Monitoring techniques of a natural analogue for sub-seabed CO2 leakages

Effects of sub-seabed CO2 leakage: Short- and medium-term responses of benthic macrofaunal assemblages.

The continued rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels is driving climate change and temperature shifts at a global scale. CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) technologies have been suggested as a feasible option for reducing CO2 emissions and mitigating their effects. However, before CCS can be employed at an industrial scale, any environmental risks associated with this activity should be id...

Condition Monitoring Techniques of Power Transformers: A Review

Power transformers provide a vital link between the generation and distribution of produced energy. Such static equipment is subjected to abuse during operation in generation and distribution stations and leads to catastrophic failures. This paper reviewed the techniques in the field of condition monitoring of power transformers in recent years. Transformer monitoring and diagnosis are the effe...

Monitoring of Water Leakages from Pipes through Geophysical Imaging Methods

Motion planning for seabed monitoring by autonomous underwater vehicles

This thesis deals with mission planning for multi-robot seabed monitoring task with Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV). The overall goal of this work is to design a mission planner that ensures visiting all places in a given area and keeps the AUVs in operational state by charging from the seabed station. Key part of designed mission planner is also the motion planning. We propose two differe...

Time-Frequency Transform Techniques for Seabed and Buried Target Classification

An approach for processing sonar signals with the ultimate goal of ocean bottom sediment classification and underwater buried target classification is presented in this paper. Work reported for sediment classification is based on sonar data collected by one of the AN/AQS-20’s sonars. Synthetic data, simulating data acquired by parametric sonar, is employed for target classification. The techniq...
