Geotechnical Approach to Early-Stage Site Characterisation of Shallow Wave Energy Sites

Marine renewable energy is still in its infancy and poses serious challenges due to the harsh marine conditions encountered for wave or tidal installations and the survivability of devices. Geophysical and hydrodynamic initial site surveys need to be able to provide repeatable, reliable, and economi...
