CFD‐Based Hydrodynamic Performance Analysis of a Convex Overtopping Wave Energy Converter

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Overtopping wave energy converters (WECs) are increasingly recognized as high‐potential coastal energy harvesters, where hydrodynamic efficiency is intrinsically regulated by ramp geometry and nonlinear wave–structure interaction mechanisms. This study presents a numerical investigation of the hydrodynamic performance of a convex‐type overtopping ...

From Hydrocarbon to CO2 Storage: Unveiling the Potential of the Miocene Lille John Member in the Danish North Sea

Basin Research, Volume 37, Issue 5, September–October 2025.
Depositional evolution of the upper Miocene complex. ABSTRACT To achieve net‐zero carbon emissions by 2050, gigatonnes of CO2 must be captured and stored in the subsurface. Screening and exploration of prospective storage sites have thus gained momentum in recent years.
