• Wave radiation from a truncated cylinder of arbitrary cross section 

  Yu, Huifeng; Zheng, Siming; Zhang, Yongliang; Iglesias, Gregorio (Elsevier B.V., 2019-01-18)

  In this paper, a semi-analytical model for solving wave radiation from a truncated cylinder of arbitrary cross section is presented based on linear potential flow theory. The water domain is divided into the interior domain ...
• The economic cost of unreliable grid power in Nigeria 

  Olowosejeje, Samuel; Leahy, Paul; Morrison, Alan (Taylor & Francis Group, 2019-01-20)

  The ever-increasing demand for electrical power in Nigeria, coupled with a limited supply, have restricted the nation's socioeconomic development. The country’s policymakers, aware of this, have formulated and enacted ...
• The influence of flexible towers on the dynamics of offshore wind turbine gravity base structures 

  O'Leary, Kieran; Pakrashi, Vikram; Kelliher, Denis (Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd., 2018-09-25)

  With offshore wind turbines increasing in size, there is increasing interest in non-traditional support structures. New concepts include lightweight and flexible fiberglass composite towers that have potential benefits ...
• Data analytics for fault prediction and diagnosis in wind turbines 

  Leahy, Kevin (University College Cork, 2018)

  As feed-in tariffs for wind energy are gradually being replaced by market driven auction-based systems, the need for cost savings at every stage of a wind energy project is more apparent than ever. A proven and effective ...
• Wave farm planning through high-resolution resource and performance characterization 

  Carbello, R.; Arean, N.; Alvarez, M.; Lopez, I.; Castro, A.; Lopez, M.; Iglesias, Gregorio (Elsevier, 2018-12-23)

  Wave farm planning in a coastal region should lead to the selection of: i) the type of technology of wave energy converter (WEC) providing the highest performance at specific sites and ii) the sites for wave farm operation ...
