Facilitating Large-Amplitude Motions of Wave Energy Converters in OpenFOAM by a modified Mesh Morphing Approach
High-fidelity simulations using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for wave-body interaction are becoming increasingly common and important for wave energy converter (WEC) design. The open source finite volume toolbox OpenFOAM is one of the most frequently used platforms for wave energy. There are...
