LINEAR GENERATOR PROTOTYPE WITH VERTICAL CONFIGURATION OF SEA WAVE POWER PLANT
There are three types of potential energy sources in the sea: ocean wave energy, tidal energy, and ocean heat energy. Ocean wave energy is a source of considerable energy. Sea waves are an up and down movement of seawater where the energy of sea waves is

New Wave Energy Converter Design Inspired by the Nenuphar Plant
This paper presents the Nenuphar concept, an innovative wave energy converter designed to use the kinetic and the potential energy of sea waves, based on the motions of seven modules. First, the main characteristics of the Nenuphar and its work principle

Heaving buoys, point absorbers and arrays [PDF]
Abstract Absorption of wave energy may be considered as a phenomenon of interference between incident and radiated waves generated by an oscillating object; a wave-energy converter (WEC) that displaces water. If a WEC is very small in comparison with one wavelength, it is classified as a point absorber (PA); otherwise, as a ‘quasi ...

Control of a Point Absorber Using Reinforcement Learning [PDF]
This work presents the application of reinforcement learning for the optimal resistive control of a point absorber. The model-free Q-learning algorithm is selected in order to maximise energy absorption in each sea state. Step changes are made to the controller damping, observing the associated penalty, for excessive motions, or reward, i.e.

Dynamics of Heaving Buoy Wave Energy Converters with a Stiffness Reactive Controller
Heaving buoy wave energy converters (WEC) are floating oscillators, commonly modeled as single-degree-of-freedom vibrating systems. As the wave frequencies change according to the sea state, these devices must be controlled to maximize energy absorption.
