Experimental investigation of a distributed propulsion system by Mehta, Ronak Chittesh

“…These trends were synonymous for both 10° and 20° deflections of propellers as well. In addition, with an increase in deflection angle for propellers within the same throttle speed, lift and stall angle were seen to increase as well with the most increase of stall angle occurring with deflections at 35% throttle speed. …”

Wave Mechanics in Constructed Oyster Reefs and the Design of Nature-Based Coastal Adaptation by Brice, James Vincent

“…There has been great interest in the potential of constructed oyster reefs (CORs) to function as nature-based coastal protection infrastructure, but most projects to-date are designed primarily for wave attenuation and fail to consider both the environmental conditions necessary for long-term oyster reef sustainability as well as the importance of education and outreach in fostering environmental stewardship. …”
