Optimal placement of PMUs considering logical topology of communication medium power system observability
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-11-07)A phasor measurement unit (PMU) has a unique ability of providing synchronized phasor measurements of voltage and currents. This ability distinguishes it from all other metering devices. It has been perceived that PMUs hold the capability of revolutionizing the way of power system monitoring and control. However, high per unit cost and challenges related to its communication system has made ... -
Communication in microgrids and virtual power plants
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-11-07)One of the cornerstones of the steady operation of microgrids and virtual power plants as building blocks for smart grid is the communication system, which is the main objective for evaluation and research in this thesis. The given project investigates the most widespread communication protocols along with IEC 61850 standard for substations automation applied in smart grids. Based on the presented ... -
Solar panel tracking control. Tracking the variations caused due to reflection from snow and other factors
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-11-07)This report presents the design and simulations of a dual-axis solar tracker. This solar tracker works solely based on the output power of the PV panel mounted to it. It does not use any photosensors to orient the PV module. Describing the process in short, the position of the Sun is first calculated based on time and location information. Since this solar panel will be mounted here at UiT, ... -
Quadrotor modeling and control
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-11-03)In this thesis a mathematical quadrotor model based on cascade modeling theory, using a passivity-based control solution is derived and presented. The rotation and translation cascades are rst decoupled, modeled mathematically and simulated separately to test individual control solutions and stability, followed by total system modeling and simulations to verify the control solutions and stability ... -
Ku-band patch antenna design
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-11-03)The market for on-the-move satellite communication is increasing, and phased array antennas have characteristics that makes them suited for this. In this thesis design and tuning of a wide-band microstrip patch antenna element for a Ku-band antenna array is presented. The SSFIP structure with a resonating aperture is used for the antenna element, and double resonance allows for operation at both ... -
Numerical simulation of the dynamic response in pulse-loaded fibre–metal-laminated plates
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-07-27)This article presents a three-dimensional constitutive model to replicate the dynamic response of blast-loaded fibre–metal laminates made of 2024-0 aluminium alloy and woven composite (glass fibre–reinforced polypropylene). Simulation of the dynamic response is challenging when extreme localised loads are of concern and requires reliable material constitutive models as well as accurate modelling ... -

Design of water shock tube for testing shell materials
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014-04-15)This paper presents design considerations for a shock tube experimental rig used to investigate the dynamic failure mechanisms of shell geometries subjected to water shock impact loading. In such setup, it is desirable that the drive pressure used within the tube can provide a wide range of impulsive loads on the test structures and some flexibility can be achieved on the applied pulse durations. ... -
Weighted Hardy-Type Inequalities in Variable Exponent Morrey-Type Spaces
(Journal article; Peer reviewed; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2013)We study the p(.) -> q(.) boundedness of weighted multidimensional Hardy-type operators H-w(alpha(.)) and H-w(alpha(.)) of variable order alpha(x), with radial weight w(vertical bar x vertical bar), from a variable exponent locally generalized Morrey space L-p(.),L-phi(.)(R-n, w) to another L-q(.),L-psi(.)(R-n, w). The exponents are assumed to satisfy the decay condition at the origin and infinity. ... -
Reiterated homogenization of nonlinear monotone operators in a general deterministic setting
(Journal article; Peer reviewed; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2009)We study reiterated homogenization of a nonlinear non-periodic elliptic differential operator in a general deterministic setting as opposed to the usual stochastic setting. Our approach proceeds from an appropriate notion of convergence termed reiterated Σ-convergence. A general deterministic homogenization theorem is proved and several concrete examples are studied under various structure hypotheses ... -

On heat conduction in domains containing noncoaxial cylinders
(Journal article; Peer reviewed; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2012)We consider heat conduction in domains containing noncoaxial cylinders. In particular, we present some regularity results for the solution and consider criteria which ensure the single valueness of the corresponding complex potential. Examples are discussed. In addition, we present some classes of cases where the parameters describing the solution are rational. Alternative ways of calculating the ... -
