This paper investigates the performance of a bistable snap-through power take-off (PTO) operating inside a submerged wave energy converter (WEC). The equation of motion of the surging WEC is derived in the time domain using the Euler–Lagrange equations. The dynamic response of the WEC in regular wav...
