Allocation of student projects and theses

Offers for students in their bachelor's.

The Institute for Wind Energy Systems offers the following topics for students in their Bachelor's studies. The proposed tasks can be adapted individually according to the respective type of thesis (student project or Bachelor's Thesis) and the respective volume of work. We are also open for ideas and proposals of the students. Please contact us and we discuss how to proceed.

Introduction and Scope of Work

Principle stress directions vary in time under multiaxial loads. In brittle matrials (e. g. adhesives in wind turbine rotor blades or cast iron in rotor hubs), this results in fatigue damage that is not evenly distributed among material planes, but is concentrated around a single plane, which is called the critical plane.

In fatigue life calculations of such materials, the damage on the critical plane is governing, and not the accumulation of damage on all material planes, as would be the case for ductile materials. The identification of the critical plane is thus of utmost importance. However, that is linked with very high computational cost. In order to reduce the computation times, different optimisation algorithms have to be tested in the context of this Bachelor's Thesis.

Prior knowledge on fatigue life analysis is not necessarily required. Further details are given in the offer (in German only).

Requirements

• Prior experience in Matlab is required.

For uni-axial fatigue analyses, rainflow counting is a standard method for the counting of cycles. It yields reliable results at low computational cost. For multi-axial loads, the traditional rainflow counting schemes do only offer meaningful information on the identified cycles, if the principle stress directions are approximately constant over time. In that case, we speak of proportional loads.

For non-proportional loads, traditional rainflow counting algorithms can yield severe inaccuracies in fatigue life estimations. In this case, multi-axial rainflow count algorithms are required in order to improve the prediction accuracy. In this work, different variants of multi-axial rainflow counting are to be compared in the framework of benchmark examples.

Buckling is a mechanism of stability failure in thin-walled structures which are exposed to compressive stresses. Buckling is a bifurcation problem, where large displacements perpendicular to the structure plane occur instantaneously. This phenomenon reduces the structural integrity of the respective structures dramatically, hence it is understood as failure. Since the growth in size of rotor blades is an ongoing trend, increasingly large structural parts are loaded by increasing loads. Consequently, the risk of buckling increases as well.

In the framework of this work, selected rotor blades in the multi-MW class have to be analysed with respect to their buckling resistance. For this purpose, 3D finite element analyses have to be carried out, including linear and nonlinear buckling analyses. If the task is conducted as a Master's Thesis, additional subtasks have to be investigated.

Further details are given in the offer.

• Ideal candidates have some basic experience in finite element application.

Finance as resource allocation: Does ESG build real assets?

This study complements the many that have asked whether ESG (environment, sustainability and governance) is associated with higher or lower return on investment: Finance also creates real assets. Is there evidence, in our time, that preferences or policies, regulation, raises resource flows and asset creation (builds windmills, for instance).

Supervisor: Gunnar S. Eskeland .

The potential in renewable power

Contact Eskeland for Study design, as many approaches are on the table. One is the role of taxes (incl the new 'grunnrenteskatt'), another is new concessions and the role and shape of auctions, including contracts of difference; a third is offshore installations and how they are placed in terms of access to markets, etc.

Political Economy and Social Perspectives on the Climate Transition

NHH works with technically oriented partners (industry, ntnu, ife) on scenarios for the transition to a low-carbon economy. This thesis will combine such scenarios for the transition with perspectives from political economy (as with: who pays, and industry interests, and rich vs poor) and social acceptance.

Electric vehicles and de-carbonizing transportation

This topic is in collaboration with ENOVA.

Norway has pledged to reach almost net zero emissions by 2050. The transport sector is responsible for almost one-third of the emissions in Norway, and the use of passenger cars alone is responsible for almost 10%. Therefore, to reach net zero, it is vital to de-carbonize the Norwegian car fleet. A key strategy to reduce emissions from the transport sector is to induce households to replace their fossil fuel cars with electric vehicles. Although most of the new cars sold in Norway are electric, the national fleet of cars still contains 'only' electric vehicles 20%. Will all cars in the future eventually be electric? Or are there barriers preventing the switch to electric vehicles?

