Scale model testing in wave basins is a necessary part of the development of marine
structures and marine renewable energy devices. Whilst many guidelines exist for the …

An important condition of any port-assembled floating offshore wind turbine concept is the
de-ballasted transport stage. As the hydrostatic and dynamic stability may vary greatly from …

In ocean engineering, accurate and efficient numerical simulations are crucial. Leveraging
axisymmetry vastly enhances the efficiency of a simulation, reducing a three-dimensional …

This chapter discusses the general theory of hydrodynamics as applied to wave energy
conversion (WEC). It first explains the fundamental concepts then introduces the …

Wave tank model testing is a commonly used method to assess the performance of Wave
Energy Converters (WECs). Wave data collected for testing can be obtained by different …
