Recently, Peng, Hu and Yang presented a lumped parameter model to quantify the hysteresis in Oscillating Water Column systems. We noticed that the model they presented is remarkably similar to the one we introduced in some of our previously published works. The similarity extends not only to the assumptions, derivation and methodology used to obtain an analytical solution, but even to the almost totality of the symbols chosen for the many model variables. None of the papers where we introduced the model and its solution were referenced by Peng and his coauthors, who therefore claimed for themselves the credit due to the original authors of the model. Peng and his coauthors have then applied the lumped parameter model to a test case different from the one that we had validated it on. This gives further confirmation of the validity of the model, which we feel the responsibility to reestablish the scientific property of.

Abstract
Recently, Peng, Hu and Yang presented a lumped parameter model to quantify the hysteresis in Oscillating Water Column systems. We noticed that the model they presented is remarkably similar to the one we introduced in some of our previously published works. The similarity extends not only to the assumptions, derivation and methodology used to obtain an analytical solution, but even to the almost totality of the symbols chosen for the many model variables. None of the papers where we introduced the model and its solution were referenced by Peng and his coauthors, who therefore claimed for themselves the credit due to the original authors of the model. Peng and his coauthors have then applied the lumped parameter model to a test case different from the one that we had validated it on. This gives further confirmation of the validity of the model, which we feel the responsibility to reestablish the scientific property of.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
