Extreme motion and response statistics for survival of the three-float wave energy converter M4 in intermediate water depth

Extreme motion and response statistics for survival of the three-float wave energy converter M4 in intermediate water depth

This paper presents both linear and nonlinear analysis of extreme responses for a multibody wave energy converter (WEC) in severe sea-states. The WEC known as M4 consists of three cylindrical floats with diameters and draft which increase from bow to stern with the larger mid and stern floats having...
