  1. 1. Ensuring safe docking maneuvers on floating platform using Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC)

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Federico Gatti; [2024]
    Keywords : Robotics; Space Engineering; Docking Maneuvers; Floating Platforms; Nonlinear MPC; MPC; Barrier function; PWM;

    Abstract : Docking maneuvers are a relevant part of the modern space mission, requiring precision and safety to ensure the success of the overall mission. This thesis proposes using a non-linear Model Predictive Control (MPC) as a controller with various constraints to ensure safe docking maneuvers for a satellite. READ MORE

  3. 2. The Paradigm Shift for Substations Technology within Wind Power Applications from Onshore to Floating

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

    Author : Ahmad Talaat Hifzy; [2023]
    Keywords : Floating; offshore; substation; transformer; GIS; equipment; high-voltage; fatigue; Flytande; havsbaserad; station; transformator; GIS; utrustning; högspänning; utmattning;

    Abstract : Floating wind turbines are attracting more attention as more than three-quarters of the total offshore technical potential is located in deep water, leading to a growing trend in floating wind farm projects. Consequently, it becomes necessary to develop Floating Offshore Substation (FOSS) to step up voltage and efficiently transmit power to the shore with minimal losses. READ MORE

  4. 3. Study on feasibility of small-scale pumped hydro storage- A case study in Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Prashant Niroula; [2023]
    Keywords : energy storage; pumped hydropower; electricity market; investment; new technologies; feasibility; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The European union has been aggressively pushing forward with policies favoring renewable sources of energy. As a result, the share of intermittent renewables in the European power grid is rising and is expected to grow even more in the coming decade. The Swedish energy agency also forecast huge growth in wind power. READ MORE

  5. 4. Rening och rekreation : ett gestaltningsförslag för en dagvattendamm i Tallstråket med flytande våtmarker

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Author : Elvira Jubel; [2023]
    Keywords : Dagvattendamm; rekreation; flytande våtmarker; Tallstråket; dagvattenhantering; rening; metaller; föroreningar; gestaltning;

    Abstract : Med ett förändrat klimat och städer som förtätas och hårdgörs ställs högre krav på dagvattenhantering. I städer som förtätas prioriteras även blå- och grönytor ofta bort, och invånarnas möjligheter till rekreation minskar. READ MORE

  6. 5. Leveraging Posits for the Conjugate Gradient Linear Solver on an Application-Level RISC-V Core

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

    Author : David Mallasén Quintana; [2022]
    Keywords : Computer Arithmetic; Conjugate Gradient; Posit; IEEE-754; Floating Point; High-Performance Computing; RISC-V; Datoraritmetik; Konjugerad Gradient; Posit; IEEE-754; Flytande Punkt; Högpresterande Beräkningar; RISC-V;

    Abstract : Emerging floating-point arithmetics provide a way to optimize the execution of computationally-intensive algorithms. This is the case with scientific computational kernels such as the Conjugate Gradient (CG) linear solver. Exploring new arithmetics is of paramount importance to maximize the accuracy and timing performance of these algorithms. READ MORE
