“Taking the device from an R&D project to widespread commercialization will require driving the cost down. That requires understanding the physics of extreme waves. “Designing wave energy isn’t just about understanding the power,” says Dr. Rafiee. “It’s understanding the extreme responses and loads in extreme wave conditions.”

Dr. Wolgamot and colleagues Jana Orszaghova and Scott Draper are providing more understanding of those extreme waves — and thereby helping Carnegie validate the next generation of its device. The team started by establishing a “design wave” – a short sequence of waves that captured the most extreme behavior the device will experience. Then comes the nonlinear modeling and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis and the supercomputing power of Magnus.“
