This work presents an analysis of an ocean wave energy harvesting system. This system is composed of a direct current (DC) power generator attached at the middle-top of a floating platform. A pendulum is connected to the ...

Purpose: We investigated the non-linear dynamic behavior of a system for energy production using ocean wave motion. The compound consists of a linear electromagnetic system coupled to a float to move under the action of ...

When estimating significant wave height and wave power, it is regularly assumed 4 for the spectral estimate factor. It means considering a narrowband wave spectrum. That approach is accurate enough when the spectral broadness ...

Technologies for converting wave energy to electricity are not mature yet. It is necessary to understand the characteristics and potential of the wave climate of the local area where wave energy converters will be installed. ...

The ocean is a perpetual source of energy that has being studied for the last decades in order to convert the energy from the waves and tides into electricity, through a clean process. So far, several devices have been ...

Renewable energies are told to be the future of energy generation for the world; nowadays, the wind sector is the one with more development in technology. However, there are two big sources of energy that have not been ...

Renewable sources of energy generation grow exponentially in that they are thin, coupled with oil, significantly growing environmental legislation, as well as political awareness, which is being produced, especially in ...

Research into renewable energy is an active field of research, with photovoltaic and wind being the most representative technologies. A promising renewable energy source is Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC), based on ...
