Development of efficient data assimilation methods for solute transport problems
(NUI Galway, 2018-09-18)
The solution of marine contaminant transport problems is a significant research topic in civil engineering. Typically, the problem is represented as a partial differential equation described by the non-stationary, ...
Development of advanced numerical models for concentrically braced steel frame members and components
(NUI Galway, 2018-09-18)
The behaviours of braced steel frame members and components are investigated in this project using finite element models that were developed to address the multi-scale mechanics of braced steel frame structures. The ...
Combined experimental testing and numerical modelling of a novel vertical axis tidal turbine
(NUI Galway, 2018-11-30)
This research presents a study of a novel vertical axis tidal turbine (VATT) – the GKinetic turbine – using experimental testing of scale devices and numerical modelling. The primary aims of the thesis were: (1) to assess ...
