Fundamental formulae for wave-energy conversion [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2015
The time-average wave power that is absorbed from an incident wave by means of a wave-energy conversion (WEC) unit, or by an array of WEC units—i.e. oscillating immersed bodies and/or oscillating water columns (OWCs)—may be mathematically expressed in ...
