The article on marine tidals and waves energy is very interesting to me as I live in Costa Rica Central America, and I am an old mechanical engineer. Mycountry has a large kms of coast per square kilometer ratio, a large hydroelectric MW generated per square km, and eolic and geothermal facilities, the country having a 98 % electrification in its territory. I have been working out a proyect for using marine waves energy for electric generation, but didn´t know about your excelent works, as I can see from the article. I think my engineering idea for using this kind of energy is different from yours, because I use the principle of resonance in enclosed marine waves to obtain large transmited mechanical forces to be use for electric generation.

I would like to communicate with somebody on the field up there.
