  • A linear test bed for characterizing the performance of ocean wave energy converters

    Creator:
    Hogan, Peter M.
    Abstract:
    Determining the performance characteristics of various ocean wave energy converters (OWEC) has proven to be difficult due to problems replicating a baseline motion profile in the ocean or wave tank to compare these devices. The linear test bed seeks to mechanically simulate the relative linear motion between the active components...
