The components of the energy lost by currents flowing along tidal channels with large turbine arrays provide insights … about developing farms to generate electricity from tidal streams. The performance and economics of a farm are profoundly … affected by where a farm lies on the curve of the total power lost by the flow in relation to its peak at a total drag …

The energy available from tidal currents is substantial and considerable work has been conducted into determining the … size of the resource and what the large-scale consequences of extraction might be. This paper describes the work conducted … water column in a tidal flow. As might be expected, a wake is formed but there is considerable localized flow acceleration …

An assessment of nearshore wave energy resource along the Portuguese coast is presented, focusing on identify … procedure for shoreward wave transformation. Two alternative measures of the nearshore wave energy resource were considered, the … standard omni-directional wave power density and the more restricted normally-directed wave energy flux. …
