Experiments on the Accuracy of a 3D Motion Capture System: A Project Report submitted to Oregon State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science

Creator:

Brown, Nicholas C.

Abstract:

The motion of floating objects are of importance to engineers and scientists in a range of applications. For example, in the design of ships and wave energy convertors and the study of debris mobilized by tsunamis. Measuring the movement of floating objects in the laboratory can be challenging. Six degrees...

Design Optimization of a Structurally Flexible Wave Energy Converter with a Direct Search Algorithm

Creator:

Berrier, Austin S.

Abstract:

Several wave energy converter designs have been recently proposed that are made of flexible materials. Flexible devices are able to generate electricity by being stretched, and are intended to simplify deployment and maintenance concerns over existing wave energy devices. Due to the relative infancy of flexible wave energy converters, however,...
