Field Observations of Scour Behavior around an Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converter

Field Observations of Scour Behavior around an Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converter

This study provides the first ever published measurements of scour and morphological change around an Oscillating Water Column (OWC) Wave Energy Converter (WEC) device at a real-world site, with the intention of informing future designs to reduce costs of the technology. A 200-kW prototype OWC WEC w...
