This report has been prepared under the contract agreement between Aalborg Universitet and Storper Innovation ApS. The report has been written by Lucia Margheritini (lm@civil.aau.dk) who is also responsible for the data analysis. This report is the continuation of the previous report “Rolling Cylinder Phase 1: proof of concept and first optimization”, DCE report 115, ISSN 1901-726X, and it is recommended that the two are consulted together as they were firstly agreed to be in one document. The present report aims at estimate the efficiency of the Rolling Cylinder long model (previously optimized), by mean of physical tests in irregular waves. Several difficulties have been encountered during the testing, the biggest of witch being the extremely unfriendly torque measuring system.
