  • Experimental Investigation of Deicing with Seawater 

    Sæterdal, Ane Solbakken; Visich, Aleksandra; Deshpande, Sujay; Sundsbø, Per-Arne (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2023-06-19)
    Increased traffic and interest in arctic regions necessitate measures to ensure the safety and functionality of vessels. Sea-spray icing is one of the significant hazards for small- and medium-sized vessels in polar waters. Ice cover can restrict access to essential parts of a vessel and compromise its stability. Existing deicing measures, such as heat or chemical application and manual ice removal, ...

    Pham, Le Nam Hai; Wagle, Raju; Gonzalez-Longatt, Francisco; Acosta Montalvo, Martha Nohemi (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2023-05-17)
    Protective relays are an integral part of the power grid, making it reliable and secure against abnormal conditions. Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) can be employed to test and validate digital protective relay devices in the real-time simulation comprising hardware and software before actual implementation. However, the HIL technique requires a complex and high-cost technical environment consisting of ...
  • A Convergent Numerical Algorithm for α-Dissipative Solutions of the Hunter–Saxton Equation 

    Christiansen, Thomas; Grunert, Katrin; Nordli, Anders Samuelsen; Solem, Susanne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-02)
    A convergent numerical method for α -dissipative solutions of the Hunter–Saxton equation is derived. The method is based on applying a tailor-made projection operator to the initial data, and then solving exactly using the generalized method of characteristics. The projection step is the only step that introduces any approximation error. It is therefore crucial that its design ensures not only a ...
  • Take-Home Exams in University Mathematics and Science Subjects: Some Ethical Considerations 

    Rensaa, Ragnhild Johanne; Kristiansen, Raymond (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024)
    This article addresses some challenging perspectives related to offering take-home exams in mathematics at university level. The challenges arose during work on a previous article where four perspectives originating from Bjerrum Nielsen’s framework (2003) were used to analyze universities’ assessment methods during the Covid lockdown in our country. The perspectives had some ethical considerations ...
  • A new dispatching mechanism for parallel-machine scheduling with different efficiencies and sequence-dependent setup times 

    Wu, Gen-Han; Pourhejazy, Pourya; Li, Wang-Xian; Wu, Tai-Hsi (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-02-22)
    he Apparent Tardiness Cost (ATC) dispatching rule was initially developed to minimize tardiness in single machine scheduling problems. ATC extensions have been frequently applied in other production settings, relying heavily on blocking idle machine capacity with a single-machine outlook; this approach may not result in the best outcomes, considering that machines have different efficiencies. This ...

  • A Method for Determining Optimal Charging Infrastructures in Public Ferry Transportation Networks 

    Kristensen, Joachim (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-05-15)
    In this thesis, we establish the theoretical foundation for determining the minimum requirements for charging infrastructures in networks where electric ferries operate on a fixed schedule. The problem - named the Multiple-Trip Electric Charging Station Placement (MT-ECSP) - is formulated as a 0-1 Integer Program, and is subsequently proven to be NP-hard. We construct several instances of the ...
