Wave energy provides a renewable and clear power for the future energy mix and fights
against climate change. Currently, there are many different wave energy converters, but their …

Probably the biggest challenge for wave energy is to ensure survival in harsh offshore
conditions, in order to reduce costs for offshore repair operations and downtime, and …

Ocean wave energy is a rapidly developing sector and has the potential to contribute a
significant share to the global green energy transformation. However, nearshore coastal …

Considering the prospect to use marine energy to power ocean platforms, a double-wing
wave energy converter suitable for power supply for them is proposed. Based on the …

Wave power capture applied on a squid jigging ship is assessed in this paper; this would
decrease the operating cost of ships and reduce carbon emissions. Firstly, the history of …

Due to its simplicity and high reliability, Oscillating Water Column (OWC) wave energy
conversion devices hold great promise for practical applications. The optimization of OWC …

Based on a two-month simultaneous in-situ wave dataset of two observational sites in the
coastal regions of the northern South China Sea, the variabilities and richness of the wave …

This paper presents the results of a field experimental campaign on a 1: 15 scaled prototype
of an innovative floating multi-purpose platform, developed within “The Blue Growth …

Many studies in ocean engineering and related fields need physical wave modelling in
controlled environments. Monitoring the free surface elevation over time is essential to …

The high investment and low return of wave energy converters (WECs) seriously hamper
their large-scale commercial application. The integration of WECs and floating breakwaters …
