• Energy conversion: a comparison of fix- and self-referenced wave energy converters 

  Sheng, Wanan; Lewis, Tony (MDPI, 2016-12-15)

  The paper presents an investigation of fix-referenced and self-referenced wave energy converters and a comparison of their corresponding wave energy conversion capacities from real seas. For conducting the comparisons, two ...
• Wave energy conversion of oscillating water column devices including air compressibility 

  Sheng, Wanan; Lewis, Anthony (AIP Publishing, 2016-09-23)

  This paper presents an investigation on air compressibility in the air chamber and its effects on the power conversion of oscillating water column (OWC) devices. As it is well known that for practical OWC plants, their air ...
• Survey on demand side sensitivity to power quality in Ireland 

  Rea, Judith A.; Herring, Jack; Sopoćko, Michał; Dempsey, Paul; Armstrong, Sara (Elsevier, 2016-04-30)

  Power systems require a reliable supply and good power quality. The impact of power supply interruptions is well acknowledged and well quantified. However, a system may perform reliably without any interruptions but may ...
• Operational expenditure costs for wave energy projects and impacts on financial returns 

  O'Connor, Michael; Lewis, Anthony; Dalton, Gordon (Elsevier, 2012-10-04)

  This paper examines 'availability' and the input metrics of operational expenditure (OPEX) for wave energy projects and reports on a case study which assesses the impact of these inputs on project profit returns. Case study ...
• Assessment of primary energy conversions of oscillating water columns. I. Hydrodynamic analysis 

  Sheng, Wanan; Alcorn, Raymond; Lewis, Anthony (American Institute of Physics, 2014-09-29)

  This is an investigation on the development of a numerical assessment method for the hydrodynamic performance of an oscillating water column (OWC) wave energy converter. In the research work, a systematic study has been ...
