The Finite Element Analysis of the Column of Wave-Power Generating Device

Abstract:

The columnof the wave-power generating device is analysed through theoretical analysis using finite element software. The deformation and stress under maximum wave impact force is calculated by harmonic analysis, the result of which indicates that deformation and stress of the maincolumn, which under huge wave impact calculated by Morison theory, is very small. The stress of the column generated by wave load is less than its material yield strength, which indicates that the safety performance meets the requirements.
