Clearly structured throughout the book is divided into two distinct parts.  \u003cp\u003ePart One provides the theoretical background to the subject and deals with the historical development of the harmonic method for the synthesis of tidal currents; the principles of fluid and tidal flow and the principles of device ducts, turbines and electrical systems. A review and analysis of more than forty tidal stream power proposals is also discussed.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart Two provides a comprehensive overview of current practice. The economic modelling of tidal stream power installations is covered with more than three hundred current meter records from around the world used to analyse the potential and cost of tidal stream power on a global basis.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHallmark Features:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e \u003cli\u003ereviews the tidal resources around the world\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ecomplete analysis of tidal stream power systems\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eincludes historical information on tidal science and biographical information on major figures\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003econcentrates on engineering physical geography rather than engineering specifics\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eincludes a website with a wide range of computer models, data and simulations\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJack Hardisty\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Environmental Physics at the University of Hull with research interests in sediment flux and wave and tidal renewable energy. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e07 July 2009\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWiley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWiley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9780470724514\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e344\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44378881327244,"sku":"9780470724514","price":154.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780470724514.jpg?v=1780110785","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780470724514","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
