Abstract
Recent developments in wave energy converter (WEC) control include robust control strategies, which admit a level of uncertainty in the model
description. Then, for the application of such control
methods, some knowledge of the uncertainty bounds is
initially required. As recently shown in the literature,
some approaches for uncertainty quantification can lead
to scenarios where, due to uncertainty quantification,
the passivity of the WEC model is not guaranteed
and, consequently, the optimisation required to capture
most of the available energy cannot be successfully
performed. Such approaches can generate significant
performance losses. Thus, in this study, a passivisation
methodology to extend the applicability of spectral
control approaches is presented. The benefit of the
presented approach, relative to previous results, is
shown with an application case.
