The ocean contains a huge amount of renewable energy. There is a tremendous need to
develop new ocean energy harvesting technology for long-term and self-sustained global …

In this work, a mechanical power take-off system (PTO) is proposed to be installed in a small-
scale wave energy converter (WEC) to transfer wave power to electricity. Two pairs of one …

Powering desalination processes with renewable energy is a promising solution to address
the global issue of water shortage with minimum carbon footprint and environmental impact …

In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in renewable energies in view of the
fact that fossil fuels are the leading cause of catastrophic environmental consequences …

The design of a wave energy converter (WEC) is a many-sided and important assignment
that determines its future technical and economic viability. Presently, there is a lack of …

Abstract Energy Capture Spectrum (ECS) and Wave Height Take-Off (WHTO) are two
methods for evaluating the energy extraction of a wave energy converter (WEC) by treating …

In this paper, a spring-mounted floating body was numerically investigated with 2-
dimensional simulations to examine the effects of distance between floating bodies on the …

Optimizing the geometry and increasing the efficiency through PTO control of wave energy
converters require the development of effective reduced-order models that predict their …

Oscillating wave surge converters (OWSCs) are generally of rectangular geometries. What
kind of flap shape is better is still not clear. Thus, this study proposes some bionic flaps by …

Sažetak In this study, with respect to wave energy generation technology, a new scheme is
proposed for oscillating-buoy type wave energy conversion. A three-dimensional model of a …
