The effects of geometrical buoy shape with nonlinear Froude-Krylov force on a heaving buoy point absorber

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2021
This study examined the effects of buoy shape and Nonlinear Froude-Krylov force (NFK) on a heaving-buoy-type Wave Energy Converter (WEC). Based on the Maclaurin expansion, the theoretical solutions of the NFK were derived for three different buoy shapes;

Shallow water effects on wave energy converters with hydraulic power take-off system

open access: yesThe International Journal of Ocean and Climate Systems, 2016
The effect of water depth on the power absorption by a single heaving point absorber wave energy converter, attached to a hydraulic power take-off system, is simulated and analysed. The wave energy flux for changing water depths is presented and the study is carried out at a location in the north-west Portuguese coast, favourable for wave power ...

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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

open access: yesOcean 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 ...
