TL;DR: In this article, the mobility functions of elastic cylindrical in vacuo shells have been numerically studied and applied to estimate both the input power and the power flow in coupled finite cylinrical shell systems.
Abstract: The mobility functions of semi-infinite and finite cylindrical shells are useful in calculating the structural wave power flows in coupled pipeline systems. However, their expressions and characteristics are not available in the existing literature. In this paper, the mobility functions of elastic cylindrical in vacuo shells have been numerically studied and applied to estimate both the input power and the power flow in coupled finite cylindrical shell systems.

TL;DR: In this paper, a computer software system was established, which can manage,calculate and analyze the data from the ocean wave observing recordsUsing this system, wave energy resource of Shengshan sea area,Zhejiang Province was evaluated in detail.
Abstract: A computer software system was established,which can manage,calculate and analyze the data from the ocean wave observing recordsUsing this system,wave energy resource of Shengshan sea area,Zhejiang Province was evaluated in detailWave power density typically ranges from 05 to 88 kW/m,the frequency of 2 kW/m is about 60%,and as a result wave power still makes a substantial contribution to these locations energy supplyThe analysis of the wave direction frequency distribution of wave power density,has the instruction significance regarding the design of the wave power generation deviceDuring the summer,the southerly direction frequency distribution of wave power density is above 55% ;However during the autumn and winter,the northern direction frequency distribution is above 60%Wave period in the sea area focuses on the distribution of 4~5 s,wave height focuses on 12~15 mThose terms are significant properties for the design of wave power generation device and the effective use of wave energy
