Abstract : The hydrodynamics of a hybrid wave energy converter device is investigated. For the sake of mathematical modeling, the associated boundary value problem is converted into a system of Fredholm integral equations and solved using the boundary element method. To incorporate the higher order plate boundary condition, central difference scheme is used. Primary emphasis is given to analyze the power extraction of the hybrid wave energy converter device for various incident wave parameters associated with the hybrid wave energy converter device.
