Fractal-like actuator disc theory for optimal energy extraction

The limit of power extraction by a device which makes use of constructive interference, i.e. local blockage, is investigated theoretically. The device is modelled using actuator disc theory in which we allow the device to be split into arrays and these then into sub-arrays an arbitrary number of tim...
