NWEI Azura RTI 1/20th Model Validation Wave Tank Test Data

Data from the 1/20th wave tank test of the RTI model. Northwest Energy Innovations (NWEI) has licensed intellectual property from RTI, and modified the PTO and retested the 1/20th RTI model that was tested as part of the Wave Energy Prize. The goal of the test was to validate NWEI's simulation models of the model. The test occurred at the University of Maine in Orono (UMO).
