The world's oceans, covering approximately 71% of the Earth's surface, harbor vast wave
energy resources, offering a potential solution to the pressing energy crisis and …

As the two-body heaving wave energy converter (TBH-WEC) moves toward more
commercial and large-scale applications, it usually has to be deployed in the form of arrays …

Wave energy is a huge renewable energy resource with great potential for development. It
can be used to power monitoring sensors on offshore work platforms and bridges. In this …

Based on linear potential flow theory, this study investigates the hydrodynamic performance
of a horizontal cylinder wave energy converter (WEC) in front of a wall. The wall is assumed …

A new wave energy converter is proposed in this paper, consisting of three split heave point
absorbers, combined with a taut-moored floating turbine. It is adapted to the waves in the …

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are one of the most important means of ocean
exploration. However, the restricted energy supply poses a significant challenge to the …

A concept of utilizing heaving oscillators inside a ship as a means of capturing wave energy
is proposed, drawing inspiration from the two-body self-contained wave energy point …

A series of 1: 40 model tests are carried out to study the dynamic responses of a point
absorber moored by three taut nylon ropes under irregular wave conditions. The …

In the present study, the numerical investigation is performed to analyse the hydrodynamic
performance of circular and concentric arrangements of cone-cylinder-type heaving point …

To investigate the conditions where wave energy resource is sparse, a novel semi-
submersible floating-array-buoy wave energy converter (SFABWEC) system was proposed …
