摘要

The increasing demand for sustainable coastal protection and renewable energy solutions has driven significant interest in developing multi-functional offshore structures. This review examines the motion responses of offshore structures, with a particular focus on hydrodynamic factors influencing the design and efficiency of floating structures and wave energy converters. By integrating these dual-purpose systems, coastal regions can benefit from enhanced shoreline protection and renewable energy generation. This comprehensive review critically examines the motion responses of offshore floating breakwaters and wave energy converters, focusing on key variables such as wave height, draft depth, and wave number. The interactions between these parameters and various factors, including wave regimes, bottom topography, and hydrodynamic conditions, are thoroughly analyzed. A study of theoretical, computational, and experimental modeling methods for offshore floating breakwaters and wave energy converters is then presented. The findings aim to guide future research and engineering practices towards more efficient and resilient offshore infrastructure, contributing to the sustainability and economic viability of coastal management strategies.
