Bionic Adaptive Stretchable Materials for WEC (BASM-WEC)

Abstract

Wave Energy Converters (WECs) transform the kinetic and/or potential energy of ocean waves into electricity. Among different types of WECs technologies, none of them achieves economic competitiveness. The main challenges of commercialisation of existing WECs arise from the devices' low-performance efficiency and the WEC system's vulnerability under harsh sea conditions. Inspired by aquatic animals' flexible body and fins, a range of adaptive, flexible materials have attracted attention in WEC development in the past decade. The specific characteristic of such material is that its shape deforms adapting to the loading applied to it. There are several benefits using a flexible material as part of WEC structures.

A multidisciplinary team of researchers from the University of Strathclyde in collaboration with National Manufacturing Institute Scotland in Lightweight Manufacturing Centre (NMIS-LMC) will develop a methodology to address different challenges regarding design and manufacturing of Bionic Adaptive Stretchable Materials for WEC (BASM-WEC). This will be supported by industry partner and research institution, e.g. Wave-venture, ORE Catapult Wave & Tidal Energy Sector, National Subsea Research Initiative in UK, National Ocean Technology Centre in China, and SBM Offshore based in France.

To achieve the main objectives, this project will develop a hydro-elastic analysis tool based on advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics techniques to provide a robust analysis method for prescribing the detailed materials specification required by the desired WEC functionalities and allow the benchmarking of the lower-order rapid models developed in parallel for device optimization. Tailoring of material functions and performance will be achieved through the concept of both composite and hybrid materials. The former involves modifying flexible parent materials with secondary addition of dissimilar materials (e.g. functional fillers and fibres), and the latter involves developing a multi-layered structure with each layer serving different functions. Together, these techniques will guide new material development through fine-tuning material properties by targeted material selection and modification. The complex physics and effect of flexible material will be crosschecked by simulation method and laboratory testing at the small scale device level, providing new insight. Knowledge of complex coupled hydro-elastic models will be beneficial to general offshore renewable energy.
 
Description The main aim of this project is to develop an analysis and laboratory testing integrity toolbox to reliably design, analyze, and process state-of-the-art adaptive stretchable materials and structures applicable to Wave Energy Converters (WECs). To achieve this goal, we have developed an FSI (Fluid-Structure Interaction) analysis tool for flexible wave energy converters based on CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and FEA (Finite Element Analysis) methods, and applied it to simulations of various types of flexible wave energy converters. Additionally, to optimize the performance of flexible WECs, we have developed structured sheet materials with different patterns. Here, we highlight our two main achievements:

FSI Analysis Tool: With this tool, we can predict the complex fluid-structure interaction responses of flexible WECs, taking into account the nonlinear properties of flexible materials, mooring lines, and influences such as 6 Degrees of Freedom (6DoF). This is of significant importance for the development and optimization of flexible WECs.

Structured Sheet Materials: Through material characterization tests and numerical simulations, we have discovered that structured sheet materials have great potential to enhance the performance of flexible WECs. The stiffness of these materials increases with stress, meaning they can undergo larger deformations under smaller stresses, thereby increasing the power output of flexible WECs. At higher stresses, their smaller deformations reduce the risk of structural failure due to excessive deformation.
Exploitation Route Academically, these findings can be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications, conferences, and partnerships with research institutions focusing on renewable energy and materials science. This will facilitate further scholarly investigation and refinement of the technologies, contributing to the academic body of knowledge.

Non-academically, the practical applications of these outcomes can be pursued by collaborating with industry stakeholders, such as renewable energy companies, especially those specializing in Wave Energy Converters (WECs). The FSI Analysis Tool offers a valuable resource for these companies in designing and optimizing flexible WECs, making it a prime candidate for licensing agreements or joint development projects. Similarly, the Structured Sheet Materials, with their enhanced performance characteristics, present a compelling opportunity for manufacturing partnerships aimed at producing next-generation WECs.

By engaging with both sectors, the research can achieve a broad impact, advancing the state of the art in WEC technology and contributing to the sustainable energy landscape. Potential collaborators could include academic research teams in engineering and materials science departments, as well as renewable energy firms and materials manufacturers looking to innovate their product offerings.

Title Experimental and numerical study of flexible wave energy converters (WEC) 
Description Defining the functional specification for the Oscillating Water Column (OWC) is considered one of the main objectives of the structural integrity part of this project. This aim can be achieved using optimisation analysis combined with finite element simulations. On the other hand, various experiments have been carried out on the OWC using the water tank test and dry test rig to enhance its durability and efficiency. Moreover, the experimental findings are combined with finite element analysis and optimisation techniques to establish a precise hyperelastic model for the membrane component. This approach, known as inverse material characterisation, involves generating an accurate hyperelastic model for the elastomer part of the structure based on a similar deformation mode.

Impact Preparing a functional specification for a wave energy converter can provide a roadmap for the design, development, and testing of the device, which can help to ensure that it performs as expected and meets the desired outcomes. On the other hand, conducting laboratory tests offers several advantages, including improving the durability and efficiency of the OWC, validating the numerical simulation, and developing a precise hyperelastic model for the device's elastomer component. This optimisation procedure aids in discovering a more effective model for the membrane part of the structure, leading to enhanced accuracy of the numerical simulation. 
 
Title High-resolution numerical analysis tool for flexible wave energy converters 
Description Based on computational fluid dynamics and three-dimensional finite element methods, a high-fidelity numerical simulation tool for flexible wave energy converters (WEC) has been developed. The flexible deformation of structure is coped with an open-source three-dimensional (3D) finite element code CalculiX. The fluid flow around the WEC is solved by a two-phase CFD solver [3] developed based on OpenFOAM. The two-way coupling between OpenFOAM and CalculiX is achieved by using preCICE (precise Code Interaction Coupling Environment), which is a multi-physics code coupling tool. In addition, six-degree-of-freedom module is added into the tool to account for the influence of the motions on the performance of the flexible WECs. We are continuously improving the numerical analysis tool, for the latest progress please refer to the project website: https://basm-wec.org/

Title Manufacturing of new materials using structured membranes in a sandwich type configuration 
Description This new method contributes to implementing active materials in flexible WEC structures. The material changes the mechanical response based on the amount of deformation produced by the wave conditions. The concept implements different types of patterns on elastomeric membranes where the geometry of the patterns is modified as the membrane is deformed, leading to an alignment of the pattern with the load. As the pattern is aligned, the stiffness of the structure increases withstanding stronger wave conditions. On the other hand, when the wave conditions are mild the pattern has more degrees of freedom and the structure can adapt better to the waves. The concept will increase the survivability of the device and energy efficiency through a better distribution of the stiffness in the structure based on the wave conditions. We are continuously improving the material development, for the latest progress please refer to the project website: https://basm-wec.org/
