Flow curvature effects on dynamic behaviour of a novel vertical axis tidal current turbine: numerical and experimental analysis [PDF]
The paper deals with performances analysis of vertical axis turbine to exploit tidal marine currents. Flow curvature effects on performences of a novel vertical axis turbine have been investuigated. It has been shown that the flow curvature effect allows

A Numerical Study of Long-Return Period Near-Bottom Ocean Currents in Lower Cook Inlet, Alaska
Lower Cook Inlet (LCI) is an important waterway with very large tides and high marine productivity. Oceanographic forcing in LCI is complex due to a combination of tides, seasonal winds, and large freshwater discharges, as well as inflow from the Alaska ...

Hydrodynamic simulation experiment of tidal pump in strait waters [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Tidal phenomena, characterized by the rise and fall of sea surface levels, play a critical role in marine dynamics, including the formation of upwelling and downwelling currents.

The classic, and most effective way to prevent the spread of oil spilled in harbors is by surrounding the spill with a floating barrier, or boom In calm water, with no currents, early devices made from telephone poles and canvas were more or less effective In the presence of currents, however, and particularly with larger spills, the problem rapidly ...

Analysis of tidal currents in the North Sea from shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler data
North Sea tidal currents are determined by applying harmonic analysis to ship-borne acoustic Doppler current profiler data recorded from 1999 to 2016, covering large areas of the northern North Sea.
