Large Eddy Simulation Of Tidal Turbines
, 2017 Understanding of hydrodynamics involved in the ow around tidal turbines is essential to enhance their performance and resilience, as they are designed to operate in harsh marine environments. During their lifespan, they are subjected to high velocities with large levels of turbulence that demand their design to be greatly optimised.

Sex Differences in Durability Following Heavy Intensity Cycling Exercise in Trained Athletes
Scandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 36, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT The ability to withstand impairments in key physiological variables during prolonged exercise, known as “durability,” is emerging as an important factor in cycling performance. While females possess physiological characteristics that could confer enhanced durability relative to males, little is known about potential sex differences.

Optimal design of a tidal turbine
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2012 An optimal design procedure has been applied to improve the design of an open-center tidal turbine. A specific software developed in C++ enables to generate the geometry adapted to the specific constraints imposed to this machine. Automatic scripts based on the AUTOGRID, IGG, FINE/TURBO and CFView software of the NUMECA CFD suite are used to evaluate ...