In this topic, students will explore the sources of emissions from the Norwegian car fleet and how these emissions can be reduced. The thesis will focus on two main issues:

1. Emissions from the car fleet in Norway: Emissions from the transport sector have been steadily falling. But the car fleet is projected to increase in the coming years, and the share of transport with car is also increasing.

a) What are the drivers of emissions? For example, number of miles driven per car, age of the cars, geographical distribution, etc.

b) How will these emissions evolve over time?

2. Switching from fossil fuel cars to electric vehicles: Purchasing and driving electric vehicles have been heavily subsidized by the government. But people are still driving fossil fuel cars.

a) What are the barriers to replacing your fossil fuel car with an electric vehicle? For example, economic, behavioral, social, etc.

b) How can we induce households to make the switch to electric?

This topic can be approached from many different angles and is suitable for a wide range of empirical methods.

Possible topics in collaboration with Maritime Cleantech cluster partners with assistance from the cluster administration

• Shipping aims to halve its emissions by 2050. How should a shipping company approach this goal in terms of investment and redevelopment programmes? (Shipping company)
• How to market/sell green fuels and technologies that have not yet been demonstrated in the market? For example hydrogen, fuel cells etc. (fuel producers, FC producers and the like.)
• Strategy for marketing hydrogen/ammonia as a safe and secure green fuel (producers).
• Green innovation: How to change from traditional offshore to deliveries in new value chains (supplier industry, shipyards, shipping companies).

A study of the efficiency and suitability of batteries in order to solve the intermittency problem associated with new renewable energy such as solar and wind power.

Hydrogen and its role in Europe's energy transition

Transport and co2 emission reductions (or any segment: maritime, aviation, cars, etc), war, crisis and energy in europe, green energy and guarantees of origin.

During the last years, governments around the world have implemented different policies to promote investments in renewable production capacity. One of the main instruments is a policy known as guarantees of origin. These guarantees operate as a guarantee for final consumers that the electricity they consume comes from renewable energy sources.

An important characteristic of the guarantees is that the producers are free to sell the electricity and guarantees separately. What we are observing is that while electricity from Norwegian hydropower is largely sold to consumers in Norway, the guarantees from Norwegian hydropower is sold to consumers in Germany and the Netherlands. Despite the growing importance of this policy, there are few studies of the impacts of guarantees of origin on renewable production capacity.

In this master thesis, the students will investigate the effect of this policy instrument on renewable electricity capacity in Europe. What has Norway’s role been in promoting renewable energy capacity through guarantees of origin? What has the interaction been between guarantees of origin and other incentives to boost investments in renewable production capacity? And what are the implications of the de-coupling of the sale of the electricity with the sale of the guarantees?

This topic of research is suitable for many different types of methods, depending on the interests and skills of the students. The thesis can be based on either a statistical analysis, case study or modelling exercise.

Detailing the Value of Climate- and Environmental Surveillance on Sea food production

What’s the cost-benefit for using an integrated climate and environment surveillance on seafood production? The student will assess the impact and values associated with using a detailed monitoring tool called Clarify, which currently is employed by many seafood producers. The student will be given access to unpublished data afforded by Clarify that can be directly compared to other chains of the seafood production, including feeding, fish welfare, loss to sickness and slaughter. Additional climate data can also be made available to the student depending on emerging needs. This Master opens for a relevant exploration of how monitoring can strengthen seafood sustainability and resilience to the changing climate conditions that remain the key premise for seafood production. The industry partner for this thesis is Clarify.

Optimal placement and impact of offshore wind parks

In this thesis, the students will use historical weather data to investigate the potential of Norwegian wind power in a scenario where all the current offshore locations suggested by the NVE are in full production. Alternative locations derived from optimizing production output are available and can be compared to the sites suggested by NVE. A secondary goal is to use the results to investigate the impact on the European energy market. The industry partner for this thesis is Statkraft.

The black swans of climate risk: Compound events

Extreme weather events such as floods, heatwaves, droughts, and storms cause major economic losses to private and public sector alike. The latest IPCC report shows that the frequency, and to some extent the magnitude, of such events will continue to increase although there are exceptions. The probability of so-called ‘compound events’ – that two or more extreme events happen simultaneously or successively – will increase due to this ongoing trend.

