Experimental Investigation of Silicon Dust Explosions in Pipes
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)Metallurgical silicon and its alloys are essential in several industries, such as solar energy, automotive, aerospace, and steel production. However, silicon dust, generated during silicon production, processing, and ... -
Experimental Investigation of Silicon Dust Explosions in Pipes
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)This thesis presents an experimental study of silicon dust explosions in different pipe configurations. The experimental configuration involved a 32-litre explosion vessel connected to pipes of different dimensions, ... -
Factors influencing interannual variability of Belg rain in Ethiopia
(Master thesis, 2023-03-01) -
Future Abrupt Changes in Winter Barents Sea Ice Area
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)The Barents Sea is an area of strong anthropogenic winter sea ice loss that is superimposed by pronounced internal variability on interannual to multidecadal timescales. This internal variability represents a source of ... -
High Voltage Direct Current Transmission

High Voltage Laboratory Development: An in-depth Description and Report on the Process of Fabricating a Faraday Cage
(Master thesis, 2022-12-16)This thesis examines the quality of protection a Faraday cage provides against electromagnetic fields. The necessary theory to examine and calculate the shielding effectiveness of a Faraday cage, discuss obtained results ... -
How effective is the Mann turbulence model in predicting horizontal turbulence from vertical data?
(Master thesis, 2024-06-03)Offshore wind turbines are approaching 300 m.a.s.l., where the dynamics of the atmospheric turbulence remain unclear. Present understanding is limited, with direct measurements above 100 m from the sea surface being scarce. ... -
Hydrogen Consumption by Halophilic Microorganisms - Implications for Underground Hydrogen Storage
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)Underground Hydrogen Storage (UHS) in reservoirs and caverns is a possible solution for large-scale and long-term storage of hydrogen (H2) in the subsurface. As the cost of tech- nology installation and electricity from ... -
Hydropower Production Scheduling using Stochastisc Dual Dynamic Programming subject to environmental constraints
(Master thesis, 2019-06-22)Oppgaven utforsker vannkraftproduksjonsplanlegging i Bergsdalen vassdraget, styrt av BKK, ved hjelp av Stokastisk Dual Dynamisk Programmering. Systemet er under et sett med miljørestriksjoner, innført av NVE, som utfordrer ... -
Idealized Modeling of the North Icelandic Jet
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)The North Icelandic Jet (NIJ) is a crucial component of the lower limb of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, supplying one-third to one-half of the overflow water transport through Denmark Strait, including ... -
Ignition of high-pressure hydrogen releases – Experimental study of impinging and non-impinging releases through a fast-acting valve, with and without a burst disc downstream of the valve
(Master thesis, 2021-09-14)A wide consensus of climate research indicates that anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions affect the climate and causes the global mean temperature to rise compared to preindustrial levels. International treaties such as ... -
Impacts on carbon budgets of increased use og Norwegian forest resources for energy
(Master thesis, 2019-06-19)When forests are logged for heat and electricity production, emissions from burning of the biomass are not accounted for in national greenhouse gas reporting to the climate convention. This would have been correct if a ... -
Investigating genesis and early development of Arctic cyclones using an isentropic analysis
(Master thesis, 2024-06-10)Cyclones are frequently found in the Arctic and can have wide-ranging impacts on the region. Nevertheless, few studies have focused on the development of cyclones originating in the Arctic, in contrast to the extensively ... -
Investigating the Southern Ocean Biogeochemical Divide
(Master thesis, 2024-06-03)The Southern Ocean plays a crucial role in Earth's climate and biogeochemical (BGC) cycles due to its unique features, such as strong westerly winds, intense ocean circulation, and its high-latitude location. This study ... -
Investigation of the dynamic response of a spar FOWT, and its sensitivity to variations in draft
(Master thesis, 2020-06-30)The objective of this thesis is to investigate how the dynamic properties of a spar supported FOWT change when the draft is reduced, and what draft is needed in order to support a 10 MW wind turbine. Design solutions of ...
