Tidal Current Energy Resource Distribution in Korea

open access: yesEnergies, 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 ...

The Distribution of Shearing Stresses in a Tidal Current [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 1959
Summary Observations were made in a tidal current off Red Wharf Bay, Anglesey, North Wales. The frictional stress at the bottom, Fb, was determined from the velocity profile within the first zm above the bottom and found to be related to the velocity at I m by a quadratic law, Fb = kpUl2, where K has the value 3-5 x 10-3. The corresponding value of the

Interactions between Surface Waves, Tides, and Storm-Induced Currents over Shelf Waters of the Northwest Atlantic

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
A coupled wave–tide–circulation model is used to investigate wave–current interactions (WCIs) over the shelf waters of the Northwest Atlantic (NWA) during Hurricane Earl (2010). WCIs have substantial impacts on hydrodynamics in the upper ocean.

Development of Depth-Limited Wave Boundary Layers over a Smooth Bottom

open access: yesJournal 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
