1. 1. Finite-Element Analysis of Cryogenic Pressure Vessels Under Blast Loading

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

   Author : Casper Liavåg; [2023]
   Keywords : Cryogenic Pressure Vessel; Blast; Blast Loading; Pressure Vessel; Launch Infrastructure;

   Abstract : The behavior of cryogenic double-walled pressure vessels, such as thoseused in space launch vehicle infrastructure, under blast loading is a somewhatunderstudied topic. This is of interest due its implications on, among otherthings, launch site design and safety in the event of a launch vehicle failure. READ MORE

3. 2. Modelling the Resilience of Offshore Renewable Energy System Using Non-constant Failure Rates

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

   Author : Mussie Abraham Beyene; [2021]
   Keywords : offshore renewable energy; resilience; wave energy farm; vulnerability; characterization; weather climates; failure rate; wind energy farm; generalized extreme value method; significant wave height; wind speed;

   Abstract : Offshore renewable energy systems, such as Wave Energy Converters or an Offshore Wind Turbine, must be designed to withstand extremes of the weather environment. For this, it is crucial both to have a good understanding of the wave and wind climate at the intended offshore site, and of the system reaction and possible failures to different weather scenarios.

4. 3. Strength assessment of rig foundations for a sailing car carrier

   University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

   Author : Alfred Rapaport; [2020]
   Keywords : Naval Architecture; Solid Mechanics; Finite Element Analysis; Concept development; Sailing; Skeppsbyggnad; Hållfasthetslära; Finita elementmetoden; Konceptutveckling; Segling;

   Abstract : The wPCC project (wind powered car carrier) is carried out by Wallenius Marine, KTH Royal Institute of Technology and SSPA Sweden. By developing a car carrier mainly propelled by the wind, the emissions are estimated to be reduced by up to 90 %. This thesis deals with the structural aspects of the design. READ MORE

5. 4. VESSEL FLEET OPTIMISATION FOR OFFSHORE WIND POWER MAINTENANCE

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Dimitrios Liapodimitris; [2017]
   Keywords : Wind; Energy; Offshore; Maintenance; Optimisation; Optimization; Vessels; O M;

   Abstract : Wind power has been a leading energy source in the renewable energy sector. The offshore wind power industry is rapidly growing, having the advantages of great wind resources, with minimum impact on residential areas; however, the high O&M costs add significantly to the LCOE, and present a challenge to the project developers and operators.

6. 5. Future offshore wind farm construction and maintenance strategies

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

   Author : Jesper Strid; [2017]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : With the wind farms moving further from shore, new challenges arise. Technicians must visit the turbines almost daily because of the constant need for maintenance. But when the transport time from shore to the wind farm turns into hours is some kind of permanent accommodation required at the farm for the technicians to live on. READ MORE
