An oscillating water column (OWC) is designed for the extraction and conversion of wave energy into usable electrical power, rather than being a standalone renewable energy source. This review paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the mathematical m...

This study estimates wave energy for the Moroccan Atlantic coast using SWAN, a third-generation wave model, covering a period of 30 years, from 1991 to 2020. The model is forced by the wind from the ERA-5 reanalysis dataset and uses boundary conditions g...

The wave-energy excitation of point absorbers is highly associated with their resonant movement, and harmonic characteristics are of increasing concern in affecting resonance. However, the commonly used linearized power take-off (PTO) systems underestima...

The evolution of renewable energy technologies may surmount fossil fuel disadvantages. Wave energy is considered one of the best alternatives to fossil energy due to its advantages. The 40-year (1979?2018) spatio-temporal distribution of wave energy is p...
