Laboratory Upgrade Point Absorber (LUPA) WEC-Sim Model with MoorDyn Moorings
WEC-Sim and MoorDyn model of the Laboratory Upgrade Point Absorber (LUPA). This is a stable LUPA configuration with three mooring lines. This model is 1/20 scale, optimized for the O.H. Hinsdale Wave Lab at Oregon State University. LUPA is an open-source two-body point absorber. More information on LUPA can be found in the MHKDR database or via Tethys' Signature Projects page. This model of LUPA adds Moordyn functionality for more accurate mooring predictions and uses a more stable, updated version of LUPA's current physical configuration.
NOTE: This model is for WEC-Sim Version 6.0. A recent update of WEC-Sim has changed some functionality of MoorDyn such that this model will not work with WEC-Sim Version 6.1. A new version of this model will be uploaded for WEC-Sim Version 6.1 at a later date.
