4. Modelling Wave Power by Equivalent Circuit Theory
Abstract : The motion of ocean waves can be captured and converted into usable electricity. This indicates that wave power has the potential to supply electricity to grids like wind or solar power. A point absorbing wave energy converter (WEC) system has been developed for power production at Uppsala University. READ MORE
