Computational model for calculating tracks of particles in the coastal ocean
Part of an on-line tool to allow users to drop virtual plastic in parts of NZ’s coastal ocean, enabling them to learn about connectivity in the coastal ocean. The computational particle-tracking model...
Computational model for optimising power produced from large tidal turbine farms in Cook Strait
A modelling framework for calculating power produced from large tidal turbine farms which can be used with an existing hydrodynamic model. The framework optimises turbine tuning to maximise average f...
