A comparison of approaches integrating power take-off systems into wave energy converters simulations
In the design of a wave energy converter (WEC) in general, one critical aspect is to develop thepower take-off (PTO) system since it has a significant impact on the overall energy harnessing efficiency. There-fore, the modelling of a PTO system should be considered in the simulation of a WEC and carefully tuned with itsparameters to guarantee prediction accuracy. However, it is a challenge to mode
