On the impact of long-term wave trends on the geometry optimisation of oscillating water column wave energy converters
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020)
Wave trends have been shown to be relevant to energy generation in various areas of the world. Accordingly, this article describes the impact of wave trends on the design of oscillating water column wave energy converters. ...
Systematic complexity reduction of wave-to-wire models for wave energy system design
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020)
Wave-to-wire models are valuable tools for a variety of applications in the development of successful wave energy converters. However, computational requirements of these wave-to-wire models are often prohibitive for certain ...
Reactive control of wave energy devices – the modelling paradox
(Elsevier Ltd., 2021)
The implementation of energy maximising control systems (EMCSs) in wave energy converter (WEC) devices is an important step towards commercially viable operation of WECs. During the design stage of such EMCSs, linear ...

En el presente documento técnico, se realiza un análisis desde un punto de vista ingenieril de los molinos de viento patentados por Jerónimo de Ayanz y Beaumont el siglo XVII. El análisis que se presenta podría denominarse ...
A proper orthogonal decomposition analysis upon aerodynamic structures under clean and rough conditions
(AIP Publishing, 2023)
A transitional flow regime is known to induce complex flow structures upon aerodynamic geometries such as airfoils, and the dynamics of laminar separation bubbles (LSBs) pose a relevant research field. In addition to being ...
Assessing heavy maintenance alternatives for floating offshore wind farms: Towing vs. onsite replacement strategies
(Elsevier, 2025)
This paper presents the first comparative study evaluating towing and onsite replacement strategies for heavy maintenance of floating offshore wind (FOW) turbines. The towing maintenance strategy is characterised by a ...

Uncertainty Assessment Framework for IGBT Lifetime Models. A Case Study of Solder-Free Modules
(PHM Society, 2024)
Insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) are ubiquitous semiconductor devices used in diverse electronic power applications. The reliability and lifetime assessment of IGBTs is intricate and influenced by different ageing ...
Benchmarking of spectral methods for fatigue assessment of mooring systems and dynamic cables in offshore renewable energy technologies
(Elsevier, 2024)
Fatigue life estimation methods based on time-domain and rainflow counting techniques are widely recognised and accepted for their reliability. However, applying them in scenarios involving random loads with multiple ...
