Real-Time, Targeted Imaging of Turbine-Marine Life Interactions
March 2017 – February 2019
The research goal is to redesign and validate a dynamic mount to improve targeted real-time imaging of marine life in the near-field zone of a tidal turbine. The adjustable mount will enable imaging sensors to be aimed directly facing the tidal turbine.

Finite Element Analysis to Assess Fish Mortality from Interactions with Tidal Turbine Blades
February – December 2017
The research project used finite element analysis (FEA) to simulate the impact of a tidal turbine blade on fish, and assess whether mortality of marine life can be expected in such an event.
