Regular biography
Tim Stallard is a Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at The University of Manchester. His research focuses on offshore and renewable energy engineering, particularly on predictive models for unsteady flow-structure-interaction problems in tidal and wind energy systems. His work involves numerical modelling, physical experiments, and field data campaigns, often in collaboration with environmental scientists and economists. Stallard is involved in several research projects, including the EPSRC Supergen Offshore Renewable Energy Hub and the EU Interreg TIGER project. He supervises PhD students and is associated with the University's Hydrodynamics Laboratory.
Scholar-generated biography
Tim Stallard is a researcher at the University of Manchester with a focus on tidal and wave energy technologies. His work explores the dynamics of tidal turbine wakes, turbulent flows, and the interactions between wave energy converters. Stallard's research includes experimental and computational studies of tidal stream turbines, wave hydrodynamics, and the economic implications of marine energy systems. He has investigated the effects of velocity shear, turbulence, and opposing waves on turbine performance, as well as the design and optimization of wave energy converters. His contributions span both experimental and numerical methods, addressing challenges in offshore renewable energy systems.
