A detailed assessment of the wave energy resource at the atlantic marine energy test site
Atan, Reduan; Goggins, Jamie; Nash, Stephen (MDPI AG, 2016-11-18)Wave characteristic assessments of wave energy test sites provide a greater understanding of prevailing wave conditions and are therefore extremely important to both wave energy test site operators and clients as they can ... -
An integrated measurement and modeling methodology for estuarine water quality management
Hartnett, Michael; Nash, Stephen (Elsevier BV, 2015-01-01) -
Forecasting of surface currents via correcting wind stress with assimilation of high-frequency radar data in a three-dimensional model
Ren, Lei; Nash, Stephen; Hartnett, Michael (Hindawi Limited, 2016-01-01)This paper details work in assessing the capability of a hydrodynamic model to forecast surface currents and in applying data assimilation techniques to improve model forecasts. A three-dimensional model Environment Fluid ... -
High-resolution flood modeling of urban areas using msn_flood

Investigations into influences of wind field resolution on simulating surface currents for galway bay
Ren, Lei; Nagle, Diarmuid; Nash, Stephen; Hartnett, Michael (Elsevier BV, 2017-10-01) -
Modelling phytoplankton dynamics in a complex estuarine system
Nash, Stephen; Hartnett, Michael; Dabrowski, Tomasz (Thomas Telford Ltd., 2011-01-01)The primary objective of this research was to develop a generic methodology for numerical modelling of the water quality within estuarine systems; in particular, this research focused on modelling nutrient dynamics and ... -
Observation and modeling of tide- and wind-induced surface currents in galway bay
Ren, Lei; Nash, Stephen; Hartnett, Michael (Elsevier BV, 2015-10-01) -
The effect of wind forcing on modeling coastal circulation at a marine renewable test site
Ren, Lei; Nagle, Diarmuid; Hartnett, Michael; Nash, Stephen (MDPI AG, 2017-12-12)The hydrodynamic circulation in estuaries is primarily driven by tides, river inflows and surface winds. While tidal and river data can be quite easily obtained for input to hydrodynamic models, sourcing accurate surface ... -
Towards a low-cost modelling system for optimising the layout of tidal turbine arrays
Nash, Stephen; Olbert, Agnieszka Indiana; Hartnett, Michael (MDPI AG, 2015-11-30)In the long-term, tidal turbines will most likely be deployed in farms/arrays where energy extraction by one turbine may significantly affect the energy available to another turbine. Given the prohibitive cost of experimental ...
