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.

… A benign quarter scale test site for floating wave energy devices has been provided off the west coast of Ireland in a mn … wave model SWAN for the year 2000, and a non-directional wave recording buoy in situ since the test site’s inception in late 2005. Analysis of this data has shown that there are high …
- Conference Paper:
Lawrence et al.
… To support and improve the evaluation of the test results of wave energy and tidal energy generators, it is important to understand the detailed physical conditions at the test sites. EMEC has chosen DHI’s MIKE modelling technologies for studying water levels, currents and waves at their test sites. DHI has assisted EMEC in constructing numerical hydro- dynamic and wave models of the …

… of the environmental monitoring programme currently ongoing at Vattenfall’s/Tussa’s wave power test site "Maren", on the Norwegian west coast. The purpose of the environmental monitoring is … gain experiences about the design and management of an environmental monitoring programme and test a variety of monitoring methodologies and equipment. The primary environmental parameters …

… two months been tested in real ocean wave conditions. This first prototype was built mainly to test the overall concept in terms of survivability and energy extraction. The full scale … power absorption for different resistive loads. By European standards, the wave climate on the test site is poor, and during the test period the mean energy flux was slightly less than 1.4 kW/m. …

… difficulties forcing developers to rely on techniques like ongoing monitoring of small scale test sites and hydrodynamic modelling. This paper focuses on improving the representation of the … (OWCs) has provided frequency dependent transmission and reflection coefficients. Several test cases were created using MIKE 21 Spectral Wave Model developed by DHI Water and Environment. …

… of its buoy array and hydraulic pressure system (HPS) for wave-energy conversion. Field test data indicated that the energy-converting efficiency of the direct-drive design was … Matlab was set-up to study the energy output of the HPS-HAS under the wave conditions of the test site. It was shown that four buoys could charge ten accumulators in half an hour under local …
