Once upon a time, if you wanted to generate some waveforms, you needed to buy an expensive off-the-shelf function generator or whip up a big pile of analog electronics. Not so today, when you can grab ...

If you find yourself in the Australian port city of Albany and spot a humongous yellow machine bobbing in the waves of King George Sound, don't be alarmed. It's just a generator prototype making a ...

Ocean waves could be an enormous source of power for the grid: In the U.S., the motion of waves along coastlines could generate as much as 1.4 trillion kilowatt-hours a year, or around a third of the ...

Swedish company NoviOcean has tested a third-gen prototype of its combination wind/solar/wave energy platform, a floating platform rated for up to 1 megawatt of consistent clean energy around the ...

Scientists have made efforts to advance a way to convert low-frequency mechanical energy from ocean waves into electricity. Their approach focuses on self-powered ocean grids, distributed marine IoT, ...

Construction of the first full-scale breakwater system for harbors that doubles as a wave-based energy generator has begun in Boulogne-sur-Mer, northern France. The project is a collaborative effort ...

(PhysOrg.com) -- Researchers at Michigan State University have built a prototype, based on the research first released in 2009, of the Wave Disk Generator -- an engine that does not have pistons, ...
