This Week’s Seminar on Wave Energy Control Co-Design was presented by Prof. John Ringwood on Thursday at 11 AM.
Abstract:
Control co-design (CCD) plays a crucial role in optimizing wave energy systems, linking physical system attributes with energy-maximizing controllers. In this talk, John Ringwood will explore the CCD philosophy and its applications in wave energy, covering topics such as hull geometry, array layout, power take-off parameters, and more. He’ll also discuss computational challenges and the role of mathematical models in CCD performance evaluation.
