Novel Nonlinear Pendula Devices for Wave Energy Extraction

The vast wave energy potential has positioned Wave Energy Converters (WEC) as emerging technologies. This study presents a novel coupled two-pendula device that will be able to harvest energy from pendula rotatory motions when harmonically excited from the base by sea waves. The novel concept is des...
