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.

Grondeau and Guillou
In the context of the global energy crisis, developing renewable energies is of primal importance. Among the renewable resources available are tidal currents. Tidal currents can be exploited with tidal turbines. Different concepts of tidal turbine exist, we here investigate a vertical axis tidal turbine or VATT prototype made by HydroQuest and CMN. More precisely, we carry on numerical…
