Cost-Effective Optimization of an Array of Wave Energy Converters in Front of a Vertical Seawall

The present paper focuses on investigating the cost-effective configuration of an array of wave energy converters (WECs) composed of vertical cylinders situated in front of a vertical seawall in irregular waves. First, the hydrodynamic calculations are performed using a WAMIT commercial code based o...
