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,

Robust control of wave energy converters [PDF]
2014 IEEE Conference on Control Applications (CCA), 2014 Energy-maximising controllers for wave energy devices are normally based on linear hydrodynamic device models. Such models ignore nonlinear effects which typically manifest themselves for large device motion (typical in this application) and may also include other modelling errors. In this paper, we present a methodology for reducing the sensitivity to

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 remains a need for a concise and integrated explanation of the theoretical and practical implications ...

On the capture width of wave energy converters [PDF]
Applied Ocean Research, 2009 This paper extends the theory on capture width, a commonly used performance indicator for a wave energy converter (WEC). The capture width of a linear WEC is shown to depend on two properties: the spectral power fraction (a property introduced in this paper), which depends entirely on the sea state, and the monochromatic capture width, which is ...

Master-slave wave farm systems based on energy filter with smoothed power output
Global Energy Interconnection, 2018 Wave energy is an important renewable energy source. Previous studies of wave energy conversion (WEC) have focused on the maximum power take-off (PTO) techniques of a single machine. However, there is a lack of research on the energy and power quality of
