Wave Power Absorption by Arrays of Wave Energy Converters in Front of a Vertical Breakwater: A Theoretical Study
The present paper deals with the theoretical evaluation of the efficiency of an array of cylindrical Wave Energy Converters (WECs) having a vertical symmetry axis and placed in front of a reflecting vertical breakwater. Linear potential theory is assumed, and the associated diffraction and motion ra...
