Vertical Axis Pendulum Wave Energy Converters : Investigating Control Strategies and the Deployment of a Scaled Generic Prototype

Creator:

Boren, Blake C.

Abstract:

Vertical Axis Pendulum Wave Energy Converters (VAPWECs) are thought to be both effective and robust at converting ocean wave energy into usable electricity. Seeking to build upon and investigate such potential, this work examines the merits of actively controlling a generic VAPWEC's pendulum for the purpose of increasing the converter's...
