Open Source Power Take-Off Simulation for Scale Model Testing of Wave Energy Converters
RECENT PROJECT - April 09, 2016Cascadia Coast Research, in collaboration with the University of Victoria and Aalborg University, Denmark, are making their cutting edge methods for actively controlled physical model wave energy converter power take-offs (PTOs) publicly available. Detailed descriptions and validation of the methods as well as real-time control codes for two separate WECs (1:25, 1:20 scale) will all […]

Simulating 10-year Wave Energy Converter Deployments: Tackling Energy Production Uncertainty
RECENT PROJECT - April 09, 2016Cascadia Coast Research led a project, in partnership with University of Victoria and University of Edinburgh, that produced a publicly available, wave power production data set aimed to address global knowledge gaps in wave energy production uncertainties. The project involved: compiling and preparing 10 years of wave resource data at 3 hr intervals for 4 […]
