State of the art document on Validation of simulation models for ship manoeuvring
(Report, 2015-05-20)This memo contains a review of previous work on the topic validation of simulation models for ship manoeuvring. In addition, some papers describing verification, validation and accreditation in general are reviewed. Even ... -
Integrating accountability in the systems design of autonomous and remote-controlled operations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-11)In a previous paper we have suggested that the transferal of human accountability from an on-site human actor (such as the captain) to a remote human actor (such as the creator of the autonomous control system) could be ... -
Definition of the INO WINDMOOR 12 MW base case floating wind turbine
(SINTEF Ocean rapporter;OC2020 A-044, Research report, 2021-01-08)WINDMOOR is a Competence Building Project (KPN), with the main objective of improving the under-standing of loads governing the mooring system design of floating wind turbines (FWTs). As a base case, the project adopts a ... -
Arctic continental slopes sharp gradients of physical processes affect pelagic and benthic ecosystems.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-11)Continental slopes – steep regions between the shelf break and abyssal ocean – play key roles in the climatology and ecology of the Arctic Ocean. Here, through review and synthesis, we find that the narrow slope regions ... -
North sea produced water PAH exposure and uptake in early life stages of Atlantic Cod
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Produced water discharges from offshore oil and gas platforms represent a significant source of petroleum components such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) released to the ocean. High molecular weight PAHs are ... -
Current induced drag forces on cultivated sugar kelp
(Chapter, 2019-06)To obtain more knowledge of current induced drag forces on sugar kelp, towing tests with ropes containing cultivated sugar kelp was conducted. As freshwater may damage the kelp and cause changes in its mechanical response, ... -
