The petroleum sector is a safety-critical sector that is increasingly investing in automation and remote operation technologies to increase the safety and efficiency of its processes. For a safe and resilient transition, the petroleum sector would benefit from integration of human factors approaches...
This paper presents a DC-link voltage controller for fulfilling the post-fault active power recovery requirements imposed to inverter-based resources (IBRs) by modern grid codes such as IEEE 2800. The proposed controller is designed for gridfollowing IBRs and avoids windup during severe transients...
Hvis det blåser godt, produserer Norges største vindkraftpark 1 TWh i året. Samtidig kan vi redusere energibruken i norske bygg med hele 42 TWh årlig uten naturinngrep, konflikter eller lange konsesjonsprosesser. ...
Conceptual design of novel efficient hydrogen production processes is essential to realizing a future clean energy scenario. Traditional approaches to process design involve detailed modelling of unit operations followed by simulation and optimization steps. However, several implicit assumptions may...
Design and optimization of Heat Exchanger Networks (HENs) is well established and has been heavily applied in the process industries since its pioneering period in the 1970s and 1980s. While temperature and thermal energy (heat) obviously are key elements in process plants and power stations...
Sanntrål er et samarbeidsprosjekt mellom FHF, Scantrol Deep Vision, Nord- nes og SINTEF. Dette dokumentet beskriver metodene for databehandling, maskinlæring og algoritmeutvikling som inngår i AP3 for automatisk de- teksjon og størrelsesestimering av reker i stereobilder fra CamSounder- sensoren...
The partial factor method in structural codes ensures safety but may compromise efficiency. Reliability-based code calibration addresses this limitation. This paper examines the load partial factors in fib MC 2020, which, unlike the Eurocodes, differentiates factors for various load types in both...
This paper addresses the challenges of reusing structural components from existing buildings, a strategy that offers significant environmental benefits but is hindered by high costs. One way to improve this, is efficient deconstruction planning, what can be improved by robots. The paper presents a...
The Norwegian Sirkbygg project investigates the design for disassembly of prefabricated concrete com-ponents as a strategy to reduce the environmental impact of constructions. In the project, a mock-up of a building structure was constructed and disassembled with the objective to identify challenges...
Abstract: The operation of global manufacturing network is challenging due to the complexity in product and information flow, diversity in sites, localization and processes and the information processing needed for control. Thus information technology has to be developed to cope with this complexity...
To survive in competitive environments, companies must be able to deliver new products and services to the market. Creativity is a key element in this product development process. This paper is a case study of the use and application of a creative methodology and creativity techniques in six...
Hollow glass microspheres (HGM) are widely used as fillers in composite materials including paints and plastics. Further, due to their high reflectivity, an approach involving HGM application on Arctic sea ice surfaces has been considered as a measure to reduce ice loss and thus help mitigate...
