My current research interest is in the field of marine renewable energy, coastal and ocean structures. More specifically, I am interested in the characterization and development of novel concepts to harness wave and offshore wind energy and how to approach combined solutions for both technologies. The development of new wave energy converters or hybrid wind-wave combined solutions by means of physical and numerical modelling is a fundamental part of my daily research. The analysis of how co-located wind-wave solutions (a particular type of combined wave-wind systems) can take advantage of the multiple synergies between both technologies to increase their sustainability and reduce costs is one of my key topics. The development of novel offshore wind substructure systems (both fix and floating) able to go deeper offshore and to combine them with other maritime activities is key for the offshore wind sector to move forward, being aware of this relevance this constitutes one of my particular research interests.
