Code-to-code nonlinear hydrodynamic modelling verification for wave energy converters: Wec-sim vs. nlfk4all [PDF]
, 2021 In the wave energy conversion field, simulation tools are crucial for effective converter and controller design, but are often prone to become very casespecific, in both structure and parameter selection. This is due to majorly different working principles and diverse importance of nonlinear effects, at times requiring adhoc modelling approaches.

Modelling the Dynamics and Forcesof Wave Energy Converters using WEC-Sim
, 2020 The waves traveling on the surface of the world’s oceans carry atremendous amount of energy. The ability to convert this energy forhuman use has the potential to help solves the worlds energy problem. Adirect-drive linear generator point absorber is a wave energy converter(WEC) that aims to reduce the complexity of the overall system andshelter the ...

Midfidelity model verification for a point-absorbing wave energy converter with linear power take-off
International Marine Energy Journal, 2022 In the preliminary design stage of a wave energy converter (WEC), researchers need fast and reliable simulation tools. High-fidelity numerical models are usu- ally employed to study the wave-structure interaction, but the computational cost is demanding.
