Wave energy is substantial as a resource, and its potential to significantly contribute to the
existing energy mix has been identified. However, the commercial utilization of wave energy …

Unlike more established renewable energy conversion technologies, such as wind turbines,
wave power systems have reached neither commercial maturity, nor technological …

The unpredictable fluctuations of wave lead to an imbalance between energy supply and
demand. This article proposes a wave-driven compressed air energy storage system, which …

There are more than thousands of concepts for harvesting wave energy, and wave energy
converters (WECs) are diverse in operating principles, design geometries and deployment …

The level of awareness about ocean wave energy as a viable source of useful energy has
been increasing recently. Different concepts and methods have been suggested by many …

Ocean waves are a promising source of renewable energy. In this paper, we briefly
introduce the characteristics of ocean wave energy and summarize the principles of …

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the status of wave energy conversion (WEC)
technologies from a different perspective. Past studies based on WEC systems are …

Inefficiency and intermittency caused by high variabilities of wave properties are common
problems in existing wave energy technology. Resonant wave energy conversion …

Natural gas hydrates in the Shenhu area of the South China Sea occur in clayey silt
sediments, and its occurrence environment has low permeability characteristics, making it …

This work proposes a novel adaptive bistable power capture mechanism, which is applied to
a point absorber wave energy converter in regular waves. The adaptive bistable mechanism …
