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 …

Abstract Model predictive control (MPC) has achieved considerable success in the process
industries, with its ability to deal with linear and nonlinear models, while observing system …

With the recent sharp increases in the price of oil, issues of security of supply, and pressure
to honor greenhouse gas emission limits (eg, the Kyoto protocol), much attention has turned …

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 …

Control of wave energy converters (WECs) has been very often limited to hydrodynamic
control to absorb the maximum energy possible from ocean waves. This generally ignores or …

This paper reviews key issues in the physical and numerical modelling of marine renewable
energy systems, including wave energy devices, current turbines, and offshore wind …

Harnessing energy from ocean waves, although not a new concept, is beginning to gain
traction in the renewable energy research community. This largely untapped energy …

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 …

A novel strategy for the real-time control of oscillating wave energy converters (WECs) is
proposed. The controller tunes the oscillation of the system such that it is always in phase …

The decarbonisation of the energy system will imply the use of unexplored locations and
technologies. In this sense, generation of green H 2 in far-offshore farms may be an …
