Abstract

A new concept has been proposed to contribute in the development of national ocean renewable energy program by the adoption of articulated tower structure for harvesting the ocean wave energy. Therefore the new concept is designated as the articulated tower for ocean wave energy converter, abbreviated as AT-OWEC. In the meantime, the establishment of AT-OWEC has come to the stage of the initial physical modelling and preparation of experimental study. This is commenced by the design of AT-OWEC main structure physical model by referring to the full scale structure, involving the rules of geometrical, kinematical and dynamical similarities. Next is the design of instrumentation for motion data measurement and acquisition, including necessary calibrations. This is followed by the plan of experimental work at the hydrodynamics laboratory and the expected data to be gathered. Discussion will then be concluded by putting forward results of numerical modelling on AT-OWEC dynamic behaviors prepared for comparison with future experimental data.
