SINTEF Ocean

This site contains links to a few software projects and repositories maintained by SINTEF Ocean.

Software

FhSim

FhSim is a software platform and framework for mathematical modelling and numerical simulation, with a focus on marine applications.

RatatoskIDL

Project with Interface Definition Language (IDL) files as import targets. It provides source files so that communication APIs between applications using data distribution service standard OMG DDS can be generated. The IDL files are used by ratatosk and other softwares in our portfolio.

Sinspekto

Sinspekto is a module that provides Qt modeling language (QML) components for interacting with applications that use the data distribution service standard OMG DDS as communication middleware. Sinspekto consists of classes that define various QML Object Attributes, which are translated to / from DDS topics. This means that by using sinspekto QML elements in your application, it is possible to interact with other systems using DDS.

conan recipes

We make use of conan to build many of our projects. This site contains an overview of the continuous integration build status of public recipes maintained by us.

R&D projects

FHF: Catch control in Purse Seine

“Fangstkontroll i notfiske etter pelagiske arter: Fase 2” is a project funded by FHF – Norwegian Seafood Research Fund, Grant No. 901350. See the FHF’s project page for updated news.

As part of this project, several software programs and libraries have been developed. In addition to improvements to RatatoskIDL and Sinspekto mentioned above, we have developed two programs, namely Balder and Mimir.

Balder

Balder is a graphical user application that provides decision support for the captain in purse seining before gear deployment. Balder makes use of real-time data and model predictive control algorithms to predict a deployment trajectory for the purse seine. The deployment trajectory is devised by taking into account expected sink depth/speed of the gear and use a prescribed trajectory of the fish school

Mimir

Mimir serves as a simple reference implementation to achieve an optimization-based decision support for deployment planning. The program typically runs to provide algorithm outputs to another application, for instance a graphical application that visualizes the results. The algorithms are specifically set up to use the CasADi framework and its interfaces to various algorithm libraries, including optimization problem solvers and numerical integrators.
