Deterministic flood control using MPC on the Kragerø waterways
(Master thesis, 2015-11-06)The Kragerø Waterways consist of 5 power plants downstream after Lake Toke, Dalsfos is the first of these power plants. As a deterministic flood control of Lake Toke and Dalsfos there has been designed a MPC. The MPC uses ... -
Detonations in fuel-oxygen mixtures
(Master thesis, 2015-09-18)A brief literature study was carried out to learn more about detonations, deflagrations, shock waves and critical tube diameters. A comprehensive experimental test rig was assembled based on an earlier test rig. The rig ... -
Development of a CPFD model-based technique to optimize feed pellets transfer systems in fish farms
(Master thesis, 2022)Erosion impact and pellet breakage predictions due to high velocities during pneumatic transport is a cause of concern in the fish farming industry, as it poses a threat to the pipe integrity; leading to increased cost of ... -
Development of machine learning model for CO2 capture plants to predict solvent degradation
(Master thesis, 2022)Increasing average temperature of the earth has significantly influenced human’s life that many efforts have been carried out to cut the major sources of rising temperature. Among all, emissions and specifically carbon ... -
Development of Prototype for Registration of Road Data
(Master thesis, 2016)The main goal of this project is to develop a prototype to register data to the National Road Data Bank, NRDB (In Norwegian: NVDB). The NRDB is a database consisting of information about the road network. The data connected ... -
