Abstract	Researchers at Oregon State University, focusing on the development of ocean wave energy converters, have designed and installed a unique linear test bed to aid in the characterization of these converters. Under the original control scheme, the linear test bed follows a position profile and is limited in its ability to replicate the forces a wave energy converter would experience in the ocean. To overcome these limitations, a force control algorithm has been developed to better simulate the hydrodynamic effects between an ocean wave and a wave energy converter device. This thesis presents the design and implementation of the force control algorithm on the linear test bed.
