Experimental and CFD Assessment of Harmonic Characteristics of Point-Absorber Wave-Energy Converters with Nonlinear Power Take-Off System

The wave-energy excitation of point absorbers is highly associated with their resonant movement, and harmonic characteristics are of increasing concern in affecting resonance. However, the commonly used linearized power take-off (PTO) systems underestimate the impact of harmonics. The purpose of thi...
