In compact living spaces like micro-houses and apartments, there is a growing interest in décor and furnishing that utilize multi-functional systems and furniture. Of particular interest is the ability to facilitate the transformation of room setups, allowing for changes in the viewing positions of TVs regardless of alterations in room orientation. A thorough examination of the problem area uncovered ...

The usability of bridges is highly dependent on their safety conditions since they are subjected to all sorts of loading that might compromise their ability to withstand stresses over a prolonged period. As a result, dynamic response evaluations and fracture mechanics analysis are essential concepts that can help in monitoring the behaviour of bridges, predicting their lifespan, and planning ...

This master thesis reports on the research of how weather affects driving patterns during the winter. By utilizing Python, data was analyzed to show how much different weather phenomena affects the total amount of traffic. Showing how things like precipitation, temperatures, wind, snow depth affects said amount. The result of the analysis shows how big effect the various weather conditions have and ...

This document is a master thesis that attempts to assess the plan of pumping water from the nearby lakes of Djupåvatnet (435 m), Buvatnet (465 m), and Strandvatnet (5 m above sea level) up to the lake of Niingensvatnet (510-494 m above sea level) to store energy for later use and increase energy generation. The assessment process proved that pumping water from Strandvatnet and Djupåvatnet to ...

As the world faces the urgent need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change, renewable sources of energy have emerged as a viable solution. However, integrating renewable energy into existing power grids poses unique challenges. The availability of solar power depends on sunlight, wind power on wind speed, and this variability can cause instability and fluctuations in the grid, ...

As global energy consumption continues to rise relevant energy sectors and communities must accurately forecast future electricity needs. This foresight is critical for effective planning, preserving the stability of the electricity grid, and avoiding blackouts. Accurate forecasting methodologies are critical in guiding decision-making processes correlated to resource allocation, infrastructure ...

This thesis studies the application of Change Point Detection (CPD) algorithms to the segmentation of symbolic music using MIDI representations. This study focuses on the use of two primary CPD algorithms, PELT and Binary Segmen- tation, to analyze and detect transitions within the Lakh MIDI dataset, which is known for its diversity in musical genres and styles. The main focus of the thesis is on ...

This thesis deals with the subject of a two axis rotatable solar panel rig where the design for the electrical components are proposed and the controller code from previous theses are further developed. The rig is to be used for research by UiT Narvik and the prerequisites for the installation of the rig are designed in this thesis. The electrical components for the rig proposed are an H-bridge, ...

Belt conveyor systems play a crucial role in the continuous transportation of bulk materials across varying distances. However, ensuring the reliability of these systems remains a significant concern for operators due to the potential financial losses incurred from system downtime, which not only impacts revenue from material conveying but also disrupts subsequent material processing facilities. The ...
