  • A novel control design for a wave energy converter

    Creator:
    Schacher, Alphonse A.
    Abstract:
    Ocean wave energy is rapidly becoming a field of great interest in the world of renewable energy. Significant advancements in design and technology are being made to make wave energy a viable alternative for our growing energy demands. The two major hurdles for ocean wave energy to make a significant...

  • 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...

  • Development test suite for FPGA TekBot learning platform

    Creator:
    Lai, Gerald
    Abstract:
    As the Tekbots program expands into senior and graduate level classes at Oregon State University, so does the need arise for more complex learning platforms. These complex hardware platforms cannot be adequately tested in a manufacturing environment as we have done previously. Also, due to their complexity, these platforms require...
