This site give details of a joint experimental and numerical project to model a new type of wave energy device called the Oscillating Wave Surge Converter (OWSC).
The experimental team is based in the School of Civil Engineering at Queen's University Belfast and the numerical team is based in the Centre for Mathematical Modelling and Flow Analysis at Manchester Metropolitan University.

The project was funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council
