This site-wide search returns results for all documents and events in Tethys Engineering, prioritizing the best matches. Partial word matches are returned (e.g. "engineer" finds "engineering"), but every entered term must be found. If you don't find any results, try reducing the number of words entered or removing special characters. Filters to the right can help narrow your search. Tethys Engineering features an integrated search with other marine renewable energy databases in PRIMRE - click the buttons below "Showing Results for" to search other integrated databases.

… lack of infrastructure to support in-water testing. A small number of established permanent test sites exist, but these sites are often prohibitively expensive to build and operate. The … objective of this project was to develop a concept design for a small deployable marine energy test system. The solution described is a self-contained system with the capability to monitor the local environmental conditions, host and test one small wave energy converter (typically <1-kW power generation), and collect and store …

… with an existing tidal energy converter (TEC), Evopod 1 kW floatable prototype, in a real test case scenario (Faro Channel, Ria Formosa, Portugal). A baseline marine geophysical, hydrodynamic and ecological study based on the experience collected on the test site is presented. The collected data was used to validate a hydro-morphodynamic model, allowing …
