An integrated wave-tidal current power turbine is affected by both wave and tidal current forces, and its energy efficiency is closely related to the velocity and direction of the two forces. To improve the probability of the horizontal axis turbine reac...

A theoretical and numerical study is carried out to investigate the transformation of the wave boundary layer from non-depth-limited (wave-like boundary layer) to depth-limited one (current-like boundary layer) over a smooth bottom. A long period of wave...

To take advantage of the high tidal current velocity near the free surface, the horizontal axis turbine is installed, which inevitably causes hydrodynamic characteristics to effect the turbine by the waves. In this article, we established a numerical cal...

The morphological evolution of a tidal inlet is the combined result of tides and wind waves, which interact in a non-linear manner and over very different time-scales. Likewise, the presence of maritime structures built in the vicinity of the tidal inlet...

The drivers for coastal flooding may vary from extremely high intensity and persistent rainfall, morphological factors of the coastal area, to extreme waves from the ocean. This means that the flood vulnerability of a coastal area does not solely depend ...
