David Roger Lande-Sudall
Field of work
David is an Associate Professor in Marine Engineering in the Department of Mechanical and Marine Engineering at the Western Norway University of Applied Sciences (HVL). David also leads the Water, Wind and Waves (W3) research group and is currently Principal Investigator on the RCN-funded FRIPRO project, HYDROMORE – HYDROdynamic Mooring analysis for Ocean Renewable Energy. After completing his PhD in Co-location of Offshore Wind and Tidal Stream Turbines from the University of Manchester, UK, David’s research now focusses on ocean renewable energy devices (offshore wind, tidal stream and wave), with lab-scale testing in MarinLab to validate numerical modelling of hydrodynamic interactions. David teaches on the Marine Technology and Sustainable Energy Technology master’s programmes, in subjects: MAS532 Numerical Methods in Hydrodynamics, and MAS304 Experimental Methods for Marine Engineers.
