Although wave energy prototypes have been proposed for more than 100 years, they have
still not reached full commercialisation. The reasons for this are varied, but include the …

Unlike more established renewable energy conversion technologies, such as wind turbines,
wave power systems have reached neither commercial maturity, nor technological …

There are more than thousands of concepts for harvesting wave energy, and wave energy
converters (WECs) are diverse in operating principles, design geometries and deployment …

Even though ocean waves around the world are known to contain high and dense amounts
of energy, wave energy harvesters are still not as mature as other forms of renewable …

This review focuses on the most suitable form of hydrodynamic modeling for the next
generation wave energy converter (WEC) design tools. To design and optimize a WEC, it is …

The multiphysics system integration and modeling method, including hydrodynamic,
kinematic, and electromechanical models, were developed. A one-way plucking-driven …

Integrating wave energy converters into coastal structures such as breakwaters, seawalls or
jetties not only offers benefits in terms of construction costs but also improves wave energy …

Water wave interactions with arrays of wave energy converters are numerically investigated
based on the interaction theory. The converter is a heaving point absorber that can harness …

Abstract Model identification for a hinged-raft wave energy converter (WEC) is investigated
in this paper, based on wave tank experiments and deep operator learning. Different from …

This paper studies the multidisciplinary nature of two body wave energy converters by a
parametric study based on the Taguchi method which helps to understand the effect of …
