  • An approach to reduced-order modeling and feedback control for wave energy converters

    Creator:
    Shoori J., Hesam E.
    Abstract:
    Wave energy holds great promise to be part of the alternative energy portfolio that will provide independence from fossil fuels. As wave energy converter (WEC) technologies mature, designing effective control strategies to extract maximum energy, extend device life, coordinate WEC operation within an array, or mitigate negative impacts of a...

  • On the modeling and control of horizontal pendulum wave energy converters

    Creator:
    Boren, Blake C.
    Abstract:
    Presented is an investigation into the modeling, active control design, and simulation of a generic horizontal pendulum wave energy converter, known as a PWEC. A description is provided of the dominant attributes PWECs have, showcasing their promising potential as wave energy converters. Seeking to further promote this potential, an active...
