When estimating significant wave height and wave power, it is regularly assumed 4 for the spectral estimate factor. It means considering a narrowband wave spectrum. That approach is accurate enough when the spectral broadness ...

Objective: To establish normal ranges of F-wave measures in China as compared to published data in Brazil and Japan.Method: We studied F waves in 127 healthy Chinese subjects, aged 21-78 years old, stimulating the median, ...

Technologies for converting wave energy to electricity are not mature yet. It is necessary to understand the characteristics and potential of the wave climate of the local area where wave energy converters will be installed. ...

The Peru Basin is an unexplored source of clean energy. Projects to install wave farms in this region depend on assessing the energy power that this domain can offer. The state-of-the-art indicates that the technology for ...

Alternative wave transfer methodologies from deep to shallow water that aim at reducing the computational time in cases where the full propagation of a large number of wave climates is often prohibitive are defined and ...

In this paper, a possible increase in wind wave heights in the south-eastern south American continental shelf between 32°S and 40°S is investigated. Both time series of in situ (1996–2006) and topex (1993–2001) annual mean ...

In this work, a study of the wave climate in a region of the Peruvian Sea Basin is carried out using wave spectral data. Time series of 10-year buoy ocean data are processed. The analysis of the wave climate presented that ...

Assessing the wave energy resource in zones without spectral data leads to assumptions based on theory to estimate wave parameters such as the energy period. The energy period has been regularly approximated using a ...

Calculation of accurate ocean wave energy values is crucial for evaluating the feasibility of the installation of wave energy converters. Wave power can be calculated using a spectral parametric formulation. This parametric ...
