Hydrodynamic and economic modelling of tidal current energy conversion systems. (2008)
Thesis
MELVILLE, G.T. 2008. Hydrodynamic and economic modelling of tidal current energy conversion systems. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis.

This thesis examines the contribution of computational modelling to the development of the tidal current energy industry, against the background of increasing commercial, government, academic and public interest. It does this through the practical ap... Read More about Hydrodynamic and economic modelling of tidal current energy conversion systems..

Bioavailability of organic contaminants in sediments. (2008)
Thesis
YATES, K. 2008. Bioavailability of organic contaminants in sediments. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis.

The bioavailability of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and chlorobiphenyls (CBs) in sediments is largely dependent on the freely dissolved concentration of these pollutants. However, measuring these is challenging, due to the low concentratio... Read More about Bioavailability of organic contaminants in sediments..
