  1. 1. Dynamics of a CRAFT : A simulation study on a Counter Rotating vertical Axis Floating Tilting wind turbine

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

    Author : Benjamin Hedlund Peters; Linda Goude; [2023]
    Keywords : wind power; counter rotating; contra rotating; offshore wind; floating wind power; vertical axis wind turbine; VAWT; renewable energy;

    Abstract : In this thesis the Counter Rotating vertical Axis Floating Tilting wind turbine (CRAFT) has been explored by creating a simulation model in the program Simulink. The CRAFT prototype is a new type of wind turbine under development by World Wide Wind and Uppsala University with the aim to produce a large scale floating vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) with two cone shaped counter rotating turbines.

  3. 2. Investigation and implementation of rapid prototyping in development of a high-speed light craft

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Ulrik Sköldkvist; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Designing and constructing boats or ships is a slow, iterative process where the design goes through several steps in each iteration, and every loop in the process leads closer to the result. However, to verify if the boat's design functions, it must be built if there is no possibility to design, build, and evaluate smaller prototypes during the development. READ MORE

  4. 3. Model Design for Further Spray Deflector investigation

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Xinguo Wang; [2021]
    Keywords : High-Speed Craft; Model Design; Spray Deflector; Höghastighetshantverk; modelldesign; spraydeflektor;

    Abstract : Planing hull is one solution to break the speed barrier of conventional hull, but as the boat reaches a high speed, massive whisker spray will be developed and attached to the hull, which causes a notable resistance increase. A Swedish company Peterstep invented an innovative spray deflector that can deflect the spray backwards and harvest kinetic energy from the spray. READ MORE

  5. 4. Experimental Validation of Innovative High-Speed Craft Spray Deflectors

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Fran Osmak; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Hydrodynamic analysis of high-speed craft is a complex problem. For years naval architects have tried improving the eÿciency of the hull, changing its form, the number of hulls, adding spray rails or steps. READ MORE

  6. 5. Semi-active suspension seats in High speed crafts

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Victor Ekström; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The working environment of a high-speed-craft (HSC) can be uncomfortable and hazardous for the crew and passengers on board. This due to the repeated exposure to high levels of vibration and shocks, that can lead to reduced performance and severe injuries to the back and neck. READ MORE
