Resumo(s)
The Archimedes Wave Swing (AWS) is a a fully submerged Wave Energy Converter (WEC), that is to say, a device that converts the kinetic energy of sea waves into electricity. A first prototype of the AWS has already been built and tested. This paper presents simulation results of the performance of several control strategies applied to this device, including PID control, reactive control, phase and amplitude control, latching control, feedback linearisation control, internal model control, switching control, and combinations thereof. Linear, white-box nonlinear, and neural network models were employed. Significant (above threefold) increases in yearly energy production were found to be possible with properly designed control strategies.
