| Summary: | The author is a mechanical engineering undergraduate from the School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering of Nanyang Technological University. The objective of the author’s project is to design, model and simulate a prototype device at the Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal for his Final Year Project, with the aim of harvesting the wave energy available, under the supervision of researchers from the company Eri@n.
During the course of the project, the author worked together with Eri@n’s researchers to conceive three designs of prototype, of which, the last one was sent to be fabricated. Due to design flaws and other constraints, the first two designs were deemed to be not feasible for fabrication. However, the final design was made with numerous features that were included after considerations that were identified during the first two designs.
Due to time constraint, the author was not able to carry out tests and experimentation on the prototype as it was still under fabrication when the period of the project came to an end. |
