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.

… 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 hydrodynamic and wave models of the …

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…

Myers et al.
This report offers guidance for the matching of wave and tidal energy devices to marine energy sites and also for interaction between devices that make up an array. At the stage of writing this document arrays are in their infancy with most development focussing upon individual commercially viable devices tested in real sea conditions. There is however sufficient understanding and research to…
