Oscillating type devices constitute a major class of offshore wave energy converters. In view of the characteristic of the wave energy in China that is low in energy density, a new heaving buoy wave energy device is designed. The paper introduces the basic components of the device, including buoys, support platform, submerged platform, anchor system and hydraulic power take-off, addresses the s...

Steep, short-crested waves, as well as a large variety of three-dimensional propagating wave patterns have been created in laboratory, utilizing a plunging half-cone. Monochromatic waves, over a range of frequencies and amplitudes through breaking and including soliton wave groups near resonance, have been observed and studied in a small wave flume. This monochromatic wavemaker creates complex ...

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves in the solar wind and magnetosphere are propagated in a medium whose velocity is comparable to or greater than the wave velocity and which varies in both space and time. In the approximation where the scales of the time and space variation are long compared with the period and wavelength, the ray-tracing equations can be generalized and then include an additional...
