1. Small-scale wave energy converter for wave tank facility
University essay from Uppsala universitet/ElektricitetsläraAbstract : A small-scale wave energy converter was designed and built for teaching and academic purposes to be used at The Division for Electricity, in the Ångström Laboratory at Uppsala University. The design of the power take-off (PTO) makes use of magnets passing through a copper coil for electricity generation. READ MORE

2. RF Compressor (SLED) Phase-Modulation to Reduce Peak Fields in the MAX IV Linear Accelerator
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknikAbstract : Modern particle accelerators need strong electric fields in order to produce high energy particles. Such high voltages are typically reached by injecting pulsed radio frequency power through several steps of amplification. At the end, pulse compression is used to further improve the energy gain at the cost of pulse-length. READ MORE

3. 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 mekanikAbstract : 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

4. Gravity and surface tension-driven waves
University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanikAbstract : 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

5. Model Design for Further Spray Deflector investigation
University essay from KTH/Marina systemAbstract : 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
