Abstract

Highlights • We propose two multi-resonant wave energy devices with compressible volumes. One is fixed to the seabed. The other is floating. • Linear mathematical models, assuming no losses, predict that devices with displaced volumes of about 3000 m 3 are capable of absorbing 80% of the theoretical limit for a wave period range of 5 seconds.
