LiftWEC Journal Publication, Publication / By

Abstract: We present a new analytical model from which a model-based controller can be derived for a cyclorotor-based wave energy converter (WEC). Few cyclorotor-based WEC concepts and models have previously been studied and only one control strategy for the entire wave cancellation has been tested. Our model is derived for a horizontal cyclorotor with N …

LiftWEC Journal Publication, Publication / By

Abstract: This review studies some of the existing ideas which create a fundamentally new direction for wave energy converter (WEC) development, obtaining energy from the elliptical motion of particles in water waves using a rotor. The review focuses on three main aspects of rotor-based WECs: experimental study of the developed prototypes, derivation and development of …
