Journal ArticleDOI
Wave-power absorption by systems of oscillating surface pressure distributions
TL;DR: In this article, the efficiency of energy absorption of a system of uniform oscillatory surface pressure distributions was derived based on linear water-wave theory and the results showed the close analogies which exist with theories for absorbing oscillatory rigid bodies and a number of new reciprocal relations for pressure distributions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Existence theorems for trapped modes
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that there exists at least one mode of oscillation, antisymmetric about the centreline, that corresponds to a local oscillation at a particular frequency, in the absence of excitation, which decays with distance down the waveguide away from the obstruction.
Journal ArticleDOI
The interaction of waves with arrays of vertical circular cylinders
Christopher Linton,D. V. Evans +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the scattering of water waves by an array of N bottom-mounted vertical circular cylinders is solved exactly (under the assumption of linear water wave theory) using the method proposed by Spring & Monkmeyer in 1974.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrodynamic characteristics of an oscillating water column device
D. V. Evans,Richard Porter +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a wave energy device consisting of a thin vertical surface-piercing barrier next to a vertical wall in finite depth water is considered, and power is extracted due to a normally incident wave forcing the free surface of the fluid between the barrier and the wall to oscillate.
