Model predictive control for moored ocean current turbines

We investigate the feasibility of model predictive control (MPC) in ocean current turbine (OCT) control. A prediction model is obtained from a nonlinear model of a moored OCT via linearization. Three control inputs are assumed, the electromechanical torque applied to the rotor shaft and two blade pi...
