Numerical Analysis and Parameter Optimization of Portable Oscillating-Body Wave Energy Converters
… the performance of small-sized, portable, oscillating-body wave energy converters (WECs). Two types of oscillating body WECs were studied: bottom hinged and two-body attenuator. For the bottom-hinged device, the goal was to show the feasibility of an oscillating surge WEC and desalination …

Co-design Investigation and Optimization of an Oscillating-Surge Wave Energy Converter
… in order to reach a fully optimal design for an oscillating-surge wave energy converter. A width and height sweep serves as a brute force geometry optimization while optimizing the power take-off components and controls using a pseudo-spectral method for each geometry. An investigation of …
