Optimizing the Performance of Solo Duck Wave Energy Converter in Tide

Optimizing the Performance of Solo Duck Wave Energy Converter in Tide

The high efficiency performance of the Edinburgh Duck wave energy converter (WEC) in 2D regular wave tests makes it a promising wave energy conversion scheme. A solo Duck WEC will be able to apply the point absorber effect to further enhance its performance. Since released degree of freedom will dec...
