Development of adaptive damping power take-off control for a three-body wave energy converter with numerical modeling and validation

Creator:

Zhang, Zhe

Abstract:

The performance of the power take-off (PTO) system for a wave energy converter (WEC) depends largely on its control algorithm. This paper presents an adaptive damping control algorithm that improves power capture across a range of sea states. Validation for the numerical model was performed using data from two sources;...
