Understand the interaction between ocean waves and oscillating
systems with this useful new edition. With a focus on linear
analysis of low-amplitude waves, you are provided with a thorough
understanding of wave interactions, presented to be easily
accessible to non-specialist readers. Topics covered include the
background mathematics of oscillations, gravity waves on water, the
dynamics of wave-body interactions, and the absorption of wave
energy by oscillating bodies and oscillating water columns.
Featuring new content throughout, including three new chapters on
oscillating-body wave energy converters, oscillating water columns
and other types of wave energy converters, and wave energy
converter arrays, this book is an excellent resource for students,
researchers, and engineers who are new to the subject of wave
energy conversion, as well as those with more experience.
