Although wave energy prototypes have been proposed for more than 100 years, they have
still not reached full commercialisation. The reasons for this are varied, but include the …

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

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 …

For the research and development (R&D) of wave energy converters (WECs), numerical
wave tanks (NWTs) provide an excellent numerical tool, enabling a cost-effective testbed for …

With an increasing focus on climate action and energy security, an appropriate mix of
renewable energy technologies is imperative. Despite having considerable global potential …

Even though ocean waves around the world are known to contain high and dense amounts
of energy, wave energy harvesters are still not as mature as other forms of renewable …

This review focuses on the most suitable form of hydrodynamic modeling for the next
generation wave energy converter (WEC) design tools. To design and optimize a WEC, it is …

Wave energy has a significant part to play in providing a carbon-free solution to the world's
increasing appetite for energy. In many countries, there is sufficient wave energy to cater for …

Performing rigorous technical and commercial assessment of wave energy converters
(WECs) numerically, before engaging in expensive wave tank and open ocean tests, is vital …

An adjustable draft point absorber was recently proposed as a novel approach to improve
power absorption with constrained power take-off (PTO) capacities. The key feature of the …
