In order to generate a public data set that can be used to validate Wave Energy Converter (WEC) numerical codes, such as WEC-Sim, Sandia National Laboratories led an experimental testing campaign of a 1:33 scale Floating Oscillating Surge Wave Energy Converter (FOSWEC) in the Directional Wave Basin at Oregon State University's Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory. Testing was performed in two phases; Phase 1 testing was completed in November - December 2015, and Phase 2 testing was completed in May - June 2016. This experimental testing report details the selection and design of a FOSWEC, experimental setup and tests, and overview of the resulting dataset from Phase 1 and Phase 2 testing.

This dataset contains data recordings generated during Year 3 of a DOE-funded project focused on the co-design of marine energy converters and autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) docking and recharging systems. Data was collected during experimental testing at the O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory and support foundational research aimed at advancing coupled Wave Energy Converter (WEC)-AUV systems for marine energy applications. This release builds on and supplements data provided in the previously submitted Year 3 project software and data submission from this project, linked below. This dataset includes measurements of wave elevation, water pressure, dock motion, load on a dock, and load on a fixed Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV). Additionally, a testing log is provided including testing logs and summary of the five conditions tested: -(1) regular and random waves -(2) waves with dock motions -(3) multi-sine waves -(4) multi-sine dock motions -(5) multi-sine waves with dock motions.

The data is the zonal component of ocean surface currents derived from High Frequency Radio-derived measurements, with missing values filled in by a normal model. THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL PRODUCT: intended strictly for scientific evaluation by professional marine scientists.

The Laboratory Upgrade Point Absorber (LUPA) is an open-source wave energy converter designed and tested by Oregon State University. The computer-aided design (CAD) files are provided here in two forms: the original SOLIDWORKS (2024) model as "LUPA SOLIDWORKS.zip" and as a STEP file "LUPA-A1000.step". The bill of materials is provided as an Excel file with assemblies (LUPA-Axxx), part numbers (LUPA-Axxx-Pyyy), part descriptions, manufacturers, and manufacturer part numbers. An engineering drawing is provided as a PDF of the basic float and spar geometries and mass properties. This comprehensive CAD model represents LUPA as it was deployed in Fall 2023 testing (project name: TEAMERLUPA2) at the O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory. The mass properties, including mass, center of gravity, and moments of inertia, have been overridden for some parts and assemblies to match the physical device properties as determined from experiments. This appears as "overridden by user" when viewing mass properties in SOLIDWORKS. The LUPA-A1000.SLDASM file from the LUPA SOLIDWORKS.zip folder is the topmost assembly; open this file to see the entire model as one assembly. This model is the second published CAD model of LUPA. The first is linked below as Version 1. This second model has the following engineering changes: moved spar flotation up, added more mass to the heave plate, added the MiniDAQ to the float, and reduced the weight of the PTO pulleys. The net effect of these changes makes LUPA more hydrodynamically stable than the first version. See "PMEC Page" and the "Signature Project Page" resources below for more information on LUPA. This testing was funded by TEAMER RTFS 7. Data from this testing can be found on MHKDR at the links below.

Final report on a TEAMER RFTS 2 (request for technical support) study undertaken by Alden Research Laboratory for the Mono-radial turbine invented by John Clark Hanna DBA: Hanna Wave Energy Primary Drives. The study is a predictive numerical and CFD (computational fluid dynamics) report of the mentioned Hanna Mono-Radial Turbine. The device is an impulse-type mono-radial air turbine PTO for wave energy conversion. The turbine is self-rectified, meaning that it spins in one direction only while capturing the bi-directional air flows developed within an OWC (Oscillating Water Column) system.
