  1. 1. Mechanical design guidelines and criteria for mooring components in wave energy devices : Finding the optimum chain and shackle parameters

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad mekanik

    Author : Arvin Modiri; [2022]
    Keywords : Chain; shackle; finite element method; wave energy converter; WEC; Kedja; kätting; schackel; finita element metoden; vågkraftverk;

    Abstract : Obtaining the perfect renewable energy source is one of the most important questions of our lifetime. One renewable energy source that could be of interest in this question because of the characteristics of the power that could be extracted from it is wave energy. READ MORE

  3. 2. Gravity and surface tension-driven waves

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Albin Hedblom; [2022]
    Keywords : Gravity surface waves; capillary-gravity surface waves; dispersion; experiment;

    Abstract : In this thesis, gravity and surface tension-driven water waves are investigated by designing an experimental setup to track wave patterns using a 300 fps high speed camera. This is done to reproduce the theoretical diagram of the dispersion relation for surface waves in different teaching contexts. Surface waves are dispersive, i.e. READ MORE

  4. 3. Model Design for Further Spray Deflector investigation

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Xinguo Wang; [2021]
    Keywords : High-Speed Craft; Model Design; Spray Deflector; Höghastighetshantverk; modelldesign; spraydeflektor;

    Abstract : Planing hull is one solution to break the speed barrier of conventional hull, but as the boat reaches a high speed, massive whisker spray will be developed and attached to the hull, which causes a notable resistance increase. A Swedish company Peterstep invented an innovative spray deflector that can deflect the spray backwards and harvest kinetic energy from the spray. READ MORE

  5. 4. Designing of One Directional Wave Tank

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Shivansh Ringe; [2020]
    Keywords : Wave tank; Ansys Fluent; SolidWorks; CFD; Design;

    Abstract : Uppsala University wants to make a wave tank which can be used for experiment and education purpose. The project's aim is to get design parameters required to make a wave tank, design the wave tank, to do analysis on wave parameters taken from results and analysis of material which can be used to construct it.

  6. 5. Offshore Floating Platforms : Analysis of a solution for motion mitigation

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Alberto Rodriguez Marijuan; [2017]
    Keywords : Offshore Wind; floating platform; wave tank test; hydrodynamic pressure; structural; hydrodynamic load; heave plate.;

    Abstract : Recent events regarding energy policies throughout the globe and advances in technology are making offshore wind farms become a reality. Most offshore wind farms are still, however, built close to land masses, and need to be rigidly attached to the seabed in one way or another. READ MORE
