  1. 1. Navigating Sustainability : A case study exploring alternative energy sources for maritime shipping

    University essay from KTH/Industriell ekonomi och organisation (Inst.)

    Author : Simon Nordenskiöld; [2024]
    Keywords : Maritime shipping; Alternative energy sources; Alternative fuels; Hydrogen-based fuels; Sustainable shipping; Electrofuels; Electro-methanol; Liquid Hydrogen; Electro-ammonia; Sails; Wind; Technological Innovation System; Sjöfart; Alternativa energikällor; Alternativa bränslen; Vätebaseradebränslen; Hållbar sjöfart; Elektrobränslen; Elektrometanol; Flytande väte; Elektroammoniak; Segel; Vind; Technological Innovation Systems;

    Abstract : This master thesis studies alternative energy sources for maritime shipping in Sweden. With current climate goals, and a need for change, the maritime sector currently undergoes intense transitions. For shipping companies to lower their carbon footprint, the need to replace non decarbonised fuels is hence critical. READ MORE

  3. 2. To report or not to report: What happens when middle managers receive bad news about safety issues?

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : Søren Christian Rossé Segel; Dean Wihnan; [2023]
    Keywords : Middle Manager; reporting; psychological safety; organisational learning; trust; accountability; FLMU06; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : Fascinated and often frustrated, it has often been that the flow of critical safety information is not as fluid and transparent as one would consider reasonable (Westhuizen & Stanz, 2017). This notional concept of ‘reporting’ has been researched and studied from many different industries and perspectives but has yet to answer, why individuals and groups lack the culture necessary to report what is wrong or not working related to safety.

  4. 3. Resonance Mitigation in the Attitude Control of a Flexible Large Solar Sail

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Jonas Linnros; [2023]
    Keywords : Resonance; Control theory; Mechanics; Solar sail; PID; Space; Resonans; Reglerteknik; Mekanik; Solsegel; PID; Rymd;

    Abstract : This project is about the design process of a resonancemitigating algorithm for a large solar sail. The solar sail isa structure made up by four long booms in a cross patternwith suspended sails between the edges of the booms. Thespacecraft in this report is controlled using smaller rotatingsails at each tip of the booms. READ MORE

  5. 4. Sensor system for pressure measuring over a sail : Construction and implementation of a sail pressure measuring system

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Filip Palm; [2022]
    Keywords : Oceanbird; Sail pressure; KTH; pressure sensor system; Environment; Oceanbird; tryckmätningssystem; miljö; KTH; tryckmätning segel;

    Abstract : Wallenius Marine, KTH and SSPA are working together on a wind powered car carrier, that will ship cars over the atlatic. KTH has a small scale prototype of this vessel, and uses this prototype to test performance and new sensor systems, that can be used on the full scale vessel. READ MORE

  6. 5. Experimental Investigation of the Aerodynamics of a Sailing Cargo Vessel with Four Rigid Wingsails under Unsteady Sailing Conditions

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Antonia Hillenbrand; [2022]
    Keywords : Experimental Aerodynamics; Pressure measurements; Sailing; Scale model testing; Trimming; Sea trial; Experimentell aerodynamik; Tryckmätning; Segling; Testning av skalamodeller; Trimning; Sjöprovning;

    Abstract : Wind propulsion is a traditional way to propel ships over the oceans. In the recent development towards more sustainable shipping, sailing is considered in the industry again with high momentum. For a modern merchant ship, the aerodynamic forces generated on the particular rigging are unusual. READ MORE
