Within the scope of a changing energy market, wave energy has yet to reach a level of
commercial viability that enables it to become competitive with alternative energy sources …

Over the last two decades, a large body of academic scholarship has been generated on
wave and tidal energy related topics. It is therefore important to assess and analyse the …

The present study case examined the capability of Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Adaptive
Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS), M5P, and Random Forest (RF) soft-computing …

Layout optimization of wave energy offshore parks is a challenging task, as it encompasses
various design objectives and constraints attributed to the complex hydrodynamic …

Floating photovoltaic (PV) energy has been widely deployed in reservoirs, but its coastal
and offshore potential remains largely untapped. This work presents the first large-scale …

As the spectre of climate change looms large, there is an increasing imperative to develop
comprehensive risk assessment tools. The purpose of this work is to evaluate the evolution …

Coastal cities, as centres of human habitation, economic activity and biodiversity, are
confronting the ever-escalating challenges posed by climate change. In this work, a novel …

Estuarine environments, as dynamic low-lying transition zones between rivers and the open
sea, are vulnerable to sea level rise (SLR). To evaluate the potential impacts of SLR on …

Understanding the environmental effects of marine energy (ME) devices is fundamental for
their sustainable development and efficient regulation. However, measuring effects is …

Wave climate projection can provide useful information for climate change adaptation and
mitigation. This study explores the future variability of wave conditions in the Persian Gulf …
