Maximum Power Point Tracking Control via Time‐Varying Vector Equivalent Damping Modulation for Stroke‐Constrained Direct‐Drive Wave Energy Converters

IET Electric Power Applications, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This paper proposes a stroke‐constrained MPPT strategy for direct‐drive wave energy converters based on time‐varying modulation of the generator equivalent damping. By combining constrained baseline optimisation, short‐term forward prediction and a smooth damping envelope, the proposed method keeps the device within stroke limits while achieving higher

Fault‐Tolerant Control of a Six‐Phase Permanent Magnet Transverse Flux Linear Wave Generator Considering End Effect

IET Electric Power Applications, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This paper proposes a fault‐tolerant control strategy for a six‐phase permanent magnet transverse flux linear wave generator used in direct‐drive wave energy converters. The end effect of the flat linear generator is considered, and different single‐phase open‐circuit fault cases are analysed according to whether the fault occurs in an end phase or a ...
