Extracting wave energy is a promising solution for renewable energy production because of
the high energy intensity of ocean waves when compared to other renewable energy …

Over the last two decades, a large body of academic scholarship has been generated on
wave and tidal energy related topics. It is therefore important to assess and analyse the …

The present study aims at providing more data and insights for the hinged type WEC,
especially focusing on the two-body hinged raft WECs. Two WECs are considered: a well …

The oscillating water column (OWC) device is in a leading position for wave power
extraction but has not achieved fully commercial at the current stage. In addition to …

Hinged arrays have garnered increasing interest due to their potential to provide flexible and
adaptable solutions for the various challenges faced in ocean development. The …

Combining wave energy converters (WECs) with a floating breakwater provides a potential
approach to help develop commercial-scale wave power operations. This paper aims to …

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 …

Floating Photovoltaic (FPV) systems are emerging as a new type of ocean renewable
energy, offering advantages such as avoiding land use and promoting power generation …

Abstract Model identification for a hinged-raft wave energy converter (WEC) is investigated
in this paper, based on wave tank experiments and deep operator learning. Different from …

A mathematical model is developed to investigate the performance of a hybrid system
comprising semi-submersible floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT) coupled to an array of …
