A Flexible Chain Proposal for Winch-Based Point Absorbers
Journal of Mechanical Design, 2018 Ocean wave power is a promising renewable energy source. It has, however, been difficult to find a cost-effective solution to convert wave energy into electricity. The harsh marine environment and the fact that wave power is delivered with large forces at low speed make design of durable mechanical structures and efficient energy conversion challenging.
