Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT This paper provides improvements to a previously presented simple, accurate, lower order analytical model for predicting the performance of horizontal‐axis shrouded turbines for a wide range of shroud airfoil shapes varying in length, camber, and thickness. The new, extended model incorporates explicit quantitative predictions of those effects

Impacts of the renewable energy transition on global plant diversity: A review
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 87-115, January 2026.People and nature need a renewable energy transition to help address the growing, and catastrophic, effects of climate change. A sustainable energy transition involves rigorously examining the potential impacts on nature – including plant life – and creating pathways for impact mitigation that strike a clear balance between energy production and ...

The Variation in Wake Structure of a Tidal Stream Turbine with Flow Velocity [PDF]
, 2013 A combined Blade Element Momentum - Computational Fluid Dynamics (BEM-CFD) model is applied to a 10 m diameter tidal stream turbine blade and the supporting nacelle and tower structure in a 700 m long rectangular channel. The modelling approach is computationally efficient and is suitable for capturing the time-averaged influence of

Fuzzy Supervision Based-Pitch Angle Control of a Tidal Stream Generator for a Disturbed Tidal Input
Energies, 2018 Energy originating in tidal and ocean currents appears to be more intense and predictable than other renewables. In this area of research, the Tidal Stream Generator (TSG) power plant is one of the most recent forms of renewable energy to be developed ...