Such events carry even more extreme economic losses and play a crucial role in evaluating climate risk, but they are not well constrained nor understood. In 2018, there was elevated risk for snow-driven flooding in central Norway, which was followed by one of the warmest and driest summers on record, which coincided with several climatically induced forest fires. Based on both historical data and climate predictions, the students will evaluate the probability and potential economic consequences of compound events today and in the future and provide insights and advice for the insurance industry. The industry partner for this thesis is Tryg.

What are the optimal sites for future seafood production?

Wind conditions, sea currents, -temperature and -salinity are all important factors when considering new locations for ocean-based aquaculture facilities. Moreover, locations that are considered optimal today may not be suitable locations in the future due to climate change. In this thesis, the students will investigate the current optimal placements of aquaculture based on detailed historical data. By considering state of the art climate predictions, it can be investigated how these placements will change on different time horizons. The students should also discuss placement conflicts with fisheries and coastal shipping routes. The industry partner for this thesis is Clarify.

Economic impacts of climate change

Many social and economic activities are heavily affected by weather variables such as temperatures and precipitation. In this master thesis, the students will explore the relationship between weather variables and economic decisions made by Norwegian households and/or businesses. In addition, the students will explore how climate change, through its effect on temperatures and precipitation, will affect these economic decisions into the future.

Examples of relationships to explore are the effects of heatwaves on human mortality rates, extreme precipitation on agricultural production, or drought on hydropower production. The exploration can be either on the macro or micro level and can be in the form of either a statistical analysis or modelling exercise. For the prediction exercise, the students will have access to novel climate forecasts from the Climate Futures project. An interesting question to explore is how access to improved seasonal weather forecasts can mitigate the harmful economic impacts of climate change.

Econometric analysis of the sales of new cars in Norway

Supervisor:  Øyvind Thomassen .

Contact: [email protected] .

I have three data sets that you can use for the thesis: 1) price lists with car model variant and some technical characteristics, 2) new registrations of car model engine variants, by age and sex of the registered owner, 3) the annual rules for calculating the registration tax (engangsavgift). 

For most uses, you will want to merge data sets 1) and 2). This will entail some tedious data work (probably using Stata or R), because of a lack of exact common identifiers. 

The data go up to 2015, but it may be possible to obtain more recent data. 

There are many questions that could be answered with the data, including saying something about the effect of the favorable tax treatment given to electric vehicles, which probably explains their large market share in Norway. 

To choose this topic you must have taken a course in econometrics.

Econometric analysis of data from the government vehicle register

Like my topic ‘Econometric analysis of the sales of new cars in Norway’, this topic is based on data on cars in Norway. However, for this topic, I currently do not have the data, but I believe they can be obtained from Statens Vegvesen (Norwegian Public Roads Administration). See information here: https://www.vegvesen.no/om-oss/om-organisasjonen/apne-data/api-for-kjoretoyopplysninger/utvidet-utlevering-av-kjoretoyopplysninger/

My other topic uses data on the flow of new cars. This topic uses data on the stock of cars. The two data sources could conceivably be combined.

Background from a course in econometrics is needed.

Natural resource extraction nearby: opportunity or concern for non-resource firms?

How does natural resource extraction such as oil&gas production affect nearby firms in other sectors, such as manufacturing and services? Potential agglomeration effects could benefit firms, but increased competition for labor or more corruption might harm firms. Since firms are the backbone of every modern economy, these considerations are crucial to understand whether natural resources are a blessing or a curse.

Pricing and congestion management in wholesale electricity markets

Integration of renewable energy sources in electricity markets, local flexibility markets and demand response in the electricity sector, integration of regional electricity markets and use of hvdc interconnectors, european integration of intraday and balancing markets, sustainable energy and development.

Around the world, the governments are imple- menting policies to foster the introduction of renewable energy. In that context, there are different research questions to develop in a master thesis that could contribute to develop a sustainable economic system.

