About
Oddbjørn Bruland is a professor in Water Resources Engineering at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Study program leader for MSc. in HydroPower Development. He holds an executive master's degree in Technology Management and Innovation from MIT, NHH, and NTNU, as well as a master's and a Ph.D. from NTNU.
Oddbjørn has more than 20 years of diverse experience in research and project management in areas ranging from polar hydrology, snow and forecasting for optimization of hydropower production to software development and modeling for the power industry, flooding and natural hazards, and visualization and digital transformation. He has worked as a consultant in infrastructure planning and has been teaching at NTNU since 2012, as a professor from 2016, and as the program leader for the international master's program "Hydropower Development."
He initiated and led major transformation projects in the hydropower sector that have brought the company to a leading international position in these topics. Oddbjørn is also the initiator and project manager for one of NTNU's strategic focus projects, "World of Wild Waters." Through this project and his work and engagement in flood risk and flood protection, Oddbjørn has been heavily involved in societal discussions on this topic. He aims to focus on better understanding the challenges and communicating them through the better use of technology and digital tools. His ultimate goal is to find better, innovative, socio-economic and cost-effective measures to reduce the risks and consequences of floods.
Oddbjørn was the group leader for the Water Resources Group at NTNU (2016-2020), the chairman of the board for the Master in Technology Management program at NTNU/NHH (2011-2015), a board member at Tekna in Statkraft, serving his final year as the chairman (2009-2011), and the Chief Delegate on behalf of the Hydrological Council in Norway for the Northern Research Basin. He was also the chairman of Strindheim Ski, one of Norway's largest skiing clubs (2012-2020).
Research
Main research areas are within
=> snow as a resource both for the hydropower industry, sport and recreation. This research interest covers snow properties, snow accumulation and snow distribution, snow storage measurements, snow melt processes and modelling of these processes.
=> Flood risk evaluation, management and mitigation and covers the hydrological and hydraulic process understanding, modelling, techno-economic and socio-economic optimization. This involves the multipurpose understanding of the value of water courses.
=> Hydropower planning and optimization and covers how to exploite and balance the use of water resources in both a techno-economic and socio-economic optimal manner.
=> How to use digital tools to improve understanding and communication in operational activities and of research results.
World of Wild Water
WoWW focus on gamification of natural hazards to create immersive user experiences through digital storytelling and understanding of human behavior, to increase the understanding and communication of cause and effect of Natural Hazards.
Trygg Elv (Safe Rivers)
The Trygg Elv project aims at defining critical points in rivers during floods using automatic methods. The project will develop tools that can be used to detect and prioritise critical areas during floods meant for planning and operational use.
HydroCen Labs
Research Council Infrastructure project for to establish research infrastructure for Hydropower, hydrologic and hydraulic research. Investments in and upgrading of the Norwegian hydraulic laboratory is a major part of the project (2020 - 2024)
Snow Projects
Various projects related to snow properties, snow distribution, snow melt and modelling.
Flood tunnel
Study of techno-economic potential in combining flood tunnels with hydropower to finance the flood risk reduction on existing infrastructure with minimized environmental impacts
