Evaluation of the performance of a taut-moored dual-body direct-drive waveenergy converter through numerical modeling and physical testing

Creator:

Elwood, David E.

Abstract:

With energy prices rising and increasing concern about the influence of fossil fuels on climate change, wave energy systems are on the verge of commercial implementation. These first generation wave energy converters utilize either pneumatics or hydraulics to convert the mechanical energy of waves into electricity. For the last several...
