The present invention relates to a damper for damping the reactionary motion of a wave energy conversion device (1) to wave motion, comprising a damping energy absorber (7) having a reversible non-linear stress-strain response, arranged to damp the reactionary motion of the WEC. According to a first aspect, there is provided a damping structure (2) for a wave energy conversion device (1). The structure comprises a fixed member (S), and a damping member (7) having a reversible non-linear stress-strain response. The damping member (7) is connectable between the fixed member (6) and a moveable member or float (3) of a wave energy conversion device (1). The invention also relates to a wave energy conversion device (1).
La présente invention concerne un amortisseur destiné à amortir le mouvement réactionnaire d'un dispositif de conversion de l'énergie des vagues (1) en un mouvement de vague, qui comprend un absorbeur d'énergie d'amortissement (7) ayant une réponse tension/allongement non linéaire réversible, prévu afin d'amortir le mouvement réactionnaire du convertisseur de l'énergie des vagues. Selon un premier aspect, est prévue une structure d'amortissement (2) destinée à un dispositif de conversion de l'énergie des vagues (1). La structure comprend un élément fixe (S), et un élément d'amortissement (7) ayant une réponse tension/allongement non linéaire réversible. L'élément d'amortissement (7) peut être relié entre l'élément fixe (6) et un élément mobile ou un flotteur (3) d'un dispositif de conversion de l'énergie des vagues (1). L'invention concerne également un dispositif de conversion de l'énergie des vagues (1).
