Tidal stream energy potential in the Shannon Estuary
Renewable Energy, 2022 The tidal and river in-stream energy resource in the Shannon Estuary (W Ireland) is investigated using of high-resolution numerical modelling and spatial analysis. Although freshwater discharges are large, their influence on the available resource is found to be all but negligible, the tide being the main driver of estuarine circulation.

Capital costs in tidal stream energy projects - A spatial approach [PDF]
Energy, 2016 Tidal stream energy projects involve high amounts of capital, for which ex-ante economic assessments are crucial. Unfortunately, the existing models to estimate the capital costs of a tidal stream energy project are often oversimplified.

Characteristics of the velocity profile at tidal-stream energy sites
Renewable Energy, 2017 Abstract Realistic oceanographic conditions are essential to consider in the design of resilient tidal-stream energy devices that can make meaningful contributions to global emissions targets. Depth-averaged or simplified velocity profiles are often used in studies of device performance, or device interaction with the environment.

The parameterisation of turbulence in the marine environment [PDF]
, 2016 There are many problems in the fields of flow modelling around structures and tidal stream energy yield analysis which require a thorough understanding of the turbulent and time-averaged flow speeds in marine environments.

Tidal-stream power assessment—A novel modelling approach
Energy Reports, 2020 An alternative approach for simulating turbine array energy capture, momentum sink-TOC, was developed to improve conventional methodologies for assessing tidal-stream energy resource.

Galilean Equivalence for Galactic Dark Matter [PDF]
, 2006 Satellite galaxies are tidally disrupted as they orbit the Milky Way. If dark matter (DM) experiences a stronger self-attraction than baryons, stars will preferentially gain rather than lose energy during tidal disruption, leading to an enhancement in ...

What causes the fragmentation of debris streams in TDEs? [PDF]
, 2020 A tidal disruption event (TDE) occurs when a star passes too close to a supermassive black hole and gets torn apart by its gravitational tidal field. After the disruption, the stellar debris form an expanding gaseous stream.

Tidal energy extraction modifies tidal asymmetry and transport in a shallow, well-mixed estuary
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Tidal energy extraction is increasingly being studied as a potential renewable energy resource in estuaries worldwide. Although it is understood that energy extraction via tidal stream turbines can modify currents and transport within estuaries, it is ...
