- Additional information
- This is the first paper presenting a reliability-based approach for calibration of the partial safety factors for the ultimate limit state design of tidal turbine components, which is essential for the development of standards for marine energy converters. This research contributed to the development and revision of the international standard IEC/TS 62600-2:2016 ‘Marine energy — Wave, tidal and other water current converters. Part 2: Design requirements for marine energy systems’ (Chair of UK subcommittee) and to the development of the DNV standard DNVGL-ST-0164 ‘Tidal turbines’. Contacts: Chair of UK subcommittee and Business Development Director – Wave & Tidal, DNV GL.
