  1. 1. Modeling wave behavior with linear wave theory

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Elsa Renström; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis aimed to look at the behaviours of the water beneath waves from a modeling and simulations point of view. We have investigated how to use Linear wave theory (LWT) to model the kinematic movements in water governed by free ocean waves. The model assumes the surface to consist of a superposition of sinusoidal waves. READ MORE

  3. 2. Ocean rogue wave analysis for the development of safer navigation systems. : A Thesis submitted to the University of Gävle for the degree of Bachelor of Mathematics

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Matematik

    Author : Sergio Manzetti; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Rogue waves are unexpectedly high waves of 2.5X the significant wave height and which occur in nearly all phases of nature, from  oceans, to fiber-optic cables and atmospheric air-masses. In the ocean, rogue waves pose a significant danger to shipping and fishing vessels and have been found to reach 27. READ MORE

  4. 3. Major Component Replacement on Floating Wind Turbines

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Kilian Galle; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Among the challenges that floating offshore wind (FOW) energy faces today, operation and maintenanc ecosts, and especially major component replacements (MCR), are an important cost reduction lever. MCRs are defined as any failure on a wind turbine requiring the change of an entire main component of the turbine, such as a gearbox, generator, blade, nacelle, etc. READ MORE

  5. 4. Model Development for Wave Energy Converter Arrays in the Frequency Domain

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Linn Fredriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics; Energy Physics; Energy; Renewable Energy; Wave Power; CorPower Ocean; Point Absorber; Array Modelling; Farm modelling; Fysik; Energifysik; Energi; Vågkraft; Förnyelsebar Energi;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a model has been developed to analyze the behavior of wave energy converter arrays in the frequency domain. This development serves the purpose of establishing an in-house model tool for array modelling for CorPower Ocean. READ MORE
