Combined floating breakwater and wave energy converter systems have the potential to
provide a cost-effective solution to offshore power supply and coastal protection. This will …

The high cost of power generation impedes commercial-scale wave power operations. The
objective of this work is to provide a cost-sharing solution by combining wave energy …

A pile-restrained floating wave energy converter (WEC) array is proposed as an alternative
to a single floater of the size of the array for use as a floating breakwater. The …

The hydrodynamic and power capture performance of an asymmetric floating device called
“Dolphin” wave energy converter (WEC) integrated with a fixed breakwater has been …

Oil spills are a serious environmental problem. To better support risk assessment and
pollution control for oil spills, a good understanding of oil transport in the environment is …

Abstract International Maritime Organization (IMO) has stated that the direct assessment for
the pure loss of stability, one of the typical stability failure modes, is necessary for ship …

Ship capsizing in stern quartering wave is very complicate with a strong correlation to the
stability failure modes proposed in second-generation intact stability criteria. It is of great …

The primary objective of this research is to demonstrate advanced surveying methods and
techniques for coastal erosion identification and monitoring in a densely human-populated …

A comparison of a tidal turbine's performance and structural loads is conducted using lab-
scale numerical models and experimental testing under multiple current-only and wave …

The present study aims to evaluate the difference in the fluid-dynamic behavior of an
overtopping wave energy converter under the incidence of irregular waves based on a …
