...improve prediction of forces and response of vessels operating at zero or low speed in heavy seas. In these circumstances linear theory is insufficient. Work will be done to develop methods to represent non-linear forces and motions. Special problems such as broaching and capsizing in following seas,...
...identify limitations and domain for application of biomass control instruments in sea cages, with a main focus on use of the technical solutions and the implementation in the sea cage context. A successful result for the measurement is a result of the technologies capacities and fish distribution, combined...
...measurement and sensing capabilities will promote the next innovation in the petrochemical industry. Following the shale oil revolution, the next breakthrough will be the generation of ideas about how to improve oil recovery efficiency and automation, which in turn will lead to cost savings and less expensive...
...batteries with improved properties at a lower cost and with reduced carbon footprint, significant research efforts are needed. We must develop both the battery technology itself as well as the associated materials, from extracting and processing raw materials, and producing active battery materials, to developing...
...technologies derived from micro-electronics, and etching out microscopic channels and pillars with nanometre precision. Photo: Trilobite Microsystems AS. The separation process is facilitated by applying the principles of hydrodynamics. Water, blood and other types of fluid flow around the elliptically-shaped...
...conics, quadrics and cubics in a very efficient and robust way. Among other things this will necessitate to adapt several symbolic-numeric algorithms in Numerical Linear Algebra to the study of generalized eigenvalue problems on polynomial matrices derived from resultant-like matrices and to understand...
...report writing and journal publications; important as these are. WP5 will make the process of getting evidence into action a key part of our research and dissemination process. This work package is about dissemination but not just in the form of presenting conference papers, report writing and journal publications;...
SINTEF and the South Korean research institute Korea Institute of Industrial Technology (KITECH) have signed a memorandum of understanding regarding collaboration. Multiphase transport of oil and gas is one of the areas of mutual interest. KITECH President Kyoung-Hwan Na brought SINTEF a gilded model...
...electrical infrastructure, and a good system integration. SINTEF develops technology and solutions to solve these challenges, which are absolutely essential for the success of offshore wind. Our projects lay the foundation for a profitable offshore wind development in Norway, and deliver technology that...
...minerals and critical raw materials you need, and at the same time do it in a sustainable way that takes into account the environment, nature and climate? Mineral extraction involves large land use and creates pollution in the form of noise, greenhouse gases, vibrations, dust, chemicals and surplus materials...
...project will make the battery production more affordable and more environmentally friendly. The batteries will be safer and more effective. To gain the targets of reducing the greenhouse gas emission by at least 55 percent of the 1990-level by 2030, and for the EU to achieve climate neutrality by 2050, emissions...
Connecting energy systems over large geographical areas and exploiting the synergy between energy carriers can have enormous benefits if they are planned and operated as a whole. This enable intermittent renewable energy source and other energy forms to be used more effectively, which will result in...
Vertical-equilibrium modeling was conducted using two variants of the Sleipner benchmark model [1], and using original as well as modified input properties (permeability, porosity, and CO2 density). This modeling work demonstrates that Sleipner's flow-dynamics can be adequately captured using a Darcy-based...
...aircraft during take-off and landing. The objective is both to maintain the level of safety and to improve the capacity of airports. During take-off and landing, strong vortices are produced in the air on both sides of large aircraft because of the pressure difference between the upper and lower sides of the...
...offers several pre and post conference tours with Hurtigruten (Coastal Express) and a pre conference tour to Svalbard/Spitsbergen. You may book your plane tickets to and from Tromsø with them. Also, you find pointers below to general information for a memorable extended stay. Pre and post conference tours...
...were tailored to the challenges addressed and the available computational resources. Consequently different shape modelling paradigms were employed within the different application domains and different systems. The need for communicating shape models within and between organizations has lead to standardization...
...advanced 3D and rich-media technology. This is no longer the case. Computer games drive the evolution of 3D technology aimed at improved visual effects, but with little or no connection to the underlying physics of natural objects or human-made artefacts. Advances in both mathematical theory and computational...
Digital twins and control technology have the potential to markedly reduce the levelised cost of electricity for wind farms at sea. Predictive maintenance can help wind farm owners to avoid breakdowns by carrying out maintenance tasks at the most optimal time. Improvements in control algorithms will...
...low levels of sulphur and nitrogen oxides. This would result in lower local air pollution. Photo: Thor Nielsen Branches, tops, lopwood and brushwood that are left in felled areas after the timber has been extracted are now set to become more than just an irritation to hikers and berry-pickers. The aim...
...interaction between myself and this iPad which does not require me to touch the display”, says Petter Risholm at SINTEF ICT. The basic technology has been around for several years, and he is now working with his colleague Jens Thielemann to extend the function to enable them to select and move objects on the...
