Scour‐Conditioned Seismic Fragility Analysis of Monopile‐Supported Offshore Wind Turbines
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 947-967, 10 April 2026.ABSTRACT Monopile‐supported offshore wind turbines (MS‐OWTs) are increasingly deployed in seismic coastal regions, where they face compound risks from earthquake loading and seabed scour. While past studies have addressed these hazards separately, seismic fragility under evolving scour conditions remains insufficiently understood. This study introduces

The effect of tidal currents on the hydrodynamics of tidal turbine systems
BIO Web of ConferencesThe ocean is a highly potential source of renewable energy with various forms, including wave and tidal energy. Due to its vast composition, the ocean stores and transfers significant amounts of energy. This study focuses on analyzing tidal dynamics that affect the stability of tidal turbines.

Evaluation of the durability of composite tidal turbine blades [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2013 The long-term reliability of tidal turbines is critical if these structures are to be cost effective. Optimized design requires a combination of material durability models and structural analyses. Composites are a natural choice for turbine blades, but there are few data available to predict material behaviour under coupled environmental and cycling ...

Evaluating Mechanical Strength in Vertical-Axis Tidal Turbines: A Comparative Study of Internal Blade Structure and Material Selection through CFD Simulation [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesDue to the density of water, tidal turbine blades are subject to significantly greater stresses than wind turbine blades. Multiple blade failures occurred during prototype testing as a result of loading conditions and protracted exposure to seawater ...

Review of tidal turbine wake modelling methods
International Marine Energy Journal, 2020 Enabling Future Arrays in Tidal (EnFAIT) is an EU Horizon 2020 flagship tidal energy project. It aims to demonstrate the development, operation and decommissioning of the world’s largest tidal array (six turbines), over a five-year period, to prove a ...

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 1935-1951, April 2026.This paper aims to provide a robust design approach for HAWTs operating in shear flow. This study fills a critical research gap by integrating BEM and vortex theories for blade design in non‐homogeneous inflow conditions. The authors of the paper made an effort to develop and test an experimentally unsophisticated model of a turbine working in shear ...

Two-scale momentum theory for very large wind farms [PDF]
, 2016 A new theoretical approach is proposed to predict a practical upper limit to the efficiency of a very large wind farm. The new theory suggests that the efficiency of ideal turbines in an ideal very large wind farm depends primarily on a non-dimensional ...

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Acoustic cameras, or imaging sonars, are often used to monitor marine energy sites in regions where the water is too dark or turbid for optical sensing. To do so more effectively, scientists are investigating automated detection methodologies to use on these data.
