摘要： A method and device (100) for generating electricity from ocean waves. The device (100) includes at least one magnetostrictive element (106) and one or more electrically conductive coils or circuits (112). When the magnetostrictive element (106) is deployed in a body of water (102), the motion of the body of water (102), including wave motion, causes changes in the strain of the magnetostrictive element (106). The electrically conductive coil or circuit (112) is within the vicinity of the magnetostrictive element (106). A corresponding change in magnetic field around the magnetostrictive element (106) generates an electric voltage and/or electric current in the electrically conductive coil or circuit (112).

The primary flux paths include at least one bias flux path configured to exhibit a change in a flux property in response to a change in an external load applied to the bias flux path. The secondary flux path is magnetically coupled to the primary flux paths. The secondary flux path is configured to experience alternating flux directions in response to the change in the flux property of the bias flux path. Electrical energy can be induced in a conductor as a result of the alternating flux direction in the secondary flux path.

摘要： Apparatuses and associated methods for converting wave energy into electrical energy are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a surface-based buoy can be connected to a magnetostrictive element that changes its output voltage when subjected to the in tension. To keep the heave plate under tension, a tether with a heave plate can be attached to the magnetostrictive element. Since the magnetostrictive element can be sensitive to zero tension (e.g., a slack in the tether) followed by a sudden increase in the tension, in at least some embodiments it is preferred to keep the magnetostrictive element tensioned at all times. In some embodiments of the present technology, an inertia-dominated heave plate may be designed to sink faster than the buoy falls in the trough of the wave, therefore keeping the tether tensioned at all times. For example, the design (e.g., mass, diameter, height) of the heave plate can be such that the static force of gravity S exceeds a sum of the drag D and inertia / under expected wave conditions.
