We have had the pleasure to work with Erling Flåm Krogsrud, Markus Tønnessen and Bjørnar Torsvik Størkersen from HVL this semester. The students have worked on analysing and optimising a new hydrodynamic configuration of our Sentinel Inspection Drone.
The students have worked from our office one day per week, and have had hands-on experience with testing equipment in our workshop and in the sea right outside our office. The project included both CFD (computational fluid dynamics) and FEA (finite element analysis) simulations. We have been very pleased with their effort, and the project resulted in top grades, with an A.
We wish them best of luck with their upcoming masters degree studies at NTNU!
