A new simplified method for analysis of 3D motion dynamics of axisymmetric slender bodies falling from air through water is presented. Slender-body theory for potential flow of incompressible water is combined with 2D + t theory to account for viscous cross-flow separation in the submerged phase...
Aquaculture is an industry that has developed rapidly over the past decades. Despite several hazards in the operations, emergency preparedness is not at the same level as in the rest of the maritime industry. This paper highlights some possibilities to increase the aquaculture industry’s coastal...
This paper proposes a new sliding mode-based guidance law for mobile robots in the three-dimensional space that offer strong robustness properties and intuitive tuning. The guidance law is proven to guide a vehicle to a boundary region centered in the path particle in finite time. Furthermore, it is...
Alternative feed ingredients for farmed salmon are warranted due to increasing pressure on wild fish stocks. As locally farmed blue mussels may represent an environmentally sustainable substitute with a lower carbon footprint, we aimed to test the potential and safety of substituting fish meal with...
We propose to use a conventional simulator, formulated on the topology of a coarse volumetric 3D grid, as a data-driven network model that seeks to reproduce observed and predict future well responses. The conceptual difference from standard history matching is that the tunable network parameters...
This paper introduces a methodology for abstraction of photovoltaic (PV) technologies by parametrization of relevant PV module characteristics. The proposed approach is utilized to evaluate PV projects integrated with the road infrastructure. The silicon monocrystalline and polycrystalline PV...
