Increasing uses of ocean environment have brought active research activities continuously. The newly developed technology of ocean energy even pushed the related needs forward one more step. This Special Issue focuses on Analysis of Interactions between wave structures and ocean waves. Although ocean structures may cover various practical and/or conceptual types, we hope in the years to come, the state-of-the-art applications in wave and structure interactions and/or progress review and future developments could be included. There are fifteen papers published in the Special issue. A brief description includes: Lee et al. [1] presented a concept of a water column type wave power converter. Li et al. [2] considered submerged breakwaters. Lin et al. [3] studied an ocean current turbine system. Thiagarajan and Moreno [4] investigated oscillating heave plates in wind turbines. Chiang et al. [5] proposed an actuator disk model. Tseng et al. [6] investigated Bragg reflections of periodic surface-piercing submerged breakwaters. Lee et al. [7] analyzed caisson structures with a wave power conversion system installed. Yeh et al. [8] reported motion reduction in offshore wind turbines. Wu and Hsiao [9] considered submerged slotted barriers. Tang et al. [10] studied floating platforms with fishnets. Chen et al. [11] calculated mooring drags of underwater floating structures with moorings. Jeong et al. [12] estimated the motion performance of light buoys using ecofriendly and lightweight materials. Zhang et al. [13] considered vibrations of deep-sea risers. On the other hand, Shugan et al. [14] studied the effects of plastic coating on sea surfaces.Technology: general issuesbicsscactuator diskadded massaerodynamic loadanalytic solutionBEMBragg reflectionbreakwater designbuoyance platformcaisson breakwater applicationcapacity factorcomputational fluid dynamicsdamping coefficientdeep-sea risereigenfunction matching methodelastic plateexperimentextreme windfishnet mesh sizefloating offshore wind turbinefloating platformforced oscillation in wavesfree decay testsfree surface effectfrequency-domaingustheave platehydrodynamic coefficientsinteractionKeulegan Carpenter numberlight buoymooring forcesmooring foundationmotion performance in wavesmotion reduction controln/anonlinear wavesnumerical simulationoblique waveocean current power systemoffshore wind poweroffshore wind turbineoscillating water columnparticle image velocimetryperiodic bottomPIVpotential-based simulationspower predictionRANS modelrectangular breakwaterrenewable energyslotted barriersolitary wavestabilitystep approximationstructural safetysubmerged breakwatersubmerged obstaclesurface typesurface wavessurface-piercing structuretemplate structure systemtime-domainTLDtop tensiontyphoonunderwater floating structureundulating breakwaterviscous damping coefficientsvortex energyvortex-induced vibrationwater waveswave breakerwave energywave power converting systemwind farmTechnology: general issuesLee Jaw-Fangedt1290175Yang Ray-YengedtLee Jaw-FangothYang Ray-YengothBOOK9910557337503321Waves and Ocean Structures3021388UNINA
