Jarquin Laguna TU Delft Preface The thesis culminates my work in the field of tidal energy in order to complete my masters degree in Sustainable Energy Technology at TU Delft. These last few months have quite easily been the biggest learning experience of my life, requiring me to constantly keep out of the comfort zone of what I knew before. The knowl- edge, the skills and the work ethic required in this work have made me grow as an engineer and as a person. There are several people I would like to thank for helping me reach this point. First of all I would like to thank my committee for all the guidance they have provided in these months. Prof. Aarninkhoff, thank you so much for being so involved and providing your insights into the work during our meetings. Jeremy and Antonio, you have been excellent in supervising me and helping me at every stage of the work and I am very grateful. Christof, thank you for all your help in the turbines and also for all the feedback during our meetings.
