Statistical and computational tradeoff in genetic algorithm-based estimation
When a genetic algorithm (GA) is employed in a statistical problem, the result is affected by both variability due to sampling and the
evolutionary algorithms
A new bi-level optimisation framework for optimising a multi-modewave energy converter design. A case study for the marettimo island, mediterranean sea
To advance commercialisation of ocean wave energy and for the technology to become competitive with other sources of renewable energy, the cost of wave energy harvesting should be significantly reduced. The Mediterranean Sea is a region with a relatively low wave energy potential, but due to the absence of extreme waves, can be considered at the initial stage of the prototype development as a proof of concept. In this study, we focus on the optimisation of a multi-mode wave energy converter inspired by the CETO system to be tested in the west of Sicily, Italy.
