Semi-Analytical Solution of Optimization on Moon-Pool Shaped WEC
Polish Maritime Research, 2016 In order to effectively extract and maximize the energy from ocean waves, a new kind of oscillating-body WEC (wave energy converter) with moon pool has been put forward. The main emphasis in this paper is placed on inserting the damping into the equation

, 2011 Long before scientists ever put forward a reasoned description of the phenomenon based on fluid mechanics equations, men were aware of the power of ocean waves through observing natural phenomena. This awareness came from navigating at sea and coming into contact with the infamous “freak waves”, or from experiencing the damage caused onshore by storm ...
