Effective Mooring Rope Tension in Mechanical and Hydraulic Power Take-Off of Wave Energy Converter

The InWave wave energy converter (WEC), which is three-tether WEC type, absorbs wave energy via moored cylindrical buoys with three ropes connected to a terrestrial power take-off (PTO) through a subsea pulley. In this study, a simulation study was conducted to select a suitable PTO when designing a...
