Marine renewable energy (MRE) is still an emerging technology. As such, there is still a lack
of mature standards and guidance for the development and testing of these devices. The …

Achieving large-scale commercial exploitation of ocean wave energy inherently
encompasses the design and deployment of arrays of wave energy converters (WECs), in …

Climate change is driving the adoption of sustainable energy, with low-cost solar
photovoltaics and wind power at the forefront. However, land-constrained regions and …

Motivated by the lack of comprehensive experimental implementation and assessment of the
potential benefit that can be achieved with energy-maximising optimal control solutions for …

Wave energy is one of the most promising renewable energies available with its very large
resource. The waves generated by the wind field are steadier than the wind field itself …

Wave energy offers a promising renewable energy source, however, technologies
converting wave energy into useful electricity face many design challenges. This guide …

The development of new renewable energy technologies is generally perceived as a critical
factor in the fight against climate change. However, significant difficulties arise when …

For the physical model testing of wave energy converters (WECs) in the wave basin, it is
necessary to test the models in a small number of sea states. Previously, the H–T binning …

Currently, several WECs exist with different absorption mechanisms and subsystems.
Hence, a general formulation to describe the dynamics of all possible devices is a nontrivial …

Marine renewables–which include mainly wave, tidal and current energy–have been hailed,
for the past decades, as a potential solution to support the decarbonization of the society …
