Reliability‐based hull geometry optimisation of a point‐absorber wave energy converter with power take‐off structural reliability objectives

Abstract Recent studies have focused on optimising wave energy converter (WEC) designs, maximising their power performance and techno‐economic feasibility. Reliability has yet to be fully considered in these formulations, despite its impact on cost and performance. In this study, this gap is address...
