Towards reliable and survivable ocean wave energy converters

Creator:

Brown, Adam C.

Abstract:

Ocean wave energy is a new and developing field of renewable energy with great potential. The energy contained in one meter of an average wave off the coast of Newport Oregon could supply dozens of homes with electricity. However, ocean waves are usually quite irregular which leads to large bursts...

Modeling and experimental verification of electric and magnetic fields generated by undersea power transmission cables

Creator:

York, Charles E.

Abstract:

As interest grows in developing devices to harvest energy from ocean waves, tidal currents, and offshore wind, concerns over possible environmental effects from such devices also grow. One such concern is over the induced electric fields and the generated magnetic fields from generators and their associated submarine power cables in...
