Performance of a plate‐wave energy converter integrated in a floating breakwater
IET Renewable Power Generation, Volume 15, Issue 14, Page 3206-3219, 26 October 2021., 2021 Abstract A plate‐wave energy converter (pWEC) moored in front of a floating stationary breakwater is considered. The pWEC is composed of a submerged flexible plate with piezoelectric layers bonded to both faces of it. Hence the elastic motion of the plate excited by water waves can be transformed into useful electricity due to the piezoelectric effect.
