Designing Composite Adaptive Propeller Blades with Passive Bend–Twist Deformation for Periodic-Load Variations Using Multiple Design Concepts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Four plausible design concepts are applied together to investigate composite bend–twist propeller-blade designs that show high twisting per bending deflection. The design concepts are first explained on a simplified blade ... -
Designing vortices in pipe flow with topography-driven Langmuir circulation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)We present direct numerical simulation of a mechanism for creating longitudinal vortices in pipe flow, compared with a model theory. By furnishing the pipe wall with a pattern of crossing waves, secondary flow in the form ... -
Detection of mooring line failures using Dynamic Hypothesis Testing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-07-01)This article proposes a novel methodology for the detection of mooring line breakage in thruster assisted position mooring (PM) systems, when no measurements of the tensions on the mooring lines are available. For dynamic ... -
Determinants of airborne benzene evaporating from fresh crude oils released into seawater
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-03)Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes, naphthalene and n-hexane evaporating from a thin oil film was measured for 30 min in a small-scale test system at 2 and 13 °C and the impact of physicochemical properties on airborne ... -
Determining spatial feed distribution in sea cage aquaculture using an aerial camera platform
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-11)Within this paper we describe an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) based method to estimate the spatial feed pellet distribution in salmon fish-cages and exploit it within a case study to determine the radial pellet distribution ... -
Development and assessment of novel technologies improving the fishing operation and on board processing with respect to environmental impact and fish quality (DANTEQ)
(SINTEF Fiskeri og havbruk reports;A27309, Research report, 2015)This is a final report of the project DANTEQ (2010-2015). Through this project new competence and new methods for optimal handling of whitefish onboard with respect to raw material quality and energy efficiency have been ... -
Development and verification of modeling practice for numerical estimation of wind loads on offshore floating structures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Mean wind load on a semi-submersible rig and an FPSO was investigated by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for the modeling practice developed in Reproducible Offshore CFD JIP. The modeling practice is benchmarked ... -
Development of a hybrid simulation framework for the production planning process in the atlantic salmon supply chain
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The farmed salmon supply chain has a highly complex and integrated structure, where activities occur both in the sea and on land. Due to this complexity, the supply chain needs appropriate decision-support tools to aid the ... -
Development of a Simulator Training Platform for Fish Farm Operations
(ASME Proceedings | Structures, Safety and Reliability;OMAE2017-62023, Chapter, 2017-06)The Norwegian aquaculture industry is accident prone compared to other industries and employees report a high number of near-accidents. Furthermore, escape of fish is a challenge for the industry. There is a potential for ... -
Development of an advanced, efficient and green intermodal system with autonomous inland and short sea shipping - AEGIS
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The European maritime transport policy recognizes the importance of the waterborne transport systems as key elements for sustainable growth in Europe. A major goal is to transfer more than 50% of road transport to rail or ... -
Developmental effects in fish embryos exposed to oil dispersions – the impact of crude oil micro-droplets
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-09)During accidental crude oil spills and permitted discharges of produced water into the marine environment, a large fraction of naturally occurring oil components will be contained in micron-sized oil droplets. Toxicity is ... -
Dialogmøte om teknologi for trenging av fisk i merd
(SINTEF Fiskeri og havbruk rapporter;A24309, Research report, 2013-04-19)SINTEF Fiskeri og havbruk arrangerte den 19. mars 2013, i samarbeid med Fiskeri- og havbruksnæringens forskningsfond (FHF), et dialogmøte med fokus på teknologi for trenging av fisk i merd. Under møtet ble status for ... -
Diet rather than temperature determines the biochemical composition of the ragworm Hediste diversicolor (OF Müller, 1776) (Annelida: Nereidae)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The polychaete Hediste diversicolor is known to recycle side streams from aquaculture and biogas production. We conducted a feeding experiment to evaluate whether rearing temperature or mixtures of these two side streams ... -
Dietary and seasonal variability in trophic relations at the base of the North Sea pelagic food web revealed by stable isotope and fatty acid analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-11)A two-dimensional biomarker approach including fatty acids and stable isotopes of seston and copepods was applied to examine how the variability at the base of the food web affects trophic interactions between primary ... -
Different topologies of natural vortex dislocations in Mode A wake
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The mode A wake behind a circular cylinder at Reynolds number 200 was simulated by directly solving the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations. A more detailed investigation of different topologies of natural vortex ... -
Dimensioning and techno-economic-assessment of thermal energy storages in the food processing industry using energy load profiles
(Science et technique du froid;, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2023)The food industry is a major consumer of electrical energy, which is required for cooling, freezing, drying and heating. Due to the production characteristics, high load peaks often occur in food processing. This leads not ... -
