Abstract
Recent literature proposes a novel Active Mechanical Motion Rectifier (AMMR) based power take-off system. The
primary objective of mechanical rectification in wave energy
conversion schemes is to ensure controlled unidirectional rotation
speed in the generator, aiming to mitigate losses caused by low
rotational speed and enhance overall system efficiency. Despite
the promising potential of this proposal, ensuring the stability
and controllability of the entire system remains an unresolved
challenge. In that regard, this work addresses the former issue
by providing a preliminary assessment of the stability of a flap
operating with the proposed AMMR-based power take-off. The
studies conducted in this work set the fundamental basis to
facilitate the design of an effective controller for this novel power
take-off system. The obtained results are validated through insilico evaluations, modelling the system as piecewise linear.
