Course Objective

The objectives of the lecture are to teach to students the topics and their applications, occurring problems and their solutions of Power Take-off Systems in Maritime Renewable Energy Source- as general engineering characteristics and loads of wind, basic structure and design futures of onshore and offshore wind turbines; the basic kinematics, kinetics and formation mechanisms of waves; classification of the wave energy converters concerning mechanism techniques and power take-off systems and their combination possibilities with onshore and offshore wind turbines; their basic structure and design characteristics; analysis of WECs of the Type 1,2 and 3 regarding power take-off and transmission systems as well thermodynamics; classification and analysis of the stream, tidal stream and osmosis energy converters concerning their mechanism techniques and power take-off as well transmission systems; their basic structures and design futures, selection of materials in production,which students use frequently both during their study as well as during their profession. In lectures, different kinds of constructions and power take off systems of WECs are investigated and modeled in order that students understand subjects and apply his knowledge rapidly.
