European wave energy pilot plant on the island of Pico, Azores, Portugal. It is a prototype plant of oscillating-water-column type. The first full-sized wave power plant designed and built to be permanently connected to an electrical grid (Pico island grid). The basic studies, development, design, construction and monitoring were carried out within the framework of four JOULE contracts (1992-2002), coordinated by IST. The plant consists basically of: one bottom-standing concrete airchamber, inside horizontal dimensions 12mx12m; one air turbine of Wells type, rated power 500 kW; several air-flow valves; one variable-speed electrical generator; power electronics equipment; conventional electrical equipment; control equipment; monitoring equipment. The plant is owned jointly by Electricidade dos Açores SA and by Electricidade de Portugal SA, and became operational in October 1999. In 2000-01 some modifications were introduced into the plant, namely in the layout of the electrical equipment and in the guide-vane system of the turbine. A new set of turbine rotor blades was designed and manufactured in 1999-2001. 12. Variable Pitch Turbine and High Speed Valve to be installed in the Azores wave power plant. These prototypes have been developed and constructed within the framework of a JOULE contract (1996-99) co-ordinated by the University of Edinburgh, having IST as the other major partner. Both units are the first prototypes of their kind. The turbine (rated 500 kW), generator and air valve are to be installed in the Azores plant, in parallel with the existing Wells turbo-generator set (see above). The air valve will enable the plant to be phase-controlled. These prototypes were tested at IST in 2000-01. 13. Unmanned aircraft for aerial reconnaissance. A 1:2-scale model was designed, built and tested, as a joint project involving Instituto Superior Técnico and OGMAPortuguese Aeronautical Industry. The model is being used to test, in flight, monitoring equipment and instrumentation, including data and image acquisition system, and image transmission. The design of the full-scale prototype is being finalized, after extensive testing of the model 14. The aerodynamic design of the ARMOR X7 UAV has been concluded and frozen; the engineering design of the prototype is being handed to OGMA for construction. Work then focussed on Micro Air Vehicle configurations starting with a fundamental assessment of aerodynamic interference effects among neighbouring lifting components both in analytical and in numerical terms. 15. Active Aeroelastic Aircraft Demonstrator, Collaboration: Idmec-Academia Da Força Aérea, Sintra 16. This research program has resulted in the design, analysis, fabrication, and testing of a RPV utilizing piezoelectric actuators and sensors as well as ailerons to control its aeroelastic response. The results of these tests indicate that a RPV wing utilizing 170 skins as the structural element with piezos located only on one face of each of the skins can be effectively controlled. Moreover, the control authority and subsequent dynamic aeroelastic amplitude reduction in the wing is greater than that attainable using conventional aerodynamic control surfaces. Passive shunting has allowed fine-tuning and it has provided a good solution to improve the RPV flight safety, in case of adaptive control system malfunction, if the mission situation assessment is capable of clearly identify the RPV flight envelope worst-case scenarios. 17. Adaptive Undersea Vehicle Collaboration: Idmec-University Of Victoria, Canadá: Current autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are almost exclusively propeller driven designs, which must inherently be optimized for a particular speed and which must sacrifice low speed manoeuvrability for cruising efficiency. Recently, biomimetic approaches to underwater vehicle propulsion have illuminated the exciting possibilities for performance improvements made possible by emulating fish motion. In particular, a number of test vehicles indicate that the carangiform swimming mode employed by highly developed species of fish such as the Bluefin tuna offers both a more efficient propulsion mechanism than propellers, in addition to the ability to perform quick manoeuvring. The research is focusing on application of adaptive structure technology to the challenging problem of emulating fish propulsion. The underwater vehicle design presented in this report will provide a preliminary test vehicle that will enable validation of the adaptive structure approach to this area, and highlight some of the issues that will be addressed in future work to optimize both the design and swimming parameters. 18.
