• Slingshot effect for ocean wave energy conversion 

  Arias Montenegro, Francisco Javier; Heras Jiménez, Salvador Augusto de las (ICOE (International Conference on Ocean Energy), 2018)
  Text en actes de congrés
  Accés restringit per política de l'editorial

  Slingshot effect (SE) and its significance with regard to ocean wave energy conversion is discussed. It is shown that owing to the huge inertia which can be transported by the ocean wave plus its periodicity, then a movable ...
• Resuspension and control of reservoir sediments by surface waves and point absorbers
