A New Design Method for Converting Wave Energy to Electricity

Article Preview

Abstract:

Sustainable energy generation is becoming increasingly important. Our oceans are largely an untapped source of energy. This paper presents an innovative design method for converting the linear motion of ocean waves into electricity energy. The design principle and the construction details have been presented.
