Engineering, Structures and Moorings Describe and explain the calculation, analysis and design necessary in preparation

[answerhappygod]

Engineering, Structures and Moorings Describe and explain thecalculation, analysis and design necessary in preparation to deploya prototype wave energy conversion (WEC) device in water ofapproximately 30 metres depth at a site strongly affected bycurrents and wind. (You may choose a particular device and mooringdesign as illustration, but you must give some justification forchoices. Answers should be less than 1000 words excludingillustrations and references. Copied and pasted illustrations maybe used, but must be clearly identified and referenced).
