Mathematical Framework for Hydromechanical Time-Domain Simulation of Wave Energy Converters

Efficient design of wave energy converters based on floating body motion heavily depends on the capacity of the designer to accurately predict the device's dynamics, which ultimately leads to the power extraction. We present a (quasi-nonlinear) time-domain hydromechanical dynamic model to simul...
