Optimization of Wave Energy Convertors by Genetic Algorithm, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Abbaspour Tehrani Fard, Majid (Supervisor)
Abstract
Given the great potential of energy resources, the utilization of wave energy for electricity production can make a significant contribution to the renewable energy portfolio of coastal nations. There are, however, many challenges that must be overcome in order for wave energy to be commercially viable. One of the key objectives of the wave energy industry today is to produce commercially viable wave farms by placing multiple wave energy converters (WECs) together in an array. The full problem of calculating the power absorbtion of an array of WECs requires not only the complete knowledge of the hydrodynamics of each individual body, but also the scattering and radiation effects between all...
