A serpent-type wave energy converter

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The problem of the interaction of waves with a serpent-type wave energy converter was investigated, and a novel 3D analytical solution was derived. The optimal parameters of the energy converter were derived for the first time from wave energy principles.

Modelling and simulation of a wave energy converter [PDF]

open access: yesESAIM: Proceedings and Surveys, 2021
In this work we present the mathematical model and simulations of a particular wave energy converter, the so-called oscillating water column. In this device, waves governed by the one-dimensional nonlinear shallow water equations arrive from offshore, encounter a step in the bottom and then arrive into a chamber to change the volume of the air to ...
