General purpose process control unit
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-12)
The main purpose of the thesis is to make a control unit where different models can be tested with a number of motors, sensors, indicators, control devices which are used by Fischertechnik in training models. This work observes different types of speed motor control and investigates most useful method that could be implemented at the PLC Lab. It would be very useful to simulate separated parts of ...
Optimization of the mass of a sandwich plate that TAM is producing
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-15)
In this report the possibility to optimize the mass of a sandwich plate that TAM produces have been reviewed. Dimensions of the plate is 2602mm x 2404mm with a core thickness of 40mm, top facing of 3mm and bottom facing of 1mm. To simplify the computations they calculate with uniform facings of 1mm. The function of the sandwich plate is to lift livestock with wires that are fastened in the four ...
Multisensor video magnification
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-13)
This study was performed with the three main goals. The first of which includes the implementation of “Eulerian Video Magnification” for the normal videos to observe the subtle changes that cannot be seen through the naked eyes. The second goal was to implement interpolation on thermal infrared videos. Finally, the third goal is to combine both the videos to amplify complex variations to reveal ...
Utnytting av energi i vannforsyning for oppvarming av større bygg
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-08)
Det anbefales et varmepumpeanlegg med tre sammenkoblete varmepumper som benytter kommunes backup drikkevannsforsyning som varmekilde. Anlegget kan levere 262 kW varmeeffekt til Salangen bo- og eldresenter og Vasshaug barnehage. Økonomisk vurdering viser at prosjektet har en positiv nåverdi på 3,8 mil. kroner og 2,9 år inntjeningstid.
Design of a pipeline flexibility bench
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-08-15)
In this thesis “Design of pipeline flexibility bench” an exertion has been made to make a conclusive study of fluid flow through pipe. Analysis has been carried out using analytical and numerical approach, where advance computer aided engineering tools such as CFD & FEM approach is used to study the flow behavior in different pipe configurations.

Lavenergi brannstasjon i Narvik
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-07)
Energibruken i Norge har steget med 40 % siden 1970-årene, og bygningssektoren legger beslag på om lag 38 % av den totale energibruken i Norge. På bakgrunn av denne utviklingen ble kapittelet for energikrav revidert i teknisk forskrift fra 1. Januar 2016. De nye energikravene hadde ett års overgangstid hvor de gamle energikravene (TEK 10) kunne benyttes, og de nye energikravene (TEK 16) gjelder i ...
First aid equipment for use in cold climate environment: stretcher
(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.
