Dynamics Modeling of a Wave Glider With Optimal Wing Structure
IEEE Access, 2018 The wave glider is a new concept marine robot that can make use of wave energy to obtain thrust. Differ from the traditional unmanned vehicle, the wave glider consists of the floating body, the connecting tether, and the submerge glider.

Numerical investigation of a wave glider in head seas [PDF]
Ocean Engineering, 2018 A wave glider comprises a surface boat, which harvests energy from wave and solar power, a submerged glider containing six pairs of tandem hydrofoils and a tether connecting them in between. This paper presents a numerical simulation to predict the wave glider dynamic performance in head seas with the aid of computational fluid dynamic (CFD) method ...

Sea Surface Height Measurement Using a GNSS Wave Glider [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2018 AbstractTo overcome spatial and temporal limitations of sea surface height instruments such as tide gauges, satellite altimetry, and Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) buoys, we investigate the use of an unmanned, self‐propelled Wave Glider surface vehicle equipped with a geodetic GNSS receiver.
