In the present study, the hydrodynamic performance of circular and concentric arrangements
of cone-cylinder-type heaving point absorbers around a Submerged Tension-Leg Platform …

In this paper, an active optimization method of a wave energy converter (WEC) array that
focuses on the characteristics of the random sea condition is proposed. Physical model tests …

This paper presents a novel Control Co-Design (CCD) methodology aimed at economically
optimising the layout of wave energy converter (WEC) arrays. CCD ensures the synergy of …

For floating renewable energy devices to become more cost-efficient and commercially
scalable, their mooring system designs must be low-cost and suited for large-scale …

In the present study, the numerical investigation is performed to analyse the hydrodynamic
