50664-kim.png Among the questions explored:
  • Why the IEA-OES task on numerical modelling and validation is important for the wave energy sector?
  • How do you see the balance between modelling and physical testing? 
  • What makes validating models in real ocean conditions so challenging? Any lessons learned from doing that kind of work?
  • From recent workshops or collaborations, have there been any big takeaways or surprising results you think the sector really needs to hear about?
  • Looking ahead, where should we focus next? What would help take our modelling tools and practices to the next level, especially in terms of helping technologies get certified or scaled up?
