Tidal stream turbines (TSTs) harness the kinetic energy of tides to generate electricity by rotating the rotor. Biofouling will lead to an imbalance between the blades, resulting in imbalanced torque and voltage across the windings, ultimately polluting ...

The tidal currents of the Gulf of Morbihan reach up to 3.5 m/s within a narrow (200 m large) channel connecting the sea to the inner part of the gulf. In this study, a Telemac2D model validated with a large dataset of field measurements is used to assess...
