WEC STUDIES ON ENERGY FUTURE

Journal of Energy - Energija, 2022
The article gives a survey of studies made over the period 2005 to 2007 in coordination with and under the sponsorship of WEC. The studies deal with the energy sector with a long-term horizon up to 2050. Some studies are global in character, others are intended for the European region.

Experimental Assessment of the IFPEN Solution to the WEC Control Competition

Volume 9: Ocean Renewable Energy, 2020
This paper describes the experimental assessment of the solution developed by IFP Energies nouvelles (IFPEN) for the WEC Control Competition (WECCCOMP), a benchmark devised to compare energy-maximizing controllers for wave energy converters (WECs). For

Full-Scale WECs

2007
In this chapter, some of the concepts that have reached the full-scale stage are de-scribed in detail. Other examples could be given, but the analysis was limited to four main technologies: OWC (Oscillating Water Column), AWS (Archimedes Wave Swing), Pelamis and Wave Dragon presented in 7.1 to 7.4.

Extracting energy while reducing hydroelastic responses of VLFS using a modular raft wec-type attachment

Applied Ocean Research, 2019
This paper presents the use of a modular raft Wave Energy Converter (WEC)-type attachment at the fore edge of a rectangular Very Large Floating Structure (VLFS) for extracting wave energy while reducing hydroelastic responses of the VLFS under wave ...

Experimental investigation of breakwater-type WEC composed of both stationary and floating pontoons

Energy, 2018
Improving the energy conversion performance, especially in shorter waves, may enhance the competitiveness of wave energy converters (WECs) deployed at sea with medium wave conditions.

Optimization of modular raft WEC-type attachment to VLFS and module connections for maximum reduction in hydroelastic response and wave energy production

Ocean Engineering, 2019
This paper presents optimization of modular raft WEC-type attachment to VLFS and connections between floating modules of the VLFS for regular and irregular waves.

An Energy-Maximising MPC Solution to the WEC Control Competition

Volume 10: Ocean Renewable Energy, 2019
The WEC Control Competition is a benchmark devised to compare energy-maximising controllers for wave energy converters, first in simulation, then in real time, using a scale device in a tank test situation.

Parametric design methodology for maximizing energy capture of a bottom-hinged flap-type WEC with medium wave resources

Renewable Energy, 2018
This paper describes a parametric design methodology for maximizing the capture factor (CF) of a bottom-hinged flap-type wave energy converter (BHF-WEC). The general equation for CF is first derived using the damped-harmonic-oscillator model.

WEC-Related Quantum Restrictions

2018
So far, we have been focused on kinematical possibility of time machines or shortcuts, and the Einstein equations played no role in our consideration. As a next step, it is natural to find out whether among such spaces there are solutions of the Einstein equations with realistic matter sources. In general, any necessary property of matter filling these
