A competition for WEC control systems
This paper outlines a proposed open competition which will compare energy-maximising controllers for wave energy converters (WECs), both in simulation, and in real time,using a scale device in a tank test situation. To date, a wide variety of WEC control algorithms have been proposed, but have been difficult to compare due to ...

New Results on Precision Studies of Heavy Vector Boson Physics
We present new results for two important heavy vector boson physics processes: (1), virtual corrections to hard bremsstrahlung which are relevant to precision predictions for the radiative return process in Z boson production at and beyond LEP2 energies ;

Principal wind turbines for a conditional portfolio approach to wind farms
We introduce a measure for estimating the best risk-return relation of power production in wind farms within a given time-lag, conditioned to the velocity field.

The potential of Wave Energy Converters in the Galapagos islands
This study investigates the potential of Wave Energy Converters (WECs) technology in the Galapagos Islands. Despite the region’s high wave energy potential (262 TWh/year of gross potential and 25TWh/year of sustainable potential), the current high cost ...

Passive cyclic pitch control for horizontal axis wind turbines [PDF]
A flexible rotor concept, called the balanced pitch rotor, is described. The system provides passive adjustment of cyclic pitch in response to unbalanced pitching moments across the rotor disk.
