Abstract:

Abstract Oscillating Water Column systems (OWC) have been in the spotlight in the last 20 years since these devices are considered one of the most promising devices among wave energy technology. These systems produce electricity by means a generator driven by a turbine, which takes advantage of the bidirectional flow created by the OWC itself. Among these turbines suitable for bidirectional flows, it is possible to find radial impulse turbines, which are the focus of this work. Traditionally, the radial impulse turbines have shown lower efficiencies than their competitors. However, the radial

Abstract:

The increasing population density and the industrial expansion significantly affect the availability of land. In this context, the high modularity of Very Large Floating Structures (VLFSs) may indeed represent a promising alternative for multipurpose use. Furthermore, the interest for the sea as a source of renewable marine energy, particularly for wave energy, has tremendously increased in the last decade and years. Among the large diversity of Wave Energy Converters (WECs), the Oscillating Water Column (OWC) is one of the most promising concept. Moreover, when an OWC is incorporated in a VLF

Abstract:

This paper describes potential of PTO (Power Take-Off) and the damper effect of motion in a large scale pontoon type floating structure on which lots of oscillating water column (OWC) type wave energy convertors (WEC) are installed. It is enable to use upper space for utilizing marine renewable energy such as wind power, tidal power, wave power generation farm using large pontoon structure. Due to the concept, it should reduce cost of maintenance as well. For investigation of PTO and elastic motion behaviours of large floating structures, we calculated three types of models on which OWC device

Abstract:

Abstract Oscillating water column (OWC) type wave energy converters (WECs) have been researched and developed. OWC WECs are relatively friendly to maintain them in operation because all of mechanical units are set above a sea water surface. In addition, a feature of an OWC device is similar to an air dumper system. Thus, it should be possible not only to harvest wave energy but also to reduce motion of a floating system at the same time. As well as WEC system should be used with other ocean renewable energies as a combined system. This paper describes hydrodynamic characteristics of OWC device

Abstract:

Very Large Floating Structures, so-called Mega-Floats, are the kind of social infrastructures. They are generally expected to keep their integrity for a long period, for example, more than 100 years. So, it is necessary to develop Long-Term Integrity Prediction and Diagnosis System to diagnose the soundness of Mega-Floats. In the present study, we paid our attention to dolphin-fender type mooring devices that pontoon type VLFS are equipped with. As a part of Long-Term Integrity Prediction and Diagnosis System, we developed a long-term integrity prediction code (Cumulative Fatigue Damage Predic
