Development and assessment of a blade element momentum theory model for high solidity vertical axis tidal turbines
(Elsevier, 2020-01-20)
Tidal energy is an attractive renewable resource given its predictability. The production of reliable, efficient and cost-effective tidal energy turbines requires the development of computer models for assessment and design ...
Interactions, mechanisms and impact of future coastal urban flooding. A case study of Cork city
(Hydrology Ireland, 2020-11-17)
In coastal floodplains, high river flows and high coastal water levels can result in extensive flooding. Mechanisms of flooding play a crucial role in flood characteristics with distinctive differences in flood wave ...
A review study of water quality index models and their use for assessing surface water quality
(Elsevier, 2020-12-17)
The water quality index (WQI) model is a popular tool for evaluating surface water quality. It uses aggregation techniques that allow conversion of extensive water quality data into a single value or index. Globally, the ...
Assessment of water quality using Water Quality Index (WQI) models and advanced geostatistical technique
(Civil Engineering Research Association of Ireland (CERAI), 2020-08-27)
Water quality index (WQI) models are popular tools to evaluate the quality of water; as such they have been
developed and used by many agencies worldwide. However, the WQI model may generate excessive uncertainties in ...
Application of water quality index models to an Irish estuary
(Civil Engineering Research Association of Ireland (CERAI), 2020-08-27)
The paper investigates the application of different Water Quality Index (WQI) models for to estuarine waters. WQI models are aggregation based mathematical models that convert extensive water quality data into a single ...
