Analysis, optimization and demonstration of a new concept of hydrokinetic turbine based on oscillating hydrofoils
A new concept of hydrokinetic turbine based on oscillating hydrofoils is investigated. The objective of this study is to analyze the unsteady hydrodynamics of oscillating foils, to optimize their motions for maximum power extraction and to demonstrate in practice the po...
