Wind turbines designed for easy installation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The costs of installation, intervention/maintenance and decommissioning of fixed bottom, founded offshore wind turbine concepts are unreasonably high when using state of the art technology. For such wind turbine concepts, ... -
Wind-induced response of an offshore wind turbine under non-neutral conditions: A comparison with Hywind Scotland
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In this study, aeroelastic simulations of a 5 MW spar wind turbine are performed by using simulated wind fields that are representative of surface layer marine atmospheric turbulence under different atmospheric stratifications. ... -
Wind-induced vibrations of a suspension bridge: A case study in full-scale
(PhD thesis UiS;326, Doctoral thesis, 2016-12-16)In 2013, the Norwegian government adopted an ambitious plan to cross the wide and deep-fjords of Western Norway and create a ferry-free coastal high- way route. This implies the construction of multiple long-span bridges ... -
Winterization and drilling operations in cold climate areas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Petroleum operations in remote locations offshore off northern Norway call for technical and operational solutions, sustainable and capable of withstanding extreme and harsh weather conditions. This paper discusses hazards, ... -
Workability over time and mechanical properties of ultra-high performance concrete.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-12-12)Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is characterized by high compressive and tensile strength along with excellent durability due to a densely packed matrix with low porosity. It has a low water-to-binder ratio (w/b) ... -
Workflow and concept study to design mixed reality assisted safety training in the wind energy sector
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Mixed reality Technology creates new environments and visualizations to teach, train, and facilitate work, either offline or remote online. The aim is to provide effective learning and training sources and reduce human ... -
WPS VS Welding Error
(Master thesis, 2023)The Norwegian petroleum adventure has brought prosperity and financed the welfare state (Ministry of Petroleum and Energy, 2021; Norsk Petroleum, 2023). The technological evolution to solve the challenges in the harsh and ... -
YUZHNO-KIRINSKOYE FIELD DEVELOPMENT METHOD SELECTION.
(Master thesis, 2021)This master thesis provides an insight into Yuzhno-Kirinskoye field development concept and includes the feasibility study for several different options. First chapter of this work includes the description of climatic ... -
Zirkonium, et alternativ til titan?
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2007, Master thesis, 2007)Zirkonium er et materiale som er polymorft og anisotropt. Faren for at fasetransformasjoner oppstår under normal drift er minimal, og tiltak kan iverksettes for å redusere risikoen ytterligere. Både titan og zirkonium har ...
