Developing simulation software to asses the climate impact of transportation systems. Including use of battery and hybrid systems.My role consists of customer relations, as well as developing software.For more information visit us at:mhtech.no

My work consists of creating a simulation tool to simulate the state of charge of a battery used in a ferry. The simulation copes with both pure battery ferries as well as hybrids, both plug-in and conventional. By creating the tool, I have looked into both the battery technology, how the usage influences the cell-voltage, and how this again influences the usage of the battery. Moreover, the running of diesel engines such as to maximize the utility of the battery.The tool is… Show more My work consists of creating a simulation tool to simulate the state of charge of a battery used in a ferry.

Conducted a study about the possible gains of electrical ferries.The work consisted of creating a calculation model, both to represent the present situation, and to estimate the energy requirements for the electrical solutions.To create this model a lot of information about the ferries and routes were collected, as well as theory to base the model upon.http://www.mynewsdesk.com/no/siemens-as/documents/7-av-10-ferger-er-loennsomme-med-elektrisk-drift-en-mulighetsstudie-47964

An extension of my summer internship, to complete a project

In my summer internship with Wood Group Mustang Norway, I worked on the team conducting the global analysis of a semi-submersible. My responsibility was to create the 3D model in GeniE, which was the basis for the analysis. I also aided in analysing the results and post processing the analysis. This gave me good experience with the SESAM software from DNV GL and allowed me to learn from experienced engineers.
