A spectral-domain wave-to-wire model of wave energy converters

Wave-to-Wire models play an important role in the development of wave energy converters. They could provide insight into the complete operating process of wave energy converters, from the power absorption stage to the power conversion stage. In order to cover a set of relevant nonlinear effects, wave-to-wire models are predominately...

ALK-PE: An efficient active learning Kriging approach for wave energy converter power matrix estimation

Wave energy is considered one of the most potential renewable energy. In the last two decades, many wave energy converters (WECs) have been designed to harvest energy from the ocean. Different power take-off systems are developed to maximize the power generation of WECs. However, the estimation of the power matrix of the WECs and annual power...
