Numerical and Experimental Investigation of the Dynamics of a U-Shaped Sloshing Tank to Increase the Performance of Wave Energy Converters

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
In this investigation, a comprehensive study was conducted on a U-shaped sloshing tank, based on reversing the classical treatment of such devices as motion stabilizers and using them instead to improve the performance of wave energy converters.

Marine Renewable Energies: Perspectives and Implications for Marine Ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2013
Countries with coastlines may have valuable renewable energy resources in the form of tides, currents, waves, and offshorewind.The potential to gather energy from the sea has recently gained interest in several nations, so Marine Renewable Energy Installations (hereinafter MREIs) will likely become very diffuse in the near future and determine a ...

A bioenergetics approach to understanding sex differences in the foraging behaviour of a sexually monomorphic species

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2022
Many animals show sexually divergent foraging behaviours reflecting different physiological constraints or energetic needs. We used a bioenergetics approach to examine sex differences in foraging behaviour of the sexually monomorphic northern gannet.
