Permanente og mobile løsninger for tining av stikkrenner, grøfter og bekkeløp
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-05-16)Åpne linjegrøfter, stikkrenner og bekkeløp er essensielt for å ha et sikkert og velfungerende veg- og jernbanenett. Det vises at iskjøving er et av hovedproblemene som gjør at vannet fryser til is i nærheten til infrastrukturen og man får driftsforstyrrelser i form at is som enten har falt ned på vegbanen, eller fryser ut i skjæringene og gir reduksjon av profilet som jernbanens materiell krever for ... -
Automated multi-rotor draft survey of large vessels
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-05-16)In maritime sector draft survey has a significant importance as it is used to determine many important factors used in maritime transportation. Draft is the vertical displacement from the bottom of the keel (the bottom-most element of a vessel) to the water line (the line of meeting point of hull and the water surface). It is used to measure the minimum water depth for safe navigation of vessel and ... -
