    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, electron transport in mesoscopic semiconductor nanostructures, in particular so-called electron billiards or quantum dots, is studied. The thesis can be divided into two areas: the linear response regime of transport, and the nonlinear response regime of transport. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Buoy for linear wave energy converter

    Författare :Halvar Gravråkmo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : A wave energy converter (WEC) of point absorber type has been developed and tests have been conducted outside Lysekil. The project started in 2002 and linear permanent magnet generators together with a subsea substation and buoys of various geometric shapes have been built and tested. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Data-driven Ship Performance Models - - Emphasis on Energy Efficiency and Fatigue Safety

    Författare :Xiao Lang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; semi-empirical; energy efficiency; fatigue assessment; grey-box; full-scale measurements; speed-power relationship; added resistance due to waves; ship performance; machine learning;

    Sammanfattning : Due to digitalization in the maritime industry, a huge amount of ship operation-related data has been collected. The main objective of this thesis is to exploit machine learning/big data analytics to build data-driven ship performance models, focusing on speed-power relationship modeling, and fatigue accumulation assessment during a ship’s operation at sea.
