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 facilitate the development of the wave energy conversion technology, a permitted field-test site offshore Keelung was established in 2011. The associated wave energy resources had been collected with a data buoy being deployed at the offshore boundary of the test site since 2012. This study presents the analysed results from May 2012 to May 2015. Typical …

… 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 …
