Evaluation of the durability of composite tidal turbine blades [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical 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 ...

The effects of breath holding during high‐intensity land‐based ergometry in swimmers

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 13, July 2026.
Abstract The aim of this study was to compare cardiorespiratory responses during high‐intensity land‐based exercise between free‐breathing and breath‐holding conditions in swimmers. Twenty varsity swimmers (20 ± 2 years, 10 females) performed 20 s bouts of simultaneous arm and leg ergometry exercise at high intensity (total power output = 606 ± 76 W ...

Rotor Loading Characteristics of a Full-Scale Tidal Turbine

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
Tidal turbines are subject to highly dynamic mechanical loading through operation in some of the most energetic waters. If these loads cannot be accurately quantified at the design stage, turbine developers run the risk of a major failure, or must choose

Review of tidal turbine wake modelling methods

open access: yesInternational 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 ...

Life Cycle Environmental Impacts and Socio‐Economic Implications of Tidal Electricity Generation and Storage in the UK

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2026.
If tidal electricity generation and storage replaced natural gas and battery storage by 2050, it could reduce the climate change impact of UK grid electricity by 71%, saving up to 4.4 Mt CO2 eq./y. Most other environmental impacts would be reduced by up to 24%. However, high costs and low public acceptability hinder its deployment. ABSTRACT Tidal range

Oxygen Supplementation Improves Oxygen Uptake Kinetics and Exercise Performance in PAH and CTEPH Patients

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2026.
In patients with pulmonary vascular diseases (PAH and CTEPH), supplemental oxygen (FiO2 0.3), compared to room air (FiO2 0.21) improved peak exercise capacity (peak V̇O2), peak sustainable exercise (V̇O2 at GET), and V̇O2 kinetics and the onset of exercise.

An Experimental Study on the Darrieus-Savonius Turbine for the Tidal Current Power Generation

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2008
The Darrieus turbine is popular for tidal current power generation in Japan. It is simple in structure with straight wings rotating around a vertical axis, so that it has no directionality against the motion of tidal flow which changes its direction ...

Tidal turbine array modelling

open access: yes, 2014
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used in this thesis to model wind and tidal stream turbines and to investigate tidal turbine fence performance. There are two primary objectives of this work. The first is to develop and validate an actuator line method for the simulation of wind and tidal turbines which applies the blade forces to the flow field ...
