, 2017 Flapping Foil is an ongoing development project at NTNU Technology Transfer working on a new way of propulsion for boats. Their goal is to eliminate two of the biggest issues with boats today, the low efficiency of boat propellers and the high friction created when moving in the water surface.

Modelling of an oscillating hydrofoil, with a fluid-structure interaction approach
, 2020 As policies to fight greenhouse gas emissions are more and more demanding and as the global energy demand is constantly increasing, renewable energies are currently seen as an important contribution to the global energy mix. Among them, tidal energy has the advantage of a perfectly known and highly predictable intermittency. The present work is part of
