On the S-shaped floaters for a Wavestar-like wave energy converter with an I-shaped mechanical power take-off

A numerical wave energy converter (WEC) similar to the Wavestar WEC with eight units, each comprising an I-shaped power take-off (PTO), was studied with the cylindrical-hemispherical (C-HS) and S-shaped floaters. Efforts were made to examine the effects of the floater-geometry change on the PTO powe...
