Vibration control is extremely important for countless mechanical systems. Inerter is a two-
terminal dynamic element proposed in 2002, based on analogy between mechanical system …

The inerter was introduced as a mechanical counterpart to the electrical capacitor,
completing the force-current analogy. This is a one-port, two-terminal device in which the …

Ocean wave energy is a kind of renewable energy with huge reserves, which can play an
important role in the future construction of smart oceans. The low capture efficiency and …

With the development of the economy and society, we are faced with the dual challenges of
energy demands and environmental pollution. As one of the important marine renewable …

Offshore wind turbines (OWTs) are considered vital to the promotion of the development of
renewable energy. Especially, floating OWTs can be deployed over a larger area than …

Abstract Success-History-Based Parameter Adaptation Multi-Objective Differential Evolution
(SHAMODE) has shown excellent performance recently compared to other multi-objective …

Network synthesis has been well developed for the linear suspensions system, but it is not
applicable to nonlinear ones with the mem-inerter. Based on the equivalent inertance …

Wave energy converters (WECs) play a significant role in harnessing the vast potential of
marine renewable energy. To enhance the power extraction of WECs, it is necessary but …

This paper presents an inerter-integrated wave energy converter (WEC) for vibration
mitigation of offshore floating structures. The proposed WEC complies a floating buoy and …

Abstract A Wave Energy Converter (WEC) cannot operate efficiently if left alone floating to
the mercy of the random sea surface. For a WEC to be efficient, its natural frequency should …
