Comments on Control of Wave Energy Converters
IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, 2021 The main objective of this letter is to consolidate the knowledge about the dynamics and control of oscillating-body wave energy converters (WECs). A number of studies have shown that control systems strongly affect power absorption; however, there ...

Performance of arrays of direct-driven wave energy converters under optimal power take-off damping
AIP Advances, 2016 It is well known that the total power converted by a wave energy farm is influenced by the hydrodynamic interactions between wave energy converters, especially when they are close to each other. Therefore, to improve the performance of a wave energy farm,
