Simultaneous layout and device parameter optimisation of a wave energy park in an irregular sea
Ben Wilks, Michael H. Meylan, Fabien Montiel +4
The design of optimal wave energy parks, namely, arrays of devices known as wave energy converters (WECs) that extract energy from water waves, is an important consideration for th…

Water wave interactions with surface-piercing vertical barriers in a rectangular tank: Connections with Bloch waves and quasimodes
Ben Wilks, Fabien Montiel, Luke G. Bennetts +1
Eigenmodes are studied for a fluid-filled rectangular tank containing one or more vertical barriers, and on which either Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions are prescribed on…

Generalised eigenfunction expansion and singularity expansion methods for canonical time-domain wave scattering problems
Ben Wilks, Michael H. Meylan, Fabien Montiel +1
The generalised eigenfunction expansion method (GEM) and the singularity expansion method (SEM) are applied to solve the canonical problem of wave scattering on an infinite stretch…
