenningsbilde i konstruksjonsdetalj
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)Denne masteroppgaven vil representere analyser av spenningskonsentrasjoner i to spesifikke sveiste konstruksjonsdetaljer med hovedhensyn på utmattingsproblematikken. Det ene detaljen som det er gjennomført parameteranalyser ... -
Spin injection from EuS/Co multilayers into GaAs detected by polarized electroluminescence
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)We report on the successful spin injection from EuS/Co multilayers into (100) GaAs at low temperatures. The spin injection was verified by means of polarized electroluminescence (EL) emitted from AlGaAs/GaAs-based ... -
Split location prosjektgjennomføring: evaluering og forbedringstiltak
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)Denne oppgaven omhandler Split Location prosjektgjennomføring (SLP), som vil si prosjektering for ett og samme prosjekt som utføres på to eller flere lokasjoner. Aker Solutions har de siste seks årene benyttet SLP mellom ... -
Sprekkvekst og inspeksjonsplanlegging
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019)Hensikten med denne oppgaven er å undersøke behovet for inspeksjoner for å oppdage sprekkvekst i et kritisk knutepunkt på en offshore jacket underlagt syklisk bølgebelastning. Det er studert hvor ofte det er nødvendig med ... -
Stability and motion response analyses of transport with barge
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2008, Master thesis, 2008)The water has been used for transportation for ages. The barge started early to become one of the most effective methods to perform such an operation. Over the years the floating flat-bottomed structure has been developed ... -
Stability of North Sea barges
(Master thesis, 2015-05-15)Barges have long been the one of the preferred method of transportation of heavy objects at sea because of their large capacity and versatile design. This thesis addresses the main issues related to the the stability of ... -
Stability of Vessels in an Ice-free Arctic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-09)One consequence of the declining ice cover in the Arctic is increased areas of open seas. These new open sea areas lead to some challenging aspects related to ship stability. Longer fetch lengths, associated with build-up ... -
Stainless steel: Recovery of properties after exposure to detrimental phases
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2015;, Master thesis, 2015-06-12)High alloyed stainless steel provides a desirable combination of corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, being a preferred material when ductility, overall strength and resistance to harsh environments are required. ... -
