Non-linear Wave Energy Converter Control
Because wave energy conditions are widely variable, a wave energy converter's (WEC) control system should ideally be able to instantaneously adjust to marine conditions to increase power capture and improve survivability. But non-linear WEC control approaches that integrate advanced logic and machine learning approaches need further development and testing to be viable for commercial use.
