A study of the kinematic characteristics and energy conversion of waves generated by granular landslide

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi, 2023
The consequences of landslide waves are far beyond the landslide itself that has attracted widespread attention. The prediction and evaluation of this kind of disaster has always been difficult, and the precise description of landslide surge motion ...

High-Capacity Wave Energy Conversion by Multi-Float, Multi-PTO, Control and Prediction: Generalized State-Space Modelling With Linear Optimal Control and Arbitrary Headings

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Sustainable Energy, 2021
Wave energy converters with capacity similar to, or greater than, wind turbines are desirable for the supply of electricity to the grid. It is shown that this may be provided by multiple floats in a hinged raft-type configuration with multi-mode forcing.
