      "The role of renewable sources of energy in combating climate change cannot be over-emphasized. Profound measures taken especially by the European Union (EU) in reducing global rising temperatures has seen massive development of renewable sources of energy such as solar and wind. This strategic plan taken by the EU has led to the an increase in national efforts to promote further development of ...
    • Analysis and Optimization of Sandwich Panels. Final report. 

      Røsdal, Arild (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-15)
      "The first part of this project, are general about sandwich structures. A sandwich construction, consist of two plate outsides (facings) glued to a core in the middle. Sandwiches are used in construction that must have a low weight, but a high stiffness. This indicated racing cars, aeroplane, ship shelters. To understand a sandwich construction, the basis, is to understand the sandwich beam. The are ...
    • First aid equipment for use in cold climate environment: stretcher 

      Søreng, Eirik; Bratteng, Karoline (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-15)
      "There is a need for a stretcher, which can also function as a sledge, especially for rescue missions in arctic climate, as the extraction point may only be accessible by people by foot or on skies. Existing solutions have some flaws, and some are not specifically designed for arctic conditions. The task is to develop a multi-purpose stretcher, operable by two members of the rescue team. In ...

      This thesis will continue the work done by Sethuram Balakrishnan in his master thesis “Duct fanned shielding design for quadrotors”. It includes studies of integrating Balakrishnan’s solution to the outer structure of the DJI Flame Wheel F450 Quadrotor in order to save weight. A report with preliminary work will cover investigation of existing solutions and technology, setting design requirements ...
    • Re- design of a multipurpose snowmobile sled for Norwegian volunteer (SAR organizations) 

      Johansen, Kari Wilhelmsen (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-15)
      "This master thesis is written for Norwegian volunteer organization “Hjelpekorpset” that is a search and rescue organization. The organization performs different kinds of activities in addition to rescue missions. During wintertime, they transport materials, furniture and other cargo to local huts to raise funds for the organization. This is the basis for the thesis, where the aim was to redesign a ...
    • Augmented Reality Application for Training in Maritime Operations. A Proof of Concept AR Application Developed for Microsoft HoloLens 

      Xue, Hui (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-27)
      Augmented reality (AR) is an advanced technology that integrates augmentations with the real world. This technology has been used to provide training and education along with other purposes. This work has been focused on enriching the learning experience of the maritime trainee by applying AR technology. In this work, a proof of concept AR application (App) is developed for the training of the ...
    • Artificial Intelligence based narrative generation for games 

      Lindgren, Jørgen Elden (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-08-15)
      This Master thesis presents an approach on using Artificial Intelligence to create stories for games. The Master thesis explores the posibility of using Augmented Transition Network and Ontology as a solution.
    • Optimal routing and charging procedures for electric buses 

      Masliakova, Kseniia (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-04-06)
      The goal of the project is to use Ant Colony Optimization techniques with Genetic Algorithm to design and analyse routes and recharging schedules for electric buses. One system so-called “en route” charging was analysed where the bus applies a kind of pantograph at bus stops to recharge the bus batteries. This implies more frequent, but short recharging intervals. The program offers diff t variants ...
    • Motion capturing machine learning. Bluetooth motion sensors 

      Gangenes, Elisabeth Razafimandimby (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-04-06)
      Good and efficient care for our elderly is a major concern in our ever aging popu- lation. The elderly’s greatest fear is falling to the ground, not being able to get up or get help. Use of Bluetooth motion sensors and appropriate agents can help alert for in the event of a person falling. In this master thesis an experimental sensor rig has been created together with an android application which ...
    • Efficient customizable tools for big data processing. Incoherent scatter radar big data as a case study 

      Trieu Thanh, Huy (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-04-06)
      This project is my master diploma project of the department of Computer Science at Norks Arktisk Universitet (UiT) in 2016. Every day, the satellites send to the ground stations huge amount of data for processing. Incoherent Scatter Radar (ISR) is a very interesting technology in the space science and it also sends a large amount of data in plasma line data back to the earth. Currently, the space ...
    • Design av dekksmontert knekk-kran 

      Eilertsen, Stian Schultz (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-11-01)
      Oppgavens hensikt var å designe en kran som skulle være klar til produksjon når prosjektet ferdigstilles. Under prosjekteringen skulle alle aspekter av krandesignet undersøkes. Kranen skulle arktifiseres, dette vil si gjøres klar for en arktiskmaritim vinter. Alle komponenter ble designet med en minimum sikkerhetsfaktor på 1.33, dog har de aller fleste komponentene en høyere sikkerhetsfaktor. Den ...
    • Effect of placement of PMUs on state estimation in a power system 

      Mironov, Iurii (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-11-07)
      State estimation is one of the most important processes in modelling and monitoring of a power system. Iterative and less accurate conventional means of estimation are now being replaced by fast and direct state vector measurements provided by PMUs. However, the high cost of PMUs forces engineers to choose wisely where the measurement units should be placed. The given project observes different ...
