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.

One of the challenges of generating electrical energy with a hydrokinetic turbine in Alaska rivers is the detrimental effect of woody debris in the water column. In order to mitigate this problem the questions of describing what types of debris might be encountered, the frequency of occurrence, the force of impact, and location in the water column need to be answered. The University of Alaska…
