Since the 1990s, there has been an increasing trend to repair corroded or eroded pipelines, conveying oil, gas or water, by using fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. This relatively new repair technique involves ...

The objective of the thesis is to discuss the weather sensitivity of maritime activities, inter alia, with respect to the aspects of passage planning, load plan-making, and ship maneuvering. As maritime activities represent ...

The Lysefjord Bridge is a suspension bridge located in the western part of Norway. Since 2013 it has been used as a full-scale wind engineering laboratory and is fitted with sonic anemometers, tri-axial accelerometers, ...

Wind induced fatigue damage affects most slender structures such as flare booms and bridges in offshore environment. Due to the irregular and dynamic nature of wind, wind loading might cause structures to vibrate near the ...

Simulation tools are used in the wind industry to analyse and understand installation campaigns for strategic planning purposes. These tools use vertical wind profiles to estimate wind speeds at various heights. Where these ...

Aerodynamics and fluid dynamics are used in many fields, such as aerospace, marine, and oil & gas. All these industries require precise results from experiments, tests, and simulations. This is because it is connected to ...

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 ...

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 ...
