Abstract

The application of a constant torque resistance is proposed. The effect of this resistance in addition to that proportional to the angular velocity of the rotation of the driving pulley on various physical quantities of the floatcounterweight wave energy converter has been examined. The main objective of this research is to keep the device stationary in small-amplitude waves frequently present in the real sea condition.
