Synopsis:
The efficient harnessing of offshore energy resources can significantly contribute to meeting the growing worldwide demand for energy. Offshore wind turbines (OWTs) have been commercially deployed in numerous offshore sites and wind farms. Wave energy converters (WECs) are a new, promising source of alternative clean energy, with significant benefits as compared to other forms of renewable energy. This book explains the development of numerical and physical models for these energy systems, and examines their functionality and structural integrity in both standalone and farm configurations. It will also provide design guides, theoretical principles, and engineering and MATLAB® examples.
