  2. 1. Wave Energy Converters : An experimental approach to onshore testing, deployments and offshore monitoring

    Author : Liselotte Ulvgård; Mats Leijon; Jonny Hylander; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wave power; ocean energy; linear generator; measurements; sensors; point absorber; offshore; PTO; force; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Abstract : The wave energy converter (WEC) concept developed at Uppsala University consists of a point absorbing buoy, directly connected to a permanent magnet linear generator. Since 2006, over a dozen full scale WECs have been deployed at the Lysekil Research Site, on the west coast of Sweden. READ MORE

  4. 2. Modelling Wave Power by Equivalent Circuit Theory

    Author : Ling Hai; Mats Leijon; Rafael Waters; Yongliang Zhang; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Wave energy; hydrodynamics; electric circuit; electrical analogy; energy absorption; force; system modelling; Simulink; engineering science; renewable energy; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity;

    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
