NUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL MODELING OF AN ELECTRO-ACTIVE DEFORMABLE WAVE ENERGY CONVERTER

We can therefore assume that an array of nearshore WECs would easily withstand the force from a tsunami according to linear theory.. However, as previously noted, non linear

In particular, we will look at bounded and periodic solutions, and compare the energy performance of this novel WEC with respect to the one of wave energy converter without

In this device, waves governed by the one- dimensional nonlinear shallow water equations arrive from offshore, encounter a step in the bottom and then arrive into a chamber to

Nous pr´ esentons un cas de validation pour lequel les r´ esultats du mod` ele num´ erique sont compar´ es aux r´ esultats de la th´ eorie lin´ eaire d’Evans (1976) sur le cas
