RM3 Wave Tank Validation Model

An approximately 1/75th scale point absorber wave energy absorber was built to validate the testing systems of a 16k gallon single paddle wave tank. The model was build based on the RM3 design and incorporated a linear position sensor, a force transducer, and wetness detection sensors. The data set also includes motion tracking data of the device's two bodies acquired from 4x Qualisys cameras. The tank wave spectrum is measured by 4 ultrasonic water height sensors.
