Variance Constrained cyclic blade control of moored ocean current turbines

A nonlinear model of a moored ocean current turbine (OCT) is described and linearized around a nominal operating condition. Cyclic blade pitch control is introduced, in addition to the electromechanical rotor torque, to help regulate the OCT position, orientation, and rotor angular speed when distur...

Description
Summary:A nonlinear model of a moored ocean current turbine (OCT) is described and linearized around a nominal operating condition. Cyclic blade pitch control is introduced, in addition to the electromechanical rotor torque, to help regulate the OCT position, orientation, and rotor angular speed when disturbed from the nominal operating condition. Output Variance Constrained (OVC) control is investigated for flight control system design.