• Which will be the relation between renewable energy and hydrogen?
• Which are the policies introduced in cities to reduce carbon emissions?
• Which will be the impact of the adoption of renewable energy in women unemploy- ment? Could the introduction of renewable energy increase the gender gap?
• Which will be the changes in the design of electricity markets induced by the intro- duction of renewable energy?
• Which is the relation between hydrogen and lithium batteries? Which is the best way to store electricity in the short-term and in the long-term?
• Which policies could be implemented to promote energy effciency?
• How do the electricity grid need to change to accommodate renewable energy?

Supervisor: Mario Blazques de Paz

Transmission constraints

Electricity markets are moving through the integration around the world. Moreover, the countries are increasing their investments in renewable production capacity to fulfil with the agreements in carbon emission reductions. In that context, the transmission grid plays a crucial role promoting the integration of electricity markets and accommodating the renewable production capacity into the system. In re- lation with this topic, there are different research questions that could be of interest to develop a master thesis.

• Which should be design of electricity markets in the presence of transmission con- straints.
• Could the integration of electricity markets in Europe increase competition? Which will be the impact of that integration in the investments in transmission capacity, and in renewable production capacity?
• Which should be the relation between the spot and the redispatch market when the transmission lines are congested? How we can design those markets to increase com- petition?
• How should the regulator design transmission tariffs to guarantee investments in trans- mission capacity, and transmission effciency?

Testimonials

Mia Dragovic, Croatia

"The workload is manageable and the programme is worth doing, just make sure you do set aside time for work all along the year, not only before the due dates. And definitely make use of group work and ability to meet many wonderful experts among your peers.”

Edwin Ong, Australia

“Initially it was challenging trying to balance part-time study with full-time work. You certainly have to make adjustments in your life, but you slowly get used to the arrangement. It was extremely helpful that the lectures were recorded and could be accessed at any time.”

Wind Energy - proposed master thesis projects

Wind Energy

On the Brightspace organization  Wind Energy - proposed master thesis projects  you can find all our thesis projects we are currently offering to students.You are of course also welcome to bring to us your suggestions for a project. In that case, please contact the staff member working in that subject area. Usually a master project is related to an ongoing research of the Wind Energy Research Group. Students who are registered in the Aerodynamics & Wind Energy MSc track, profile Aerodynamics, and in the FPP MSc track are also allowed to choose one of the wind energy thesis topics (and vice versa).

For general questions about thesis projects at the Wind Energy Group you can contact  Delphine de Tavernier .

Master Projects Aeroacoustics

Are you looking for a Master Thesis and have a solid background in Physics and Mathematics? Are you interested in aerodynamics, propulsion or wind‑energy and would like to work in Aeroacoustics?

Our group might be then a good choice for you! Aeroacoustics is becoming one of the most important challenges for engineers either approaching an industrial or an academic career in propulsion, wind energy and aerodynamics. Most of the companies working in collaboration with the AWEP department are increasingly asking for aeroacoustic knowledge and sponsoring studies for several applications ranging from wind‑turbine blades, aircraft design, jet noise etc.

We have a series of Master Projects available for you in the following subjects:

• Trailing‑edge noise reduction in wind‑turbines
• Porous materials for noise reduction
• Mitigation of installation effects in propeller aircraft
• Aeroacoustic of drones and engine noise reduction
• Ducted wind‑turbines for on‑shore application
• Noise reduction of future engines with boundary‑layer ingestion
• Personal Air Vehicles (PAV) and drone aeroacoustics
• Digital aircraft noise certification and flight-test uncertainties

Together with a growing interests in aeroacoustic studies of students of the Delft University of Technology, the master projects focusing on aeroacoustics are proposed to provide students with a broader knowledge of the noise sources and their measurements in wind tunnels by both lectures and laboratory activities. We have a team of faculty members and PhD candidates to help master students working with state of the art flow and noise measurement techniques. Are you looking for a fundamental study... for an industrial one... numerical or experimental and you just can’t decide? Do not hesitate, pass by for a short talk!

 ... need help or info? come visit us in Room 62‑5.07, Kluyverweg 1, 2629HS, Delft Experimental topics:  Dr. Daniele Ragni Numerical topics:  Dr. Francesco Avallone
