Quasi-Monte Carlo and Picard Iteration Algorithms for the Nonlinear Hydrodynamics, Dynamics and Controls of Wave Energy Converters

Ocean waves are an increasingly attractive target for renewable energy technologies, spurring the development of tools to optimize the capture of this available energy. While there has been an abundance of wave energy converter (WEC) concepts developed over the last 50 years, few have been commercia...
