Abstract

In assessing the power available from rivers and tides, it is important to take into account uncertainty that can affect the accuracy of resource estimates. Such uncertainty can arise from inexact specification of physical parameters (such as bed roughness, flow geometry, turbine drag, tidal components, etc.), mathematical modelling parameters (such as model assumptions, approximations, boundary conditions), and numerical parameters (such as grid resolution, time step). The thesis has focused on the effect of uncertainty in bed roughness coefficient and turbine drag on stream power estimates.
