Parametric study on power capture performance of an adaptive bistable point absorber wave energy converter in irregular waves

The power capture performance of an adaptive bistable point absorber wave energy converter (WEC) in irregular waves is investigated in this paper. Based on the linear potential flow theory and Cummins equations, the equation of motion for the WEC is established in time domain. Then a parametric stud...
