Modeling and Analysis of Inertial-Hydraulic Power take-off Device

Journal of Physics: Conference Series
Abstract This paper introduces a novel power output device that combines inertia and hydraulics, which captures vibrations caused by external forces acting on the carrier in space using the sensitive gyroscope of the inertia system. The captured random mechanical energy is then converted into hydraulic energy, rectified and regulated by ...

Strategies for active tuning of Wave Energy Converter hydraulic power take-off mechanisms [PDF]

Renewable Energy, 2016
This paper presents a study of practically implementable active tuning methods for a Wave Energy Converter (WEC) power take-off (PTO). It is distinguished from other simulation studies by the level of detail and realism in the inputs and the PTO model.

Microstructural Evolution and Vacancy Defect Formation in Mn–Mo–Ni RPV Steel Under Low Cycle Fatigue: Insights From EBSD and PALS

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Low‐cycle fatigue damage in Mn–Mo–Ni reactor pressure vessel steel is examined using a combined electron backscatter diffraction and positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy approach. The study correlates texture evolution, dislocation substructure development, and vacancy‐type defect formation across uniform, necked, and fracture regions, providing

Powder Optimization Strategies for Binder Jetting Printing of BaTiO3 and Ba0,6Sr0,4TiO3 Ceramics

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Powder optimization is investigated to enable binder jetting of BaTiO3 and Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 ferroelectric ceramics. The antagonistic relationship between flowability and binder compatibility is addressed through binder impregnation of granulated powders and fumed silica addition to fine powders.

Optimizing the hydraulic power take-off system in a wave energy converter

Ocean Engineering
This study aims to determine the optimal pressure for the accumulator tank in a wave energy converter (WEC) with hydraulic power take-off (PTO) to maximize energy generation. A simulation-based approach was employed to analyze the buoy's performance with wave data generated from the Wafo toolbox using the generalized Pierson–Moskowitz (GPM) spectrum ...

Wave Energy Converters and Hydraulic Power Take-off: analysis of a possible control strategy

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2023
Abstract Wave energy conversion is one of the most promising but untapped worldwide technologies. In fact, wave energy is clean and renewable as the solar and wind ones, but also less mature and utilized. Moreover, several Wave Energy Converters (WECs) patents have been developed in the last decades, as evidence of the great potential ...

Multimodal Soft Surgical Robots Enabled by Eco‐Degradable, Sterilizable Polymers and Transient Electronics

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A compostable PGS soft surgical robot with interchangeable modules integrates transient Mo tactile and Si thermal sensors for dual feedback. The device preserves its function after clinical‐grade sterilization, demonstrates stable actuation and cardiac tissue grasping with real‐time in vivo pulsatile monitoring, and biodegrades post‐use with soil‐safe,
