TEAMER: Enhancing and Optimization of MADWEC Performance Through Numerical Simulations

Published by University of Massachusetts - Dartmouth | Department of Energy | Catalog Last Checked: May 18, 2026 at 10:55 PM | Dataset Last Updated: May 18, 2026 at 07:03 PM
This set of data was the result of the TEAMER project led by Adam Keester (Sandia) and Dr. Mohamed Shabara (NREL) on 'enhancing and optimization of maximal asymmetric drag wave energy converter (MADWEC) performance through numerical simulations' in support of research efforts at UMass Dartmouth on developing a wave energy conversion device (MADWEC). This project was conducted and structured around three key technical tasks: (1) parameter search using frequency domain analysis for buoy dimensions and added mass (2) Wave Analysis MIT (WAMIT) support to achieve the added mass predicted in Task 1 with new ballast geometry(s) (3) modify existing WEC-Sim models that represent the highest fidelity model of the MADWEC. This submission includes: - Processed datasets corresponding to Tasks 1-3, and all corresponding subtasks - RFTS award information, biweekly presentations, the testing plan with task and subtask descriptions, and final report - The final TEAMER Report This project is part of the TEAMER RFTS 10 (request for technical support) program.
