Tay provides a comprehensive description of the state of the art for recent conceptual designs on the integration of wave energy convertor (WEC) systems with floating structures in tropical seas, discusses the unique environmental challenges, and provides a guide for readers to develop WECs that are optimized for both wave patterns and the structures to which they are attached.

Through this book, readers will gain a deep understanding of the unique environmental characteristics of tropical climates, discover how WECs can be integrated into various floating structures, and learn how WECs can be adapted and optimized for use in tropical climates. This book also focuses on the hydroelasticity of large floating structures and how the structural deformation under wave action affects the energy generation of the WEC. Tay provides the theoretical formulation and numerical framework for the modelling of WEC systems when integrated with large floating structures. Different wave models and mathematical optimization schemes are presented to enable readers to determine the best design and application parameters depending on requirements. Through the book, Tay includes case studies to illustrate how power generation of the integrated WEC arrays can be enhanced. This includes power enhancement via sloshing resonance, wave runup, structural deformation, and various optimization schemes. These case studies offer reader practical guidance on applying the information in this book to real-world scenarios.

The combination of presented case studies, discussion of the challenges of tropical seas, and design optimization parameters make this book invaluable to researchers and industry players working on the concepts of power enhancement and integrated WECs on floating structures.

Zhi Yung Tay is an Associate Professor at Singapore Institute of Technology. Previously, he was a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Institute for Energy Systems, University of Edinburgh and a Research Fellow at National University of Singapore (NUS). Dr Tay also held a Senior Research Engineer position at Keppel Offshore and Marine Technology Centre. He received his Ph.D. from NUS in 2009.
