The evolution of tidal stream turbines is increasing the feasibility of future tidal plants in shallow depth areas with mid-tidal ranges (<5 m). However, extreme events such as changes in bathymetry due to the access channel deepening of coastal ports an...

Cylindrical structures are widely used in offshore and marine engineering, but they may suffer from vortex-induced vibration under the influence of ocean or wave currents, which can lead to severe fatigue damage. In this study, we applied the open-source...

Upwelling is a widespread phenomenon in the ocean and plays key roles in the marine environment, marine fishery and air?sea carbon exchange. In coastal regions, the upwelling is usually modulated by tides and complex topography, but the dynamical mechani...
