Evaluating the Risk of Collision of Seals Swimming Within Metres of Operating Tidal Turbines
ABSTRACT We used imaging sonar to continuously monitor wildlife at an operational tidal turbine in the Pentland Firth, Scotland, between May 2022 and June 2023. Of 704 detected seal tracks, 347 occurred during turbine operation and 122 of these were detected directly upstream of the rotating blades in the horizontal plane.

Development of a Novel Modified Mean‐Line Approach for Performance Prediction of Axial Compressors
ABSTRACT There is significant importance in accurate prediction of axial flow compressor characteristics at different conditions. Different techniques and models have been proposed for performance prediction of axial compressors. Because of its lower computational cost and high speed the meanline algorithm has been widely applied in preliminary design ...
