Evaluation of Geometrical Influence on the Hydrodynamic Characteristics and Power Absorption of Vertical Axisymmetric Wave Energy Converters in Irregular Waves

To obtain the mechanical energy of waves from arbitrary directions, the vibration absorbers of wave energy converters (WEC) are usually vertically axisymmetric.In such case, the wave-body interaction hydrodynamics is an essential research topic to obtain high-efficiency wave energy.In this paper, a semi-analytical method of decomposing the complex
