Effect of Wavelength on Turbine Performances and Vortical Wake Flows for Various Submersion Depths

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
When tidal turbines are deployed in water areas with significant waves, assessing the surface wave effects becomes imperative. Understanding the dynamic impact of wave–current conditions on the fluid dynamic performance of tidal turbines is crucial. This

Role of Fiber Sizing in Interfacial Relaxation, Water Uptake and Fatigue Properties of Acrylic‐Matrix Composites

Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 18, Page 16541-16555, 20 September 2026.
Characterisation of glass fibre reinforced acrylic with acrylic‐tailored or multi‐compatible sizing agents. ABSTRACT Fiber‐reinforced infusible acrylic monomer resins are of interest as recyclable alternatives to epoxy and other thermoset resin composites, but the novelty of these resins causes published studies on acrylic‐matrix composites to often ...

Low Nest Success of Black‐Legged Kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla) at a Mainland Colony Is Not Associated With Disturbance From Walkers or Boats: Implications for Compensation for Offshore Renewables Impacts

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Offshore wind energy is rapidly expanding in the North sea foraging grounds of internationally important seabirds, with predicted impacts on their survival and productivity. Since reduction to breeding colony disturbance is a proposed compensation measure for these impacts, we used a seven‐year dataset of > 1400 black‐legged kittiwake nests at an ...

An experimental survey in the wake of a simulated tidal current turbine [PDF]

Journal of Marine Engineering & Technology, 2008
This paper presents two experimental test programmes, conducted in a water flow channel and a tow tank respectively, and devised to investigate the wake behind a simulated horizontal axis tidal current turbine. Both sets of experimental results have identified the wake as having a Gaussian-like shape and the wake deficit recovering gradually with ...
