On-site continuous and energy-autonomous wireless sensor nodes are highly desirable for
the sustainable monitoring of the ocean environment. In this work, a wake galloping …

The oscillating water column (OWC) is a more common type of wave energy converter
(WEC) that has been the subject of the study and development for several decades. Multi …

Wells turbine is widely used to convert wave energy into mechanical energy, although it
suffers from a narrow operating range, low power output, and low efficiency. The study of the …

A single wave energy converter (WEC) produces a low and fluctuating power, and the use of
a permanent magnet linear generator (PMLG) as an electric power take-off unit can make …

In this study, the maximum power extraction condition for a direct-drive wave energy
converter in irregular waves in the time domain was proven and described using the …

The increased demand for clean renewable sources of electricity has fostered strong growth
in wave energy development in recent years. This led to greater understanding of the …

This paper presents event-triggered nonlinear controllers for oscillating water column (OWC)
ocean wave energy plant. The study is based on event-triggered backstepping controller (ET …

This paper presents a model predictive current control (MPCC) for three-phase four-switch
converters (TPFSC) connected to surface permanent magnet synchronous generators …

A Wells turbine is an axial-flow turbine consisting of a rotor usually with symmetric
(uncambered) blades staggered at a 90 degree angle relative to the machine's axis. This …

The incorporation of the full dynamics of the different conversion stages of wave energy
converters (WECs), from ocean waves to the electricity grid, is essential for a realistic …
