This work describes a system for off-shore power generation based on a Wave Energy Converter (WEC) called Seaspoon coupled to a microturbine. The paper reports the performance of the WEC under the action of regular sinusoidal waves investigated with numerical fluid dynamic simulation; such a converter can be coupled to an air microturbine-driven microgenerator into a system for off-shore energy generation...
The next generation of Autonomous Surface Vessels (ASV) will be optimized for optimum performance at sea. The design of an innovative unconventional SWATH-ASV family, patented by the author and under further investigation at the MIT innovative Ship design lab is described in its main features. The new unconventional design of the hull is the key to superior resistance, powering and seakeeping performance...
