An isomorphic Froude scaling approach to bulbous-bottomed buoys in wave energy converters for smart floating cities

Testing full-scale point absorber buoys with enhanced power absorption is challenging and crucial to improving their viability for applications in smart floating cities and marine infrastructure. Bulbous-bottomed (BB) buoys are efficient in hydrodynamics and power absorption for point absorber wave...
