description

The exploitation of sea wave opens new horizon for suppling small islanded communities. With this goal the paper propones a prototypical device for the utilization of sea wave along the coastline. The device is based on a mechanical motion conversion, from an alternative rotation into unidirectional rotation in order to run commercial generators. First evaluations are here reported, demonstrating the feasibility of this solution.
