Rock behavior in and below an inclined fall pipe

Subsea rock installation is an offshore engineering process where rocks are placed on the seabed as protection of cables and pipelines and as scour protection. The inclined fallpipebis a new piece of equipment specifically designed to install rocks close to submerged structures. This thesis investigates the processes of the rock flow in and...

Offshore Wind Turbine Monopile Foundation Installation with a Dynamic Positioned Vessel: A feasibility study by modeling

After years of using fossil fuel, the transition to renewable energy sources need to be made to limit the increase in temperature and to support the future energy demand. To support and speed up the transition phase from fossil fuels to renewables it is necessary to decrease the costs. Offshore Wind Turbines are widely used for the production of...

Development of a numerical model for Cutter Suction Dredgers: A time domain analysis of a CSD in operation

A Cutter Suction Dredger (CSD) is a vessel that is used to cut hard soils with precision. It is moored stiffly through a spud pile while the soil is being cut. This, in combination with wave loads, causes the whole system to be dynamically challenging and nonlinear. Previous attempts to model a CSD in operation have been limited to the frequency...
