This paper proposes a design and modeling of an innovative wave energy converter using Dielectric electro active polymer (DEAP). Firstly, an accurate model of conventional DEAP generator is investigated and validated under a specific range of ocean waves. Then, a structure design of an antagonistic DEAP generator so-called energy capture unit (ECU), which consists of two DEAPs in antagonistic connection mode to increase harvested energy efficiency, is modeled and validated by experimental data. A new design of WECs is then developed with array of ECUs to increase the output energy. In addition, by using the linear potential wave theory, the hydrodynamic forces are calculated under regular wave conditions. Consequently, a complete analytical model of the proposed WECs using multiple ECUs under hydrodynamic behavior is then obtained to investigate the performance of energy conversion. Finally, based on the developed analytical model, the stretch ratio known as an important factor to efficiency and output power is investigated under the influence of the floating buoy’s mass. Then, the resonance behavior of the WECs with a typical wave frequency can be tuned by optimizing the floating’s mass to increase the degree of utilization of the device. The simulation results indicate that the efficiency of wave energy converter can be up to 25% thanks to resonance behavior.

Dielectric electro-active polymers (DEAP) have been attracted for the energy harvesting application due to its low cost, lightweight and flexible deformation capability. This paper presents a validated model and experimental investigation on energy conversion of a typical DEAP generator. Firstly, a dynamics model based on Mooney-Rivlin proposition is developed to describe the strain – force relationship of DEAP material. Then, the effect of charging voltages and energy conversion are also taken into account. In addition, identification processes are done separately for stretching and relaxing strokes using an adaptive PSO scheme to find best material parameters for the model. This makes the model be available to describe the sinusoidal strain forms in practical conditions. The validated model is then employed in investigating input mechanical energy, return energy and conversion energy for the DEAP generator. Experimental evaluations show that the developed model can describe the behavior of DEAP material accurately. Finally, analyses based on the energy conversion demonstrate the abilities of DEAP material as wave energy converter.
