Absorbed power density approach for optimal design of heaving point absorber wave energy converter: A case study of Durban sea characteristics

This work proposes an approach for the optimal sizing of a cylindrical heaving wave energy converter (WEC).The approach is based on maximising the absorbed power density (APD) of the buoy, with the diameter being the decision variable.Furthermore, two types of buoy shapes were compared to get the best option.The two buoy shapes are the cone cylinde
