Nonlinear Model for Sub- and Superharmonic Motions of a MDOF Moored Structure, Part 1—System Identification
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this first part of a two-part study, the general nonlinear system identification methodology developed earlier by the authors for a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system using the reverse-mu ...
Nonlinear Model for Sub- and Superharmonic Motions of a MDOF Moored Structure, Part 2—Sensitivity Analysis and Comparison
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The nonlinear R-MI/SO system identification procedure and the parameters of the MDOF system identified in Part 1 are examined in detail in this paper. A parametric study is conducted and the ...
Experimental Force Characterization and Numerical Modeling of a Taut-Moored Dual-Body Wave Energy Conversion System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an innovative modeling technique that combines experimental force measurements from a full scale linear generator with a coupled model of a two body, moored floating system ...
Estimating the Energy Production Capacity of a Taut-Moored Dual-Body Wave Energy Conversion System Using Numerical Modeling and Physical Testing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an innovative technique for evaluating the performance of direct-drive power take-off systems for wave energy devices using simulated force and velocity profiles. The performance ...
Numerical Simulations of Wave Generation by a Vertical Plunger Using RANS and SPH Models
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The water wave generation by a freely falling rigid body is examined in this paper. Two different two-dimensional numerical approaches have been utilized to simulate the time histories of fluid motion, free surface ...
