Title: | On the effect of tsunami on nearshore wave energy converters | Authors: | O'Brien, Laura Renzi, Emiliano Dias, Frederic Christodoulides, Paul |
metadata.dc.contributor.other: | Χριστοδουλίδης, Παύλος | Major Field of Science: | Engineering and Technology | Field Category: | Electrical Engineering - Electronic Engineering - Information Engineering | Keywords: | Tsunami;Wave power technology | Issue Date: | 2012 | Source: | XXIII International Conference of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, Beijing, China,19-24 August 2012 | Link: | http://www.ictam2012.org/ | Conference: | International Conference of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics | Abstract: | With an increasing emphasis on renewable energy resources, wave power technology is fast becoming a realistic solution. The question posed here is whether a nearshore wave energy converter could withstand the force of an incoming tsunami. An analytical 3D model is developed within a linear theory and applied to an array of fixed plates. The time derivative of the velocity potential allows the hydrodynamic force to be found. The hydrostatic force can be found from the difference in free surface heights on either side of the device. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/4235 | Rights: | COPYRIGHT ICTAM 2012 | Type: | Conference Papers | Affiliation : | Cyprus University of Technology University College Dublin Centre de Mathematiques et de Leurs Applications |
