Abstract
This chapter presents a dynamic analysis of a two-raft wave-powered desalination device based on the three-dimensional wave radiation-diffraction method. The device consists of two hinged cylindrical rafts of elliptical cross section and a Power Take-Off (PTO) system at the joint, which is used to represent a simplified desalination module of the device.
