ABSTRACT This paper presents an overview of the CONFLOWS project, a collaborative effort between DNV, Marine Power Systems (MPS) and Durham University. The project investigates the effects of wake steering from aerodynamic, structural and economic modelling perspectives, aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding of its impact on performance and ...

Incorporating Particle Settling Enhancement in a Coarse‐Mode Deposition Model
Abstract Dry deposition rates are usually assumed to rely primarily on gravitational settling, with some enhancement due to interactions with surface elements. However, it is known through experiment, theory, and simulation that vertical velocities of particles in turbulent flows can be enhanced by hydrodynamic effects (often referred to as ...

Abstract Laboratory experiments measured velocity and bedload transport in vegetated channels under current‐dominated, combined wave‐current conditions. Waves and vegetation, respectively, introduced temporal and spatial heterogeneity in the velocity, which significantly impacted sediment transport rate.

Asymmetries in Anticyclone Catalyze Submesoscale Motions
Abstract Oceanic mesoscale eddies are often asymmetric, exhibiting horizontal deformation and vertical tilt, yet the implications of these structural asymmetries for finer‐scale dynamics remain poorly understood. Based on a series of high‐resolution numerical experiments, we found that asymmetric anticyclones act as potent catalysts for submesoscale ...

Abstract Laboratory experiments investigated how the presence of biofilm and particle size influenced deposition in both bare and vegetated channels. Both abiotic and biotic sediment beds were considered, with the biotic beds containing Extracellular Polymeric Substances (EPS). As current magnitude and turbulent kinetic energy increased, particles were
