Experimental study of relative permittivity of atmospheric ice
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013-01-01)Atmospheric icing on onshore and offshore structures is problematic, if we don’t detect and remove it. Despite of various ice detection techniques, capacitor based ice sensing technique is interesting one, as it is based on dielectric properties of material. This technique of measuring icing event is simple and cost- effective. Based on the dielectric concept, an experi mental ... -

Parabolic reflector for focusing of underwater acoustic waves
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-15)Kongsberg Maritime has produced a transponder placed on the seabed designed for receiving and transmitting sound waves from vessels and ROVs. The soundwaves contain data regarding depth and location, and can be transformed to energy thus increasing the transponder battery lifetime. The transponder can only receive a small amount of energy, since its receiving area is small. This project aims to ... -
Optimization of the mass of a sandwich plate that TAM is producing
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-15)In this report the possibility to optimize the mass of a sandwich plate that TAM produces have been reviewed.

Genetic algorithms (GA) for adaptable design
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-13)This thesis discusses the process of implementing and testing of a creative web element design system using a combination of genetic algorithms and K-nearest neighbor classification. Classification will be used as a learning mechanism to give the system the ability to absorb quality measures in regards to visual aesthetics, and utilize this knowledge to evaluate generated designs. In addition, some ... -
A study of hydro and pumped storage hydropower in Northern Norway
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-15)"The role of renewable sources of energy in combating climate change cannot be over-emphasized. Profound measures taken especially by the European Union (EU) in reducing global rising temperatures has seen massive development of renewable sources of energy such as solar and wind. This strategic plan taken by the EU has led to the an increase in national efforts to promote further development of ... -
Analysis and Optimization of Sandwich Panels. Final report.
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-15)"The first part of this project, are general about sandwich structures. A sandwich construction, consist of two plate outsides (facings) glued to a core in the middle. Sandwiches are used in construction that must have a low weight, but a high stiffness. This indicated racing cars, aeroplane, ship shelters. To understand a sandwich construction, the basis, is to understand the sandwich beam. The are ... -
First aid equipment for use in cold climate environment: stretcher
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-15)"There is a need for a stretcher, which can also function as a sledge, especially for rescue missions in arctic climate, as the extraction point may only be accessible by people by foot or on skies. Existing solutions have some flaws, and some are not specifically designed for arctic conditions. The task is to develop a multi-purpose stretcher, operable by two members of the rescue team. In ... -

Subsumption architecture applied to flight control using composite rotations
(Peer reviewed; Tidsskriftartikkel; Journal article, 2016-03-19)In this paper the subsumption theory is applied to flight control through composite rotations where multiple tasks can be defined as simple rotations. The tasks can then be arranged as a hierarchy, where the primary task is always fully pursued, and conflicting lower level tasks are removed by the primary rotation. The concept is applied to a group of uavs that move through an urban terrain while ... -
A Decoupled Approach for Flight Control
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016)A decoupling method for flight control is presented that greatly simplifies the controller design. By approximating the higher order derivatives of the angle of attack and sideslip, it enables a rotation controller and a speed controller to be derived independently of each other, and thus gives access to a vast number of controller solutions derived for general classes of rotational and translational ...
