This project explores the use of parametric resonance in wave energy converters to enhance energy conversion efficiency. By developing advanced control strategies and a prototype, it aims to improve the understanding and application of this phenomenon in marine energy systems.
To date, no marine system, let alone wave energy device, has attempted to exploit parametric resonance as an assistive phenomenon. A number of wave energy researchers have observed the phenomenon and sought to dampen it, but the concept of harnessing the power transferred from (typically) heave to (typically) pitch/roll has not been considered.
This fellowship aims to control the parametric resonance of WEC dynamics to improve energy conversion efficiency, based on a 1/20 scale prototype.
