The effect of uncertainty on tidal stream energy resource estimates

The effect of uncertainty on tidal stream energy resource estimates / Monika Johanna Kreitmair.

This thesis is focused on river and tidal stream power assessment, focussing particularly on uncertainties in power estimates resulting from inaccurate characterisation of bed roughness and turbine drag. It presents analytical and numerical models for the transfer of these uncertainties through to t...
