Data from Advanced Laboratory and Field Arrays (ALFA) Non-linear Ocean Waves and Power Take-Off (PTO). Control Strategy project conducted at the O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory (HWRL) at Oregon State University in 2019/2020. Contains two zip files (ALFANL.zip, ALFANL2.zip) from two phases of testing with data in engineering units and a report detailing the testing. This data collected by HWRL. A readme file in the docs folder explains the data collection and format. Six zip files (foswec-1 to foswec-6) data recorded by the Floating Oscillating Surge Wave Energy Converter (FOSWEC). Data organized by date and time and report describes data. A test report (ALFA Non-linear Ocean Waves Test Report.docx) details the experiments and data recording.
