Willingness to Pay for Preventing an Oil Spill in Vestfjorden: The Role of Use versus Non-Use Values
(Masteroppgave/UIS-SV-HH/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-14)In this study the values that could be lost if an environmental damage occurs in Vestfjorden are estimated. The overall research question is: “What is the willingness to pay for preventing an oil spill in Vestfjorden?”. ... -
Willingness-to-pay for Crime Control Programs in Norway: Preferences and Attitudes towards Crime and Crime Reduction.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-SV-HH/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-06)In this pilot study, we use the contingent valuation (CV) method to investigate Norwegians willingness to pay (WTP) for crime control programs. The CV method is well known in the environmental economics literature, and has ... -
Wind and Vibration Measurements on the Lysefjord Bridge
(Master thesis, 2022)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 coherence measurement by a single pulsed Doppler wind lidar
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)A single pulsed Doppler wind lidar, deployed at the FINO1 platform in the North Sea, has been used to monitor the lateral and vertical coherence of the along-wind component. To maximize the sampling frequency of the ... -
Wind Fatigue Analysis - Evaluation of Different Methods and Software Alternatives
(Master thesis, 2022)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 ... -

Wind Flow Simulation over Fish Farm Feed Barge
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-06-15)There are approximate over 1000 fish farms in Norway, where half are connected to the grid and the rest are driven by diesel generators. Fish farms use large air compressors to feed the fish, which creates high power ... -
Wind Profile Usage in Wind Farm Installation Campaign Simulations
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)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 ... -
Wind resource analyses at Westermost Rough Wind Farm
(Master thesis, 2023)A transition towards renewable energy sources is a pressing concern for society and government officials, and the offshore wind industry is more relevant than ever. The industry has the potential to meet Europe’s energy ... -
Wind tunnel CFD simulation by using OpenFOAM
(Master thesis, 2023)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 ... -
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 ... -
