Coupled dynamics of a flapping foil wave powered vessel
Wave propelled vessels utilize submerged flapping foils to convert wave energy directly into propulsion. This works by coupling the response of foils operating in a wavy flow with the flapping motion driven by the wave-induced hull motions. For platforms that are solely propelled using this method t...
