  1. 6. Device Resonance Response in a Wave Energy Converter : Investigation of Surge Resonance in a Heaving Point Absorber

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

    Author : Lykke Östbom; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Wave power possesses vast potential to become a considerable energy contributor. The main challenge for wave power to become competitive on the energy market is to minimize the delivered energy cost simultaneously as designing a wave energy converter (WEC) strong enough to survive extreme sea conditions.
