    Author : Aleksandar Nachev; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Renewable energy sources are probably the future of the mankind. The main points advocating wave energy in particular include its huge potential, low environmental impact and availability around the globe. READ MORE

  4. 13. A durable mooring system for a winch-based wave energy converter

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Mingming Wang; [2017]
    Keywords : wave energy converter; winch; fatigue calculations; Vågomvandlare; vinsch; utmattningsberäkningar;

    Abstract : This project has dealt with the developing a new technology for a renewable energy source, the wave energy, which is considered as one of the renewable resources with a potential to contribute to an energy production corresponding to about 10% of the world’s energy consumption nowadays. A point absorber concept that is using a Power Take-off (PTO) unit converts the sea surface wave motion into electricity thanks to a buoy at the sea surface which is moved by the waves. READ MORE

    Abstract : With increased attention on global warming, engineers have been looking into new and more environmental friendly ways to meet the world’s ever increasing energy demand. An exciting possibility is to harness the immense and untapped resource that lies in ocean waves. READ MORE

  6. 15. Modelling and Simulation of a Power Take-off in Connection with Multiple Wave Energy Converters

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för tillämpad signalbehandling

    Author : Ashkan Ghodrati; Ahmed Rashid; [2014]
    Keywords : Wave power; power take-off; wave energy converter; weight accumulator; power capture control; planetary gearbox; modeling and simulation ;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis is to develop a model that will integrate multiple buoys to a power take-off hub. The model will be derived using a time domain analysis and will consider the hydraulic coupling of the buoys and the power take-off. The derived model is reproduced in MATLAB in order to run simulations. READ MORE
