Relevant sector information and guidance to aid in the design and development of wave energy projects.
Open source, Excel based, Operations and Maintenance (O&M) simulation tool for wave developers produced as part of an IDCORE Engineering Doctorate.
View DetailsThe tool provides a structured method to support the early stages of design development, with attributes of potential Wave Energy Converter (WEC) generated and the scenarios ranked to illustrate which are likely to yield commercial success.
View DetailsA series of guidelines, guidance and learning records which were produced internally by Aquamarine Power to aide engineering design work for Oyster 800 and future WEC designs.

View DetailsWave Energy Scotland are involved in ongoing international collaborations on the development of metrics to be used across the ocean energy sector. A number of workshops have been held and the outputs are available here.
View DetailsThis IDCORE project has investigated the application of reinforcement learning and neural networks to the control of a point absorber. In particular, approaches with static sea states have been analysed. The controllers are proved to be adaptive to changes in wave conditions and system dynamics.
