Abstract: A hybrid method which couples a vortexlattice method (VLM) solver and a ReynoldsAveraged Navier–Stokes (RANS) solver is applied to simulate the interaction between a dynamic positioning (DP) thruster and a floating ...

Abstract: This work focuses on the study of the flow around a rigid cylinder with both particle image velocimetry (PIV) experiment and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. PIV measurements of the flow field downstream of ...

Abstract: This paper describes the use of a lifting line model in order to determine the optimum loading on a marine turbine's blades. The influence of the wake and its geometry is represented though the use of a full wake alignment ...
