Tidal Turbines’ Layout in a Stream with Asymmetry and Misalignment
A refined assessment of tidal currents variability is a prerequisite for successful turbine deployment in the marine environment. However, the numerical evaluation of the tidal kinetic energy resource relies, most of the time, on integrated parameters ...

In-Stream Energy by Tidal and Wind-Driven Currents: An Analysis for the Gulf of California
We analyzed the peak spring tidal current speeds, annual mean tidal power densities ( T P D ) and annual energy production ( A E P ) obtained from experiment 06.1, referred as the “HYCOM model” throughout, of the three dimensional

Determining the galactic mass distribution using tidal streams from globular clusters [PDF]
We discuss how to use tidal streams from globular clusters to measure the mass distribution of the Milky Way. Recent proper motion determinations for globular clusters from plate measurements and Hipparcos astrometry provide several good candidates for ...

A HOLISTIC METHOD TO SELECT TIDAL STREAM ENERGY HOTSPOTS [PDF]
Potential areas for tidal stream energy development are conventionally selected on the basis of resource assessments. For all the importance of the resource, there are other elements (technological, economic, spatial, etc.) that must be taken into account in this selection.

Potential environmental impact of tidal energy extraction in the Pentland Firth at large spatial scales : results of a biogeochemical model [PDF]
A model study was carried out of the potential large-scale (> 100 km) effects of marine renewable tidal energy generation in the Pentland Firth, using the 3-D hydrodynamics–biogeochemistry model GETM-ERSEM-BFM.
