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.

- Journal Article:
Want et al.
A novel system was developed to deploy settlement panels to monitor biofouling growth in situ and evaluate antifouling coatings at depths representative of operational conditions of full-scale marine renewable energy devices. Biofouling loading, species diversity, and succession were assessed at depths ranging from 25-40 m at four tests sites in Orkney (UK) featuring extreme wave and…

… 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 …

… 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. …
