Design and testing of a contra-rotating tidal current turbine [PDF]
, 2005 A contra-rotating marine current turbine has a number of attractive features: nearzero reactive torque on the support structure, near-zero swirl in the wake, and high relative inter-rotor rotational speeds.

Current structure in the Rhine region of freshwater influence [PDF]
, 1997 Observation with HF radar, ADCPs and conventional current meters in the Rhine ROFI system in the North Sea indicate that the dominant currents are due to tidal flow, with important contributions from winds and density-driven circulation.

On the Early In Situ Formation of Pluto's Small Satellites [PDF]
, 2018 The formation of Pluto's small satellites - Styx, Nix, Keberos and Hydra - remains a mystery. Their orbits are nearly circular and are near mean-motion resonances and nearly coplanar with Charon's orbit.

Measuring the neutron star tidal deformability with equation-of-state-independent relations and gravitational waves [PDF]
, 2018 Gravitational wave measurements of binary neutron star coalescences offer information about the properties of the extreme matter that comprises the stars. Despite our expectation that all neutron stars in the Universe obey the same equation of state, i.e.

Development of Depth-Limited Wave Boundary Layers over a Smooth Bottom
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 A theoretical and numerical study is carried out to investigate the transformation of the wave boundary layer from non-depth-limited (wave-like boundary layer) to depth-limited one (current-like boundary layer) over a smooth bottom. A long period of wave

Tidal Current Energy Resource Distribution in Korea
Energies, 2019 Korea is a very well-known country for having abundant tidal current energy resources. There are many attractive coastal areas for the tidal current power that have very strong currents due to the high tidal range and the acceleration through the narrow ...
