| Research Abstract |
From the results of present research, the characteristic of power generation output of wave power generation device using dielectric elastomer (artificial muscle) was hardly dependent on the frequency of sea wave and when the artificial muscle changed on every frequency, it is clarified that the power generation output according to it is obtained. From the present results, it was understood that the present device is generated even in the calm sea of wave unlike conventional wave power generation device. Namely, the prospect of the utilization in the case of using this device as a power generator of auxiliary electric power, such as a fishing port and a marina, and commercialization became clear.
